The Cruise Ship Lost My Daughter by Morgan Mayer

First, I would like to thank Net Galley for providing me with the opportunity to read this book before its publishing date!

I personally really enjoyed this story. The mystery and suspense interwoven throughout the story, along with just the overall cuteness of the elderly couple, Sheila and Shane McShane, who are on the search for the missing daughter, really drew me in and kept me involved in the story.

Shanna, a very talented art restorer, has been missing for six weeks, and her parents believe that she was kidnapped directly from the cruise ship vacation that she had been on around Europe. When she never comes home, and authorities seem to do nothing about the dire situation, Sheila and Shane take the situation into their own hands and decide to take a cruise. The same cruise ship that Shanna was last seen on, no less. Sheila and Shane follow the exact path their daughter took a few months before, determined to find her. After watching security videos of her time on the boat and constantly asking everyone they can if they had any information on Shanna, the couple finally gets leads they want and believe they are on the right track. However, trouble is brewing both aboard the ship and off it, and Sheila and Shane are in great danger. Will the couple be able to find their missing daughter? Or will they be stopped before they find her?

There were so many aspects of this book that I really loved. The details throughout the story were so vibrant and lovely, and there were times when I had such a vivid image in my head of the countries visited throughout the story in the search for Shanna.

The Cruise Ship Lost My Daughter will not be published until June 9, 2020, but I highly recommend checking it out once it's available if you're looking for a quality mystery to dive into!

4/5 stars!

Trapped: A Short-Short Story

Rain pounds harshly against the window, waking me from fever dreams. As I roll onto my back and stare at the ceiling, I can’t help but re-live everything I just imagined—my fears chasing me at every turn. I realize I have been crying. Fresh tears rest beneath my eyelashes. I angrily wipe them away. The storm rages outside, and thick tree branches scratch against the wall of my room. The noise hurts my ears, so I pick up a thin pillow, pressing it to my face to quiet the sound. It blocks out nothing, and I groan, realizing that going back to bed will be impossible at this point. My throat feels dry, so I decide to try and sneak through the house to get a glass of water. I get out of bed and slowly turn the door handle. It’s locked. Of course the door is locked. I should have remembered. Every single night for as long as I have lived here, been trapped here, all doors in the house get locked as soon as the clock strikes midnight. There is no escape. If you don’t g...

Wrapping Up 2019

Hey there, readers! Long time, no see ;) This last year has been an extremely crazy time of growth and change, and as 2019 has finally come to a close, I just wanted to give a quick recap on the year and some of the stuff I have learned in the hopes to provide some encouragement to y'all who may be going through something in your life right at this moment. Life is what you make of it, and what you make of it alone. Nobody, and I mean NOBDOY, gets to define how life goes for you, and nobody has the right to make judgements about you. You get to make your own decisions and choices, and you should choose what is going to make you happy!! Make the right decisions, but at the same time, be good to yourself- you deserve to be happy. ♥ People are overwhelming. Life is overwhelming. It is okay to take a break and be alone for a little bit. You deserve time alone to relax and recharge. You aren't required to always be out and about with other people. This is something I had been strugg...

Letting Go in Order to Let God

Hi, my beautiful people. Today I am going to be sharing some really tough and personal stuff. I am not writing to receive sympathy or anything like that, but I am writing because hopefully by the end of this post, I will have encouraged some of you in way you may or may not have realized you needed. :) For those of you who don't know me very well, I graduated from high school a little more than a month ago and will be heading to Liberty University in Virginia in just under two months (GO FLAMES!). Anyways, haha, I am super excited about the future, and while it may seem as though my senior year had been all fun and games just from looking at my Instagram and other social media posts, it has been, in fact, the hardest year of my life. However, I am super happy now and hope to spread some joy to you too! Yes, you. The person who is reading this right now. ;) Now, I'm not going to get into all of the details of this long year just because there really is no need to, but one ...
