Critical Threat

Image
MY REVIEW Each book in the Extreme Measures series just gets better and better.  Critical Threat  is the latest book, and my favorite of the three. I love the rawness of some scenes, wonderful characters, and lovely elements of faith.   I’m glad I’ve been able to read these first three books in the series because they share characters I’ve grown attached to. But, because Lynette Eason is so talented, they are also awesome standalones!   Grace and Sam are so easy to connect with and I loved their missions and compassionate hearts. This book contains an element I don’t think I’ve experienced in a suspense book before. One of the characters is related to a serial killer. Yikes. I can’t imagine. (Well, now I can. Ha.) There are twists, turns, romance, and plenty of suspense, but my favorite part is the spiritual thread that shapes what we do and who we become.   First Line:  “A third victim has been found and a serial killer is once again thought to be terrorizing the Northeast—just east o

Her Heart's Desire

Image
  MY REVIEW I love it when I finish a book and then realize it’s the first in a new series!  Her Heart’s Desire  is book one in Shelley Shepard Gray’s  A Season in Pinecraft  series. It is so easy to sink into this story that I completed it in one sitting.    We all probably remember a time where we went on vacation, visited an obscure place (or something similar), and didn’t want to leave because of the wonderful people we met. That’s the case with the characters in this story as well as my connection to then while ‘visiting’ them in Pinecraft.   I enjoyed this unique Amish story and its fresh atmosphere. Mary, Betsy, and Lily (and others) are easy to connect with, and I empathized and rooted for them in varying ways. With elements of love, faith, friendship, and overcoming life’s obstacles, this is an entertaining, uplifting, and inspiring read.   First Line:  There were only two beds in the motel room.  Series:  A Season in Pinecraft book 1 Genre:   Amish Romance, Christian Contempo
