This series is getting better with each book and I loved Cyclone. Eagle is even better and the connection between Finn and Charlie is off the charts.

Finn Bollinger is a partner of the Linear Tactical Unit and has lived in Oak Creek all his life. Ex-Army special forces, his life is content and his job keeps him busy. His son Ethan has dyslexia and other learning disabilities and he needs a tutor to help him get up to his grade level in reading. The woman that Finn and Ethan are supposed to meet who will be tutoring him has a history with Finn.

Charlotte Devereux is a woman in need of a break in her life so that she can help her parents and survive herself. She’s a strong, stubborn woman who keeps her life to herself and will do anything to protect the ones she loves. She will put her own life in danger to protect those she loves.

Finn and Charlotte (Charlie) go way back and their history is not something that Finn likes to dwell on. When she walks in to meet a young boy and his family about tutoring she does not expect to run into Finn, nor does she expect to be shot down so quickly about being hired to tutor.

This was a great story to read and I loved that Charlie was such a strong woman who could stand on her own, but that she realized that she didn’t always have to. The characters in this story, series are so strong and loyal. The women are badass and not afraid to stand up for themselves when needed, but know when to let their men help them out and take care of them. I give this story a 5 star review and look forward to Shamrock, and Aiden’s story. Janie Crouch’s stories draw me in and make me lose track of time when I am reading.

Wow! Dark Legacy, I guess. This story is dark and yet it is also a story of two people who in different circumstances could have had a normal relationship and could have the trust and honest feelings for each other and given them a real chance at an honest relationship.

Sabastian Scafoni, the head of the family and the oldest living son, has to continue the legacy of taking a Willow daughter and breaking her. He knows he has to do this and he will fulfill his family legacy and choose his Willow girl.

Helena Willow one of the Willow quadruplets, is the dark sister of the four. She does not have blonde hair, and she feels as though she is not a beautiful as her sisters. She is strong willed and refuses to go willingly or quietly. Her mouth and her attitude can be her downfall though. Her three sisters are blonde, beautiful, and submissive. Helena has dark hair, she’s beautiful as well, her hair and eye color are unique and this makes her stand out next to her sisters, she is also strong willed and rebellious.

I really liked this book. It’s just dark enough that it pulled me in, but it has the light parts where the relationship between Sebastian and Helena had me hoping and routing for them to end the legacy. The family rivalry, secrets and greed is disturbing and yet it keeps the pages turning to find out what will happen next and if there could be a HEA ending of the story. I look forward to Torn Book 2 of the series and can’t wait to get into it. I give this book a 4.5 star review and recommend it to anyone who likes a story of family secrets and women with determination. A very sexy cover too!

An interesting read for sure! Religion, suspense, Death Metal, and murder all in one book.

Dr. Helen Hope is a professor of eschatology, and a Calvinist nun. Her knowledge in eschatology draws her into a murder investigation when a man is found on a cross with carvings in his body. She’ll discover Death Metal and a new way of thinking about religion and life.

Detective Darren Swift has just been promoted to detective and this is his first big case. He is the detective investigating the murder and he will question his abilities to solve the case as well as the religious meanings behind the murders. He had a rough time in his last position and he isn’t sure yet of how it’s going to be in this new position.

I really enjoyed this book and was drawn into the story quickly. I found the story to be suspenseful, disturbing and interesting. The twists and turns of this story kept me turning the pages. I give this book a 4.5 star review and highly recommend it to anyone likes suspense and thrillers. I kind of hope there is another story with these characters. I’d like to know what happens with Helen, Mikko, and Darren.

He said that they’d let me go on purpose. That they could easily find me if they wanted to. He said that they didn’t want me. That I was too much trouble. He said if I went to the cops, he’d know. If I told Sonya, he’d know. If I talked to friends or teachers, he’d know. He told me to pretend it didn’t happen. He told me to consider it a compliment, that I was too strong. His last words to me were, ‘Just forget’.

A girl is taken as a teen ager and escapes. Only to live her next sixteen years in fear and constantly remembering the ordeal she went through. Faith Marsden is a young girl who has not had a great start in life, but can she change her future? Can she overcome the pain and the fear of what happened when she was sixteen years old?

Zoe Haywood is a young woman who has had to make her own way in life. Not because she didn’t have a home and a mother, but because she always knew that she was not wanted. She is a strong minded woman with morals and a stubbornness that could get her into trouble if she is not careful.

Faith and Zoe were friends in high school and reunite in this story to put an end to young girls being taken, never to be seen or heard from again.

This story had a quite a few twists that kept me wondering who these women would find at the end of the string of missing women. I was at all prepared for the conclusion. I really enjoyed reading this book and was drawn into it completely. I wanted Faith to have peace and be able to go on with her life and have a good life. This book had be questioning everyone that Faith and Zoe came across when trying to get help. I give this story a 4.5 star review and highly recommend it to anyone who likes suspense and a book with many twists in it.

This story has some twists and suspense and the ending leaves you hoping that the next book will be along soon so that you can find out what's going to happen. I give this story a 3.5 star review and look forward to the other book(s) in the series to be out.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Garrett Wright’s life after the bombing that took his friends and team members in the army is tough and his way of dealing with his anger and survivors guilt will lead him to a woman who will bring him out of the darkness.

Stefanie Banks, a woman who’s had a rough start to life has decided to live her life and put things from her past behind her. She doesn’t let anyone in though. Her armor is tight and in place, but the man that is being beaten up and just taking it is a man that she is drawn to. They will both find that they can’t put the other out of their minds.

The subject matter of Garrett’s life after the army is a tough subject matter, and not everyone who has had to battle it have survived, but Garrett was one of the lucky ones and his family and friends are thankful for that. Stefanie will help Garrett come back from the darkness.

I really liked this story and thought it was written very well. It has the good and the bad in life. Garrett is a strong man and has so much good in him, it’s great to see the side of him that his Nicola remembers come back out after meeting Stefanie. I look forward to reading Danny’s story next and love the Wright boys. I give this story a 4.5 star review.

DC Ian Drake is man who when working on a case will look at all angles to figure out who the murderer is. He has some odd habits, but they help him work things out in his head and keep things straight for him.

Drake’s team is called in when a well known barrister, Nicholas Wixley, is killed and the crime scene resembles a crime scene of a case that the he tried years prior. There are a lot of details to this case and Drake and his team will work hard to make sure that they have the correct person behind bars for the crime. The people involved in this case are all well known public figures and Drake and his team must tread carefully when questioning the suspects.

I liked this book and Drake’s team, they may seem like a misfit bunch, but they work well together and they work hard to find the killer. There is more than one murder and all of the victims are connected. If you are a fan of police procedural and suspense, I would highly recommend this book. The characters are likable and well written. I give this book a 4 star review. This was the first book in the DC Drake series, but it worked well as a stand alone story.
