My rating: 4 of 5 stars

When a dark stranger enters your world and answers all your hopes and dreams, is it just too good too be true?

Foxxy is an escort who has not had a great beginning in life, but when her pimp arranges a hideous act to happen to her she becomes angry and bitter. One night while working she meets Richard who seems like the one person she can trust to get her out of the world in which she finds herself.

Richard believes this woman is the one for him but can he convince her to trust him, things have happened to Foxxy for her to be weary to trust any man but when her roommate is murdered and she believes it is her pimp Eddie has had a hand in it, he will do anything to bring justice.

I enjoyed this story greatly, Foxxy is a character that although she has been through bad things she is still strong, intelligent and brave women. The story weaves through the mystery of her roommate being killed and follows the lines of enquiry as you feel you are with the main characters trying to piece together the motive and answers.The story is fast paced and well constructed and written, this is not the first story I have read by this author and definitely won’t be the last.

This was such a great read, it was a short story but in true Ms Abbott style there was nothing lacking in the storyline. Foxxy was a great character to read about, I really enjoyed her story. The author always does well with her characters development and this story was no exception. There were some emotional moments in the story and they were well written and also a few unexpected twists. I would definitely recommend The Equalizer: Foxxy’s Tipping Point to other readers!!

I won’t lie, I had no idea what I was going to be getting myself into when I picked up The Equalizer: Foxxy’s Tipping Point by Allyson R. Abbott. I chose it and had to have it when I saw the cover. I mean what is not to love about the drool worthy cover haha. I couldn’t wait to see what this was all about and I am so glad that I did. We meet Foxxy, a call girl with a terrible pimp and life that leaves a lot to be desired. Foxxy meets one evening a man who has decided that she is the one and will stop at nothing to make sure he gets her. He offers her a better life, and even better revenge against her terrible pimp. The problem is Foxxy doesn’t know if she should trust him. I honestly loved these two and reading their story. I was on the edge of my seat a lot of the time hoping and praying that Foxxy would get her happily ever after. I will definitely be back for book two in the series and I can’t wait to see what adventure awaits us there!

Night Justice (A Chicago Vigilantes Novel Book 1) by India Kells
4 Stars

Orla Karlson is a reporter who sets out to uncover who will be dealing a new drug in Chicago. With disastrous side effects, Phantom can do serious damage. Orla has to find a way to stop it. As her pet project she’s trying to uncover the identity of a vigilante who metes out his own justice. Realizing that they have a common goal, to stop Phantom, they decide to collaborate. The chemistry between the two is electrifying but with danger lurking around every corner, can these two connect?

I loved that Orla was a strong, no nonsense female lead. The vigilante, though on the wrong side of the law, had his own set of morals. The story is filled with danger, action and romance, what more could you ask for? I found it was a little slow at the beginning but once it picked up, boy was it a page turner! I’ve read a few of this authors’ books before and this was just as good as the others.

Night Justice
A Chicago Vigilantes Novel
Book 1
By India Kells
☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
This is an intense romantic story. Not for those under 18. Due to adult content.

Orla Karlsen is a top notch journalist and he is on a deadly case. She is strong willed and independent. Has learned to fend for herself. Now she is in deep and looking for a way out. In comes the Vigilante. Is he good or bad, only reading this book can answer this question. Don’t forget the Phantom! It must be stopped.

India Kells is the writer of this Suspenseful Romance. This was really intense starting on page 1. Kept me on the edge of my seat. This is one of those stories, you can’t put down. I love Sam! He is so intense and sexy. That is how he was written in this story. I also love strong women, ones that can defend themselves. India Kells has really done her job with this the first book in the series.

On top of that, Madeline’s event coordinator business is preparing for a lavish weekend extravaganza for a client’s fortieth birthday. On top of these good things happening to her businesses, Madeline finds out one of her kidnappers is being released from jail.

As the weekend birthday party is in it’s final days of preparation, a simple background check is requested by the matriarch of the family. This simple job turns into a murder investigation. What will Mike and Madeline find out about this family…

I loved the first book in the series and this one didn’t disappoint.

A High Price to Pay, the second book in the Madeline Dawkins series is a fantastic continuation of Spouse Trap. I feel this book deserves a 4 star rating as I thoroughly enjoyed the book from start to finish, just as much, if not more than the first book.
I really liked Madeline’s character in the first book but her development throughout this book makes her even more enjoyable. I believe I mentioned in my review of Spouse Trap that the first book I read by this author was a completely different genre and I was truly impressed with the range of writing, the strength of storyline and the twists and turns that kept me invested. Once again Cynthia Hamilton has impressed me with the strength of her writing and I would recommend this series to anyone that enjoys a well written mystery.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A High Price To pay is the 2nd book in the Madeline Dawkins Series by Cynthia Hamilton. This is a great detective series which is thrilling and fast paced.
3 years have passed since we left Madeline and Mike at the end of Spouse Trap. They are now newly qualified as private detectives and Madeline is still working in her role as an event planner. When a huge glamorous event that Madeline is working on becomes a murder enquiry, her and Mike become embroiled in solving the murder.
At the same time one of the thugs who kidnaped Madeline 3 years earlier is back on the scene and Madeline’s life is in danger.
This is a very fast paced, thrilling, suspenseful novel that I was hooked on from the very beginning. As much as I enjoyed Spouse Trap, I thought this book was so much better. I was so engaged in the storyline and couldn’t wait to see how it all panned out.
Cynthia Hamilton sure knows how to write a detective story. The intricate plot is so well thought out and keeps you hooked and you will not want to put this book down.
I can’t wait to read more of Madeline and Mike’s adventures.

A High Price to Pay is the second novel in the Madeline Dawkins series. In ‘A High Price to Pay’, Madeline is working as both an events coordinator and as a private investigator, her jobs cross paths during a weekend long fortieth birthday extravaganza for the wife of a famous film director. Following the theft of some family jewels, Madeline does a background check and along with Mike is soon dealing with a murder investigation. To add to her troubles Madeline is informed that one of the men that abducted her three years previously is being released early having done a deal with the Feds. As Madeline helped put Rick Yeoman in prison she fears he may come after her.
This is a gripping murder mystery, crime drama with a fast paced storyline and great characters. It was lovely to be back with Madeline who is still dealing with the events from book one and who along with partner Mike is continuing with her private investigator work. Madeline is a wonderful female lead and I love her witty one liners. The story had me hooked from page one just as the previous book in this series did. Although it can be read as a standalone story, personally I feel the reader would enjoy it more if they have read the previous book and so have Madeline’s backstory.
I look forward to future books in this series.

A High Price to Pay is the second installment in the Madeline Dawkins series by Cynthia Hamilton. This was an amazing book to read and I have become personally possessed with these books and author. You will find crime, murder, and suspense that will keep you on the edge of you chair while you read. In this book you follow Madeline who is doing a simple background check over missing family jewels with her partner Mike. But things took a quick turn when there is now a murder investigation. I have loved Madeline from the beginning but quickly fell in love with Mike after seeing who he was and how protective he is over her. But then that sleezy Lionel returns and makes Madeline his newest target. What will happen next? You will love this series and I highly recommend reading it.

A High Price to Pay is the second novel in the Madeline Dawkins series by Cynthia Hamilton. Madeline is pursuing two professions, event coordinator and private investigator. With her life long friend Mike, she stumbles into a murder investigation and shortly after another body is discovered. While all this is going on, Madeline gets news that Rick Yeoman, a man who abducted her three years ago, has been released from jail. With the release of Rick also brings the reappearance of Lionel Usherwood, who is seeking revenge. Yeoman’s body is found in Lake Cachuma and Madeline is Lionel’s next target.

The author did a wonderful job portraying such a thrilling mystery. The story did seem to end abruptly while other less important parts dragged on, but overall I think it was well written. I look forward to reading other stories by Hamilton.

A High Price To Pay is the second book in the Madeline Dawkins series by Cynthia Hamilton. This series should be read in order because of the backstory you learn in the first book. This book grabbed my attention from the very first page and I couldn’t put it down until the last. The characters grew and the writing was smooth. Madeline’s catering business turned into a job for her and Mike’s private investigation business. This book is full of twists and turns that will keep you guessing until the end. I can’t wait to read the next book.

This book did not disappoint me. I had some higher expectations of this book since it was the second book and inwas familiar with the author and she delivered and then some.

We pick up with Madeleine and Mike three years after the last book. They are official Private Investigators and ready to go once Madeleine is done with this over the top birthday party.

I’m usually pretty good about figuring out things before it’s revealed but this one had me stumped with a lot of changing of my mind and I loved it.

You can read this without reading the first but I would suggest you start at the beginning for background.

You can not fault this author at all with the way in which she captivates you with her incredible reading style and epic characters. She has created secondary characters that really stand-out as well as help support and tells Madeline’s story.
I was turning the pages with this read wondering what would could or happen next, it will leave you wanting more! I can’t wait to see what else this author brings and what is to come to this series next.

A High Price to Pay is the second book in the Madeline Dawkins series by Cynthia Hamilton. This is another exciting mystery following Madeline Dawkins sleuthing adventures. This story takes place three years after the ending of book one. With the event planning/private investigation business in full swing- Madeline is caught up in planning a huge shindig for Hollywood elite. A year in the making, Madeline needs everything to go off without a hitch. But Madeline seems to attract trouble. The party turns into a murder investigation when a body is discovered in an upstairs bedroom. And Madeline is on the list of suspects. Added to her troubles is the fact that one of her abductors from the previous book, has cut a deal and is being released early. Will he be gunning for Madeline, since she helped put him away? His release draws out the evil leader of the kidnappers, who is hell bent on revenge. Things turn into a deadly game of cat and mouse, where Madeline and Mike will need to keep their wits about them and harness all their skills if they are to survive.
This cleverly crafted story has all the elements required to make it riveting. Missing jewels, an FBI investigation, a huge ‘Hollywood’ event, murder, suspense, unravelling three mysteries, betrayal, a reunion, revenge, a game of cat and mouse, a life or death battle for survival, and much more.
I loved all the excitement, emotion, tension, drama, and intrigue that Ms. Hamilton always manages to instil in her stories- I can always count on her for an exciting read.
Fantastic!

Thank you, Cynthia Hamilton!

I do highly recommend reading these stories in order to fully enjoy and to not have any confusion. Our main character Madeline has grown a bit and I felt a better connection to her this time around. The storyline is well written and paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking anything. I found myself awake late to see it through until the very end and not being able to put it down. I’m excited to see where this author takes readers next. Four stars and highly recommended!

Madeline is back with a side kick. Her and Mike have set up a Private Investigating business but its slow to pick up business at the moment so she decides to still take on her event planning role full time while it develops it clientele.

While organising the biggest party of the year she stumbles across there first case. The clients mother has had some missing jewellery stolen and has hired Madeline and Mike to investigate the crime but when there is a famous film director and people around him are suspects the plot thickens.

As they are investigating, Madeline discovers that there is a man from her past which may be trying to sabotage the whole thing, but while trying to organise the biggest party in Santa Barbara, trying to find out who stole the jewellery and thinking will there business survive who knows.

This book was a great second instalment in this series and the character interactions where just as good as the first book. The story flowed and was a page turner, the plot twists and turns and you feel like you are in the story helping them through to solve the mystery they behold.

I can’t wait to read the next book in this series and see the relationship grow between Mike and Madeline in the future.

A High Price to Pay by Cynthia Hamilton a feisty four-star read. This is number two in the Madeline Dawkins series and I would say that it is best to read them in order, I did and I enjoyed them that way as I didn’t feel lost at all reading the second story. This is a great whodunnit and it kept me guessing, I did guess right at first but then thought I didn’t and then just got so wrapped up in the story that I didn’t truly care. This has so many strings to the story, but the author does a great job of keeping it all together and plaiting them together to make a story that is easy to follow and really fun to read. If you like a mystery, then this is one for you. I only gave it four as there were a couple of bits that annoyed me but overall, it was very good.

This is the second book in the Madeline Dawkins series and and its a great book.

After all the trauma cause to Madeline in the first book by her ex husband, she is back as a trained P.I with her close friend Mike.

She also still runs her event co-ordinator job as well. Her next job sees her planning a 3 day party for a famous client. However, things arent as rosy as they seem when the clients mother-in-law seeks Madelines help to find the person responsible for stealing her precious jewellery.
With both businesses taking off Madeline certainly has her hands full.

An added complication occurs when one of the men who was part of the plan that kidnapped her is released only to be found dead days later. Is the man that escaped justice Usherwood back getting his revenge on the people who turned him in and will Madeline be next on his hit list.

Its a great story that keeps you hooked and guessing. It has a strong and independent female main character which is nice.

Once again Cynthia Hamilton delivers a great story. In A High Price to Pay (Madeline Dawkins Mysteries Book 2) we follow the continuing story of Madeline Dawkins. Now the proud owner of her own detective agency we follow Madeline on an exciting journey. Not only does her past come back to haunt her but the double jeopardy of a new case lands on her plate. That rapidly becomes a triple play. I loved watching the evolution of Madeline in this story and I love how her partner Mike is all about her. This one was a page turner for sure and you will not be disappointed.

A High Price to Pay (Madeline Dawkins Mysteries Book 2) by Cynthia Hamilton is the follow up book to Spouse Trap, it does refer back to some of the events in that book so I would recommend that readers make sure that they have read it first to fully appreciate the story. In A High Price to Pay, Madeline has recently received her P.I licence and, along with her friend and colleague Mike, are ready to start taking cases. Unfortunately for Madeline her first case is a bit close to home. The mother in law of her biggest client from her event planning business asks her to investigate some missing items from her home. However, the case is not as clear cut as it first seems. At the same time a threat from Madeline’s past has resurfaced and it making his ominous presence known. Madeline is not only facing the toughest case of her career so far; she is also watching over her shoulder in fear of her safety. I thoroughly enjoyed this book; I love the development of the characters and the twists in the story. Perfect for anyone who likes a good mystery.
