My Review:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 out of 5

Will his family ever see him as more than the kid that lost his scholarship?

Cutter is hiding a lot of emotions and he is trying to find his way through this life.

Cutter Thompson has a past that he can’t seem to outrun but is it only from himself or his loved ones too. Do they still see him as a screw up? When the LSERT is looking for volunteers to go help with the hurricane that is threatening the southern states, Cutter decides to go. He has nothing stopping him from leaving so he may as well go help out where he can. The only thing is that Cutter is not prepared for this trip at all. Not what he will see or how his life will change after this help and rescue mission.

Rowan Baker is just surviving, she’s not living her life. After a devastating tragedy four years ago, she seems to be stuck in her life. When she meets Cutter during the hurricane, her life seems to be brighter. It’s too bad that he lives in Laurel Hill and she lives in Paradise Lost. Their chemistry has them both feeling like life is good and that they can overcome their pasts and find a way to move on.

I really enjoyed this story. It was tragic, scary, and a beautiful story of two people finding a way to move on from their pasts and find their HEA. The characters in Ms. Briscoe’s LSERT series are always great to read and Cutter’s story did not disappoint. They are loyal to each other, kind, and are always willing to do what is needed to make sure that their families are safe and taken care of. These characters are not all family by blood, but they are also family by choice, and it makes for a great tight knit community in Laurel Hills. They keep their community safe and they are always willing to help outside of their own community as well. The devastation and danger that Cutter see’s while in Paradise Lost helps him find his true self and the strength that is hidden deep within himself, as does Rowan. She feels that she is broken and damaged, but she is actually a strong woman who has been dealt a huge blow, but Cutter will show her the path to happiness. He’s so gentle and patient with her, but he is also a force to be reckoned with when needed. I loved this story and give it a 5-star review. I look forward to more of the LSERT family.

Betrayed. Sold. Tortured. Now she’s fighting to rebuild her life.

Diamond Hatcher was always the quiet girl—the shy one. Her ordeal at the hand of human traffickers left her more reserved, expressing through her paintings what she cannot put into words. She took the biggest risk of her life when she let Detective Elijah Newton know she was interested in him, but he didn’t return her feelings.

Elijah’s life was turned upside down in a way he never could have expected, and although he has feelings for Diamond, there is no way he’s going to drag her into the mess his life has become. Until fate forces his hand. When someone starts using Diamond’s paintings as inspiration to commit murder, there isn’t anything he won’t do to keep her safe, including tell her his biggest secret.

My Review:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 out of 5

Sold at the age of 18 by her own parents, Diamond struggles to keep herself alive and not give in to the torture and pain that her body is put through. She had dreams of going to college, having a career that she enjoyed, incorporate her love for painting, and have a family, now it looks like all of her dreams have been stolen from her and she may never see her four sisters ever again. Being betrayed by her own parents has broken her heart but being the oldest and not knowing where her younger sisters are or if they are still alive, is the worst torture for her, even with the torture that her body is being put through.

He is attracted to Diamond, his partners older sister, but he has enough on his plate right now and with what Diamond has endured already in her life, he doesn’t want to put her in a situation that could destroy the work she has done to move on with her life. Even after she made it clear to him that she is interested, Elijah is afraid to put her in the crossfire of Lisa’s sights. Lisa is his ex that he’s in a custody battle with. He wants Diamond in his life, but he won’t let Lisa drag her into their battle.

This story is tragic, suspenseful, and shows the strength that someone has when they have support and the love of people who care for her. Diamond is not the only one to have to battle for a new normal, but she feels that she may be the last to find her new normal or ability to move on with her life. When danger comes along that points to more trouble for Diamond, Elijah will step up and do whatever he can to protect her and keep her safe. It may take some time to make sure she is safe, but when he thinks he’s lost her for good, the truth of his feelings will become clear and he will fight harder to protect her and keep her in his life. I really enjoyed the story, it’s dark, depraved, and tragic, but the characters are great, strong, and willing to fight for their lives as well as those they love and care about. I give this story a 5-star review and look forward to more in the series.
