"Adjusting Journal Entries" - Review by Barbara Watkins






Author: Ashley Fontainne
Title: Adjusting Journal Entries
Genre: Thriller
Publisher: RMSW Press
Print ISBN# 0615721346
ASIN# B009XU6BCO

“To Revenge or Not to Revenge?”

Ever heard the phrase, “Something Wicked This Way Comes?” Author, Ashley Fontainne’s, novel ‘Adjusting Journal Entries’ is wickedly entertaining, thought provoking, and just all together thrilling!

As with all her books, Ms. Fontainne does her research – creates memorable characters, spot on dialogue, and always leaves her readers wanting more. Ms. Fontainne’s literary works remind me of another great author I adore, John Grisham.

 ‘Adjusting Journal Entries,’ the third book in the (Snake) series, wraps up this trilogy with a most thrilling conclusion. The reader follows, Audra Tanner, the heroine of the series, as she continues her flight for revenge. Who has not wanted revenge at one time or another in their life? As a reader, I long for plots with twist and turns – colorful characters, and scenarios that will ‘wow’ me. You will get all the above and more with, ‘Adjusting Journal Entries.’

Ashley Fontainne’s trilogy includes, ‘Accountable to None,’ ‘Zero Balance,’ and ‘Adjusting Journal Entries.’ I highly recommend adding all to your library!

Review of 'Ramblings of a Mad Southern Woman'


Title: Ramblings of a Mad Southern Woman (A Collection of Short Stories and Poetry on Life, Loss, Love and Longing)

Author: Ashley Fontainne
Sold by: Amazon Digital Services
Print Length: 81 pages
ASIN# B007Z1IGJO

Breathtaking Poetry – Fear-Provoking Stories with Suspenseful Tales Wrapped Around Human Emotions!

Ms. Fontainne (aka, Princess of Suspense) in her writings has a stupendous ability to reach down into your gut – to draw up the deepest emotions from your inner soul…emotions of love, empathy, fear, and revenge. Not afraid to proclaim her religious values, she inserts her loving spirit into a story creating emotional rapture… ‘How 9/11 Saved My Dad’ and ‘Who is Michael?’ come to mind.

When writing tales that involve revenge surrounded by suspense, Ms. Fontainne spares no mercy for the antagonist, as you will witness in ‘Stained Concrete’. With her short story, ‘Death By Shadow’ she manages to stir up terrifying childhood nightmares to which there is no escape. In ’Smoldering Ashes’, the author delivers a fierce tale of pain and torment followed by redemption that ‘one’ will not soon forget.

Ms Fontainne’s poetry is like experiencing a fine wine with an exquisite meal. Her words will take the reader on a journey through their darkest days of melancholy, and then release them into a world of spirited bliss.

‘Ramblings of a Mad Southern Woman’ is a powerful, and emotional voyage – a golden ticket from the award winning writer, ‘Ashley Fontainne’.

Zero Balance: (Eviscerating the Snake Series)

Zero Balance: (Eviscerating the Snake Series)
Author: Ashley Fontainne
Publisher: World Castle Publishing
Genre: Suspense/Thriller

The Perfect Antidote for this Snake Series!

Ashley Fontainne, author of ‘Zero Balance’ brought out the venom in this series! If you have not read her first book in this series, ‘Accountable to None’ – run, don’t walk…download a copy immediately! Fontainne has established her niche in the literary world of suspense thrillers. In the ‘Fontainne’ style, she has created well developed characters surrounded in a design of homicidal brilliance.

Place revenge in a woman’s hands – grant her with assistance… add in a detective possessed in finding out the underlying reasons for such acts of evil – you have a recipe for ‘the’ perfect dish!

I give ‘Zero Balance’ Five Stars for its originality, thrills, and nail biting suspense!

Accountable to None

Title: Accountable to None
Author: Ashley Fontainne
Genre: Thriller
Publisher: CreateSpace
Pages 154

“It’s Not Revenge She’s After – It’s a Reckoning”

Accountable to None, by Ashley Fontainne, is more than just a tale about revenge – much more. It is a story about the human spirit – the human endurance structure that is woven throughout each and every one of us. There comes a time in all of our lives when we feel that we have been victimized in one way or another. Do we select to seek out revenge – or do we simply choose to forgive our attacker? Justice must always be served!

Audra is a beautiful and intelligent CPA at an accounting firm in Phoenix, Arizona. Her boss, Olin Kemper, is a belligerent, power seeking, maniacal sex-crazed maniac. Upon being lured into a meeting with him on the assumption of a possible promotion, he sexually assaults her while others turn a blind eye. I will not get into details, as I want the reader to experience first hand the authors’ realistic description of this horrific event.

Fast-forward and we find Audra is now head of the IT department. Using her computer skills, she hacks into their security system looking for anything that will incriminate those responsible for her suffering. This is where the story strikes a dramatic turn of events.

In ‘Accountable to None’, Ashley Fontainne weaves a suspenseful tale of murder, revenge and justice – perfectly balanced.

I give Five Stars to this spellbinding thriller. Bravo!
