Broken Circle, A Gray Ghost Novel book 1 by Amy McKinley
5-star novel
Liv’s world is turned upside down when she discovers that her dream has been a lie. Her husband is involved with a terrible drug cartel and its family. She knew there was a reason for not ever meeting them. With her life possibly at stake she makes a run for it after she becomes stuck in Colombia with her husband. She has to get away from all the death and blood. In her escape she is aided by several people but those who are caught are killed. Can she get out of the country and stay hidden?

This was an exciting and gripping story that I could not put down. Readers will love Liv and will be pulled into her story. My heart ached for the loss she experienced in this novel. I loved that she stayed strong though.

Moments That Define Us by Amy McKinley A Gray Ghost Prequel

This 5-star novel is a prequel to the Gray Ghost series. It provides excellent background to several characters seen later in the novels. I felt that the character development in this novel was excellent and they all had a very emotional upbringing which could be a tear jerker for many. I know there was one main incident that had me almost in tears. I really enjoyed this novel though and look forward to reading more about these characters later.

Moments That Define Us (Gray Ghost #0.5)Moments That Define Us by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Moments that Define Us by Amy McKinley is the first story, a prequel if you will, to her Gray Ghost Series and what a great little backstory for her readers. Following the stories of Jack and Jenni as well as the five other men that are featured in their own books. While this is a prequel it is very fast paced and gives a great look at all the characters and where they all started out. Getting to see where all these characters started out as, getting to see them before each of them grow into their own full bodied character was great to see. McKinley is fantastic author, giving her stories a full bodied series to grow with and characters that her readers can get attached to. Having read most of the series prior to this I enjoyed getting to see all of the characters in such a well written and amazing series. I highly recommend reading this series in order, but each book can be read as a stand-alone. I can’t wait to see what McKinley brings to her readers in the future!

Moments That Define Us
A Gray Ghost Prequel
Book 0
By Amy McKinley
☆☆☆☆☆
This is just the beginning. A little suspenseful and protecting your family, blood or not.

Jack is the oldest of this gang. Can’t really call them a gang though. As they are more homeless teens then a gang. A place to hang out and be safe. While Jack has graduated from high school, he feels responsible for the other students. His goal is to keep them safe from the drugs, abusive family members and the local gang. Amongst the guys is Jack’s girlfriend Jenni. Problem is she is the sister of the rival gangs leader Rex.

Amy McKinley is just getting started with this short prequel. She has set the stage and her story is a go. What a beginning it is too. This book caught my attention on page one. I hated that it ended so soon. The story is a nail biter, and I was on the edge throughout the book. I am looking forward to reading more from Amy McKinley. Let’s get this story started! As I need so much more of Jack and his family.

Moments That Define Us (Gray Ghost #0.5)Moments That Define Us by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This novella sets the stage for the adult Gray Ghost series.

This was a lot of book for just under seventy pages! I have personally read the rest of the Gray Ghost Novels from Amy McKinley and I am still pondering if this is one of those prequel novellas that must be read before you read the books that come first or not? I for one feel like this opened my eyes to a lot of things that may have just not quite had clicked for me before after reading the previous two. I do wonder if that was intentional though of the author all along. Especially after reading this latest book. Regardless, I would highly recommend that at some point all the books in the series.

This one really does exactly what it says it will. It shows us how these teenage boys came into the adults they are today. These boys have suffered in their own individual ways. It has led them to live a paramilitary lifestyle and form a group to protect the abused and weak. In a way they could be described as a modern day group of ‘Robin Hoods’. These are the reasons why they are the way they are. I loved this one, and I can’t wait to find out what will come next in book three, Beneath the Surface!

“All right, Watters. Let’s make a deal.”

Broken Circle (Gray Ghost #1)Broken Circle by Amy McKinley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Broken Circle, by Amy McKinley, is the first book of the Gray Ghost series. This romantic suspense is a great lead in to the series and what to expect from this author with these books. In Broken Circle, Olivia and Alex are the main/feature characters of this novel. The suspense and intrigue are well drawn on throughout the story and I felt tied to the characters as the story unfolded, from Olivia’s emotional state, questions as the come, and curiosity of what lays ahead for both Olivia and Alex. Amy McKinley is a talented author and it shines in the Gray Ghost series, from the character development, the story lines and the anticipation that is built within the stories – it all perfectly comes together in this book/series.

Eye of the Storm (Gray Ghost #2)Eye of the Storm by Amy McKinley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Eye of the Storm, by Amy McKinley, is the second book of the Gray Ghost series. This novel was a pager turner; the author has found the right mix of ingredients to deliver in this novel and do it well. Delving into organized crime and how that impacts actions of the characters within the story were laid out and seamlessly fell into the story. Chris and Mari were elementally aligned here, how they navigate around each other, around others, who they can or cannot trust, along with determining what they do and do not value. This story involved but emotional and physical journeys of survival. Both lead characters were strong. The Gray Ghost series is an unforgettable read!!

Amy McKinley’s Moments That Define Us is a Gray Ghost series prequel. The author sets the stage in this short novella introducing the characters and the events that started what’s potentially to come in subsequent books within the series. I found this story of Jack and his family enlightening, well written and insightful. Amy McKinley shares characters that are flawed, somewhat broken in their own unique ways as they fight to put their mark on the world and find their place. Even with the limited pages of this story, the author packed a lot in and it was done without feeling rushed or over done.

Moments that Define Us by Amy McKinley takes us back to why and where it all began and what shaped these boys into men. I enjoy reading Amy’s books they are so descriptive and full of danger and action. We have a group of boys trying to find family and stay alive without getting caught up in anything illegal. With enemies on the warpath it’s only a matter of time before things turn against them. It is a short read but one that packs a punch giving us an insight to the life they endured before and defined them.

Moments That Define Us (A Gray Ghost Prequel) by Amy McKinley. I’ve read all the Gray Ghost books and I love them. This one was no different. I loved reading about how they came together in the beginning. This is the story of Jack & Jenni, Jack is living in an abandoned building with his “crew”. Jack is trying to protect his neighborhood from Jenni’s brother Rex, the local drug dealer, and keep his friends from falling into Rex’s evil ways. Rex already hates Jack because he is dating his sister. When weapons are brought into the fight it could be the end of them all. These kids have all had a rough upbringing and it was really cool to see where they came from. I love this series and hope there are more.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read this series from start to finish and I absolutely loved going back to how it all started. This is a prelude to the amazing Gray Ghost series. I think you can read this novella before or after you read the rest of the series. I absolutely love suspense in my romance and this author keeps on blowing my mind with her writing style. You can’t help not to fall in love with all of the characters. I was hooked from the first page and could not stop. It only took me a couple of hours to devour this perfect story.

Jack has a lot to deal with in his life. He lives with five other guys that don’t have family and he tries to keep their neighborhood safe. Jack is also in love with a girl that can put him into danger. He loves this girl so much but her brother hates him. When Jack and her brother Rex declare a turf war things get very ugly. Jack will do anything for the love of his life but will he pay with his own? Will Jack protect his family or will he end up having to choose?

I absolutely loved this book. The storyline has it all romance, suspense, and a lot of emotion. You will fall in love with all these characters. These guys will touch your hearts from all the hardships they have to go through at a young age. In the end they are family. This talented author will keep you at the edge of your seats and leave you shocked. I’m so happy I read this book. It will give you a better understanding of how this series started. I can’t wait to see what this author will have for us next.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Stars

Moments That Define Us is the prelude (Book #0.5) to Gray Ghost Series by Amy McKinley. I have read all of Ms. McKinley’s books and have loved every single one. She is a fantastic writer who is able to weave a captivating story that hook me every time. I have loved the Gray Ghost series and so I was quite intrigued by what this prelude would contain. To say I am blown away would be an understatement! I already loved the characters- but after reading this and seeing where they came from and some of what they have been through, makes me admire and love them even more!
The story is quite intense and emotional. There are scenes that made my heart ache- but the main thing I got from this book was a whole lot more respect and admiration for the team, because having been through what they had, it would have been easy for them to give up, or to take the easy road- but they didn’t, and that takes massive strength of character to rise above and fight for what you believe in. The sense of duty, honour, loyalty, camaraderie, and tight-knit team work was apparent right from their early years- and has only gotten stronger as they got older. I love how this book really sets the stage for the rest of the series and gives such an amazing insight into the characters beginnings.
This may be a small story (novella), but still manages to pack a punch. Ms. McKinley fits a lot into a small space, making the whole thing seem like a much bigger book- in a great way!
I am so looking forward to the next Gray Ghost book!

Thank you, Ms. McKinley!

Eye of the Storm is the second book on the Gray Ghost series by Amy McKinley. The action started in the first sentence and didn’t let up until the very end, I enjoyed every minute of it.

Chris is amazing and I’m not just saying that because he shares a name with my husband. Even injured he did what he needed to do to take care of Mari and the situation they found themselves in.

Mari is the epitome of strength and bravery. She seriously had a set and I loved her for it.

When I started this series I wasn’t sure how much I would like it. You read one military special ops books you’ve read them all right? Not in this series. Can’t quite put my finger on what make it different in my mind. I just know I will be following this series until the end.

Moments that Define Us by Amy McKinley is a Gray Ghost prequel, and WOW after already reading the first two books I wish I had read this beforehand. It really set things in my mind about what I had already read with the full books. This is a short read, but I will state that this book REALLY packs a punch and so many emotions in this story. This really shows that life isn’t always a bowl of cherries. This is the story of Jack and Jenni.
Five homeless guys living in abandoned building have become family and decide to protect the community in which they call home. When Jack isn’t protecting his home and community he spends his time with Jenni, who happens to be the sister of a local drug dealer. Now Jenni is caught in the middle, between her love of Jack and her love of her brother.
This book is POWERFUL and action packed, I recommend it to those that have already read the first two books in this series or to anyone wanting to dive into an amazing series. Amy McKinley really set the stage for a great read and a great series. I cannot wait to read MORE!

Broken Circle is book one in the Gray Ghost Novels written by Amy McKinley. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this story, I wasn’t sure how I would feel about it. Broken Circle is a sad story but it has some happy moments in it as well. Liv has had her whole world turned upside down on after she starts to questions her husband Alex’s behavior. Insert a lot of crazy, sad, exciting events can Liv survive now that her life is at stake? Will Alex’s love prove fake or real when it comes down to a life or death situation or will Liam and his team be the ones to save her.  I had a lot of questions as I was reading this story but I couldn’t put it down because I had to know how it ended. I’m looking forward to reading the next story in the series Eye of the Storm. Review by @krystalgaston

Moments That Define Us by Amy McKinley is a heart-breaking prelude to her Gray Ghost series. I wish I had read it before I read the first and second books in the series … She was right, it totally set the stage for the rest of the series and explains so much that I did not fully grasp when reading the ‘full’ books.
It is a short story but it is crazily intense – the writer has to pack a punch, she is setting this group of teenage boys on to the road to become paramilitary protecting the abused and the week and they start with it already when they are still young and suffering themselves … it would be so easy to closer their eyes and just think of themselves and their close band of future modern day Robin Hoods but there is something in their DNA or maybe it is simply that thanks to having each other they are tapping into the deep well of humanity that is in each and every one of us but they are different… their stories are not for the feint hearted and I have to admit, I cried and cried and when I closed the book, I wished for each of them to find their happiness when the writer gives them their own story …
The focal point of the beginning is the story of Jack and Jenni and please, be forewarned, it will break your heart as their story is real and unfortunately the real life is painful …
I am impatiently waiting for the stories of the rest of the guys!

Broken Circle is the first book on the Gray Ghost series by Amy McKinley. What a way to start a series. Even after reading the synopsis I was surprised by some of the events that took place.

Olivia is a rock star. Married to an officer with NYPD I’m sure is stressful enough, but to add the added stress of the in laws she just amazed me.

This book took a totally different direction from what I was expecting but it was perfect. And the last three chapters…..

Cannot wait to read the next book!

This is absolutely a must read and I cannot wait to start the next book, I have a feeling these books are going to be one that gives me a good book hangover when I am done with their story.

This is the prequel to the Gray Ghost series. I actually read the first two books in the series before this novella. I am loving this series. This story tells about the Gray Ghost characters when they were kids and what lead them to the choices they are making as adults.

This story is hard to read in that the kids are homeless and the ones that do have a home are being abused. The story flows and you can almost tell that something bad is going to happen, but you just aren’t sure until it does happen. Little do they realize that the bad will lead to the one opportunity they need to be great.

I recommend this story before you start the Gray Ghost series or at any time during it. Looking forward to reading more about these characters.

I’ve already read the first 2 books in this series and can’t even describe how much I loved them. I normally don’t like to go back and read prequels that come after stories I’ve already read but in this case this came at the perfect time. I sincerely have wondered how it all began and now I know, and it gave me all I needed and wanted to hope that this series goes on and on for quite some time. This was awesome and heartbreaking and it makes me seriously wonder if it didn’t end with an unfinished story that might still come in the future with a certain character seeking revenge. I guess we will see, and I WILL see because I will be one of the first in line to one click whenever another of this series is released. I also want to go seek out what else this author might have available because she has quickly become an absolute favorite of mine.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Broken Circle by Amy McKinley is the first book in her Gray Ghost series! It is also the first book I have read by this writer so I was very curious about her story telling ways when I picked it up! I have to say that I had nothing to be concerned about! I absolutely loved it! I loved it so much that I also picked up the ‘prelude’ to the series that I had somehow missed AND also the second book of the series! (Reviews to come!)
I loved Amy’s writing style – it was flowing and smooth like molasses AND it kept me at the edge of my seat until I came to the last page! There are twists and turns in this story and I tell you, every single character has their purpose and you cannot take anyone away! It is a story of betrayal and ‘illusion’ – you think that something is going on but you do not actually see what truly is going on under the surface …
I loved Olivia, I loved how she grew throughout the story and found her strength (and stubbornness)! And when her blinders come off … be prepared for fireworks!

Eye of the Storm is the second book in Amy McKinley’s Gray Ghost series! I dived straight into it after finishing the first book as I had fallen in love with Amy’s storytelling ways! Even though the stories can be read as standalone, do yourself a favour and read the first book as well as you will enjoy Eye of the Storm even more once you have done it.
Amy continues with her smooth storytelling and emotional rollercoaster, there are twists and turns that you do not see coming and just imagine, it is all happening in the wilderness of Colombian jungle! The writer is so meticulous with how she describes the jungle, how her characters come across and boy, the secrets … they are like a cherry on top of the cream! I loved how Amy gave us two strong and independent (and stubborn) characters (Mari and Chris) that make the story unforgettable! How can you give the story a cold shoulder when there is action, emotion and …. Secrets … but I already said that! So, pick up a copy and run away to the jungle with Marie and Chris and maybe, just maybe, you will return in one piece!

The Eye of the Storm by Amy McKinley is the second book in the Gary Ghost Novel series, and let me tell you, this book was amazing! Reading the Blurb, I knew this book would be romance, and thrilling all in one and that drew me in before I even started reading. Then once I read, I was able to get lost a little more into the world of Chris and Mari. Chris and Mari both stumble on each other in the Jungle. Mari, lost but strong needs help and Chris lost and having no memory yet knows his way around to keep them safe. Being that they both NEED to trust each other, they embark in an adventure. Mari and Chris grow closer despite the enemies on their trail, I found myself nervous. When they grew closer, my heart was happy. I love books that can grab my emotions and this one sure did! I give this books 5 stars and know many will enjoy it like I did!

I have been so looking forward to this book. I absolutely loved the first one and knew this would be be just as good and I was right…

I loved how this story started out and I usually get upset when it takes a few pages to figure out what is going on but in this one it was all part of the build up that needed to happen to appreciate it all. I loved every word in this book, there was no filler added anywhere, every single page was a needed addition and I so appreciate that in my books.

I love all of the characters in this story, I do hope I get a little more about Hannah in either the next book or books to follow, theres alot of questions I have about her and I can’t wait to find all of those answers.

It was nice revisiting Liv just a bit and getting some updates about her and I’m truly hoping that this series will continue for many books to come. I sincerely love the writing style of this author and will be one clicking any and everything she has available from this point forward.

You absolutely could read this as a standalone but I don’t recommend it as the first in this series gives you the background you need about this team and not to mention its just awesome!!

Highly recommend!! Loved It!!

Eye of the Storm (Gray Ghost #2)Eye of the Storm by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I adored the first book in The Gray Ghost series, Broken Circle, so I had high hopes for this next novel, Eye of the Storm. Amy McKinley did not disappoint. I was hooked from the very first chapter to the last word of the last page. I sincerely wish that I could give this a few bonus stars but since I can’t the max of five will have to do. I don’t believe that it is necessary to read the first book, but why not?

In Eye of the Storm we have the story of Mari Dias. Mari is one heck of a strong woman. She has had to learn how to be for a long time. Her life was anything but easy. Growing up in the way that she did and the environment has taught her a lot. But her time in the Columbian Jungle will not be as easy as she thought it would be. In fact this will be the catalyst of big changes for Mari.

Chris Shaw also finds himself in the Columbian Jungle under duress. First major problem is that he is hanging, literally in a tree, wrapped in his shredded parachute. Secondly, he has no idea who he is. Not even so much as his name. He does eventually notice in his moments of awareness that there is a beautiful woman, Mari that is trying to help him the best that she can. Will Chris be able to trust that she is safe? Especially since he can sense that something about her isn’t as it seems. Will these two find a romance and a future together during their time in the jungle? Or will this be the end of everything for the both of them?
