Deadly Revenge by Patricia Bradley

It has been a while since I have read a book by Patricia Bradley but I really do love her work so I was elated to receive a copy of her newest release, Deadly Revenge, book 3 in her Pearl River series. Since I haven't read the first two books in the series, I can honestly say Deadly Revenge can be read as a stand-a-lone.

The thing I liked most in this book was the characters. Russel County Deputy Jenna Hart and TBI Agent Maxwell Anderson both endeared themselves to me. They have a past together although the romance was merely sparks and a kiss, but in the current day a slow burn to a sweet romance occurs.

The story started off slow for me, but in time the suspense took off, pulled me in and didn't let go until the last page. I love a good suspense and Deadly Revenge was not a disappointment. I would highly recommend this novel to anyone who enjoys a fast-paced, clean, romantic suspense that will draw you in and hold you until the last page.

On a 5 star scale - 5 Stars!

Over the Edge by Irene Hannon

When I hear the name of Irene Hannon I think about an author of sweet romance novels and suspense novels. While I am a fan of all her books, my favorite is her suspense novels. Her most recent release is Over the Edge, book 2 in her "Undaunted Courage" series.

This book grabbed me from the first page to the very last. A lot of times I can guess who the bad guy is but let me tell you, I never saw the ending coming. What a roller coaster ride I took and enjoyed every single page.

The female protagonist is Lindsey Barnes, who owns a private chef company, making meals for the elite.  She is a trauma survivor that has fully recovered until one day when she finds a dead body in the kitchen of one of her clients. She then hides because she hears someone else in the house...the killer.

The male protagonist is Police Detective Jack Tucker, who enters the story as the detective assigned to the case. He also used to date Lindsey's best friend, that is until her friend died and Lindsey blamed him. This makes for a not so pleasant start for either of them.

Miss Hannon has created two well developed, strong-willed characters in Lindsey and Jack and I fell in love with both of them.

If you love romantic suspense novels, you will find this book will captivate you until the very last page. I highly recommend it!

On a five-star scale - 5 Stars!!!!!
