My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Finlay is an investigative journalist who is investigating a nightclub in Paris that is also a front for an international human trafficking ring. When Duke shows up, sent by his business partner and his wife to check on Finlay after she misses a planned check in, Duke realizes that Finlay may be in over her head and not even realize it. Duke is a former Navy SEAL and one of the partners of Shadow Defense, a private investigation company. While helping Finlay to try to finish her investigation into the nightclub as quickly and safely as possible, it quickly becomes apparent to Duke that everything is not quite what it appears, including Finlay. Duke doesn’t trust journalists due to past incidents, and finds it hard to trust Finlay, let alone admit his feelings for her. The most important thing to keep in mind going into this book, is nothing is quite what it appears, and you can’t even always trust your own memory. This book is part of a series, but can definitely be read as a stand-alone.

A Girl, StuckA Girl, Stuck by Kelly Elizabeth Huston
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Harry and Trey were a match made in somewhere. I hope they figure it out. The chemistry between them was palpable from their opening banter. They are adorable together.

Harriet “Harry” Smith is stuck. She has been in the same routine for way too long. Harry’s birth parents gave her up for adoption by leaving her on the steps of a police precinct as an infant. Luckily the officer that found her fell in love and adopted her. It was just Harry and her dad (and all the officers) until 5 years ago when he was killed in the line of duty. Harry took a different path than planned.

Trey Popov is a petty criminal that has recently appeared on the scene in connection with the local Russian mob. Trey runs into Harry when she is asked to trail Trey. Harry is a Private Investigator that has been employed by the NYPD. There is an instant connection between Harry and Trey. Except….they can’t. They can’t be in a relationship together because of who they are.

You might figure out the secret if you keep up with all the clues, twists, and turns. You might not. When it comes out, you will know.

Excellent read! Family is really who you choose to have in your life.

This book is a well written and intriguing mystery story. From the moment you start reading it is action packed and fast paced. I was easily hooked on the story and wanted to know what was going on.
Even through everything going on with the book I thought the chemistry between the characters really shone through. Their connection was obvious and added the overall tension of the story. They pulled me in and made me want to go on this adventure with them. As the first book that I have read by this author I can say I thoroughly enjoyed it and I am looking forward to the next.

Critical Care (Chase Care Book 6)Critical Care by R.L. Dunn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the 6th book in the Chase Care Series. These books are medical romance/thrillers. They are full of romance, chemistry but also added drama, danger, and risk to life that will leave you on the edge of your seat with your heart pounding. I would definitely recommend reading these books in order as they are so good and I personally plan on going back and reading reading them.
In this story we are with Tim and Willow.
Tim is a Facility Director and Willow is a travelling Nurse. Willow is running from past bad relationships so isn’t too what to jump into dating Tim but as time progresses they can’t deny their attraction and when Tim goes through a personal battle it really brings home to them just how much they mean to each other. Could this be their second chance at romance?
Add to this a mystery that they need to solve when medication has been tampered with and they need to find out who has done it and why. But as you can imagine trying to uncover something as dark and dangerous as that also leads them into a position where they are putting their lives on the line searching for the truth.

These books can be read as a standalone. I have loved everyone and I couldn’t put this down. I was really captivated by Willow’s and Tim’s story and with the added danger of uncovering the mystery around the medication it really kept me gripped all the way through. I don’t want to give to much more away as you have to read this authors work to truly appreciate it.

A Girl, Stuck is part of the Found Families series. Though I have not read other books in the series, this one can be enjoyed as a standalone book. Harriet, better known as Harry, is a tough PI and criminology professor. I enjoyed getting to know her in this story. She is confident and daring by going undercover to get intel on the Trubetzkoy crime family. I expected a private investigator but enjoyed her unconventional style and approach to gain the upperhand in the situation. The story is pretty fast-paced and kept me reading and wanting more. I also enjoyed the romantic elements of the story as well as the dialogue. I’m now curious to pick up other books by this author. I want to pick up other books in this series to get more insight into other recurring characters in the series.

⭐️⭐️⭐⭐⭐ Book Review

Mistaken Identity is a suspenseful romance that packs a great punch. This was my first time reading a novel written by Caffrey and it grabbed my attention from the very beginning. I had to read this novel from start to finish without putting it down. The mystery portion will keep you on your toes while you attempt to crack the case. The romance was just the right level, not too mushy, but adorable. The characters are charming and down to earth, but not too predictable. The story line was well put together, flowed at great speed, and believable. I highly recommend this novel to any reader who enjoys a good mystery with a light hint of romance on the side. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Mistaken Identity (London Detective Agency Series Book #1) by Stephanie R. Caffrey – Review by Angela Hayes

Mistaken Identity (London Detective Agency)Mistaken Identity by Stephanie R Caffrey
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

4 Stars

 

Mistaken Identity is the first intriguing book in the London Detective Agency series and debut novel by Stephanie R. Caffrey. It is a romantic suspense with tension, mystery, danger, investigation, crime boss – graduate student – PI dynamic, chemistry, angst, emotion, secrets, and dramatic developments.
What should have been the opportunity of a lifetime for graduate student Evelyn Stevenson turns sour quite quickly- propelling her into a situation she could never have imagined. With the help of a PI, Evelyn must navigate this new situation, hopefully before it’s too late.
Looking forward to seeing what Book #2 has in store for us.
Happy Reading

Thank you, Stephanie R. Caffrey!

3.5 Stars

 

A Girl, Stuck is the third book in the Found Families series by new-to-me author, Kelly Elizabeth Huston. This has a bit of a romantic suspense vibe about it- mixed with woman’s fiction. The author has woven an angsty and emotional story full of drama, mystery, suspense, tension, hope, redemption, mafia, law enforcement, investigation, and darker elements. You may want to read the content warning before diving in.
I have to be honest here and say that this cover really doesn’t do the book any justice (in my opinion). If I were browsing, looking for books, this cover would never have caught my attention, or even rated a second glance really. Because, if it were not for the book being recommended in our reading group, I would never have picked it up. A great cover really makes a difference, and I feel the author is missing out on capturing more attention.
I also didn’t realise going into this book that it was the third book in the series, but thankfully it can be read as a standalone without feeling like I was missing anything important. But having said that, I will definitely be going back to read the first two books to find out what happened there and see if there are any interconnected details that flow through to this book, before continuing with the series. And after exploring the authors Goodreads page, I notice that there is no consistency with the covers in the series either- which again, I would have overlooked if I had been browsing and not specifically ‘hunting’. I don’t mind the cover for Book #1, it has some appeal- but the second one is definitely forgettable… sorry to say this because this author can write an engrossing story, and I feel like her books may not be getting the attention that they deserve due to forgettable/unappealing covers. Again, this is just my opinion, and the cover/s didn’t detract from my overall enjoyment of the story.
The story is impactful and intriguing- and the character/s are well-developed individual/s with their own unique quirks and flaws. The character/s continued to develop and grow over the course of the story- adding an extra element of interest to the overall storyline.
Looking forward to “See Sadie Jane Run” Book #4 – due to release later this year (2024).
Happy Reading

Thank you, Kelly Elizabeth Huston!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Tim Holland was assigned to look after his colleagues daughter but he was not accepting to met a sassy nurse, once he returns back to DC he wants to keep the relationship going but it is always hard with a long distance relationship.

Willow has finally finished her travelling nurses contract and back in DC and after the conversations with Tim the relationship seems to be moving fast, although they are still busy they find time for each other. When an opportunity comes up for Willow to go to San Diego Tim encourages her to take it as part of her career advancement.

Tim discovers as part of his job a mystery with patients dying unexpectantly and as he and the rest of Chase investigate lives become threatened and a major illness seems like it will derail Chase care and Security.

This is the sixth book in this series and omg it is just as thrilling as the other books I have read in this series. Tim has cropped up in the other books and have always wondered his story and voila he it is. Willow is a great character for Tim as she is full of sass and is not to afraid to give her opinion which a refreshing avenue in the story.

The story opens up the pharmaceutical industry as what could happen with short stock and supply and demand which is just as riveting as the story itself. The twists and turns in the story had me gripped and reading well into the night to finish it.

I enjoyed the interaction as always of the secondary characters who are becoming like fiends as I read more of the stories related to Critical Care. Can’t wait to read the next book in this series.

Shadowed Deception: A Psychological Suspense Thriller (Shadow Defense Security Series) by Mavery Ellscott – Review by Ayla Phipps

Shadowed Deception: A Psychological Suspense Thriller (Shadow Defense Security Book 3)Shadowed Deception: A Psychological Suspense Thriller by Mavery Ellscott
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Suspense, twists, and unconditional love. This series is already dominating my top five favorite series already. While Drake was sprinkled into book one, and both were in book two, this is finally their time and their story. Dual perspective of Finlay and Drake.
Finlay is an investigative journalist, while on a mission in Mexico she met a seventeen-year-old girl, Gabriella, whose younger sister, twelve-year-old Lola, was taken into the worse trading business in the world. Without hesitation Gabriella flew to Paris in search of her sister and ended up in a trap that landed her owned by Evan. A chance moment taken Gabriella called Finlay who without question flew to Paris and went undercover to help. Thanks to her new best friend, Regan from book two, Drake was sent to look out for her on this dangerous mission. Drake had been watching and thought it was an overexaggerated on Regan’s part until he saw the clues and released that Finlay was poking around something far too big for one person to take on alone. All along the way Drake constantly is battling himself and his attraction to Finlay, while she wants him but thinks he hates her and only sees her as his enemy. Drake’s vast dislike of journalists first showed up in book two and continues here. He understands the power of words and how they can hurt people, only he starts to question his hatred of them when it comes to Finlay, she’s not like them. Finlay wants to better the world and safe everyone she can by exposing bad situations. Everything combined leads to some very intense moments but when the boss that even psycho Evan is afraid of is revealed, is anyone going to be safe again?
Can Finlay keep her promise to save Gabriella and Lola? Will Drake allow himself to follow his heart? Who is the big boss? What do they have to do with Finlay? The characters, honestly keep you coming back time and time again with each little tease. Especially with Drake popping in here and there and now finally getting his story was chef’s kiss. While his reason for hating journalists was sound, he was unfair to lump them all together. Finlay finally accepts she needs help and that she’s not alone. Every page leads to more shock and awe as the story unfolds and leaves you needing answers. Now I am torn between wanting more of Finlay and Drake and really hoping book four will be about Seb and Alexis. Either way I can’t wait, and I’ll see you there when the time comes.

The author is new to me and I was very glad that even though the book is part of a series, each book can be read as a standalone. It was pretty easy to figure out the characters and I didn’t feel like I missed anything. Once you start reading this book, you will want to keep reading it. The characters are well written and you may change your mind about some of them as you are digesting the story.

Harriet Smith, nicknamed “Harry” is a private investigator. She is attempting to find the person who killed her father. Harry is strong and independent but also has a softer side like many women. There are many twists and turns in the book which adds to the world the author created. I enjoyed Harry’s character and look forward to reading the earlier books in the series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Kelly Elizabeth Huston’s book “A Girl, Stuck” was such a fascinating read, I loved all of the unexpected twists and turns that it took. The characters are not who you think they are, which adds so much to the story, it builds intrigue and adds to the storyline. They are beautifully developed, and the storyline moves so quickly that it is easy to get drawn into the character’s lives. I love that Harry is a P.I. which is unusual in most books like this but plays wonderfully with the bad boy that Trey portrays. It’s awesome to follow along as these two navigate their friendship while the spark of romance simmers in the background. Some really scary instances in the story play out, so be warned that there is violence and other adult content within this story, but it is all toned appropriately for the reader. The author did a great job keeping to a realistic storyline, while not overdramatizing the experiences that arise for our main characters. This was a must-read if you are looking for a suspenseful book with a budding romance.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This author manages to weave the steam in with the suspense in mesmerizing ways. In this addition to the series, there are a few surprises along the way. The distrust adds to the tension throughout the story. Not everyone is who they seem to be.

Finlay, an investigative reporter, is undercover as Fiona trying to find a friend’s younger sister that has gotten caught up in the world of human trafficking. Finlay might have jumped into this investigation unprepared, not only for what she discovers but for the situation. Finlay jumped without looking when her friend called in a panic about the sister. Now Finlay is about 10 days from walking away from the club where she is working as a mixologist and exposing what actually goes on at the club. Finlay knows the organization is bigger than what goes on at the bar, but she didn’t realize how big or that she kicked the hornet’s nest getting this far.

Drake is only going to check on Finlay because she is friends with the boss’ wife. That is what he tells himself anyway when he agrees to take this assignment. When he walks in and sees what is going on and who the players are, Drake knows that Finlay is not only in over her head but also in danger. No matter how Drake tries to convince Finlay to let the special investigative security company he works for, composed of former military special forces operatives, take over the investigation, Finlay won’t budge. Finlay made a promise to her friend and she plans to see it through.

As Finlay and Drake get closer to the truth, the danger increases. People are being thrown out of windows and disappearing. Friends are risking their own safety for Finlay and she won’t let anyone get hurt for her. Finlay, Drake and company agree to a plan but things go wrong when Finlay goes missing from the club. As things come closer to the end, Finlay finds out who her true friends are. And, who her true family is.

There is so much heat between Finlay and Drake…wow! I hope we get to see some of these characters again! Seb and Alexis seem great together! Zola is strong and a survivor. I have a feeling that Gabriella is not gone forever. But we can only wait (not so patiently) and see. Jump into this series now!!

An entertaining and engaging romantic crime story which is full of suspense and which kept me hooked throughout. Main character Harriet “Harry” Smith is a tough if slightly reckless private investigator and a criminology professor in New York City. She’s on a surveillance job when she comes face to face with Trey Popov, who is a rising star in the Trubetzkoy crime family. Harry manages to escape and on their second meeting she is working undercover as a schoolteacher, but can’t help but feel an attraction to Trey. Despite wanting to climb the criminal ladder Trey can’t deny the connection he and Harry have, even though they are putting themselves in danger. Meanwhile, Harry is also looking for justice for her police detective father who was murdered. The descriptive narrative brings both the setting and the characters vividly to life, which made me feel fully immersed in the story. The storyline has plenty of plot twists which kept me guessing as to the outcome of the story, and although it’s part of a series it can be read as a standalone story. However, having met Harry in this novel I am keen to read the previous books in the series.

This happens to be Tim and Willow’s story and will not disappoint. Full of action, drama, medical jargon, emotions and so much more.

I really enjoyed this book. It is book 6 of the Chase Care series, but even though I didn’t read the others prior to this one, it was not a problem. The relationship between Tim and Willow is well developed and does have some spicy romance parts, but the majority of the book is a very captivating storyline with lots of twists and turns and lots of great characters. I appreciated the medical and military/security jargon to give the reader a deeper sense of the story. I did really enjoy this book and will more than likely go back and read some of the others in the series.

This is the first R.L. Dunn book I’ve read, not offhand realizing that it was book 6 in the Chase Care series. That being said, other than being annoyed with myself for not starting at the beginning, you don’t HAVE to start at book 1, so don’t be discouraged if this is the topic that pulls you in!
Being in the medical field myself, I really really enjoyed that aspect of the story. There were enough things that I found relatable having worked both in oncology as well as the acute care (hospital) setting that I found the storyline very fun! The romance progressed quickly, which was enjoyable as well, and there were a number of *gasp* moments that had my husband turning to check on what was happening only to see me deep in the story. Definitely a catchy read, I’m eager to catch up on the rest of the Chase Care series!

This was another great read from this series – one that I am really enjoying. I loved Tim and Willow’s story – the author has done a great job with this series and cleverly intertwined all the characters but also allowing the stories to be read independently. The romantic suspense element to the story was great and I was certainly left guessing a few times. Tim and Willow definitely had a great connection and I loved watching their relationship evolve across the book, they definitely had some moments where they were up against things and it was interesting who they called upon for help!

One can truly underestimate what the human body is able to take. Well, most people anyway. Not this author. She will take the human body and spirit right to the very edge and then slowly walk it back to sanity. Amazing.

Tim is thriving in his position. But Chase takes care of family. So Tim agrees to go Maine to care for a friends’ partner. Tim meets a traveling nurse helping out at the same hospital. They bond over everything from patient care to being from DC to movies to food. They just get each other. Tim is truly smitten and takes it slow. He doesn’t want to spook the best thing that ever happened to him.

Willow started as a traveling nurse shortly after her relationship to a possessive, controlling, abusive doctor ended with an intervention from her brothers. These contracts only took Willow away for 3 months at time but they kept her on the move and from building attachments to anyone. Until Tim. Tim sparked things in her that no one had ever before. When he left her in Maine, She took a long hard look at what she wanted and what she wanted was Tim. Willow reached out to him in DC.

Tim’s return home began with an exploding bus. Things only got more complicated from there. A colleague reached to discuss a growing problem of possible contaminated chemo drugs. As the mystery grew, so did Tim and Willow’s relationship. But Willow didn’t want to stop being Willow. Just as their relationship was taking new steps, Willow was requested for a new contract position in California. It was only 13 weeks. Could Willow and Tim make it that long?

As Willow started her new job, Tim clasped 3 miles from the end of the annual marathon he ran honoring his mother. Upon examination, it was more than just the sinus infection and exhaustion Tim thought it to be. It was lymphoma. Willow had to make the choice, return home to be with Tim or risk everything to stay? Willow chooses love.

As Tim gets worse, the conspiracy to flood the market with under-effective or contaminated chemo drugs is revealed. As the players are identified, there are many surprises. Relationships are destroyed. People are not who they were thought to be. Money and power lust rule. Will Tim survive? Can their new love overcome the trials?

This one was a little heavy with all the medical jargon and procedures but it all turns out to be necessary to the story. Great recurring cast of characters. Can’t get enough of Flynn!! Love how the Chase family takes care of their own. Another fantastic addition in this series!!

Critical Care (Chase Care Book 6)Critical Care by R.L. Dunn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Medical drama in Book form! I am here for it! I enjoyed all of the previous books I have read by this author and this one wasn’t any different. The main draw to this book for me was the suspense. Our main characters found out someone was tampering with chemo medication and they work together to find the culprit. It is definitely a dangerous route because the bad guy is fine with hurting people but their lives being in danger isn’t enough for them to stop trying to take them down. I enjoyed both mcs and their overall story. I am looking forward to reading more by this author!
Happy Reading!
