Then you can come back new.” When Mary Crow promised her longtime lover that she would no longer handle criminal cases, she never expected a murder to land at her front door. When the daughter of a prominent politician is found fatally victimized and her boss is charged with the crime, Mary is placed in the Continue Reading
Review: Thrill Ride by Julie Ann Walker
Thrill Ride by Julie Ann Walker (Black Knight Inc #4) Romantic suspense April 2, 2013 Sourcebooks Reviewed by Mandi This is the fourth book in Julie Ann Walker’s Black Knight Inc series, featuring ex-military guys who go on missions with the front of a motorcycle shop. I’m not sure what to make of this book. I can’t deny it is entertaining, but it is also over the top silly in some places. My biggest frustration is with our heroine Vanessa, who is a communications Continue Reading
Review: Touch & Geaux by Abigail Roux
Touch & Geaux by Abigail Roux (Cut & Run #7) April 1, 2013 M/M Romantic Suspense Riptide Reviewed by Mandi Favorite Quote: “You’re the best partner I could have asked for.” I always like to make the disclaimer when I write these reviews that I’m a fangirl for this series. Meaning – I’m so incredibly invested in Ty and Zane (they are my favorite characters in all of romance) that my reviews of these books are not necessarily objective. Things that may annoy others or not work Continue Reading
Review: Sharp by Alex Hughes
Sharp by Alex Hughes (Mindspace Investigation #2) April 2, 2013 Futuristic Suspense Roc Reviewed by Mandi Going by the number of Goodreads and Amazon reviews for this series, I say – this is the best series you are not reading. It’s like JD Robb meets Jim Butcher. Set in the future, with a strong murder-mystery suspense element, the world is the result of a Tech war, where millions died and technology can no longer be trusted. Our hero, Adam is a very high-level telepath who Continue Reading
Review: An Eye For Danger by Christine M. Fairchild
An Eye For Danger by Christine M. Fairchild June 28, 2012 Romantic Suspense Self Published Reviewed by Mandi It’s hard for me to find new romantic suspense authors I like. I find that most of the books in this genre I try, fizzle out in the middle. And that kind of happened with this book. Maybe fizzled isn’t quite the word I’m looking for, but I think this book would have been much better had it not been so long. It has a really strong, great start and I love the set-up. But by the Continue Reading
Review: Tactical Strike by Kaylea Cross
Tactical Strike by Kaylea Cross (Bagram Special Ops #2) March 11, 2013 Military Romantic Suspense Carina Press Reviewed by Mandi I like military romance and really enjoyed Deadly Descent (among other military romances) from Kaylea Cross last year. Tactical Strike features our heroine, Gunship pilot Captain Candace Bradford who is very hard working, very serious and doesn’t have time for the lusty glances that Combat Controller, Staff Sergeant Ryan Wentworth throws her way. Part Continue Reading
Guest Review: Calculated In Death by J.D. Robb
Calculated in Death by J.D. Robb (In Death #36) February 26, 2013 Futuristic Suspense Putnam Once again, I’ve invited my favorite Roarke lover, Claire to guest review. You can find her previous reviews for this series here. Blurb: On Manhattan's Upper East Side a woman lies dead at the bottom of the stairs, stripped of all her valuables. Most cops might call it a mugging gone wrong, but Lieutenant Eve Dallas knows better. A well-off accountant and a beloved wife and mother, Continue Reading
Review: Agent of Desire by Charlie Evans
Agent of Desire by Charlie Evans (Jessica Booker #1) Romantic Suspense February 16, 2013 Self Published Reviewed by May This is the story of a new agent on a new mission. When she receives her orders in a hotel bar she expects another boring job and instead finds herself in the middle of a lot of action. Not just action – but agents double crossing her and new twists when she least expects them. This is going to be a game changing mission for Jessica, and a lot is at stake. Jessica Continue Reading
The Next Book Everyone Should Read: Sins & Needles by Karina Halle
Sins & Needles by Karina Halle (The Artists Trilogy #1) January 25, 2013 Contemporary/Romantic Suspense Metal Blonde Books Reviewed by Mandi Thanks to the girls at Fiction Vixen for recommending this book. It’s a book that I don’t feel like I can do justice in this review. So much happens, there are so many twists and turns and secrets that I can’t reveal. So I’ll do a basic set-up and maybe ramble for a bit about how much I loved this book. Ellie Watt grew up with con-artist Continue Reading
Review: Midnight Alias by Elle Kennedy
Midnight Alias by Elle Kennedy (Killer Instincts #2) Romantic Suspense February 5, 2013 Berkley Reviewed by Mandi I really enjoy Elle Kennedy’s Out of Uniform series she writes for Samhain so when I saw she was writing a romantic suspense series, I thought I’d give book two a try. It didn’t quite do it for me though. The book starts out strong. Due to her mom’s cancer and huge medical bills, Olivia had to drop out of college and work to pay all the bills. When her friends offers Continue Reading
