Winter Austin perpetually answers the question: “were you born in the winter?” with a flat “nope,” but believe her, there is a story behind her name.

A lifelong Mid-West gal with strong ties to the agriculture world, Winter grew up listening to the captivating stories told by relatives around a table or a campfire. As a published author, she learned her glass half-empty personality makes for a perfect suspense/thriller writer. Taking her ability to verbally spin a vivid and detailed story, Winter translated that into writing deadly romantic suspense, mysteries, and thrillers.

When she’s not slaving away at the computer, you can find Winter supporting her daughter in cattle shows, seeing her three sons off into the wide-wide world, loving on her fur babies, prodding her teacher husband, and nagging at her flock of hens to stay in the coop or the dogs will get them.

She is the author of multiple novels, with more on the way.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Knight on Edge is the 7th book in the Jorja Knight series. Full disclosure, I have not read all the books in this series and still thoroughly enjoyed Alice Bienia’s writing style. This was a great mystery that kept you on your toes with interesting characters.
While this was a full length novel, I didn’t find myself falling bored or losing interest. I will certainly double back and read more from this series in the near future.

If you love good murder mysteries full of suspense, danger, lies, secrets, adventure and so much more then this is for you.

This is yet another fantastic addition to an already great series. I find it so easy to reconnect with this character each and every time. I love that each of her adventures are so different to each other and yet they all have such similar feel to them.
This was a really exciting book. I think this one is my favourites of the series so far. It action packed right from the start and I was pulled in so easily! The story got more complex as it went on and I felt myself being taken on the journey with the characters. This author has created a great series and I am already looking forward to the next.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was my second encounter this author, and I was pleasantly surprised by their venture into a slightly different genre. The shift was absolutely refreshing and I found myself more engaged than ever. One of the standout features of the book is its pacing. The shorter chapters create a rhythmic flow that makes it easy to get lost in the story. I found myself eagerly turning the pages, eager to see what Buck, our main character, would encounter next. Buck’s journey is captivating as he stumbles upon a series of intriguing mysteries that unfold with just the right amount of suspense and intrigue.

The author’s writing style elevates the reading experience. It feels more immersive rather than just a leisurely pastime. I was drawn into the world they’ve crafted almost as if I was living the adventure alongside Buck. If you’re a fan of Westerns infused with mystery and adventure, you’ll certainly enjoy this book. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to dive into a thrilling read!

This is normally not my genre but the synopsis looked interesting. By the end of Chapter 1, I was intrigued and hooked. I found the writing easy to understand. It had a fairly smooth flow with a couple minor glitches. The characters had personalities that were quite relatable. They felt like they could be people you know. You had from cranky to helpful. There was even a twist or two. It was a really good read that I enjoyed while trying to solve the mystery of who was taking out the railway workers

The beginning of the story brings the reader into what Buck Greene was dealing with prior to him moving onto a new life. The war does explain a lot of what the other characters that were in the war went through also. The author does a great job in describing how things were in that era, i.e., traveling on horseback, the building of the railroad track, and even how far Greene and his partner, Edward, had to travel just to question the men about the murder case. Overall, the story is very well done.

Westerns are not usually my go to type book and I honestly can’t recall the last one that I read. However, I am so pleased that I gave this book a chance as it was such an interesting story. It was an exciting read from start to finish and I really found myself caught up in what was going on.
I enjoyed the way the whole book unfolded. I wanted to know the truth behind the murders and wanted to see if our MC would figure it all out. The story felt like it was in keeping with the time, realistic to the era it was set in. This is still one of the first few books that I have read from this author but it has definitely reinforced the view that I will be reading more.

4.5 Stars

 

Knight On Edge is the seventh book in the Jorja Knight Mystery series by Alice Bienia. This is a very engrossing mystery with plenty of tension, suspense, action, adventure, danger, crime + investigation, secrets, lies, deception, personal turmoil/crisis, whodunnit feel, twists, agendas, and a tangled web of mystery.
Again, we join Jorja Knight, who we met in the previous books, as she takes on a simple infidelity case which takes a deadly turn. Untangling the shocking truth will test Jorja far more than she imagined when she signed up for the case, especially when she has her own personal struggles to contend with as well. What happens makes for another gripping read.
Even though this is the seventh book in the series, you can read it as a standalone without feeling like you are missing anything. Having said that though, the other books in the series make for great reading too- and contain their own intriguing mysteries for Jorja to solve. They also provide more character information, background stories, and other interesting details which, all combined, will definitely enhance your appreciation of this book, as well as the series as a whole.
Looking forward to seeing what Jorja gets up to next!
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Alice Bienia!

Feisty, no-nonsense straight shooter Jorja Knight is independent, but even she questions things as she finds herself smack dab in the middle of a dark game with a killer who will stop at nothing to keep their secret. But it’s not just a killer that is about to upturn her life.
What can I say, I love this series: Jorja Knight Private Investigator Mystery series. Jorja Knight is kickar$e. The books in this series can be read as standalones but if you start from the beginning, you gain so much insight into our lead character Jorja Knight.
Knight On Edge is a thrilling tale pulls you into the suspenseful, mysterious, dangerous and harrowing world where Jorja is caught in a web of secrets, lies, deception and deadly motives.
I am not going to spill any thing in this review because you need to discover the joy of the story by yourself.
Read along with Jorja Knight and the paces Alice puts her through. It’s addictive for sure.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is part 7 of the Jorja Knight Mystery Series, and is no less amazing than the other 6. Jorja is a private detective in Canada. Her cases are usually run of the mill investigations into missing people, adultery or similar situations. Her latest case, however, turns into a mess that is most assuredly not what it appears from the outset. Sherrie Langcaster hires Jorja to find out if her husband is cheating, and when she discovers the truth, Jorja assumes she is done with Sherrie’s case. What neither of the women could possibly foresee is just how connected their lives would be from that point, and just how twisted everything around Sherrie and her husband was just about to get, when his mistress turns up dead, and Sherrie’s missing gun is the murder weapon. This mystery is great and will pull you in from beginning to end, but there is plenty of story line to remind you that Jorja is more than just a detective.

This is the first book in the Buck Greene, Railroad Special Agent, Mysteries series. I really enjoyed this murder mystery story and I can’t wait to read more from this series. The author does an amazing job of transporting the reader back in time and fully immersing the reader in the way of life back then. The story is so well woven that I couldn’t guess which turn would be next. It kept me guessing which is what I love.
The chapters are short which for me means I read them quickly. I had a constant feeling of reading just one more chapter and then realising I had read 3. The story is so immersive that I couldn’t stop reading once I started.

Buck Greene has just got back from fighting in the Civil war. After fighting for a better life he finds himself returning home to nothing as his parents have been killed during the war. Now he knows he needs a new start so he sets off to find his fortune along the railroads.
When he discovers the body of a railroad worker he places himself into the investigation in the hopes of getting a job as a railroad agent. However what he soon realises is that this is not the first murder and it is now a race against time to capture the murderer before they strike again and claim another life.

Will he solve the case before another life is lost? If he does solve the case will this give him the break he needs to become a proper agent?

Jorja Knight’s latest cases have pushed her limits as a private investigator. When a distraught woman hires her to confirm suspicions of her husband’s infidelity, Jorja welcomes the seemingly routine job. But from the moment she accepts the assignment, something feels off, and soon, her instincts prove right.
The mistress turns up dead, and Jorja is haunted by the thought that her investigation may have played a deadly role. Hired by the defense lawyer to help dismantle a seemingly airtight case against her client, Jorja is pulled into the murder investigation. Digging into the details of the homicide, unsettling questions about the accused’s innocence start to surface. Meanwhile, personal crises threaten to derail everything she’s built.
As Jorja unearths secrets buried in the victim’s past, she’s led down a dark, twisted path of deception and deadly motives to a more shocking truth—one that someone is willing to kill to keep hidden. With time running out and her own life in turmoil, Jorja must untangle a web of lies to uncover the real motive and expose the killer. But what if the very person she’s fighting to defend is the one who pulled the trigger?

I have never been much of a true crime reader, but Mr. Lucky was a fantastic introduction into the genre! At first I had a hard time keeping everything together and straight in my head, so much so that I almost gave up on it, but I pushed through and I am glad I did! Details and voice guided the story along and kept the reader engaged. This was an intense and gripping tale, and each character was well introduced to the reader. The only thing I wish about this book is that it hadn’t been such a slow start, but definitely worth the read in the end! I’ll be looking out for the second book 🙂

Detective Sheldon is a well developed character. I know and understand (maybe better than most due to my career) that profanities are used after every word. Comparing this to reality, it is acurrate. When I read a book, however, that is not all I want to read.

As a crime thriller, I enjoyed the plot of the story. Primarily I loved the development of the main character, Detective Sheldon. There are a lot of plot twists that keep you turning the pages. If you love a good mystery, this book is for you.
