An Intense, captivating, beautifully written, and smoothly flowing story stole my heart.
Despite being co-written with Josie Jade the tale has a strong Janie Crouch voice to it, a love story filled with drama, trouble, healing of hearts, and mending of past wounds. I loved just about everything about the story, the premises, the characters, the built-up of the danger and drama, the angst that was tangible on each moment, the sweetest, most tenderly passionate romance that stays with you and lingers in your mind and heart. It is written from the first point of view, from dual sides of the tale, the hero and the heroine, thus the 'just about' when loving the book. Though I do admit, it worked here, so maybe I am getting over my dislike of the 1st POV. Resting Warrior Ranch is a new series, that delivers from the start with a powerful storyline, with likable and charming characters, relationships that go deep into the emotions, under your skin. I loved how much there was suspense from the danger and threat from the start of the tale, yet the built-up to the crescendo was fiercely intense. From the beautifully painted Montana scenery to the life-threatening menace and violence, to the recovery and healing, and most of all, the preciously luscious, adorably sweet, and delightfully captivating story of Lucas and Evelyn; Montana Sanctuary is an appealing and pleasing tale from the first to the last scene delivering strongly on all fronts. ~ Five Spoons

I'm a sucker for K-9 suspense stories, I love the military brotherhood, I adore passionate, flirty romance, and pets in books just give another element to dote - and Sandra Owens delivers on all these fronts with great flow, flare, and fire that makes an impression!
With lots of delightful humor and banter that made me chuckle out loud, the author entertained and charmed me with her smoothly flowing tale. The ardent attraction that flared between Jack and Nichole was deliciously appealing and irresistible. The connection between them was real and true, no doubt about that. The deeper feelings developing and the passion igniting, it all made me smile and sigh and swoon, it was so enchanting with a close second the connection between the doggies and their owners. The threat that was lurking on every corner, the obstacles in Jack's mind that he had to conquer, the challenges Nicole and Jack faced, it all was wrapped around a story that captured my mind. Operation K-9 Brothers is the first book in the series, that I am looking forward to reading and devouring. ~ Five Spoons
What an amazing thrill ride and an emotional roll-a-coaster Virgo was! All the feels are on the surface, the emotions are intense, and the suspense is fierce, even cruel at times, yet nothing overly gory.
I held on, white-knuckling through the twists and turns, loving every moment of it; savoring the sweet, delighting in the passion, relishing catching the bad guys, and cheering on for the survival of the brave, strong, and badass heroine and her truly worthy hero. Bronwyn and Sarge have one of those connections that makes you believe in soulmates. The way they get each other and understand the trials of their past and challenges of their present, accept each other just as they are - it was tangible, unique in a way that is just them, and so brilliantly, heart-wrenchingly beautiful, it took my breath away. It doesn't matter what is going on around me or in my life, Crouch's stories captivate and beguile my mind completely. The suspense in this story builds up realities that are freighting and chilling, both globally and personally, making the protagonists bonder what are they willing to sacrifice to protect and save their loved ones. Zodiac Tactical is proven to be one of my all-time favorite romantic suspense series, and that is saying a lot. The stories will entertain, intimidate, charm and delight, make you swoon, and make you curl your toes with the tension - and heal any kind of reading slump you find yourself in. Highly recommended!! ~ Five Spoon
 WOW! I don't remember if I have ever cried so hard for a literary heroine as I wept for Wavy's fate. This story hit hard and made an impact like I wasn't prepared for. When I heard that Janie Crouch is coming out with a new series I was elated like a kid at Christmas. Even the change in POV into the first tense didn't put me off, and I admit, here it gave the story continuous intensity and flow that took a hold of my mind, making the tale unputdownable. An impressive feat of excellent storytelling, a gripping tale of horror and fright, an ardent story of love that has time and space to deepen and grow, a team that is ready to sacrifice for their mission and for each other - Aries has it all, it blew me away with the depth of the emotions between Ian and Wavy, with the intense terror of human trafficking, with the potent fast tempo of the fight for their lives, for what is right, and the absolute trust that bonds the mates of Zodiac Tactical team. Aries brings to the pages few characters from the past series by the author, and the tale has such a natural, smooth flow, emitting the kind of insights rarely seen at the first installment into a series. I loved this story so hard, I'm intrigued by the Zodiac Tactical team members, looking forward to getting to know them and read about the troubles they face and soulmates they find. Yes, I am enamored, and I just might re-read Aries again just to figure out what are the horoscope signs of the rest of the crew. ~ Five Spoons  USA TODAY bestselling author Janie Crouch writes what she loves to read: passionate romantic suspense.

 The Young Adult genre with its angst and turmoil meets the intensity and danger of the Romantic Suspense and sweetness and adoration of the Romance novels creating just the perfect kind of adorable, enjoyable, and entertaining tale. Jess O’Conner and Ethan Bollinger have charm and enamored all the Linear Tactical readers since they first walked into the pages of the beloved series. Watching them grow older and closer to each other has been endearing, witnessing their tenser love melted hearts. I loved how this story wrapped up the Linear Tactical series while giving fresh clips of the future years of the characters. The first-person POV first took me by surprise, but it fits well into the turbulent young love story. The tale has a touch of thrilling tension of suspense, but mainly it is a beautiful, ardent tale of forever kind of love, family, and friends.

What a thrilling conclusion to the series that has captured my mind and heart. The Blaze has it all: edgy and intimidating suspense, loyal and true friendships, tender yet ardent love story, and at the end, it is all about unity, family, love, and forever, just like each of these riveting Linear Tactical books have been before. Kendrick and Neo have that geeky chemistry in their connection of their smarter than most brains, but there is nothing geek-like in their physical attraction and passionate bond as they finally come together. The loyalty despite the betrayals, the forgiveness, and understanding that comes with love, the building of trust as the foundation of their relationship - I was enamored and wanted to savor every moment of their beautiful love story. The other part of the tale was the development of Dorian and Ray's family. I enjoyed seeing the growth in both of them and the wonders love and the Linear Tactical family has conjured in them. The way the author talked about adopted children, the love one has - and develops - for them, as they are part of you and meant to be your family was palpable and heartfelt. While I'm having a hard time letting go of the Linear Tactical family, the epilogue in the Blaze was more of a prologue for the new series to come and I admit, I am intrigued!

 “This is bad,” she breathed, letting the phone drop onto the cushion next to her. “What am I going to do?” She didn’t have a summer job lined up, the way she usually did. As a fourth-grade teacher, she had summers off and used the time to get a job to supplement her income. It was how she’d managed to scrape together the down payment for her small condo. She’d moved in nearly a year ago and loved every inch of the place. She was going to use the Mimi house-sitting money and the rental income for her condo to pay for her Italy trip next year. Postponing it was not an option. Two years ago she and her fiancé of three years had broken up. Before that, her best friend had been diagnosed with kidney disease—the kind that would kill her if she didn’t eventually get a transplant. Nissa had firsthand knowledge that life didn’t always turn out how you expected or wanted, so putting things off was taking a serious chance of losing out. Something she wasn’t willing to risk. She’d been dreaming about going to Italy since she was fourteen years old. She’d devoured guidebooks, watched travel videos on YouTube and had planned and replanned her stay. Next year, she was spending her thirtieth birthday in Italy. The problem was, she’d just lost her funding. Oh, she was putting aside a little every month, but living in the Seattle area was expensive and it wasn’t as if she had a six-figure salary. The summer money was how she was going to make the trip happen. She leaned back against the cushions and considered her options. Obviously, she would have to get a different job. It was already late June, so she might not have a lot of options, what with competing with high school and college students for the best ones. Regardless, she would find something. The more pressing problem was where she was going to live for the next two months.  #1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Mallery writes heartwarming and humorous novels about the relationships that define women's lives—family, friendship, romance.

A delightful and heartfelt, ardent yet sweet, definitely entertaining tale of lost love reignited in the midst of family chaos and grandma in trouble.
Prepare yourself with plenty of time and hydration as you start to read this novel, it is unputdownable, fun, emotional, passionate, intense, with a taste of danger and a dash of suspense. It is all those things I love about a great romance novel, it testifies to the deep emotions that the right one ignites again no matter the time passed in between you, it shows the importance and the dysfunction of a family, the good sides and the crazy mess, yet without them, we would be lost. The connection between Hadley Dalton and Leyton Jameson is one hot sizzling, tangible force. I loved how they reconnected as soon as their eyes met. Yet it was real, it was raw and powerful, and passionate, and they swept me off my feet, for sure. Hadley is a strong woman. She is not perfect; there are mistakes she has made, there are losses she has faced, the pain and hurt are still strong, yet she is making it, one day at the time. I liked her, I admired her, and I cheered for her, and I swooned for the way Leyton Jameson knew exactly when to support her, when to listen to her, when to protect her, and when to let her deal with her stuff while having her back. I have loved all the Jameson brothers but Layton, he's something special. Another delightfully delicious family saga from Ms. Fossen that swipes the readers off their feet, makes them laugh and smile, and sigh and even tear up, bringing all the feels and troubles a family can face mixed with all the joy and jubilee one can experience. An entertaining and satisfying read - like the whole series has been - that I can highly recommend. ~ Five Spoons
Scout as a novella packed so more punch, it had more development, heat, and freshness both on the action side as well on the relationship and romance side than some novels do. And now we get an extended novel-length of a story for Nadine and Wyatt and five spoons are not nearly enough to rate their story that still felt fresh and enticing and exciting.
This story is an absolutely delightfully ardent, riveting, endearing tale that captivated my mind and heart. I adored Nadine, she is one of those characters you want to be friends with. She has her hurdles, she is not the cookie-cutter romance novel heroine, she is even better: she is like one of us readers! She struggles with her size, she was doing social distancing before it was a thing, yet she has strength, she is smart, she is capable, she is a sweetheart with a caring, generous heart. She is just the kind of relatable, strong, lovable, and able heroine that Janie Crouch writes so well, and those ladies are one of the reasons why I love her books. And I couldn't imagine a better mate to Nadine than Wyatt. Just the fact that they have been penpal's for a year won me over, because while corresponding by writing you get to know the other person on a completely different, deeper level than with casual meetings in busy places while dating. They have a solid, deep foundation to start to build upon and the palpable attraction between them sizzles. Without a fail, I loved every moment of this compelling, high-tempo, gripping tale of fighting for your life and for your future in the mids of intense suspense and ardent romance. The Linear Tactical series is a must-read for romantic suspense readers! ~ Five Spoons!

This story about love, life, family, grief, and finding your soulmate hits all the feels and senses, it enthralls and entertains.
The author writes about the emotions so vividly I noticed myself gripping to each twist and nodding with an agreement; 'that is exactly how it feels' while inhaling each word. I loved the connection between Rose Daniels and Logan Heath. They had known each other all their lives, they grew up together, they faced the ultimate loss together, they had worked side by side for years, they knew each other as no one else could even imagine. And now, in a new way that rocked their whole existence. At first, the 'she is virgin and he is ladies man' theme made me sigh deeply but with Rose and Logan's story it fit, it was such a natural part of her assistance and her personality and part of her growing experience, that I soon got over it. A sensual and emotional tale of loving and living in a large extended family, with palpable deep feels and a-ha-moments, growing and thriving while falling in love, finding your place in life, and flourishing with the newfound happiness... Yet another tale from Maisey Yates that left me completely enamored with the characters and world she creates! ~ Four Spoons with the teaspoon on the side
New York Times and USA Today Bestselling author Maisey Yates lives in rural Oregon with her three children and her husband, whose chiseled jaw and arresting features continue to make her swoon.

Maisey divides her writing time between dark, passionate category romances set just about everywhere on earth and light sexy contemporary romances set practically in her back yard.

An uplifting, inspiring, and entertaining tale of acceptance, family, falling in love and finding your partner. This story made me smile with its pure and sweet turns of the tale.
There is something to be said about the Amish entrepenual skills and determination to succeed. The way the whole crew works together for the good of the family is admirable. I loved the natural and authentic connection between Esther and Gabe. They were like the two parts of one as they worked together, with their interests, and skills. Their desire to better their communication, Gabe's determination to learn sign language, and the research he did to possibly make Esther's life easier were endearing. They talked about the problems they faced, they apologized when needed, they forgave any crossings, and learned from their mistakes. An inspiring, endearing, and captivating sweet tale of love filled with delightful romance and informing bits of life and challenges a deaf person faces. Life lessons that can be learned from, gaining an understanding that can be extended to also those who do not fluently understand the language spoken around them. ~ Four Spoons with a teaspoon on the side From Harlequin Love Inspired:

Can they outsmart a killer
…who’s already escaped justice? The Kentucky Ripper is in prison…or is he? When no one will help Teagan Ray find the man who really abducted her, former profiler Bryson Anton agrees to investigate. But soon their search takes two jolting turns—brutal attacks from a cunning suspect…and a powerful mutual attraction. |
|
An exciting thrill-ride from the first page to the last! The story enthralled and entertained me so much so that I didn't want to put the book down. I loved absolutely everything about it, the action, the suspense, the romance, the connection between all the main characters, the team, and the brotherhood of the Justice Seekers, the banter between Teagan Ray and Bryson Anton, and especially the woundedness of the hero and the heroine.
Rarely are the heroes and heroines of romance novels physically impaired, but here he is; Bryson is tough to the bone and more capable than most heroes, and he is in a wheelchair at times. As mobility challenged person myself, finally there was a main character that has the same challenges as I do. I understood him on a different level, his moodiness, his attitude, and what he stood against each day.
Teagan was a fun and humorous heroine. She was full of life, she had endured so much, but she was dealing with it, facing the challenges head-on.
The action is hair-raising intense, the images in my mind were sharp and vivid, the heightened fear palpable.
The story is build so that the plot allows the love story to develop, and the characters to grow. There is not an aspect of the tale that I didn't enjoy and the Justice Seekers is a series I can highly recommend, just be prepared for an addictive, explosive, tension and danger-filled entertainment

Brilliant. Breathtaking. Intense. What a way to start a new series, it left me gasping for air and yearning for the next installment, while made a huge impact. WOW!
Everything about the story is intense: the tempo of the tale, the relationships between the whole cast and crew, the tangible connection of the hero and heroine, the love scenes, the environment the story unfolds in, the McKenzies family, and the work they do, the story unfolds like an explosive thunderstorm that puts you on the edge at the same time as you can just admire the beauty of it. You have to pay attention and focus your mind, read the nuances, and interpreted the twists and turns of the plot cause the McKenzies are moving at their own speed and do not temper it for anyone.
Sterling (Star) Parson and Cade McKenzie have such smoldering chemistry that I am surprised it didn't melt my Kindle. The connection between them is natural, it was like they were meant to be together, and they had been on a journey to meet each other all their lives. Their destinies were entwined, and their feelings grew authentically. With the detailed, ardent love scenes the readers get to witness their emotions get involved and feelings grow, alluring, and dazzling, they captured my mind.
The riveting suspense and up close and personal action are palpably edgy and horrifyingly intimidating as they are fighting against human traffickers, the lowest scum on earth. The culprits are creepy, and the violence is unavoidable, the fight is fierce, and the women are right there, in the middle of it as well, strong, capable, and equal partners in the fight for justice.
This thrill ride went directly to my emotions with the deep, heart-stirring feels, with the strong family connection, and the loyalty of the team. I was as much charmed and infatuated by the romance as I was on the edge and riveted by the danger and threat.
A marvelous start for the trilogy, a pleasing and satisfying romantic suspense story

One family's long-buried secrets could be the key to solving a shocking murder...
With the holiday season in full swing, Paige Coker is planning a surprise party for her father's retirement when she finds troubling documents that indicate she might not be his daughter at all. Her search for answers is derailed when the event caterer is killed and she becomes the prime suspect. Her alibi is weak, and the police have surveillance footage of a woman at the scene - a woman who looks exactly like Paige. Desperate to clear her name, she reluctantly agrees to cooperate with the private investigator hired by her father. As a Guardian Agency protector, Carter Oakes has worked his share of sensitive cases. Upon meeting Paige, it's obvious she's hiding something and distressed over far more than the death of the caterer. Earning her trust is a slow process, one that's thrown into overdrive when someone tries to kill her. With her life hanging in the balance, Paige and Carter must unravel the impossible mystery of these DEADLY REFLECTIONS. |
|
Oh, how I enjoyed this story, it was just what I needed and wanted to enjoyably escape for a few hours.
The Guardian Agency stories are some of my favorites because there is the perfect balance between the love story and danger and suspense. They are shorter in length and have rescued me from many reader-slumps over time.
Carter Oakes is a smart, kind, and considerate gentleman, who protects and solves problems for a living, and can be tough and rough if the job requires it. And Paige Coker can use all the help offered in the situation she is in.
The fact that Paige is in serious trouble was intriguing, and that the detective who was focusing on her was her friend added another level of thrill to the tale.
I liked the connection between Paige and Carter, it was natural, it was tangible, and it was believable. They clicked on many different levels, and I truly reveled them two together.
The stress is high, the solutions are out of the box, the threat is real, and the danger finds them no matter how well they hide.
A thrill ride of a suspense tale mixed with a sweet love story is the perfect read for a cold winter night, it is a riveting, emotional, and delightfully captivating story.

The Guardian Agency stories are some of my favorites because there is the perfect balance between the love story and danger and suspense. They are shorter in length and have rescued me from many reader-slumps over time.
Carter Oakes is a smart, kind, and considerate gentleman, who protects and solves problems for a living, and can be tough and rough if the job requires it. And Paige Coker can use all the help offered in the situation she is in.
The fact that Paige is in serious trouble was intriguing, and that the detective who was focusing on her was her friend added another level of thrill to the tale.
I liked the connection between Paige and Carter, it was natural, it was tangible, and it was believable. They clicked on many different levels, and I truly reveled them two together.
The stress is high, the solutions are out of the box, the threat is real, and the danger finds them no matter how well they hide.
A thrill ride of a suspense tale mixed with a sweet love story is the perfect read for a cold winter night, it is a riveting, emotional, and delightfully captivating story.
