Review: Midnight Rescue by Elle Kennedy

Midnight Rescue - Elle Kennedy

Midnight Rescue is the first book in a new series by Elle Kennedy.  We are immediately introduced to a hunky set of men that all work for the same team.  They are former CIA, FBI, Seals, and so on.  This sort of plot really appeals to me because it usually means we will get to [...]

Review: The Witness by Nora Roberts

The Witness

After thinking about it for a bit, I realized that it has been quite a while since I have read a new standalone book by Nora Roberts. It was a nice change. I have no problem reading about a group of friends or relatives in a trilogy, but it was nice to know that everyone [...]

Review: Before She Dies by Mary Burton

Before She Dies

Despite its label of Romantic Suspense, this book has barely any romance. In the beginning of the book, when I was enjoying it, I thought I might like the overall story despite my irritation with not delivering on the promised “R” in “RS.” Unfortunately, that optimism only holds true when I’m actually enjoying said book. [...]

Review: The Departed by Shiloh Walker

The Departed

I just realized this is the second time I’ve started a Shiloh Walker series with the second book. I read Broken and loved it so I went back to read Fragile. This time I jumped into the FBI Psychics series with book two, with The Departed, and I’m feeling like I need to go back and [...]

Review: If You See Her by Shiloh Walker

After reading the first book in this trilogy, If You Hear Her, I was very excited to dive into If You See Her. The serial killer plot spans the whole trilogy, the romances are the only things resolved in the individual books, so I couldn’t wait to see what came next. The first book was great! [...]

Review: Sweet Reward by Christy Reece

Sweet Reward

I had a really hard time connecting with this book. I liked the storyline idea in Sweet Reward, but I couldn’t get into the execution of it. I know this is a popular series, so I’m slightly curious about whether or not this book was a good representation of the rest of the series. Either [...]
