Critical Alliance Elizabeth Goddard


   
Description:
Mackenzie Hanson's special set of skills opened the door to a successful career as a professor of cybersecurity at a Michigan university, allowing her to put her criminal past behind her. But when a long-ago partner in crime delivers a cryptic message about her father's tech company being under cyberattack, she heads for Montana to secure exposed assets, close security breaches, and hopefully save lives.

Diplomatic Security Services special agent Alex Knight is back home in Montana to decompress from a mission gone wrong. But even as he's trying to relax, he's drawn into another mystery, complete with suspicious deaths, lethal threats, and whispers of espionage that all have one thing in common--a beautiful cybersecurity expert with a dark past.

When the situation turns deadly, Alex and Mackenzie will have to work together to find the answers they need--before someone silences Mackenzie for good.

USA Today bestselling author Elizabeth Goddard weaves a tangled web of nail-biting suspense and heart-stopping romance in this fast-paced conclusion to her Rocky Mountain Courage series.

My Review:
This book was so dang good, I just could not put it down. So this is a book that would fall under don't read alone if you jump at every noice lol. I love Mackenzie I think like so many of us she beats herself ups for choices she made in the past but fights every day to make it right. She's a fighter and would stop at nothing including pushing the limits to help her family. Alex he was out to make things right for the families who lost loved ones up in the hills including his dad. He was another fighter. I felt like when you take these two you never knew what was going to be more stubborn about doing what. This author threw some twist and turns in right till the very end. I so wanted more in the end I was not disappointed with the ending but just wanted more. I loved how this author keeps you on the edge of your seat with what's going to happen next. Overall I really enjoyed this book if you can't tell :-) and I would totally recommend it.

Free Fall Nancy Mehl


  
 Description:
The closer she comes to the truth, the deadlier her chase gets. 

FBI behavioral analyst Alex Donovan and her colleague Logan Hart have been called upon to write a profile for a missing woman, but a little digging quickly turns up more disappearances in Virginia with the same physical description. 

Alex is in a race against the clock to rescue the missing victims, so when the UNSUB makes demands of her in exchange for information, Alex takes the bait. But when her life is put in jeopardy, Logan must do whatever it takes to track them down before time runs out.

Alex works to think one step ahead of the suspect, but the more Logan and the BAU learn about the serial kidnapper, the more they fear Alex may not make it out alive.

"The relentless pace will keep readers glued to their seats . . . This pulse-pounding romantic thriller is a wild ride."--Publishers Weekly

My Review:
I could not put this book down I has you sucked in right away and the author throws you so twist and turns that keep you guessing to the very end. In fact in the last part of the book the author throws a curveball I was so mad at first then kept reading only to take a nice sigh. know this the books not over until the that word is read. I really liked the "family" aspect of this group of friends. I loved Alex she has such a big task to take on but has the biggest heart for those who are struggling. I truly have nothing bad to say its amazing and you can not go wrong. Grab this book you will not be disappointed.

Dangerous Lies Claudia Shelton- Shades of Leverage, #2


Description:

To ex-Navy SEAL Mitch Granger, responsibility isn’t just a word. It’s his Code of Honor. But when assigned to protect Coercion Ten’s latest target, she challenges his authority, defies his rules, and wreaks havoc on his personal willpower. Fighting for her isn’t a problem. Giving his life for her isn’t a problem. Forgetting their world-stopping kiss? Definite problem. And if he can’t concentrate solely on keeping her safe, it may cost them both their lives.

Journalist Liz Walkert’s missing father sent her a cryptic message that she was in danger. What he didn’t tell her was why. Unbeknownst to Liz, her family has been in Witness Protection all her life. Mitch may be her bodyguard, but his protection comes close to being control, the one thing she has none of in his presence. After a kidnap attempt and a narrow escape from attacking CT forces, they both realize they’re going to need to focus on the mission and fight their attraction if they have any hope of surviving.

Each book in the Shades of Leverage series is STANDALONE:
* Slater's Revenge
* Dangerous Lies



My thoughts on the book:

If I had to choose a few words to describe this book they would be; intense, twisted and really good. Some fiction books when you are reading it you can see it happening, in this story some of it was so far fetched you know that’s why it’s fiction. But with the twist and turns in this story makes you wonder if just maybe this has happened to someone before. The author keeps you guessing and keeps you drawn in that’s for the hole book. I had the hardest time putting this book down, it truly seem to just fly. This book does have sec and adult language in it. This book for sure was really good. I wonder what OPAQUE will be up to next. I received an advance copy from the publisher via NetGalley. I was under no obligation to post a review and have given my honest opinion

“A brilliant writer you’ll love creates a world you’ll never want to leave.”—Susan Mallery, New York Times bestselling author


My thoughts on the book:

I love reading books by this author. She really has a way of drawing you into the story and keeping you there. I really liked the three cousins and I can’t wait to read more about Boone and Tucker. I really like Angelica she was like a kindred spirit all spit fire and sass but had a way of showing love while doing it. I was never a fan of Shanon even in the end I just didn’t like her I felt like she was a master manipulator and Jackson seemed to play into some. I liked how the author through a twist into the story I didn’t see coming it really felt like it added another element to the story and it definitely grabs your attention. I like that, over all this story was a good clean read and I can’t wait to see what the author was in store for these characters. I received an advance copy from the publisher via NetGalley. I was under no obligation to post a review and have given my honest opinion

The High Tide Club Mary Kay Andrews



Description:

When ninety-nine-year-old heiress Josephine Bettendorf Warrick summons Brooke Trappnell to Talisa Island, her 20,000 acre remote barrier island home, Brooke is puzzled. Everybody in the South has heard about the eccentric millionaire mistress of Talisa, but Brooke has never met her. Josephine’s cryptic note says she wants to discuss an important legal matter with Brooke, who is an attorney, but Brooke knows that Mrs. Warrick has long been a client of a prestigious Atlanta law firm.

Over a few meetings, the ailing Josephine spins a tale of old friendships, secrets, betrayal and a long-unsolved murder. She tells Brooke she is hiring her for two reasons: to protect her island and legacy from those who would despoil her land, and secondly, to help her make amends with the heirs of the long-dead women who were her closest friends, the girls of The High Tide Club—so named because of their youthful skinny-dipping escapades—Millie, Ruth and Varina. When Josephine dies with her secrets intact, Brooke is charged with contacting Josephine’s friends’ descendants and bringing them together on Talisa for a reunion of women who’ve actually never met.

The High Tide Club is Mary Kay Andrews at her Queen of the Beach Reads best, a compelling and witty tale of romance thwarted, friendships renewed, justice delivered, and true love found.


My thoughts on the book:
Josephine is sick and she calls Brooke for help. When Brooke gathers the people Jo has asked for things take a twist. Josephine has secrets and some she will take to her grave or so everyone thinks. When Brooke gets The High Tide Club members family in one area it may be more than any of them anticipated. Can everyone come together and find the answers they all seek?

When this book first started I had a hard time getting into it and when I realized how long it was I thought oh my this book will be the death of me. Then I thought this book was a Romance book boy was I fooled, (my fault didn't read the back) this book has so many twists and turns you don’t know what to expect next. However that quickly change, the story picked up and just started to come together. It draws you in, it has so really fun characters throughout and has you laughing when you least expect it, I did find the book dragging at some point then it would pick right back up leaving you wanting more or at least wondering what was happening next. I have so much respect and love for Varina her and Farrah were some of my favorites. But it was hard not to like a lot of the female characters. This book does have some cursing but overall is a really good book.

Into the Light Kathryn Ascher book #3




Description:

Jackson Harris fell in love with his best friend’s sister, but at her brother’s request, he stepped out of her life to clean up his act. When he was ready to declare his love to her, she rejected him, sending him back into a tailspin of bad behavior. Four years later, he’s focused on his struggling band , the women who want him, and still trying to forget the one who didn’t. When she suddenly shows up as his band’s new manager, he realizes that, despite his best efforts, his feelings for her haven’t changed a bit. Kerrigan Dodd has spent the past four years living in Europe, trying to forget that Jackson, the only man she’s ever loved, walked out of her life six years earlier. After returning home, the last thing she expected was that her new job was to manage his failing band. To make matters worse, she barely recognizes the boy she fell in love with in his band persona, and the prospect of spending so much time with him has her questioning her ability to do her job. As Jack and Kerrigan work to turn the band around, they struggle to overcome the secrets that have kept them apart. Just when they’re coming together, on both fronts, other forces conspire to keep them from reaching their goals. Will they be able to put the past behind them and clear the way for their future? Or are their current differences too much to move beyond?

My thoughts on the book:

Jackson is the bad boy who has no problem having girls on his arm and enjoying the lifestyle the band affords him. However he has some secrets of his own he would like to keep, when one walks in the door and turns his world on its edge he starts to question the past and what could have been. Kerrigan is broken and home and has a secret that could break most people, but she has decided to put that to the side and take on this job as a band manager, she just never thought she would be babysitting and that was going to end real quick. When she discovers who is in the band she sets in her heart and mind that she will keep everything professional and not let Jack affect her or her job in any way. When things go array will she and Jack be able to put everything aside and fight for whats right or will it be best she just walk away?
This book is utterly amazing. I seriously could not put this book down I stayed up late one night just to finish reading it. So amazing. I really enjoyed each of the characters, even the ones who were not meant to be so great. Each person played such and important roll in the book I could not imagine the book going any other way. I found the book to be on the edge of your seat on some points and others just completely enjoyable and going with the flow. The storyline flowed amazingly and kept you guessing. The language was strong in the book, there were some adult scenes and some tough topics in the book, so the book will not be right for all ages but its so worth the read. 
IF you are looking for a love story were not everything just falls into place this is the story for you.

Inn at Last Chance Hope Ramsay

What's the book about:
Jenny Carpenter is the unrivaled pie-baking champion of Last Chance, South Carolina's annual Watermelon Festival and the town's unofficial spinster. With her dream of marriage and children on hold, she focuses on another dream, turning the local haunted house into a charming bed-and-breakfast. But her plans go off course when the home's former owner shows up on her doorstep on a dark and stormy night . . .

Mega-bestselling horror writer Gabriel Raintree is as mysterious and tortured as his heroes. His family's long-deserted mansion is just the inspiration he needs to finish his latest twisted tale, or so he thinks until he learns it's been sold. The new innkeeper proves to be as determined as she is kind, and soon Gabriel finds himself a paying guest in his own home. As Jenny and Gabe bring new passion to the old house, can she convince him to leave the ghosts of his past behind-and make Last Chance their first choice for a future together?
My thoughts on the book:
I could not get enough of this book. The book is about a teacher who decided to stop teaching and start her dream job of running an inn.  When she is months away from opening things start to get really interesting and at first it goes unexplained. In the mean time the old bittys in town are up to there gossip and matchmaking ways. This book is a book you find your self not wanting to put down there are no downs in this book with every turn of the page it leaves you wanting so much more. When you start to think that the book is going to slow for just a sec think again the book has a twist or a turn coming all the way up to the end of the book. I have to say that I can not wait to read more from this author. I hope you enjoy it just as much as I did.
