Really enjoyed this read immensely. A nice twist on the plague effect, wasn't expecting that. So I read through 0 to 2 set and could not put it down. I can't wait to the continued sagas. Great job !!!

Loved this! It was truly like an action-packed movie that unfolded on the pages! FANTASTIC!!!
Liliana (lily) Brewster is one bad ass heroine. She's a transporter on a mission. She has a plan, a plan for revenge that's been five years in the making and it'll all come to fruition in 6 days. Marcelle (Marc) De Sant is a mercenary. He's been hired by a Russian Bratva to steal diamonds from a Liberian gang. And then it's Lily's job, the gorgeous redhead that he's only just met, to transport them out of Africa and deliver them to the Pachkin of the Bratva in Russia. Marc has three days and then he's out. Of course, things don't go according to plan. All plans go to s*** as all hell breaks loose.

So much trouble for a bunch of rocks.

Lily and Marc quickly go from acquaintances to an unforgettable one-night stand to enemies in a matter of hours as one's been set up and thinks the other had something to do with it.

These two were formidable together even when they were throwing punches and drop kicking each other.

They were like magnets, fighting against each other one minute, then stuck together the next. Whatever it was, it was tangible, and powerful, and very real, and present.

Along the road to hell, a hitman and friend to Marc shows up, Kingsley Law, and he just adds to this deliciously, action riddled tale! The dialogue between Marc and Law had me in stitches and the opposites of these two reminded me of my fav hotties from Cinemax's Strike Back (casting is a nod to these boys). What was also hilarious was Kingsley's flirting with Lily to the utter maddness of Marc.

This was seriously an action-packed adventure with guns, fighting, car chases, explosions, witty banter and bickering, and unbelievable off-the-charts sex! This was so much fun to read and I loved every second of it.

His kiss was just like the man behind it; blunt, forceful and breathtaking. All her breaths, all her air.
As much as they want to deny it, both Lily and Marc are drawn to each other and even though relationships are unheard of in the world they live in, they both explore the idea of doing just that. You'd think as this draws to a conclusion, a little vacation would be just the perfect thing...but instead we get an ending that left me spitting nails and looking forward to Lily's new plan for vengeance. I'm so glad I have Out of Plans because I'm ready to get down and dirty!

If you like action, you will love this book.  Ty Patterson does an excellent job of weaving an action-packed ,story.  Zebadiah Carter is the main character.  A really really really tough dude.  Interestingly enough there are no romantic interludes.  If anything, he s too tough, which is the only negative point.  Of course there are some murders and a few rapes (no details).  Zeb has an unmarried sister who has interesting neighbors.  And a dishonest politician (imagine that).

If you like jaw dropping action, this will be a good ok for you.  Kudos to Ty.

WOW !!!  So much action in one book !!!!  I almost need a nap to catch my breath !!!  TELSA  is a most unusual heroine !!!  She is so sweet and tough at the same time ...sometime I laughed and other times I was  in tears !!!  MASON is the main hero but the entire team is really tough while still funny and caring !!!  What a group of men !!! I thought her father could have been a little more involved but maybe that was part of his character also ..A little disappointing !!Daniel sure seemed to have 9 lives but I loved how he ended !!!  When the story ended it was a little of a "cliff hanger"...who was so determined to have her program ???  Guess it could have been any foreign country but they sure seemed to have inside knowledge !!!  I am looking forward to the next book about HAWK !!!  Thank you for the wonderful entertainment !!!!

This story was a real east/west treat for me! Lots of action and intrigue, a real page turner...kept me up way beyond my bedtime several nights!! Kyle Achilles is a multi-faceted character, a world class athlete, on top of a brilliant, focused and feeling hero. Tim Tigner tells the tale with intriguing knowledge and plenty of international excitement. Beautiful, smart and high action women round out the cast of characters. Can't wait to get my hands on the next installment!!

This book is great, with the way the action moves along so quickly and yet can keep the reader understanding what is happening every second. I could see it all in my head, every character, all the action, all the time. I had to do some weapon internet searches, but that was actually fun. So, what is better than a group of friends so devoted to each other and to their cause, so much so that they would die for their each other and for the chance to prevent a terrible terrorist attack on their beloved country.
 And there are the children--who better as a perfect example of innocence that needs protection? The descriptions of the different locations is great, whether meeting at a cozy restaurant, swaggering into a casino or entering the gray emptiness of the sandy mountains of Afghanistan?
 I don't like dark reading, so I was pleased to see the positive way in which his characters make their serious death-defying decisions, accepting the consequences while hoping that good will always overcome evil.
Anyway, it's fun to read, never boring and my only question about the book is the introduction of this "thing" at the end. I thought the book was going one way and then all of a sudden it turns and goes a different directions and i could feel my head snap--huh? Because of the introduction of this, I found that I couldn't write a review until I had read the second book in the series, Brainrush II, to give me more information about that all of a sudden "Huh?" moment
--Well, book two didn't ease my concern either, so now I guess I have to read the third and final book in this series to know if I like the "Thing" factor or not. So I will wait with all of you to see what is to become of Jake--can he still be the man we grew to love, or is he doomed to a life too different to make him ever be just 'one of the guys' again? Will he even survive to be with his Francesca? Will the 'Thing' steal him from us all?
Mighty fun book. Creative ideas. I'd recommend it to anyone who likes a good action/ adventure and has the patience to read all 3 books to get the whole story! I'm guessing it will be worth it!

I have loved every one of these action packed, fast paced books & have come to love all of the characters. They are so well written & researched, & make us feel like we are there, in the thick of the action. I can get worn out just reading these fantastic adventures...Of course, I end up not sleeping, so that could very well be one reason I am worn out!

Snag the first book....It is free! It will not disappoint. Then read them all in order, even though they are each a standalone book, you have to know & love every one of these characters.

The Charon Unit is a fast paced action adventure from page one. Rick sets the stage very quickly in this "good guy vs bad guy", "Cop vs Gang" story. The way the book is written, keeps many story lines active simultaneously. The attention to detail adds an element to the book that makes this fictional book seem very real. I love the vivid descriptions of the cars, weaponry, and of course the cigars.
This is a must read if you are into  action, as well as strategic crime fighting. The Charon Unit should come with a mandatory warning that states "this book is highly addictive" by starting to read this book, all else will take a back seat until completion!
I look forward to the upcoming movie, but I have a feeling a movie is going to leave me wanting more, I would like to see The Charon Unit every week as a TV Series. Every week would be a glimpse into the elite team led by Rob and Rico, fighting gang warfare with the help of Travis and his IT guys and BS making great use of what the team brings him as far as automobiles. And of course an action adventure wouldn't be life like if there wasn't a little romance in the story lines, it seems that by being forbidden, the relationships are more likely to blossom!

4 hours and 363 pages later, holy moley Mitani-San!!!!

People  this book is action packed from the very first chapter, could NOT put this book down!!  If you like action, if you like intrigue, if you like cars, this is a must-read!

This just leaves me with one question for you, Sam:  When does the movie come out?!

"Action-packed" is putting it mildly!  This triilogy is quite original.....and I like the characters.....you really feel like you know them
by the end!  The forward motion and pace of these books is exhilarating.

Mr. Bard has a great imagination.....and I'll look forward to reading other books of his.
