Flirting with Danger

 In Suzanne Enoch's Flirting with Danger, the first installment in the Samantha Jellicoe romantic suspense series, this enticing novel would keep you thrilled and at the edge of your seat. It all started when Samantha Jellicoe, a cat burglar, was about to steal something in Richard Addison's apartment. Instead, she saved his life when a bomb went off that almost blew him away. After Richard Addison, a British rich man and savvy art collector, came to his senses, he wondered about the elusive lady and had to have her. While Sam went into hiding, she listened to the news reports about the explosion and Googled about Addison before he tracked him down. When he did, they formed an unlikely alliance and partnership to find out who wanted him dead and who ripped him off in fakes. The chemistry between them was palpable hot when they pretended to be dating in the papers, and the lovemaking is off the charts. When she tried to connect the dots and discovered some literal "dead-ends" on who could've targeted her, they talked about their past lives and followed a trial that led right back to Addison's past in London. Though they wouldn't have a future unless something's got to give, he made a proposal she couldn't refuse as he charmed her socks off for a surprising twist in the end.

 This is a great romantic suspense novel that's thrilling and enthralling at the same time. I cared for Sam and how she made the best of the situation that's been thrown at her. When she'd gotten herself into a sticky situation, she looked for an alternate option. I do think she and Addison make an unlikely couple, total polar opposites, who had fallen for each other under undue circumstances. And I could see him growing soft for him as well. I loved the dual locations of Florida and then London in the end. The scenic settings were spectacular and mesmerizing to enter their worlds. The  dual theme of the story are opposites attract and be careful what you've done in the past.

The Silence

 In Kendra Elliott's the Silence, the second installment in the Columbia River romantic suspense series,  this shocking and twisted storyline picked up where the Last Sister left off, months later. It all started for Mason Callahan when he was called at the grisly scene of a disfigured man in his home. They identified him as Reuben Braswell, who was Ava's CI for one of her cases with the FBI. But while her twin sister Jayne's gone missing, she searches for her and recalls her last meeting with Reuben. Then hell had broken loose when there's a shooting at the courthouse when law enforcement officers and federal agents were attacked under assault by deadly weapons. Was the shooting working alone or had a partner? Mason's partner, Ray, was one of the officers who were shot and taken to the hospital. As the manhunt heats up for Ava and Mason, they unravel Reuben Braswell's life and why he was so anti-law enforcement. When tragedy hits close to home for Ava, she needed a closer look to find Jayne and see how she fit into the equation. In the end, while she prepares for her wedding day to Mason, they learn the ice-cold truth on who was the real shooter and why he targeted her family in a life-and-death matter with a standoff in the end. 

This romantic suspense deals with dark subject matters and conspiracy theories that's so twisted to spin your head. I did care about Ava on how she'd dealt with life issues from preparing for her wedding, searching for Jayne, and facing an egotistical hothead like Reuben Braswell. I also cared for Mason who looked after her, his children, his partner Ray and other people. I loved Oregon  as the central location especially near the Columbia River and beyond it for its luscious scenic settings. The theme is respect for others and treat everyone with kindness.

Torch Ginger

 In Toby Neal's Torch Ginger, the 2nd installment in the Lei Crime mystery series, this new caper is so dark and twisted that would keep you on your feet. It all started for Lei, who had transferred to the island of Kaua`i  and is new to the island. She receive a call about a robbery case that had later spiraled out of control case on the island of Kaua`i as the newest detective of the HPD. She's new to the island and received a call about a robbery. From there, it spiraled out of control when she finds a human bone and discovered a dozen missing people related to a cult. That's when she meets Alika Wolcott, while she's torn and deals with her mixed feelings with her former fiancĂ© and her feelings for Alika. She tried to put him past her, but she can't help it. She also deals with the return of her father being released in prison, and as they bond, he joins a halfway house for rehabilitation. With all of this swirled around her, Lei goes undercover when the FBI joins in to take over the reins in the case. And the closer she gets to knowing the truth, the more dangerous it would be to take down the cult leader with her own life in the end. 


This was a fantastic second book in the series. I remembered I read and loved Blood Ginger a few years ago. I cared about Lei on how she would deal with her feelings for two men and how she would handle her father's return and working on a day job. I loved how she took the initiative and became her own person. Keiki is a cute dog. I've thought Alika might be a perfect match for her, but things turned out differently late in the end. I loved the Hawaiian backdrop of Kaua'i and how the scenic settings pop for the mesmerizing locations. The theme is to follow your heart and don't be misled by others.


If you love heart-stopping action, plenty of intense drama, lots of suspense and majestic mystery, check out Torch Ginger today!

Take the Shot

 In Danica Flynn's Take the Shot, the first installment in the Philadelphia Bulldogs sports romance series, this debut take you on a journey on and off the ice. It started out with Dinah Lace, who works in accounting at day and writes YA books at night. At age 30, she's a young widow who lost her husband in a car crash and later a miscarriage right after it. Her big Italian family is protective of her. But she's been best friends with Noah Kennedy, her twenty-two-year-old Canadian hockey player, and her next door neighbor.  Noah is a rising hockey star for the Philly Bulldogs and always had cared for Dinah--he was there when she almost died from her miscarriage. He always had feelings for Dinah and didn't care about the age gap, when he only wants to be there for her. But when they express their feelings for each other, their chemistry sizzles off the rink and heat things up between them. Noah had always loved her, but he didn't know how Dinah felt about him. When she wanted to tell Noah how she felt during a game, he took a nasty hit from a puck that freaked her out, making her worried that she might lose something she lost again. In the end, they both take the shot to follow their hearts and find a happy ending they deserve together.

 

 This was a fantastic debut for this sports romance series. I love the hockey romance theme with the friends-to-lovers trope. It fits perfectly well into this line-up of a fantastic series. I did care for Dinah who wants to make a go with it in writing and how she felt for Noah in the end. She'd been dealt with a lot of hard knocks in her life and deserves a big break from it. I loved how she cared for him when Noah had gotten injured on the rink and found a writing buddy with Fiona. I also loved how Noah had been there for her when she needed him the most and how supportive he is of her writing career. We all need people in our life like that. We instantly can see how much he cares for her in more ways than one. The picturesque location of Philly was perfect for the scenic settings, both on and off the ice. The dual themes are to follow your heart and don't let any obstacles stand in the way of finding happiness in your life.
