My favorite read in 2024

Book cover of All Fours

Michelle Pace ❤️ loved this book because...

This author has such an amazing observational eye and brutal honesty. She is not a freaks to show the characters as gray af, and I felt like I lived in her head the entire time I was experiencing her book.
While i didn’t always love her heroine, she was certainly a character that jumped off the page at you.

Michelle Pace ❤️ loved this book because...

I liked the twisty turns of this book. This author comes up with some wild thrillers, and I love playing amateur sleuth, so I am all about a dark ride like this.

Michelle Pace ❤️ loved this book because...

This was my first go-round with this author and I immediately ran out and picked up two more books. She has a very readable voice, but her twisty plot ideas are what bring my back again and again.

Don‘t forget about my book 😀

True Gold

By Michelle Pace ,

Book cover of True Gold

What is my book about?

Growing up in True, Alaska, the only truth I knew was that Delilah Campbell was an arrogant pain in my ass. She was also my everything, and still haunts my every waking moment.

I don’t have a single memory that doesn’t include Lie, and I can still taste her, even though Alaska’s no longer big enough for the both of us. After our savage breakup, I fled, chasing my dream and becoming a decorated Green Beret. Ten years later, one bad jump propelled me straight from Special Forces back home, guiding rich idiots into the wilderness, where I struggle to keep them from getting themselves killed. It’s not the life I planned, but at least I’m not behind a desk somewhere.

Then one night, my cell rings, shattering my peaceful existence.

“Connor,” I’d recognize her voice anywhere, and it’s like I’m sixteen again, crazy in love and cocky as hell after finding all those gold bars everyone's been searching for since before we were even born.

I want to tell her to go to hell and throw my phone in the river, but it seems Delilah’s visceral grip on me is permanent.

“It’s mom. She’s missing. I need your help…."
