My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was an absolutely fantastic thriller! I highly recommend picking up previous books, but if you happen to read this as a standalone, I believe you’ll be able to catch up with the background provided. If there was an “unputdownable” genre, this book would be at the top of the list. I ignored all my responsibilities for the day because I could not stop reading this book! I love that it is told from different points of view throughout the story, and the suspense is absolutely top notch. Tom finds himself in danger again trying to carefully figure out who he can trust and who is determined to see the end of his days. Will he be able to make it out and survive or is this finally the end of Tom? This is a gripping read that will have you in a trance from the very first chapter. Don’t pass it up or you’ll be missing out!

Motherland (Tom Grant #3)Motherland by Samantha Adair
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the third book in the series, but it can be read as a standalone. I didn’t pay close attention and read this one first, so I was pleased to find that I wasn’t lost without the first two books. I plan on picking them up soon though because this was an amazing read! I feel that I am pretty good at predicting what will happen in most books, but this one was a rollercoaster of unpredictable twists and turns. The flow of the story is magnificent, and I enjoyed the non-stop action and adventure. I don’t want to give anything away here, but please don’t skip this book! Reading about Tom and Isabella’s mysterious and thrilling adventures will preoccupy your time for the rest of the day!

I enjoyed reading this suspenseful story. This is not my first book by this author and this is a series that I enjoy reading. This is the sixth book in the series which is just as great as the previous books. I highly suggest reading the previous books as well, it will help your enhancement of this author’s writing skills and the characters. I found this book to be well written and hard to put down. I enjoyed how the author used details to pull me into the character’s lives. They are connectable and keep the story engaging. There is great growth throughout the story which just adds to the story’s entertainment. The twist and turns had me turning pages fast just to see what would happen next. This is a fast paced story that you don’t want to miss. I highly recommend this book and this series.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Lost Property is the 6th book in the Tom Grant Series, but the first one I read. I felt like I was missing out on a lot of the relationships… even after finishing, I am struggling to piece together how everyone is related. Aside from that, I really enjoyed the book. It was action packed with crime and suspense. The book is focused around a kidnapping and human trafficking ring, but it isn’t very disturbing. It more focuses on the process of tracking down the missing girls, and trying to figure out the bad guys along the way. I kind of wish the author put a little more recap into the story, as far as why Tom is recently retired. How Martha is related to him. Where he met Mischa and background on their relationship. Tom and James don’t get along, but I am not entirely sure why…. Guess I need to go back and read the first 5 books to get my answers. I enjoyed the writing style and will be adding this author to my read lists.

Tom thought he was done with that part of his life. He and Isabelle are living in a quaint house with a big yard and an older neighbor that likes to bring Tom soup. Then he receives a call that threatens to drag him back into the black hole of sex trafficking and saving the lost. This is a suspenseful book that keeps you guessing who is double-crossing who. I wasn’t interested at first because I couldn’t keep track of the characters, but I stuck with it and ended up really liking the book.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I’m a little sad to see this amazing series come to an end!! I am so glad that I gave this series a chance. As previously mentioned in other reviews, I struggle with dual time line stories. This author made it so easy for me to follow the story and I almost felt like I was in the story myself at times!

It’s up to Julia and a few of her close friends to save Nick from this eternal purgatory that he’s found himself in. The Order is just not going to let him walk away from the deeds that he’s done, or that they think he’s done.

This book is just as full of action and adventure as the previous books. It’s vital that these be read in order to preserve the storyline and to have it make sense. If you love historical based reads, grab this one. If you like that this is also a bit of a thriller, it will only enhance your reading experience more. I will be adding this author on my list of those to watch out for because his writing is extremely enjoyable to me!!

It’s very important to read these books in order to understand the context of what’s happening.

This book picks up right where Book 1 (The Prisoner of Paradise) left off. Nick and Julia are still trying to get back home when they are sent back to Venice. The Order is not about to let them get away with what they think is important information.

There is a lot of action and adventure in this story as well! There are a few twists and turns that I did not see coming. I really enjoy this author’s writing and look forward to reading more great stories of his!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Nick is an avid hockey player. One wrong move though and he found himself sidelined with a head injury that he is in denial over. When an opportunity for the trip of a lifetime to Venice comes along, Nick and his wife Julia are excited. Julia is concerned that it might be too much for Nick though. Eventually, they make the journey where Julia has an opportunity to write for a prestigious publication but they are going to soak up as much as tourists can while on a working vacation. When they visit an art gallery and see Tintoretto’s Paradise, things start to get a little interesting for Nick. He soon finds himself embroiled in a mystery that is over 400 years old with a need to release trapped souls.

This book is one that I wasn’t sure I would enjoy but I wanted to give it a chance and I’m so glad that I did. Normally, I struggle with dual time-line stories but this one was written in a way that didn’t affect me like others have in the past. I was engrossed in this story from word one page one. I’m super excited about other stories in this series! I love the mystery, intrigue, and the historical aspects of this adventure.

Master of the Abyss (Painted Souls Series Book 3) by Rob Samborn. This is the final book in the Painted Souls series and wow its packed full of goodies. I do believe you will better enjoy it if you read the previous books. Its the continuation of Julia trying to get her husband out of purgatory along with others. Julia and her friends are trying with everything they have to stop Salvatore della Porta from reigning supreme over all. They are tracking a very old journal across Europe, to Asia then back again to Venice and all the while they have Salvatore’s men on their tale. Their end goal is find the relic that will destroy the “sun crystal”. Not only Nick needs to be freed but thousands of others are captured. With time against them, Juila and her team will try everything in their power to destroy Salvatore before he takes over and destroys them all. This is a fast paced, sit down and buckle up, historical thriller. I loved every minute of it and hate for it to end!

This is the first book I’m reading by this author. I was worried about starting a series in book 6. However, it didn’t take long before I was following each of the characters sharing their side of what happened to understand the situation. Tom Grant had retired but gets sucked back into help a young woman held in a human trafficking situation. The story is fast paced, action, and so much more. I’m sad that I am reading the last book in the series. I’d love to be able to read the whole series from the beginning. Great world and character building by this talented author.

This is the 6th book in the Tom Grant Series. This book was enjoyable as a standalone however I feel if I read them from the beginning I would get even more enjoyment out of the characters and the story.
This is a crime thriller. Filled with dangers, twists and turns, hidden agendas and a feeling of not knowing who you can trust.
After leaving his position in the agency Tom is dragged back against his will when his ex partner has 2 woman turn up on his door. Both of them are victims of the human trafficking ring and there is a 3rd woman who holds information on the human trafficking ring that is in danger.
Now it is a race against time to save the other woman and stop the boss of the human trafficking ring before she can harm anyone else.

This is a fast paced gripping story that I couldn’t put down. I am looking forward to going back in the series and reading from the beginning as this type of series is definately what I enjoy reading.

This is the sixth book in the Tom Grant series, and while it can be a standalone, I highly recommend reading them in order as it helps with character development and backstory. As with the other books in this series, it is full of plot twists, turns, and danger. This time around, Tom is trying to enjoy his retirement after a life of running, hiding, and overall drama that the life of an agent entails. He simply just wants to live in peace and leave his past behind him with Isabella. Poor, poor Tom…life is never that simple. When 2 women from a previous case show up (Melody and Annika), he immediately wants to turn them away, he is done with that part of his life. Isabella convinces him to talk to them, one last favor. This decision throws Tom right back into the life he so desperately is trying to escape, and now he is dead center in the middle of a human trafficking ring and everyone is in danger. Can Tom escape this time, with everyone safe, or will his career finally catch up to him?

This is the third book in the Tom Grant series and I really liked the continuous action with twists and turns all the way through. This is my first book by this author and was able to read it as a standalone, even though it is the third book, but I will be going back to read the others to see if there is any further character development or backstory to enhance this read. There were a couple instances where I was lost or confused on details, so that is why I want to go back and read the others (plus it is a really good story!). In this book, Isabella’s father has passed away and she plans to take his body back to her homeland of Belarus, a country bordered by Russia and Ukraine. This alone is dangerous since Isabella has a bounty for her capture, and she is not sure who put the bounty on her or why. When circumstances brings a childhood friend back into her life, things are not as they seem, and he is not the same boy she remembers. Threats against Tom makes her delve back into the life she had thought she left behind, and now she has to find her escape in a dangerous world where even her friends may not be trusted.

This book was well written. I definitely believe that you need to read the others in this series in order to fully understand what is happening and develop a true connection with the characters. One thing I found was my interest waning as the book went on. I just found myself trying to skip ahead.

However, the characters were well developed and so was the world. While I zoned out in some parts, others were great and held my attention. Overall, I would recommend this series; just make sure you read the others prior to reading this one!

This was my first foray into this series. Although the story is great with lots of twists and criss-crosses to keep you guessing, I can definitely see where having the background on the characters makes a difference. This story is well-written and a fantastic read.

I started off thinking that there were too many POVs telling this story. But I later realized that one would miss so much of the story if not told from the multiple POVs. Each character is written so real. There were no crazy gazillionaires or super spies with really cool gadgets, just hardworking agents and retired agents trying to keep some important people from getting lost in the world of evil and bad people.

Tom is trying to enjoy his retirement from whatever secret service with no name he worked at and find some peace in his life after seeing all the evil that man hath wrought. When two women from his past that are attached to memories that haunt him, Tom gets pulled into finding a third woman to keep her safe while trying to protect the other two.

Not knowing who he can trust except his former team that he doesn’t want to put in danger, Tom is practically completing this on his own. His stubborn teammates come along for the ride and help him. When one of his own gets mixed up with the bad guys, Tom is more determined to keep all three of the women and his team safe.

So much excitement. So much action. So much much. Fast moving. Never slows down. Who is really an ally? One one way to find out…read this book!

Both Melody and Annika are wanted for the information that they know. With their handler dead, there is only one person they can trust and that is Tom. Tom, however, is out of the game… he’s done. Until…. he gets a call from James asking for help. Isabella is thrown into her past with the emergence of the two girls running from their “owner”. With agencies working hard to bring down the crime ring, can Operation Sweetpea finally be over? With leaks and betrayals at every turn, the race to end it all is proving to be costly.

I enjoyed reading the end of this series. There was so much going on and happening, but I was able to keep track of it all without feeling overwhelmed or lost. The author did a great job of tying up loose ends and wrapping up the storyline. The twists were perfect and kept me guessing. I was very pleased with end and how it all played out.

Lost and Found
By: Valerie Davisson

I feel like every time I read a Logan McKenna Book, I swear that there is no way that Valerie Davisson could write a better book. Then there is a new release and it is better than the last one I read. This book is no exception.
In this story, Logan is mixed up with an accident on a crab boat. When a local fisherman is washed overboard and feared dead – Logan is determined to find out who did it. Especially after someone she knows is accused of being involved.
Logan is such a fantastic character and the people she surrounds herself with are such an addition to this book. I loved how in this book there was a sub plot that featured an illegal immigrant who finds himself in trouble. This looked at some real concerns for people who are living in our country. Sam in this book just really sweetened the story. The plot in this book moved so fast and featured so many twists and turns. Everytime I thought that it was all figured out another wrinkle would come into play. I read the last half of this book in one sitting because I just did not want to put it down – I had to know how it would end.
I definitely recommend picking up this story. It is so very good and really sucks you in. If you haven’t read the others I recommend reading those as well! You won’t be disappointed!

You know what I’ve enjoyed most about this series is we either broach a subject that many see as taboo and or something new and this time I was introduced to the world of crabbing , it’s hard work and it seems rather dangerous …..

Dead bodies seem to be piling up ( a little exaggeration) on this little coastal town and people are on edge and rightly so and one of Logan’s friends , Sam , is a prone suspect and she’s determined to prove him innocent but even she’s having a hard time because everything seems to point to him and she’s getting opposition as far as she goes and Al is not as it seems in this little town , this time it feel like Logan may have bitten off more than she can chew 🤷‍♀️

Logan never disappoints she always gets what she wants and more often than not that means she’s in the line of fire , she’s a good woman with a good heart ? I’ve really enjoyed my time with her and all she gets up to ❣️📚

This is the first book in this series that I’ve read and I highly recommend that the books are read in numerical order to have a better understanding of the story at hand. As I started reading this book, I was a bit lost in the details. Some stories I’ve read give out some details along the way and this one gives very little so you are forewarned. Besides getting the content of the story at hand, the story was pretty good and intriguing. The story takes place with Tom and Isabella, whose father has recently passed away and plans to take his body back home to Belarus. The major difficulty in doing so for Isabella is the bounty out for her capture. The plan is to go there and back to London in five days time with the help of Tom during the journey. But when she is discovered back home, she ends up being separated from Tom and led into a life she was running away from. The only way to escape is through dangerous means and hoping that the right people can be trusted to handle the task at hand.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The book cover art immediately made me feel as if I was about to watch a scary movie or read an extremely scary intense suspenseful book. I began reading this and did not want to put the book down, again due to the storyline being just as intense and suspenseful as I expected. This book follows Tom, a newly retired agent who simply wants to live his life outside of the agency and with his love, Isabella. However, when two young ladies involved with a previous case contact Tom’s agency friends demanding his immediate attention, his immediate reaction is to ignore or reject. However, when Isabella asks him to do one last favor and speak to the young ladies, he begrudgingly agrees. This is when Tom’s life takes a turn. The author then introduces you to the secret mission Tom previously was involved with that revolved around a tragic human trafficking ring. In his attempt to limit the amount of people involved with this off-the-books scenario, Tom finds that everyone involved and their loved ones are in danger.

You follow the adventure to find the location of a few of the victims of the tragic ring, and gather as much intel as possible on the folks involved with the expansive trafficking network. While the reader will find themselves on the edge of their seat, I think the thrilling conclusion of this book will leave them wondering what is next.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the creation of these incredibly complex characters. I cannot wait to catch up w/ the entire series and follow the author’s success due to their incredibly creative gift of story telling.
