Beachcomber Gone by Stephanie Queen
4 out of 5stars
Beachcomber Gone is the first book that I have read by Stephanie Queen and it was great even though I was lost because stupid me just jumps into reading a great story in the middle. The characters are great I love the way they play off of each other you could tell they belong together.
PI partners Dane & Shana are ready to tie the knot after years of trying to resist their love affair. But their visit to Shana’s hometown in Australia goes terribly wrong when old enemies track her down. Just when Dane thought they would marry, Shana’s gone…
Dane & Shana travel to Australia so that Dane can meet her family, but they land in a minefield of problems. Shana’s mother is being used as bait by an old enemy Shana helped convict in an old police pension fraud case.
Now the case has been re-opened amid speculation that there was an insider involved. Someone is trying to set Shana up to take the fall. Dane and Shana need to find the dangerous traitor inside her old police department and bring them down to keep Shana out of jail–and to keep her alive.
This is a great story I really enjoyed it now I have to go back to the beginning and read this great story..

Beachcomber Gone (Beachcomber Investigations Book 9: a Romantic Detective Series) by Stephanie Queen – Review by Sheri Schrader

Beachcomber GoneBeachcomber Gone by Stephanie Queen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Beachcomber Gone: Beachcomber Investigations Book 9: a Romantic Detective Series by Stephanie Queen is a fun, thriller. Dane and Shana travel to meet Shana’s family in Australia. Things go out of control and the situation and people are not always what they seem. I recommend this if you like romance, great dialogue, and some thriller thrown in. I have not read the whole series and this can be read as a standalone. I think that something is lost because reading alone loses the buildup from the other books. I like the two main characters and their relationship. The story is a fast read and I was sorry when it ended. I am planning on reading more from the series since I have enjoyed the books I have read.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Beachcomber Gone is the NINTH book in Stephanie Queen’s Beachcomber Investigations series! Nine books of goodness! You can reach each and every one of them as a standalone as they all have a ‘case’ that gets solved! I have read couple of other books in the series and enjoyed them tremendously and have the rest already downloaded and I have to admit that I also ventured out to Stephanie’s other series (Scotland Yard Exchange)…
So, Beachcomber Gone is another one of Dane and Shana stories and this time it hits close to home as it affects them personally! They get forewarned of the danger when they are on the flight to Australia (to visit Shana’s family) but unfortunately you cannot just parachute off the commercial flight and of course you cannot leave your family in danger (it is Shana’s mother who is being threatened…).
I love the chemistry between Shana and Dane, it is actually something beyond chemistry … it is sort of an addiction … Shana is Dane’s Achilles’ heel … He is one complex man and it makes the reading even more enjoyable! No simple bam-wham-mam … no no … it is a real dangerous story with not the usual backup and they don’t know who to trust and who not and … well, let’s just say that it was another brilliant instalment of the series and I wonder if I will last ‘til the day those two get married or will I have a heart attack first!

Beachcomber Gone (Beachcomber Investigations Series #9) by Stephanie Queen – Review by Angela Shirley

Beachcomber GoneBeachcomber Gone by Stephanie Queen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Beachcomber Gone by Stephanie Queen is the ninth instalment in the Beachcomber series and this series just keeps getting better. All the usual characters are here to create a wonderful world of intrigue, twists and turns with a dash of romance to finish it off.

Shana and Dane having been skirting back and forth with their emotions in the previous books and finally in this book they decide to take it to the next level but just when they thought the world had forgot about them, a trip to Australia opens old wounds and the two of them are back fight against old enemies.

This book is full of excitement, thrilling cliffhangers and twists and turn which you have come to appreciate from the writing of Stephanie Queen. I have always had a soft spot for Shana as a bad ass investigator who drives to seek the truth and the pair up with the quite but deadly Dane just adds the emotions in the book and books. Although this I feel can be read as a stand alone book I would not recommend it, you need to understand the dynamic between the two characters and how the other eight books have got us to this point.

As always the story flows through with you on the edge of your seat straight from the first chapter, the characters are well developed and the secondary characters just add to the whole feel of the book. As always this book was a pleasure to read and I really hope there is another book in this wonderful series and it never ends and that Dane and Shana will be in their eighties still fighting crime.

Beachcomber Gone by Stephanie Queen is the ninth book in the Beachcomber Investigations series. If you like a fast-paced mystery novel series that likes to throws you thru loops then you need to read this series.
In this book, Dane and Shana are getting closer to the wedding but Dane needs to meet Shana ’s family first, but a mystery adventure awaits them in Australia. Dane and Shana never let a case slow down the love they have for each other. I was on the edge of my seat with the wonderful writing; I’m looking forward to Dane and Shana’s next adventure.

Beachcomber Gone is the ninth book in the Beachcomber Investigations series by
Stephanie Queen. This is a romantic detective series with mystery, suspense, some drama, action, intrigue, danger, set-ups, and more… This story could be read as a standalone, but I would recommend reading some, if not all the other books, just to get a better understanding of these wonderful characters, their backstories and everything they’ve been through to get them to this point.
Another brilliant instalment from Ms. Queen. There really is so much to love about this series and characters, and I have become quite emotionally invested in Shana and Dane’s lives- all the while following them on their investigations/adventures and trying to unravel everything and piece it all together as it all plays out.
I never tire of Ms. Queen’s stories, and she manages to pull me in each and every time with her addictive plots and descriptive style. Her attention to detail makes the stories come to life in a very realistic and believable way. The characters are complex, a little quirky and entirely endearing. Ms. Queen always delivers, and this book is no exception!
As Dane and Shana look to take their relationship to the next level, they travel to Australia so Dane can meet Shana’s family. But with these two, danger is never very far away. So, before the first chapter has even ended, Dane and Shana find themselves thrown headfirst into a case that will test them on every level. With set-up, old cases and enemies coming back to haunt her- the action, tension, conflict and danger had me on the edge of my seat. Can they find a way out of this predicament, or will this be the case that breaks them?
Another brilliant Beachcomber novel. I love catching up with these two characters and their stories just seems to get better and better as the series progresses!

Thank you, Ms. Queen!

This is the best yet in this series. In this book Dane and Shana finally get their wedding day or so Dane thought. When Shana’s past enemies come calling, will she take the fall for something she didn’t do? I enjoy these two characters, they have such chemistry and work so well together. They took me on a journey of twists and turns that left me sitting on the edge of my seat, I had to know if Shana would go to jail or not! I highly recommend reading to find out if they finally get their day!

Beachcomber Gone: Beachcomber Investigations Book 9
By: Stephanie Queen
5 out of 5 stars

The story Beachcomber Gone: Beachcomber Investigations Book 9 by Stephanie Queen is a romantic suspense book that I loved reading. I have loved this series ever since I read the first story. One of the reasons is the characters of Dane and Shana. These two found an attraction to each other from their first meeting and it has only grown ever since. When reading about them you know they are meant to be together. Life is never boring for them. This story has the couple traveling to Australia so that Dane can meet Shana’s family. Those plans are interrupted when Shana’s mother is used as bait and threats made. It soon becomes apparent that not all is as it seems, and someone is out to set Shana up. Will Dane and Shana find out who is responsible before Shana is arrested or hurt? Read this story to find out. This book has action and danger around every corner as this couple tries to unravel the mystery of who a traitor is. Plans and strategies are formed in which the safety of those involved can’t be guaranteed. It had me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. It had me turning pages. I also enjoyed reading about the additional characters, how they fit into the story and their interactions with Dane and Shana. This is a book and series that I would highly recommend reading.

Beachcomber Danger (Beachcomber Investigations, #8)Beachcomber Danger by Stephanie Queen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Beachcomber Danger is the 8th book in the Beachcomber Investigations series by Stephanie Queen. In this book, Dane has to work with the Secret Service to help save the President of the United States but of course, Shana won’t let him do it alone.

This was a romantic suspense/mystery is packed with action that will keep you turning the pages. Dane and Shana still having time between the action, for some steamy sexy romance because we know they can’t keep their hands to themselves.

Can’t wait to see what Dane and Shana next case will be; will we be hearing wedding bells anytime soon?

Beachcomber Danger is the eighth book in the Beachcomber Investigations series by
Stephanie Queen. It is a romantic detective series with mystery, suspense, some drama, action, intrigue, and of course, romance. This story could be read as a standalone, but I recommend reading all the other books to get a better understanding of these wonderful characters, their backstories and everything they’ve been through to get them to this point. Not to mention that the other books are also really great and will enhance your overall enjoyment of this story.
Another first-rate book from Ms. Queen. There really is so much to love about this particular series, and I can’t help liking and becoming invested in Shana and Dane’s lives while following them on their investigations/adventures and trying to unravel it all as everything plays out. I never tire of Ms. Queen’s stories, and she manages to pull me in each and every time with her addictive plots and descriptive style. Her attention to detail makes the stories come to life in a very realistic and believable way. The characters are complex, a little quirky and entirely endearing. Ms. Queen always delivers, and this book is no exception!
This time the newly engaged couple are about to face danger yet again, protecting the President from an assassination plot. The stakes are higher than ever before, with so much more to lose. Will there be a price to pay?
A fantastic addition to the series, which just seems to get better and better with each new book!

Thank you, Ms. Queen!
