Book Review: Copycat by Diane Saxon

Copycat
Title: Copycat 

Author: Diane Saxon

Stars: 3 1/2

Review:
This book is part of a series and while the author tries hard to catch readers up without taking to much time away from the main story readers jumping in might be still a little lost.
Once the story starts readers will find themselves in a thriller that will have readers wondering what is going on and where is this going but in the best of ways.  The characters are interesting enough but fall into the traditional police\Constable characters and do not move away from that box.
The find themselves watching as murder are happening unable to stop or tell the characters to run away.  The author is graphic and describe in detail what is happening to the point of painful.
In the end the book is a decent read for those who like mysteries with a little more gore.

Synopsis:
When a beautiful, red haired nurse’s body is found mutilated in her house in Lawley the morning after a date with Detective Constable Ryan Downey, all eyes turn to him.
With a very specific modus operandi, Detective Sergeant Jenna Morgan and her team know exactly who the offender is, the trouble is he’s currently serving a life stretch in HMP Long Lartin.
It soon becomes evident to DS Morgan and her team that there maybe a copycat killer is on the loose.
In a race against time, they need to track down the copycat and discover who is pulling whose strings?

The Ruins
Title: The Ruins by Mat Osman

Review:
Mat Osman uses his knowledge to bring his first book to life.  The author creates characters that might not be likable but if readers have siblings they will be able to connect with the lead characters desire to find the truth of what happen to his brother.

Book Review: Blood & Ash (The Jezebel Files #1) by Deborah Wilde

Blood & Ash (The Jezebel Files, #1)
Title: Blood & Ash (The Jezebel Files #1) 

Author: Deborah Wilde

Stars: 3 1\2

Review:
This is the first in a series but it stars up as if readers have met the characters before.  The story works but it feels like things are missing or the story is in need of better editing. This reviewer is unsure of what is needed.
The story is interesting and flows quickly at times humors and other times head scratching wondering what I might have missed.  The scene doesn't quite fit in or at least it should have waiting maybe for another book.
When the author has Ashira reveal what is going on it is fast, quick and wishing the final battle lasted longer.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for a copy of Deborah Wilde Blood and Ash.


Synopsis:
Ashira Cohen takes pride in being the only female private investigator in Vancouver. With her skills, her missing persons case should be a piece of cake.

She wasn’t counting on getting bashed in the skull, revealing a hidden tattoo and supernatural powers she shouldn’t possess.

Or the bitter icing on top: a spree of abductions and terrifying ghostly creatures on a deadly bender.

And don’t even get her started on the golems.

Reluctantly partnered with her long-time nemesis Levi, the infuriating leader of the magic community, Ash resolves to keep her focus on the clue trail and off their sexual tension because WTF is up with that?

But with a mastermind organization pulling strings from the shadows and Levi’s arrogance driving her to pick out his body bag, can Ash rescue the captives and uncover the truth or will the next blood spilled be her own?

About The Author:
A global wanderer, hopeless romantic, and total cynic with a broken edit button, Deborah writes urban fantasy to satisfy her love of smexy romances and tales of chicks who kick ass. This award-winning author is all about the happily-ever-after, with a huge dose of hilarity along the way. “It takes a bad girl to fight evil. Go Wilde.”

Just released book 5 of my Unlikeable Demon Hunter books and it is with excitement, trepidation, and sadness that I bring it to a conclusion in book 6, which will hopefully be out in early 2019.

Author:  Joanna Schaffhausen 

Stars: 4

Review:
Joanna Schaffhausen is able to bring together a cast of characters that are fascinating and will have readers wondering if the story is partly true as the author drives the story with characters who pop off the pages.
The Villain is perfect for this story to the point readers will know who it is pretty quick. Yet the authors ability to tell a story is what drives the readers wondering what will happen.

Synopsis:
FBI agent Reed Markham is haunted by one painful unsolved mystery: who murdered his mother? Camilla was brutally stabbed to death more than forty years ago while baby Reed lay in his crib mere steps away. The trail went so cold that the Las Vegas Police Department has given up hope of solving the case. But then a shattering family secret changes everything Reed knows about his origins, his murdered mother, and his powerful adoptive father, state senator Angus Markham. Now Reed has to wonder if his mother's killer is uncomfortably close to home.

Unable to trust his family with the details of his personal investigation, Reed enlists his friend, suspended cop Ellery Hathaway, to join his quest in Vegas. Ellery has experience with both troubled families and diabolical murderers, having narrowly escaped from each of them. She's eager to skip town, too, because her own father, who abandoned her years ago, is suddenly desperate to get back in contact. He also has a secret that could change her life forever, if Ellery will let him close enough to hear it.

Far from home and relying only on each other, Reed and Ellery discover young Camilla had snared the attention of dangerous men, any of whom might have wanted to shut her up for good. They start tracing his twisted family history, knowing the path leads back to a vicious killer—one who has been hiding in plain sight for forty years and isn't about to give up now.

Book Review: The Simple Wild (Wild #1) by K.A. Tucker

The Simple Wild (Wild, #1)
Title: The Simple Wild (Wild #1)

Author: K.A. Tucker 

Stars: 4

Review:
The story of the heroine begins when two women, one a Lady and the other a Madam, have a chance meeting in an upscale ladies dressing shop. Subsequent events reveal that while one is married to a Lord of the realm the other is the self proclaimed love of his life. After both have children and the Lord has died the real story starts. It follows the Lady as she meets an old foe who causes her heart to quicken. Can these two former foes, after a 10 year passing, find mutual respect, admiration, and love for each other and how does the former lover fare?

I found this to be a very entertaining book that proved difficult to put down as it kept my interest peaked. I have rated this book 4 stars.

I received an ARC from Netgalley for by unbiased review.
Thank you Frank for your Review.

Synopsis:
Calla Fletcher wasn't even two when her mother took her and fled the Alaskan wild, unable to handle the isolation of the extreme, rural lifestyle, leaving behind Calla’s father, Wren Fletcher, in the process. Calla never looked back, and at twenty-six, a busy life in Toronto is all she knows. But when Calla learns that Wren’s days may be numbered, she knows that it’s time to make the long trip back to the remote frontier town where she was born.

She braves the roaming wildlife, the odd daylight hours, the exorbitant prices, and even the occasional—dear God—outhouse, all for the chance to connect with her father: a man who, despite his many faults, she can’t help but care for. While she struggles to adjust to this rugged environment, Jonah—the unkempt, obnoxious, and proud Alaskan pilot who helps keep her father’s charter plane company operational—can’t imagine calling anywhere else home. And he’s clearly waiting with one hand on the throttle to fly this city girl back to where she belongs, convinced that she’s too pampered to handle the wild.

Jonah is probably right, but Calla is determined to prove him wrong. Soon, she finds herself forming an unexpected bond with the burly pilot. As his undercurrent of disapproval dwindles, it’s replaced by friendship—or perhaps something deeper? But Calla is not in Alaska to stay and Jonah will never leave. It would be foolish of her to kindle a romance, to take the same path her parents tried—and failed at—years ago. It’s a simple truth that turns out to be not so simple after all.

Book Review: Hard Justice (Cobra Elite #3) by Pamela Clare

Hard Justice (Cobra Elite, #3)
Title: Hard Justice (Cobra Elite #3)

Author:  Pamela Clare 

Stars: 3 1\2

Review:
Hard Justice is considered a stand alone novel but readers might be lost with the different characters and history.  The romance between Quinn and Elizabeth is the worst hidden secret in the group and when she goes to help the man she loves things go unexpected ways.  There is sex, touring of Glasgow and a background story of the Quinn so Readers can better understand his constant the girl needs someone better than him.  Which is endlessly mention in the book to the point of several eye rolls. The story is your typical military romance suspense story.

Thank you to Netgalley for a copy of Pamela Clare Hard Justice

Synopsis:
Elizabeth Shields has always craved adventure. That’s why she went to work for the CIA straight out of college. That’s probably also the reason she feels drawn to Quinn McManus, a veteran of the British Special Air Service. The big Scotsman gives off a dangerous vibe that she can’t resist. Yet, resist she must. She and Quinn both work for Cobra International Security, which has a strict policy against hook-ups between employees, and she’s too much of a professional to date a coworker. She and Quinn can never be more than friends. But when his best buddy from the SAS is found murdered on the streets of Glasgow, Elizabeth will do all she can to help Quinn cope with the loss … and find the culprit.

Quinn McManus escaped a life of poverty by joining the British Army. His fellow soldiers became his family, forging a bond stronger than blood. Now, with his best friend dead, he needs Elizabeth’s special skills to help track down the killer. He has no intention of getting physical with her. Rules are rules. But as their unofficial investigation heats up, so does the attraction between them. Still, he refuses to surrender. Because if they cross the line from friends to lovers, there will be no going back.

But some battles can’t be won, and soon the passion between Quinn and Elizabeth ignites, hot enough to melt the cold Glasgow winter. As they move closer to the truth and to each other, they find themselves in the sights of a stone-cold killer, who won’t hesitate to destroy them both to keep a terrible secret.

Nevermore (Raven Crawford, #2)
Title:

Author: J.C. McKenzie 

Stars: 4

Review:
I didn't read book 1 in the series and while readers will have some catching up to do the story flow well enough.  The story is interesting and the twist of Norse mythology and supernatural stories.
The story flows well but focuses on the romance between two characters until the have their moment. IE sex. There are funny moment in the story that will have readers giggling. The series sounds interesting and I will want to go back and read book one to netter understand the dynamics between certain characters.  Readers will enjoy that raven is a working as many jobs to deal with living in the real world and dating scum bags.

Book Review: The Intended Victim (The Agency #4) by Alexandra Ivy

The Intended Victim (The Agency #4)
Title: The Intended Victim (The Agency #4) 

Author: Alexandra Ivy

Stars: 5

Review:
I have read many books by Alexandra Ivy and I have to admit I love her Romantic Suspense better than her supernatural series.
The story is about the one who got away and while the characters fall in love once again quickly there characters pop off the pages and will have readers questioning everything they read at the beginning as the end of the book arrives giving readers a what they expect.  Exciting page turner with characters readers will fall in love with and second chance romance.  The author cover mental health, PTSD and how it can effect the brain differently as well as how everyone processes loss. Must read book.

Thank you to Netgalley and the Author for a copy of Alexandra Ivy Intended Victim

Synopsis:
ONCE, SHE GOT AWAY
The body lying on a cold steel slab bears all the hallmarks of the Chicago Butcher. There’s a cruel slash across her throat, deep enough to sever the carotid artery, and a small crescent carved into her right breast. Her delicate features are painfully familiar to Ash Marcel, once a rising star in the Chicago PD. But though the victim resembles his former fiancée, Remi Walsh, he knows it’s not her.

BUT THIS TIME
Though Remi escaped a serial killer five years ago, her father died trying to save her. Grief and guilt caused her to pull away from the man she loved. Now Ash is back in her life, insisting that Remi is still in danger.

IT’S A DEAD END . . .
Someone is targeting women who look just like Remi. With or without a badge, Ash intends to unmask the Butcher. But the killer isn’t playing games any longer. He’s moving in, ready to finish what he started, and prove there’s nothing more terrifying than a killer’s obsession

About The Author:
I'm not exactly sure when I fell in love with books. Probably on my mother's knee listening to her read Dr. Seuss to me. I do remember that I was barely old enough to cross the street by myself when I discovered the delights of the local library. Could anything be more wonderful than spending summer days surrounded by stacks of Nancy Drew mysteries? Over the years I fell in love with Victoria Holt, Jane Austen, Agatha Christie, and J.R.R. Tolkien just to name a few. I read poetry, essays, biographies, and plays. In fact, I read anything I could get my hands on.

Years later (no, I'm not admitting how many) I'm still an avid reader, and my tastes are still as varied as they were in my youth, which I suppose helps to explain why I enjoy writing regency historicals under the name of Deborah Raleigh, as well as my contemporary paranormals as Alexandra Ivy. For now that is enough to keep me busy, but who knows what the future might hold!

I do have a few other loves in my life besides reading and writing, the most important being my unbelievably patient husband, David, and my two sons, Chance and Alexander. Without their constant support and belief in me, I never could have been able to follow my dreams. They are truly my heroes.

Book Review: The Third to Die (Mobile Response Team #1) by Allison Brennan

The Third to Die (Mobile Response Team, #1)
Title: The Third to Die (Mobile Response Team #1)

Author: Allison Brennan 

Stars: 5

Review:
I have so many questions about not about the book but more about how does the author do it.  She is able to create a story that is impossible to put down.  Characters, locations, jobs that come alive and jump off the pages.  Kara Quinn is beyond likable readers will enjoy her ability to be human, strong and willing to fight what is right.  She comes across what every woman is looking to become. 
Mathias Costa questions but follows his gut. A likable characters.  The tension to find the killer in time will keep readers up late into the night.
This is a can't miss book and the perfect beginning to a series readers are going to die to get their hands on the book 2.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the advance copy of Allison Brennan The Third to Die!

Hero's Haven (Dark Protectors #11)
Title: Hero's Haven (Dark Protectors #11)

Author: Rebecca Zanetti 

Stars: 3 1\2

Review:
Start off this book and series is all about alpha males, sex and dominance. 
The book bring homes the lost brother who was assumed dead. The Heaven feels as if she has gone crazy as she is always on the run trying to find her peace when her mind is taking her some place different.
The author way of explaining how the supernatural beings belong in the world and are able to move among humans without anyone knows the difference.
The story moves quickly sex happens early on in the story and blood guts and gore as the characters come alive finding each other and hoping to create the peace they so long for. Rebecca Zanetti is able to write some hot and heavy sex scenes, fight scenes that will have readers wanting more.
