edit data

M. M. Cochran is an award-winning investigative journalist and bestselling author of her debut novel Between the Ocean and the Stars, a young adult mystery romance. She also authored The Button Collector, a psychological thriller. While she likes the idea of her biography saying something like “she enjoys the outdoors and being in nature,” Cochran can realistically be found fitting author stereotypes such as curling up in her blanket, reading a book, and drinking a cup of coffee.

Cochran lives with her husband in Franklin, TN, as a full-time journalist for the Williamson Herald.

I had really high hopes for this book but was severely disappointed. I expected a love story, not a steamy romance (not my cup of tea). At that, the romance felt super cringey and borderline gross. I could say so much more but don't want to get into ...more

I think I would've liked this one more if I hadn't set the bar so high with The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo (five stars) and Malibu Rising (four stars). Overall, a VERY emotional and good book for a quick weekend read! I'd recommend! ...more

M.M.’s Quotes

“Drina is not terrifyingly muscled. Her underdeveloped calves tell me she's not a runner. Her bad posture tells me she has little to no energy. She might be good with a sword, but I deem that unlikely.

I fail to find a solid reason not to punch her in the face.”
