EDITORIAL REVIEW 1
In Chapter 1, Brenda begins the story of Julia and her eighteen-year-old sister Stephanie, who arrived from Trinidad at Heathrow Airport, London.
I really felt excited and felt as if I too went with them, as I sat in my dark study room reading the book.
Why dark?
Yes, dark because I switched off all lights except the reading light.
Julia was 13 years older than her younger sister and became her legal guardian at age 21 when their parents died in a car crash ten years before. This might make readers sad a little thinking of how they have faced life.
But yes, we know responsibility teaches us to do the impossible.
Each of Brenda's stories tells us about the human strength of the mind and the empowerment of wisdom through yards - long experience of selfless living.
Her stories are in very simple English, which is spoken regularly in every country worldwide.
Therefore any reader can relate to them very quickly and obtain the exact message and the moral embedded.
In the next segment, Brenda wrote that Julia had a lucrative job at the island's refinery, but downgraded to a part-time job to look after her sister.
Julia started writing books to supplement her income and became a best-selling multiple award-winning author.
Here all readers I hope can relate to their real life, with hope and hardship.
After reading this, I felt how immensely responsible these characters are shown to the world so that it gives a huge message to this entire globe, how to take care of their families, what so ever needs to be rendered.
Brenda has written this chapter so interestingly that a new tourist or visitor to London, will get clear guidance and won't feel aa a novice if travelling to London.
After the drama which took place where someone was missing, and which I cannot disclose in this review, in the final part when they met the hotel manager Harry, the conversation is so friendly and natural that readers can relate to it with real-life talking.
I felt it's such an intriguing story that readers can't stop reading until they reach the final chapter.

REVIEW 2.
Lost In London
The story begins with the landing at one of the busiest airports in the world, in London.
The Heathrow Airport is always at it's peak time, as the passengers from around the globe commute on this International Terminus.
The airborne passengers are anxiously waiting to pick up their baggage from the baggage carousel.
The flight from Trinidad to London, at Terminal 5 has just arrived, and the two sisters are eagerly proceeding to the Immigration's counter and green belt to clear the process, a must-do at the airport.
Stephanie and Julia are very eager to embark on their, sightseeing spree in London.
The travel itinerary looks full for Julia, an author of 23 Best Selling Books - and maybe the 24th to arrive soon.
And Stephanie has no clue of it.
So how is it going to be accomplished, by Julia?
The travel writing is 'Hot Line' for Julia and her Facebook Indian friend, Sam Jurai.
But Julia has safely tucked away a big secret of this author friend's visit to London from her younger sister Stephanie.
What are the stakes now?
There are no compromises, from either of the sisters, and the plot takes the readers on the roller coaster ride, from the hotel Atrium to the majestic Big Ben!
The intrigue, at the Big Ben spot really catches on the reader's mind.
Stephanie's sudden disappearance causes a real ruckus at the Hotel Atrium in London.
She is 'Lost and Found' in her attempt to meet the 'New Author' friend of her sister from India.
The "Bucket List Travels" then takes you to Switzerland.
The binge and wanderlust of Julia make these short stories really interesting.

Just when I was thinking of giving up writing.
Just when I was thinking of giving up writing and doing something more lucrative, I received two great five-star reviews for HeartWarming Tales.
One was on Amazon US and the other on Amazon UK.
Sales for the book increased also.
Heart-Warming Tales was No. 58 in Best Sellers in British Short Stories.
Here are the reviews:
HEART - WARMING TALES: Mystery, Crime, Love, and Infidelity
Five stars!

Format: Kindle Edition|Verified Purchase
“Heart Warming Tales” is a collection of short stories, unified by the same theme - love. The mood of each is different: some wistful and sad, some uplifting and inspirational, but each is unique in its own way. Stories of sacrifice, betrayal, deception, hope, and forgiveness are brought to life through a kaleidoscope of characters who only try to find their true love (or struggle not to lose it). Such subject matters as human trafficking, one’s spouse’s failing health, domestic abuse and many more are also revealed through the protagonists’ eyes, which will certainly find a response from many readers. Well-written and easy to read, these stories will definitely warm many hearts. Five stars.

Five-stars
"Brenda Mohammed is a versatile and gifted writer and this collection of stories allows her talent to shine.
Each story is beautifully written with touches of humour to make you smile.
The subtext to the stories makes the reader think and adds a sense of value to each tale.
The variety is also impressive and I dare say Brenda Mohammed could turn her hand to any genre.
In a collection, everyone will have their own favourite.
For me, that would be The Psychiatrist and the Thief, but all the stories have great merit and are well worth reading."
