Loved Sam & Sophie's action packed story
341266
No Place to Run is my favourite of the entire KGI series to date and I have read 10 of the 11 KGI stories and I have to admit I have read this book probably now about 3 times.

I first started this series with book #3 being Garrett's story and then went back to read The Darkest Hour KGI #1 before jumping back up to #4 and although it did not bother me it is probably better to read this in order especially as it develops and some stories are slightly linked later on especially with Shea and Grace the two sisters (their stories are #4 and #5).

Sam and Sophie have great chemistry and the continuous action and suspense in this story keeps it flowing at a great pace.

Marlene Kelly their mother was wonderful and I adored her immediate nurturing of Sophie who had an awful upbringing under her fathers regime.

I loved the way the three brothers Donovan, Sam and Garrett find Sophie and then look after her along the way as it gives you a great feeling of brotherhood and the Kelly family.

The ending chapters give you lots of action with the wonderful HEA and declarations of love between the two main characters. You will then want to look forward to Book #3 Hidden Away, Garrett's story where Sophie gives birth as it will provide you with wonderful moments.

Liam is the next book in the Rylee epilogue series, which is a follow up to the ever popular Rylee Adamson Tracker series.  The book is from Liam's point of view, as he takes off on his part of the quest to save both the Ogre triplets and, in turn, the world. I loved it. If you you are new to this series, I highly suggest that you begin with the Tracker series. Mark on your calendar a binge reading weekend. Trust me, you'll need that time to devour all the action packed goodness.

Love, love, loved it. Did I say that three times? Yes, I did. I loved that we got a glimpse inside of what Liam is thinking and what is going on with him. I think we tend to read Rylee and assume that Liam has it all together in his calm, cool and strong manner but we forget that he's gone through a bunch of life changes along with Rylee. One of them being his new body. When I first looked at the cover, I wondered why Liam wasn't on the cover? Then I remembered his body changed too.

The story is action packed, with adventure and new characters coming out. I love that there are tie ins with the old story. As well there are crossovers with the Elemental series. I'm loving seeing the thoughts and view points of other characters as more stories are released. Stay tuned!

No Place To Run by Maya Banks is an intense story of romance and suspense.

Sophie Lundgren had been on the run for months. Men who worked for her father were hot on her trail and Sophie only had one person left to protect her. Sophie knew her former lover Sam Kelly would protect her once he found out she was carrying his child. But would Sam forgive her when he found out the truth about Sophie?

Sam Kelly never strayed off the path before on a mission with KGI until he met Sophie. His focus should have been on his job but thoughts of Sophie kept flooding his brain. Suddenly Sophie  reappears after a several months absence, nearly drowning in the lake by Sam's cabin.

Sam is shocked to reunite with Sophie, the pregnancy alone boggles his mind but her story of her family threatens everything he holds dear.

Can Sam trust Sophie and her story or will her enemies take the matters out of both their hands?

No Place to Run is a fast ride of emotion and terror. The men of the Kelly Group are tough as nails but are tender to those they love. Sam Kelly is the perfect example of a strong but sensitive man. His and Sophie relationship grows and chances as they really learn more about each other. You will not be able to put this book down once you start it. I am so glad I found this series.  Bring on the next KGI agent.

If there is such a thing as a playboy enforcer in the vampire world, then Aiden Afflack is just that.  At first, most people would see nothing in Aiden besides his good looks and his love of having a good time, but once you look below the surface, Aiden's deadly skill in hunting and taking out rogue vampires has made him one of the deadliest enforcers that Dr. Delano Bowen has.

Sam Shea is known worldwide for her breathtaking pictures.  Even though most of the world believes she is a man is beside the point.  Sam just has this ability to know when and where to be in order to take those pictures of nature that will have you holding your breath.  However, this last time she goes where her dreams tell her to find not a crazy storm, but a sexy man who has something that just draws her in.

Aiden knew of Sam's name, but until he saw her watching him, he had just assumed that Sam Shea was a man because of the pictures.  When Sam and Aiden do finally meet in person, she is out to get him arrested and it's not any prettier the second time they meet.  However, when Aiden realizes that Sam's abilities can help him, he isn't about to let her deny his request that they work together.  The partnership is definitely more in Aiden's favor than Sam's.  The passion that has sprung up between them flares hot and fast as their partnership goes forward.  That passion doesn't stop the fierce fights when the hunting turns dangerous and both have to reassess their actions.  Finally, out on one last mission both Aiden and Sam will learn who is behind the new attacks and discover a way to save the day and their passion.

An enforcer and a locator discover that fate has their future and passion already figured out.  Aiden and Sam find this out first hand in Nightfall.  At first, I wasn't a fan of how Aiden forced Sam's agreement but I could see that Sam was no one's push over.  I learned the answer to Sam's steel backbone and Aiden's decision to become a vampire and an enforcer as their story unfolded.  Both of their histories had me hoping that their passion would give them both all the love they had missed.  I was once again about ready to smack Aiden for how he was acting towards Sam when his eyes were thrust wide open.  Their last mission had me on the edge of my seat with all the danger, passion and raw emotions that leaped out from the pages.  Their future together was everything I could have wished for them and had me knowing that I would be pulling out this book very soon again to re-read their journey towards it.  Nightfall takes two strong and sexy characters and takes their journey towards love through a trail off danger and passion.  If you can't tell yet, it also is a story that I just had to Joyfully Recommend as a must read.

If you would like to meet Dr. Delano Bowen and his finance, Ainsley, and learn how they came together, you will want to check out The Merzetti Effect.

Samantha Towle has done it again with another fantastic story. I read this book in one sitting and Sam didn't disappoint.
Revved has it all....the perfect mix of gorgeous cocky hero, feisty & strong heroine, fantastic banter, swoon worthy moments, hotness, angst, heartbreak, humor and awesome secondary characters.
I also loved that this book was a standalone.

So this is nice little action packed novella.  If you read the series you will know the characters.  I have read a few books in the series, so I wasn't completely lost.
This follows Jared and Sugar, Parker and Lexi and the introduction to Bishop O'Kane

Jared Westin(Boss Man) is looking to add some new recruits to the team.  While Parker is look into their backgrounds using his skill.  Jared has them under surveillance, watching and scrutinize there every move.  But his wife has other plans, she wants her and Lexi in on the action.  Should Jared let his pregnant wife in on the action or deny her?
What about Parker?  Will he talk Lexi out of it or she win him over?

Sugar and Lexi are off on an undercover operation, only things don't go easy or as planned...The Russian mob has other ideas.  Soon the girls find themselves in an whirl wind of possible danger.  With the help of possible new recruit Bishop O'Kane they may get themselves out of the line of fire or find themselves on the chopping block.
Parker is known for being calm, cool and collected. He assessed every situation with accuracy and knew what could go wrong, but when it came to his wife...everything was up in the air...she was the game changer.  She's the one he cares about helping.  So he goes undercover to help rescue her.  But can he get to her in time?

I liked the little glimpse into the possible new hire Bishop.  He seems to have a bit of humor to him and of course the strong alpha male.  I think he will be a good addition to the team and look forward to his story.

If you like action, hot romance and some lol moments you will love this.  The chemistry between Parker and Lexi definitely heats up as well as Sugar and Jared.  I found myself chuckling at Sugar and her mouth.  She's feisty and I adored her!  She's a kick butt no nonsense girl.  I really enjoyed seeing Jared show his emotional side.  They way he felt pride and love for his family.  Both him and Sugar seem to realize that their fairytale life was just getting started and they fought hard for it.

Samantha Caine woke up on a beach with amnesia eight years ago.  She doesn't remember that she was once the most lethal assassin for the United States government.  But Pentecost, a terrorist leader, remembers her well  and he's sending his people after her.  Samantha has to quickly remember  her lethal assignation skills to bat off the intruders that come for her.  One exciting scene that I liked was when her and her partner had to jump  from a two story building to get away from a grenade.  It was about to  explode a few feet away from them.  They were heading right for a frozen  lake.  On the way down they had to whip out their guns and shoot the ice so  they'd be able to break through.  This broke their fall so they wouldn't  break their lags after hitting the ice.  This is a FANTASTIC book!  I  couldn't put it down.  It has non-stop action all the way to the end.  I  highly recommend that you read this book.  This review is written by Dustin  Henwood

~ 4 Heir of the Dog Stars ~

Heir of the Dog is book two in the Black Dog series by Hailey Edwards. We are thrown back into Thierrys life, with all the action-packed adventure.

My first impression: I thought I was missing a book or something from the way it starts, but we soon learn she is a year older, her relationship with Shaw did not work out, and shes hard at work as a Marshal.

Thierry is developing into a kick ass, strong female, who takes no prisoners. She is dragged into Faerie and we get to see what Faerie is like and the political games they play. We learn what being the Black Dogs daughter means and we get a few surprises along the way. She ends up having to make chooses she did not want for herself as her life changes.

A new man enters the picture. Thierry is not quick to trust him and she shouldnt, even though she is attracted to him. But, there is Shaw and what choices she will have to make with him. Thierry is a strong female, but the men in her life are all posers and users and it's sad she keeps going back for more. Not one is worthy of her. Im not sure how I feel about the male relationships in this series.

Heir of the Dog gives us danger at every turn, an unfamiliar world that Thierry must maneuver in, along with her still ever growing powers as they continue to devleop. Action-packed and unique, story that keeps building to move Thierry along. I look forward to continue this series and seeing where things go from here.

You can't help but feel bad for Sam. I know I did. After all the trauma induced, Sam feels that a new start is necessary and takes a job in California continuing as an ATF agent. Surprisingly, he likes his new boss and it's convenient that his boss' sister has a rental...and that is also his landlord. But Kate isn't what he expects when Sam meets her.
Sam is a lawyer...a d**n good one. She's also married to her job. With no time for a relationship, she tried her hardest to steer clear of Sam and anything to do with him, but the pull is too strong. Kate tries to be cautious around Sam, but the pull is too strong for her to resist.
I enjoyed this book. I was gunning for Sam too. And even more than that, I wanted Sam's relationship with his brother to be okay. There are some ups and downs for Sam and Kate, but the trials and tribulations they go through are definitely worth the read. I was new to Rebecca when I started this series, but she's quickly rose to be one of my favorites to read. I can't wait to see what she comes up with next!

I love a great action packed, romantic suspense novel and this definitely qualified. This is the story of Avery Soloman, leader of the secret spec ops team, A-Tac, and Sydney Price, undercover CIA agent. Very emotional story of loss and hope for the future.

Fantastic book in this series of sexy spec ops alpha men and women. This is the last book in the A-Tac series.

Im going to be really honest for a minute and tell you I wasn't the hugest fan of Sam when he tried to steal his brothers girl.  No matter what had transpired between them, it was not okay.  I did love every other aspect of Sam though, he was truly one of the good ones, and he deserved so much more than what life had given him.  I was so happy when I found out Rebecca Shea was giving him his own story and hopefully happiness all his own.

At the end of Bound by Lies we knew there was a mysterious Kate in Sams life, but we had no insight into who she was or what she meant to him and I was DYING to meet this woman he cared for enough to introduce to his brother and the woman hed been in love with.  I was not disappointed in her at all; she was perfect for Sam.  Strong, independent, and smart Kate was everything Sam deserved and more.

Betrayed by Lies wasn't as high action as the two previous books and for that, my heart was very thankful.  Im not sure how much more I could watch Sam go through, hed already had more than his share of trouble throughout his life.  The high action intensity of Broken and Bound was replaced by deeply emotional moments and a scare that would be harrowing for anyone.  I found Betrayed by Lies to be a far more emotionally driven book and I love Rebecca for continuing the intensity of this series without sending my blood pressure through the roof at every page turn.

Rebecca Shea always makes me connect emotionally with her characters.  The way she writes them makes them feel real and flawed and like people Id like to be friends with.  Thats what makes her books so wonderful to read, the care and concern for the characters that she fosters in her readers.  Each of her books leaves me feeling like Ive spent time with a great friend, helping them find their Happy Ever After.

Book two starts immediately where book one ended. I couldn't put it down because I was immediately pulled back into the intensity and emotion.

This was such a amazing story! I love Sidney and Peter together. There was such a roller coaster of emotion going on. I love that Sydney was strong and unselfish and overcame so much. Peter is such a great character and we got to see a whole other side of him in this story. Their conversations and witty banter and playfulness were so real to me.

Their tender moments were beautiful written and several times throughout the book my heart was in my throat. Peter and Sidney's romantic connections to one another were so romantic, sweet, and sensual all rolled into one. I was completely captivated.

Sean and Avery from The Arrangement series are in this book. I think Sean is an interesting, intense character and I'd like to learn more. Peter's whole family is pretty intriguing actually so at this point anything having to do with the Ferro Brothers I want to get my hands on.

The turmoil that went on and the bit of drama and suspense were perfectly mixed in. Thank goodness for Mr. Turkey. He was a fabulous addition to the book. I'm serious about Mr. Turkey - I was laughing out loud and my family was looking at me like I was crazy!

I loved the ending. I was emotionally all over the place with it because it was so intense but I thought it was the perfect ending.

I am such a fan of H. M. Ward! Excellent author!

I love Katie Reus' heroes & heroines!

Bound to Danger, book 2 of the Deadly Ops series, has so many great action scenes to get wrapped up in. And, the incredibly tender moments between Cade and Maria, especially as seen through their written correspondence flashbacks completely sucks you into this couple's story.

Recommended read and series!

I just adore Jack and Sam and Abigail. I so love a romance featuring a ton of smokin' HOT sex, a damsel in distress, and two knights in shinning armor, both determined to keep their woman happy and safe, and so VERY loved. What a great read! Will definitely be checking more of Sophie Oak's books out.
