Elle Thorpe lives on the sunny east coast of Australia, about an hour out of Sydney. When she’s not writing stories full of kissing and chemistry, she’s a wife, and Mummy to three tiny humans. She’s also official ball thrower to one slobbery dog named Rollo. Yes, she named a female dog after a male character on Vikings. Don’t judge her. Elle is a complete and utter fangirl at heart, obsessing over The Walking Dead and Outlander to an unhealthy degree. But she wouldn’t change a thing.
Anybody who’s ever read a Saint View book will know that there’s always more going on than meets the eye. Every time Elle Thorpe pulls out more twists and turns than Bolivia’s Death Road. With Rebel Heart she’s gone one better and pulled off probably the most complex plot I’ve read from her yet. When we left Rebel in Rebel Obsessession Caleb and Hugh had […]

Remember back in Locked Up Liars, Mae had a sister Jayela, who was partnered up on the police force with a guy named Boston? What about when Liam took Mae to a strip club owned by Eve right before the place got shot up? Evil Enemy takes us straight back to that time and the protagonists in this book are the very same Eve and

Let me start by saying that picking this book up the day after gynae surgery was not a smart plan. The brain may have been willing but what’s left of my reproductive organs could not cope with all that Rebel Obsession had to offer. Sure, some of the book gets a little steamy, but other parts are pure filth. Now I’m going to have to

The cliffhanger queen is back and you’re going to love this one. Or hate it. Or love to hate it. One of the above, anyway. But first, let’s go back to that other cliffhanger, the extra one we were left with in It Ends With Violence. Rebel’s story picks up a week after the events of that night, with her dealing with the aftermath of
Rebel Revenge by Elle Thorpe Read More »
This book is packed full of so many twists, turns and revelations that I don’t know where to begin! If you haven’t already read Start A War or Half The Battle then I’d suggest pausing and devouring them now. I can’t guarantee I won’t get spoilery over them. It wasn’t enough for Elle Thorpe to have written in a raid on Psychos, losing the bar
It Ends With Violence by Elle Thorpe Read More »
It’s all kicking off in Saint View and, you guessed it, Lacey is at the centre of the chaos. Those new characters that appeared at the end of Dangerous Little Secrets are there to cause some serious trouble and reveal some shocking truths (as if we haven’t had enough of those already). After the first two books in the trilogy showed women being beaten down
Twisted Little Truths by Elle Thorpe Read More »
After that shocking cliffhanger we were left with at the end of Devious Little Liars it was hard to see how Lacey, Rafe, and Banjo’s relationship could recover. Then there was Lacey; after everything she’d been put through someone just had to come and kick her while she was down. I’m not going to say it’s all good (because clearly, it isn’t) but it does

Ooooh! You’re gonna love this one. Actually, that could be my whole review, but you know that once I get started about a good book you’re in for an essay. Start A War transitions into Half The Battle so seamlessly that if you’re reading them back to back you wouldn’t know where one ended and the next started. It’s the perfect pick-up for the start

I kinda got to know the town of Saint View all out of order. My first introduction to the wrong side of town was in the Saint View Prison series, which was a fabulous read. One of the characters from Saint View High makes a brief crossover into the prison, but it never really occurred to me to go back and read the series. After

I remember when the Saint View Prison series ended, Elle Thorpe asked her Facebook group which guy characters they liked the most. A large number of us responded not with any of the series’ main characters, but with a supporting role: the unusual and definitely psychopathic hitman, Vincent. I mean doesn’t everybody love your friendly neighbourhood psycho? When I realised that Vincent was co-starring, it

In case you hadn’t guessed from my review of Solitary Sinners, I was absolutely itching to read Fatal Felons and had a few ideas on what I’d like to see included in this book. I’m happy to say that Elle Thorpe did not disappoint when she brought the Saint View Prison trilogy to a close. Fatal Felons is a hyper-emotional book, dealing with multiple high-stress
Fatal Felons by Elle Thorpe Read More »
I’m finding it really difficult to sit down and write this review because all I want to do is pick up Fatal Felons (book 3) and read my way through the epic cliffhanger that Solitary Sinners left me with. If you thought Locked Up Liars ended on a cliffhanger, you ain’t seen nothing yet! When we last left Saint View the prison was mid-riot, with
