My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

4.5 Stars

 

The Better Man is the superb second book in the Silver Buckle Brides series by Laurie Lewis. After reading most of Ms. Lewis’s books now, and having loved ‘Cross Country Christmas’, the first book in the series, there was no question as to whether I would want to read this book or not, instantly snapping up a copy as soon as I saw it had released…
I love all of Ms. Lewis’s books, and I love how she infuses so much heart and soul into her stories, leaving them brimming with emotion. Her characters are always so well developed and have so much depth to them, they really bring the story to life and deliver all the ‘feels’.
Looking forward to the next release from Ms. Lewis!
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Laurie L.C. Lewis!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect this story was going to be like, but it turned out to be one of the best romance stories I’ve read. The emotional turmoil the characters faced was spot on. You could feel the hurt from the past. You could also feel the joy. There were lots of life lessons imbedded as well. This is a great read for romance lovers but also for anyone grieving over a loss in any form. For those who have hit rock bottom and climbed back up. For those who have fought their demons and won. For those who struggle to find their worth. For those who simply want to be seen. There is something in here for everyone. Including forgiveness and Gods love.

I have read a lot of Laurie’s books and really enjoy them. She doesn’t just write one genre which I really like because you never know what you are going to get.
The Better Man is the second wonderful book in the Silver Buckle Brides series. Cross-Country Christmas drew me in and so did this one. It is a heart-warming romance that is full of lots of different emotions. Two souls who have had tragic pasts that have shaped them to who they are now.
This story has a little bit of everything with Cowboys, an ex who will do anything to get what he wants and a ranch. There is also tragedy and pain, angst and hurt, hope and forgiveness, family and friendship, treachery and love, healing and spirituality.
Jamie is trying hard to leave his past behind, but old doubts rise when an ex turns up. Laramee has her issues but returns home to save what is hers but when her ex turns up, he threatens it all. She literally crashed into his life, now it is not just a truce they have found they have found so much more.

This book offers a heartfelt journey through redemption and personal growth. With deeply drawn characters and a story that navigates the complexities of human emotions, it’s a compelling read. Although it occasionally suffers from slow pacing, the narrative remains engaging, culminating in a satisfying exploration of forgiveness. A beautifully told story that merits a 4.5-star rating for its insightful and moving portrayal of its characters’ paths to betterment.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a very emotional, heart strings pulling, kind of read. Laramee was running from her past, from all those who loved her, all because communication was broken between them. Jamie was also running, but in a different direction. When their paths crossed during a business deal, Laramee and Jamie have to make some very difficult decisions regarding their future paths.

I love this book and am so glad that I picked it up! It was difficult to read in parts but overall, the story put a smile on my face and lifted my spirits. I was not aware that this was part of a series and never felt like I was missing any ties to possible previous characters or situations. I do want to go back and read the first book in this series though! I highly recommend this read!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is an author that I never hesitate to pick up. I have enjoyed reading her books from the first one I picked up by her. I enjoy her writing style as well as her attention to details that make her character come to life. They are written with a lot of heart which makes them great characters. This is a well written story about second chances. Laramee fled her home years ago but now that her parents could lose that home, she is going home. What happens from here you don’t want to miss for sure. The past comes to the present for these characters. Two men want Laramee but which one is the better man? I enjoyed watching the growth of these characters and the chemistry is strong. I enjoyed what they brought to the story which made the story easy to read. This is a fast paced, hard to put down story that is a must read. I highly recommend this book.

As the second book in the series, this story is a great follow in from the first. It is a story that is so easy to get into and I found myself invested in it straight away. I really enjoyed the characters of this book. From the moment they met I felt their connection and it was such a relatable one. I wanted then to find their way with each other.
This author is one I pick up every now and again and, when I do, I am always reminded as to why I should read more of their work. This book is well written and interesting. I enjoyed how the story unfolded and getting the know the characters. This is a great book that I really enjoyed.

I had to feel for Laramee. I loved this story. She and Jamie have a romance that has chemistry (bearclawman). You’ll have to read it to find out what that reference is for. I loved the chemistry, the romance and the whole story. Jamie gets blindsided and his family cares but needs to listen. It was an amazing story to read. This author leaves you feeling every emotion in the story. I love her writing. I am looking forward to reading more in this series. You must read this one.

In this second book of the series, Tallie is searching for a missing girl but doing so might bring up secrets from Tallies past. While I believe it is possible to read this book as a standalone, having not read the first book, I did feel like I was missing a few details about Tallie and her past. Missing those few details however did not take away from the overall story of the second book nor did it hurt the relatability of the characters. The author did a tremendous job of building relationships between characters while also giving twists and turns that were unpredictable. Great story, looking forward to reading book and more in the series.

Tallie Brown is trying to figure out herself (and her relationship with Jackson) with the revelation of her birth family from the last book. The story follows her in gaining a better understanding of herself while trying to find out the mystery of who is taking previous military personnel. Once her father is taken she is determined to find out who is behind it. All the clues are there for you to determine who is the mastermind. All questions are answered at the conclusion of this book and the ending is highly satisfying. I highly recommend reading this series!

Picking up from where book 1 leaves off, Tallie has discovered why she had so many skills geared towards disappearing and staying hidden. She has also discovered a passion for seeking out lost individuals to bring them home. One night, she gets an Amber Alert and is immediately on the hunt. Her quest for the missing girl leads to some painful truths and lessons regarding her family.

This novel focuses on Tallie discovering that her past appears to be linked to a set of disappearances that have remained unsolved, and now someone she just found existed is on that same list.

Loads of twists and turns, yet again from this author. Very well thought out plot, presented in an incredible way. Great characters and heart. Lots of mystery and suspense and some romance.

This story is amazing… Tallie Brown is by far my favorite character yet. She’s been through trying times and as a strong female lead character, she fights with everything she has. Despite all of the hard life she was forced to lead, she makes the best of what she’s got. She uses her talents for good and keeps going.

I love how involved the author is with her military knowledge and the way that she conveys the story. Her acknowledgements are also heartfelt and I appreciate it so much. She did an amazing job and I look forward to reading more of her work.

Revenge Never Rests is the second book in the Tallie Brown Suspense Series. I did read the first book so I felt that I had all the necessary backstory for this book. If you haven’t read the first book in the series (Secrets Never Die), I highly recommend doing so before diving into this one. Laurie Lewis continues Tallie’s story shortly after the events in the first book. There are several returning characters in this book and, again, Lewis delivers unusual yet realistic, humanized characters. This book follows Tallie in the search for her missing father, Cai Kaswell, along with several other missing persons. While this book has many twists and turns like the first book, I felt this one was a little faster paced, which I enjoyed. Overall, this book is on par, if not higher, than the first book! I look forward to reading more books by Laurie Lewis!

Laurie Lewis delivers an amazing suspense novel with Secrets Never Die. I was on the edge of my seat the entirety of the novel. While the characters were diverse and often unusual, they were realistic and believable. I found myself completely invested in and rooting for Tallie in her search for the answers regarding her past. The world building in Secrets Never Die is amazing. I felt like I was transported to small town Cutler’s Ridge and the surrounding mining communities. There are a lot of connections to follow, but it wasn’t too difficult. There were so many twists and turns, and changes in the story that it kept me interested and entertained in a way I haven’t been in a while. I can’t wait to read the second book in this suspense series!

Learning how strong of a woman Tallie is, despite her unusual and mysterious upbringing, she continues on her own mission in seeking the truth. As she recently discovers who her father, General Cai Kaswell, is considered missing and embarks on a journey to find him and get more questions answered.
Just as the first book, this book is such a great read and keeps you on your toes with action and mystery. Not only is the action and suspenseful aspects of the book amazing but the concept of friendship and valuing its integrity. Such a great series!

This is the second book I have read by Laurie Lewis and is the second book in the Tallie Brown Suspense. A continuation of the first book Secrets Never Die, following the loss of her mother and learning about the secrets that sent her on the run for most of her life.
I enjoyed this fast-paced suspense book! A lot of the stuff in this book felt like it was ripped from today’s headlines. The action and intrigue really drew me in, and I found it hard to put down. It’s a race against time as Tallie Brown is trying to find her father whom she recently discovered and is now missing. One of the biggest twists of the first book is that her mother Julia wasn’t her biological mother and kidnapped her. Despite the dubious circumstances in which she was raised. Tallie learns of a missing girl that she uses the skills she learned while on the run with her mother to help find not only the missing girl but all the missing people. Tallie can thank Julia for everything she taught her about tracking, self-defense, etc. as it comes in handy as the story progresses.

This is the first book I have read by Laurie Lewis. The synopsis drew me in but from page one I was hooked. At first, I was very confused on what was going on and honestly thought I started the 2nd book first by mistake.
It begins in Julia’s point of view, her being in 2014 but still running and hiding from the secrets of her past in 1993. Her one thing that she thought she could do, raising a normal child as a fugitive, until her name starts getting flagged and she receives a call from her handler. After seven seemingly normal years everything comes back in a rush leaving Tallie all alone with the mystery of who her mother was.
What is the Mogadishu incident? What does Julia have to do with it? Why have they been on the run most of Tallies’ life? The world that the author builds submerge the reader in the world. Drawing you into the story and wanting to keep reading to learn the secrets that led to Julia’s death. I made it through this book in one day and can’t wait to start the second book, Revenge Never Rests, to see what happens next in Tallie Brown’s story.

This novel is full of action and suspense. One of those types of stories that will keep you going from beginning to end. Tallie Brown is a girl whose life was led in how her mother deemed and when her mother passes away, Tallie is left to pick up the pieces where she can. As far as she can remember, she has moved from place to place and after her mother’s untimely death, around her 20s, she has found herself in the Pacific Northwest.
Another character, Jackson James, a journalist has made a big mistake and must now pay for it. In the midst of changing a storyline, his path is led to Cutler’s Ridge, a failing Virginia coal town and ends up meeting Tallie. Both loners and led by untrustworthy pasts have intertwined their paths. As truths and mysteries are unraveled, unexpected circumstances occur and nothing is stopping them from discovering what they need to know. Great read and keeps you engaged in what will happen next.

This book is set shortly after the first book in the series. A lot happens in the first book. To understand the characters better, read the first book before this one.

Tallie Brown is still grieving the loss of her mother as well as what will never be (the loss of her biological mother and sister) when she gets news that the father she cannot claim, Cai Kaswell, is missing she jumps at the chance to find him. Seeing as Tallie has a unique skill set, Major Norris knows that she will be a huge asset and welcomes her aboard. This mission brings Tallie into a bigger conspiracy than they thought. Not only is Cai missing, so are many others.

The clues bring the group to Mexico where Tallie is introduced to Burke, the agent on the case. Instantly Tallie does not trust him. She has to learn to work with him while trying to keep things from getting personal for her. Nothing is adding up and Tallie doesn’t know who to trust.

Memories of Tallie’s past with her mother keep her on her toes. She was raised to look at everything and trust no one but it’s hard when it’s your fathers life on the line.

She also has to overcome her feelings of not being good enough if she wants to keep her new found relationship alive.

This book was great. It sucks you in right from the beginning. Compared to the first book it is much more fast paced. I can’t wait to see what the author has in store next time.

This is book 2 in a series. I did not read book 1. While it was good as a stand alone, I think it would be better for the backstories to read book 1 first. In this book we meet Tallie. She is a strong woman character who is on the search for the answer to the disappearance of a missing girl and then of a General Kaswell. Jackson and Tallie have a strong connection and have to make a decision as to whether they should work together or separately. This happens just as she discovered who her real father is.
Throughout this story, there is intrigue, conspiracy and high action. It kept my attention and was a good read on a really long car ride over the holidays. If you like this type of genre, you would rate it much higher than a three.

This book is the second in a series. I did not read the first book, and I was able to follow along just fine. There was some struggle to get everyone straight, but nothing I wouldn’t have expected. My favorite part of this book was that it was clean and didn’t have the F word on every page. That was incredibly refreshing especially paired with a great story! Tallie Brown is a strong female character with completely relatable doubts and issues. I enjoyed hearing her thoughts and reservations. This book is worth the time to read. I look forward to reading more from this author!

This is the follow up story to Secrets Never Die. I definately recommend reading that book first as this book picks up straight from where that one ends.
This story is such a gripping rollercoaster of a read full of even more secrets and lies than the first book. The author does an amazing job with this story making it a gripping read right from the beginning.

Tallie is back and struggling to come to terms with everything that has happened to her. Not only is she dealing with the grief of losing her mother (or so she thought) she also has to deal with the lies and deception that surrounded her life and took her away from her real family. When Tallie’s real father goes missing she is asked to use the skills she learnt to help find him.

As the story progresses we learn more about Tallie’s past and her relationship with the woman she thought was her mother. Now Tallie is on her own and surrounded by people who she doesn’t know if she can trust or not and I have to admit my opinions on those people changed several times and I was in for a few surprises.

This is a great mystery Suspense story that will keep you hooked from the first page to the last. The twists and turns are so good you don’t see it coming until it happens which is an amazing thing in a book.

Definately read the first book and then prepare to have your mind blown when you dive into this one to continue Tallie’s story.
