Narrated by Amy McFadden & Sebastian York Trigger Warning: domestic/child abuse I have enjoyed the previous books in the Aces & Eights series, so I was looking forward to Ace of Spades. Unfortunately, it mostly didn’t work for me on a story level. In the past Sandra Owens’s books have been very successful for me…
Cop movies are notorious for not presenting the realities of policing. Instead, they have a tendency to show a misfit loner or two solving cases that procedure would have prevented them from ever clearing and thus triumphing over ‘the system’. While the American police force has come increasingly under fire for the problems caused by…
This was a total goat screw of a situation. That line perfectly describes this fantastic romantic suspense novel. In short, Navy SEAL Rescue is a story of an Assyrian doctor who’s caught up in the war in Syria and Iraq and manages to escape the Da’esh, the Islamic Front, with a daring trek over the…
Narrated by Michelle Ford I’ll admit that I picked up Ring of Lies mainly because it’s narrated by Michelle Ford, someone whose work I’ve listened to and enjoyed on several occasions. The story synopsis tells of a woman who, after the death of her husband, gradually discovers that he wasn’t the man she’d believed him…
I’m a voracious reader, and as such am always on the lookout for new authors to try. After all, there’s nothing quite like discovering a new and talented writer. So, when I read the blurb for Sister-in-Law, the first novel by M.R. Morgan, I decided to give it a shot. Unfortunately however, I won’t be…
I’ve read and enjoyed a handful of HelenKay Dimon’s romantic suspense novels, some of them m/f, and some m/m, so I know pretty much what to expect from her; a fast-paced, energetic and steamy story that is perhaps longer on action than it is on romance – which is exactly what I got. Dirty Games…
Narrated by Teri Schnaubelt I had success last year listening to Mary Burton’s The Last Move. Unfortunately, the balance of romance vs. suspense wasn’t to my liking this time – there is hardly any romance – but the suspense was gripping. Detective Theo Mazur is working in San Antonio, Texas, having transferred there six months…
The Woman Left Behind is the best kind of romantic suspense in the sense that the heroine is no damsel in distress requiring rescue but neither is she a beefed up black-ops assassin as are found in so many female-empowered stories of this genre. Instead she’s somewhere in between; she’s basically tech support. Communications. But after…
As a longtime fan of Jackie Ashenden’s writing, you’ll find that most of my reviews for her books feature words like ‘Intense!’ and ‘Steamy!’. This applies whether she’s writing erotic romances like her Living In … and Lies We Tell series or riveting romantic suspense like her Nine Circles series. I’ve come to expect a…
Narrated by Kaleo Griffith I’d forgotten how much I enjoy Kaleo Griffith’s narrations and it was so much fun to catch up with the I-Team gang in the recently-released-on-audio, Dead by Midnight. I admit I bought the book when it first came out but it has languished on the TBR of Doom. As my TBL…
