Monthly challenges, plus being viewed by millions live, put pressure on these parents to win the hearts of the audience. At the end, only one couple can win. They can choose to keep their AI child to raise or delete the child and use the money to start a family in the real world. But each couple has a dark secret. After all, that's why they were picked.

Six friends go on a weekend getaway. But six don't come back. What or who is killing them, and why? I did not see the ending coming.

Hungry games with a mix of lord of the flies. A severe hurricane hits Florida, stranding the employees of Fantasticland. A hugely popular amusement park that has plenty of food and water for the staff to survive for weeks. So why is it day five and people are being killed? I, like many others, had to stop and remind myself this isn't real. Sadly, the way our world is going, it would be before day five that people lost their minds.

A very action-packed read. What seems to start off as a normal day for one piolet turns into a nightmare when he is told  to make a choice. Crash the plan or kill your wife and kids. Now, he must make his choice. His crew has his back, or are they part of the plan?

A terrible diving accident leaves one woman with memory loss. She relies on her devoted husband to help her as she struggles to piece together her past. However it seems someone is messing with the pieces, with the truth, with her life. I'm pretty sure this was a lifetime movie.

Holy shit... This book was just mind blowing and amazing. Dead bodies every where. Multiple murders, but no mo is the same. Someone is copying murders of famous serial killers. What are they after? How are they easily one step ahead of the police? And how far would you truly go to protect someone you love?

Did I like the story? Yes. Investigative reporter Kelsey Castle is sent to North Carolina to do a story on a murder. The murder of  first year law student Becca Eckersley. But all is not what it seems, information is being hidden, buy why? As I said I liked the story, I liked the ending. However, I just felt like Kelsey walked in said 'I want these files that are under lock and key.' And there was no fight about it just like here ya go. Everyone befriended her within 2 minutes of meeting her. Oh your here about the murder? Where friends now!

A mother (Jules) wrecks her car, plummeting into the frozen lake. She desperately swims in the icy cold water, pulling her son to  safety. But, it's not her son. No, it's his friend (Issac) who rode with them from practice. Now, both Jules and Issac are suffering survivor guilt. They are no longer the same. Their lives changed forever. But there is much more going on between them. Is this survivors guilt or a darkness that's been growing for a long time?

Oh boy, do I love a good murder mystery where rich families' dirty secrets are revealed. The body of a woman is found beneath the cliffs. What happened? Was it an accident or murder? She is found by Tom Bradley, a professor at the local college. He tells the police he doesn't know the woman, but he does. The victim is connected to him, but she has a deeper connection to his wife, psychotherapist Lily Bradley. Now, as the police search for the truth, marriages are being strained, secrets are being leaked, and the truth is unbelievable.
