Super thriller series from Jessie! She's successfully created characters that are more gritty and shady than the O'Hanlon caper series. Jess has proven her ability to branch out. Can't wait for the next book!

I adore this series! The author has done a great job with characters, dialog and magic. They have all been good reads, and the latest is no exception.

Jill Gooder is a Witch P.I., flipping from the human world of Washbridge to the supe world of Candlefield. In this fifth installment in the series, Witch is When The Bubble Burst, takes the reader once more into the life of this quirky witch and P.I.  Withe her nemesis on the police, Susie aka Sushi, gone, Jill is ready to get back to good relations with Detective Jack Maxwell. Of course, that's easier said than done once heiress Amanda is kidnapped and her boyfriend seeks Jill's professional help. With Jake's history of kidnap turned to murder because of a p.i.'s invovlement, it is a tricky situation for Jill. Will she take the case despite Jake's warning to stay out of his investigations? Will the hunky detective ask her out? Will her talking cat/familiar Winky get her evicted from her office building? Will her knitting receptionist, Mrs. V stitch up Jill's level 6 witch Grandma? Or will Mrs. V's old flame light her fire & take her away to a European time share? Can Jill babysit Kathy's kids without disaster?  Grandma's yarn shop, Ever A Wool Moment releases a new product, but does it use magic?  Much hilarity ensues, as usual. Even her ghostly mom needs Jill's skills!  Between Winky's antics & love life, Mrs. V's knitting, Grandma's marketing schemes & her own love life, Jill's life in the human world is complicated and socery isn't always the answer.
Meanwhile in the supe world of Candlefield, Jill's twin cousins Amber & Pearl, continue to create much trouble for themselves & Jill.  The twins' Cuppy C store needs Grandma's marketing skills,  Aunt Lucy has a birthday, Barry the talking dog is nabbed, and Jill's supernatural love interest Drake is back on the scene & needs her professionally!

Phew! Lots going on in this solid installment in this fabulous series, in both human & supernatural planes. Plenty of action, drama and a mystery to solve--all done with snark, 3 dimensional characters and lovely settings in both Candlefield and Washbridge. The author has done a stellar job with this series, making them both fun to read and good mysteries. I enjoy the magical twist--it's well done and thought out.
Highly recommended that you read them all! Like popcorn for the mind. I can't wait for the next one...

I would recommend this series to anyone who loves a good mystery and thriller. The twists and turns and nonstop action make it hard not to read the book in it's entirety in one sitting.

J. D. Robb (Nora Roberts) NEVER disappoints.  I LOVE this series, I LOVE these characters.  So much depth, such fantastic plot development, so many thrills and plenty of action!  If you love policy procedurals, this is the series for you!  And you get a light taste of the future.  Not Syfy, but a look at how we would live our lives in the near future -- tech advancements.  But underneath, it's still a great policy procedural - murder mystery.  Dallas is a superb cop and leader, Roark is a superb partner/mate giving Dallas all the support she needs.  There's even a great sympathetic moment between Dallas and Sommerset, who are usually snipping at each other.  I can't wait to read the next in the series.  I highly recommend the series, but also high recommend that they be read in sequence.  That's not necessary to enjoy each story, but it's necessary to better understand the characters and how they've developed and grown throughout the series.

Coleman does a great job channeling the terrific Robert B. Parker. And, he's confident enough to add dimensions to established characters and even to kill off those who have overstayed their welcome. Yep, I'm a fan and await more in this great Jessie Stone series.

Undercover, fast-paced thriller filled with humor and sex. About time Samantha and Ben hooked up! I love this series! Keep writing Ms Katy, you rock. Maxine and Olivia are the bomb and Skipper is a crazy keeper. I will deal with Harry and Sharon. The side stories are a hoot! I love Goliath the Beagle and the neighbors. A must read caper and I'm so glad I found the first title when I did. Cute titles, hilarious situations, dark crimes, murder and mayhem. Outstanding!

Truly becoming a master in the genre of crime/psych suspense. Her new Protagonist Jessie Coles shares a major characteristics of both her previous heroines but they are definitely well rounded women who have turned personal traumas into personal causes helping others..

Anyone who likes clean suspense thrillers with some romance thrown in will like this series.  It will keep you guessing all the way through.

I love this series! From the very start, you are introduced to Dry Wells, which, basically, brought me the much needed feeling that I can only describe as a Twin Peaks vibe. There's a little murderin' going on and every quirky person in this place is a likely suspect. Although, instead of the straight-laced FBI guy you had in Dale Cooper, you get Mick Callahan, a down on his luck radio shrink with a whole host of personal problems. I've read plenty of thrillers where the protagonist was either a struggling alcoholic or a clinical psychologist, yet I have never encountered a character where it's been pulled off this well. Mr. Shannon obviously places all the cards, from his personal experience, on the table and it truly shows in the character development, throughout the books. Absolutely incredible!

Ms Mullen continues to keep me interested in this series. While on the Cruise ship Bella Constance,  Billy and Jesse continue to do their best PI work. One mystery after another, for this fascinating couple to solve. I wouldn't mind going on this cruise ship and becoming friends with Billy and Jesse. Oops. I almost forgot. This is make believe. Ms Mullen still knows how to bring her characters to life! You should read Jesse Watson's Mysterys. Mystery and some humor.

This book is the third installment of S.D. Skye's J.J. McCall series. J.J. is an FBI agent with a unique gift/curse... when she hears a lie, she itches. The series is a fascinating look at the behind-the-scenes struggles and back-biting in the different Federal (and international) intelligence and espionage agencies. You can really tell this author knows her stuff!

There's action, romance, and non-stop thrills as J.J. and Tony continue unraveling the problems they discovered in the earlier books. Six comes back for his own set of issues to resolve. And...there's a cliffhanger at the end that left this author anxious to read the next installment in this series. Can hardly wait until December!

Ms. Skye does a wonderful job with the character development--they all really come to life! Not only do you get the excitement of a spy thriller, there's the opportunity to watch the characters grow and evolve. I would love to see this series picked up for TV. It would be an awesome action-adventure television series.  4 stars

Deadly Recall is the second book in the outstanding new Jessie Cole series by bestselling author T.R. Ragan. A riveting suspense that will pull you in right from the start, and keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end. With the unique storyline, complex characters, mystery, secrets, lies, humor, and intriguing twists and turns, this emotional roller-coaster of a story is a definite must read. Another fantastic book by Ragan, and a great addition to this incredible series.

I love this new series by Ragan. Jessie Cole is a strong, intelligent, and independent woman who became a private investigator so she could take care of her niece after her sister disappeared years ago (see book #1 for the full story), as well as trying to find out what happened to her sister. Jessie has recently been hired for three big jobs including helping her friend and local reporter Ben (who was introduced in book #1) figure out who he was before the accident that caused him to loose his memory of most everything before the crash, especially since he's been having morbid dreams that seem more like reality.

Needing help to keep up with her many cases, Jessie decides to hire Zee, who was also introduced in the first book, as well as recruit help from her niece and Ben. However, when people start dying, and the dangers are too close to home, she knows that the only way to keep everyone safe is to find out the truth. But will they be able to figure everything out before it's too late? Will Jessie be able to get the answers that Ben's looking for? Or will his life be turned upside-down in ways that he could never imagine? You'll have to read this to find out, but you won't be disappointed!

This book can be read as a stand alone, and although it's not completely necessary to read the previous book prior to this one, I would highly recommend it. The first book introduces some of the main characters in this book, and gives the background information about them, as well as tells the story of what happened to Jessie's sister. They're both excellent stories, and if you're interested in this series, I believe that you will get the most out of it by starting from the beginning. There's also a secondary plot regarding Ben that seems to continue at least through the next book, which is definitely intriguing.

I strongly recommend this book, series, and exceptional author.

I have voluntarily reviewed this arc provided by the publisher via NetGalley.

A serial killer is on the loose.  Mothers and their daughters are being kidnapped.  They are being bought and sold as slaves.  Behind this is a man who calls himself Boxer.  Human trafficking has come to peaceful Cocoa Beach, where more bodies are being found.  Mary Mills soon gets on the trail while her evil brother, Blake, is preparing to attack her.  She's the only one standing who can take his freedom away.  She seeks help from her 7th Street Crew.  This is a mind-blowing thriller I refused to put down.  The whole series is awesome.  It's also interesting as to where Willow Rose gets her ideas, basically from facts.  She's awesomely knowledgeable!
