Crazy Fox Ranch Book Review and Giveaway

NEW RELEASE....

When NY reporter Paige MacKenzie leaves Manhattan for Jackson Hole, she has only two things on her mind: enjoy life with Wyoming's breathtaking Grand Tetons as the backdrop, and spend more time with handsome cowboy Jake Norris as he prepares to open his guest ranch.

As Paige begins to settle in, a stranger's odd behavior leads her to research western filming in the area - in particular, the movie, Shane. Will digging into Hollywood's movie connection with Jackson Hole simply lead to a freelance article for the Manhattan Post, or will it lead to a dangerous hidden secret?

My thoughts:
Paige has made a name for herself as a reporter focusing on Western towns, but every time that Paige goes somewhere she falls into a mystery. She has recently quit her job and moved to Wyoming to be close to Jake, her previously long distance boyfriend.

Paige soon discovers that a man is continuously trying to purchase Jake's property, and something is digging holes all over his property (and all over the area). Can Paige discover who or what is creating the holes before something happens to her or Jake?

I really enjoyed this book, and loved continuing Paige's story! I hope that by staying in one place she still has many mysteries in her future!

First Crush, Last Love Book Review and Giveaway

Back in high school, Lee Archer had the power to make Jessie Baxter's cheeks flush and her heart race. But the popular athlete never wanted to be more than just friends. Ten years later, after a failed marriage and with her journalism career on shaky ground, Jessie's come home for her high school reunion--and Lee still has the power to make her knees weak and her pulse pound.

Lee's teenage years were filled with more trauma and drama than anyone guessed. Though his damaged past has helped make him a successful police detective, it's hurt every relationship he's tried. But seeing the grown-up, stunning Jessie might just change his commitment-phobic mind.

Jessie's psycho ex-husband had her convinced no one would ever love her, but Lee is ready to step out of the friend zone and into her heart. Can she learn to trust again before she loses her chance to turn her first crush into her last love?

Elizabeth McKenna's novel will have you remembering the angst of high school, the grief of a failed relationship, and the joy of finding true love at last.

My thoughts:

This story is an amazing, wonderful story through the lives of Jessie and Lee. Jessie had a crush on Lee, and although the two were friends nothing became of it. Life moves on, and you follow their stories as they continue through their life.

At their 10 years reunion they meet up again, and their feelings are still strong. But can they get through their past to possibly have a future?

This story is in three parts, high school, after high school, and at the reunion. I absolutely adore following their lives through more than 10 years, watching them grow up and change, watching their lives grow and spread into the world.

This was my favorite thing about the book, and I wanted to keep reading their story when the book was over!

About the author

Though Elizabeth McKenna's love of books reaches back to her childhood, she had never read romance novels until one Christmas when her sister gave her the latest bestseller by Nora Roberts. She was hooked from page one (actually, she admits it was the first love scene).

She had always wanted to write fiction, so she combined her love of history, romance and a happy ending to write Cera's Place and Venice in the Moonlight. Her short story, The Gypsy Casts a Spell, is available for free on her website here. She hopes you will enjoy her first contemporary romance novel, First Crush Last Love, as much as others have enjoyed her historical romances.

Elizabeth, aka Maureen Lippert, lives in Wisconsin with her understanding husband, two beautiful daughters, and a sassy Labrador. When she isn't writing, working, or being a mom, she's sleeping.

Lovers at Seaside Book Review and Giveaway

NEW RELEASE........ 

Sweet with Heat: Seaside Summers features a group of fun, flirty, and emotional friends who gather each summer at their Cape Cod cottages. They're sassy, flawed, and so easy to relate to, you'll be begging to enter their circle of friends! All books can be read as stand-alone novels.

In Lovers at SEASIDE… 

After months of long-distance communication, actress Parker Collins and artist Grayson Lacroux finally plan to reconnect in the seaside town of Wellfleet, Massachusetts. But Parker never shows, and weeks pass without a word, leaving Grayson to believe he’s misinterpreted their budding relationship.

Parker has been running on autopilot ever since she lost her friend, mentor, and the only family she’s ever known, Bert Stein. Armed with junk food, tequila, and her big, lovable dog, she’s prepared to hole up and mourn—and determined to mend a fence Bert had never been able to with his estranged and bitter brother. But Parker didn’t count on the handsome artist she’s been fantasizing about for nearly a year walking in on her grief-induced drunken night.

When Grayson stumbles across Parker, he has no idea what to make of the gorgeous blonde who blew him off despite the chemistry between them. But that doesn’t stop him from feeling protective of the woman who’s consumed his thoughts for months, and when he learns of Parker’s plans to confront an angry old man, he refuses to leave her side. As Parker’s past unfolds, they’re led on an unexpected journey of discovery. Their connection deepens, until good intentions spark painful secrets, threatening the love they’ve found.

My thoughts:

Grayson and Parker are total opposites, he's a metal artist and she's a famous actress. Grayson has a strong, loving family and Parker is an orphan who grew up in foster care. Grayson works for Parker's foundation creating beautiful art for their many locations, while Parker does great work for children.

Grayson shows up at the Foundation's house to discover a very different Parker than the woman he's been working with for a year. Parker has lost the man she sees as a father, and without a support system she's spiraling into her grief and loss. Can Grayson help pull her out of the hole that she's in?

Grayson and Parker have been emailing back and forth for a long time, each of them having intimate thoughts about the other. But with their lives being so different, and so far away from each other, can they make a relationship work?

Vigilante Assassin Book Review and Giveaway

Every marriage has a secret, but this one is deadly. Lauren Stephens wakes up to find her husband, Gene, has vanished during the night. His phone is dead. Desperate, she hires Jake Wolfe and his war dog, Cody. They search the house and discover something so disturbing that Jake won’t allow Lauren near it. “No, if you see this, there is no unseeing it.”

Lauren thought she had it all: a loving partner, two great kids, a successful business, and a beautiful home in the San Francisco hills. But all of that is about to come crashing down, due to a missing husband, a hidden past, and a frightening secret that will shock a trusting wife to the core. Gene has enemies, and now they want something from Lauren.

Jake Wolfe is a flawed man who has a habit of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. He wants to leave his secret, violent past behind him, but when Lauren and her children are threatened, his protective instinct takes command. Jake soon finds himself involved in a dangerous conspiracy, targeted for death, and engaged in battle with a powerful, unseen group who will stop at nothing to get what they want.

Jake’s going to have to think fast and fight hard to protect Cody, Lauren and her kids.

Vigilante Assassin is “Jake Wolfe book two” in the ongoing series. It can be read as a stand-alone, or you can start with book one, titled: Dead Lawyers Don’t Lie.

Both of these Kindle Unlimited books in the Jake Wolfe mystery thriller novel series are available to read for free with your subscription to Kindle Unlimited.

My thoughts:

This book grabbed me from the very beginning, with Jake waking up to the challenges of his new life. Very quickly he's convinced to help with a mystery. A husband is missing and a family is spiraling into oblivion. Can Jake keep Lauren and her kids safe, while avoiding the problems that are following him?

Jake has had a crazy past, and his present situation is no joke. Cody is one of the only things that keeps him sane (and alive), and Jake will do everything in his power to keep Cody safe.

This book was riveting, gripping, and kept me questioning friendships, relationships, rivalries and vendettas. I had the hardest time putting it down! While this book can definitely be read alone, you'll want to go back and read the first one, so go ahead and read them in order if you can!

Readers are saying...

Book 1: Dead Lawyers Don't Lie

A mysterious killer who calls himself The Artist is assassinating wealthy lawyers in San Francisco. When war veteran Jake Wolfe accidentally takes his picture during a murder, The Artist adds Jake to his kill list and he becomes a target in a deadly game of cat and mouse that only one of them can survive. How far would you go to protect your loved ones from a killer? Jake wants to leave his top secret, violent past life behind him. But the reluctant, flawed hero can't ignore his duty and his personal moral compass.

This gripping thriller is full of suspense, plot twists and surprises. It features a cast of interesting characters, including several strong-willed women, two wise-cracking San Francisco Police Homicide Inspectors, one highly intelligent dog, and a philosophical killer who shares Jake's admiration for Van Gogh paintings but still plans to kill him anyway. As Jake gets closer to unraveling a merciless conspiracy, his life gets turned upside down and the danger level increases, adding to the growing suspense. This entertaining page-turner starts out as a murder mystery and then shifts gears into a high-speed action thriller that takes you on a roller-coaster ride to the riveting ending. A good read for those who enjoy mysteries, suspense, action and adventure, vigilante justice, unique characters, witty dialogue and a little romance too. Now on sale in over a dozen countries around the world. Be the first among your friends to read it.

Fans of new Kindle Unlimited novels will be happy to know this book is one of the best financial thrillers in kindle unlimited books.

AT Stake Book Review and Giveaway

NEW RELEASE....

A desperate attempt to survive, or the plot of a twisted killer? 

Bombs rip through the Boston Marathon crowd. Just like the last time, hysteria engulfs New England. Alex's injured partner clings to life, and she won't sleep until the culprit is found. Can she push her way on to the task force?

Rumors swirl, but hard evidence is as elusive as an icy glacier. With her FBI team wrapped up in the formal investigation, Alex pulls in her newest confidante. Ozzie and Alex team up to quickly separate fact from fiction. But what seems right could be so very wrong.

A brutal murder and robbery. Where is this hunt taking them? Could it be nothing more than a cover?

Secrets from the past come to light, and that's when all bets are off. You think it's over, but it's not. Not by a long shot. The brains behind this crime aren't from this world, and Alex's family may not be able to escape the carnage.

Can Alex handle losing another family member to a sick, twisted person?

The ties that bind people are impossible to detect…especially those with long-standing vendettas. It's a harrowing race to get to the killer…even as soldiers of death continue to make their mark on the city of Boston.

Will Alex survive the onslaught?

My thoughts: 

Alex and Ozzie have both been through so much, separately and together. Alex is enjoying a rare down day watching her loved ones compete in the Boston Marathon when the world explodes. Alex runs through the aftermath, trying to find the people that she cares about most.

Alex starts investigating, but without the backing of her normal team, can she make headway before more bombs go off? Can they keep both of their families safe while breaking a massive crime ring?

This is an amazing book, gripping, heartfelt and terrifying all in one. It's a can't put it down nail biter, so I suggest not starting it at bedtime!

The Scoop 

By now you're probably aware that the Alex Troutt thrillers, Ivy Nash thrillers, and the Ozzie Novak thrillers are all under the same Redemption Thriller Series umbrella. Why? Because, ultimately, they all connect -- Alex, Ivy, Ozzie. How? That's part of the mystery that I'm slowly unveiling throughout the Redemption Thriller Series.

Through each sub-series, characters from different books appear in the other novels. If it adds suspense, intrigue, or even a good laugh, I've included a cross-over character -- it's a lot more fun that way. Plus -- and here's the real kicker -- the final six novels will bring all of the major characters together -- Alex, Ivy, Ozzie. It will be explosive and gut-wrenching…in a way that will leave you breathless.

About the Author

Amazon #1 Bestselling Author, #2 bestselling author on Barnes and Noble, and a Readers' Favorite Gold Medal winner.

John W. Mefford has been writing his debut novel since he first entered the work force almost thirty years ago, although he never put words on paper until 2009. Once he started writing, however, he couldn't stop. Many readers ask John from where he gets his ideas. Well, he's a veteran of the corporate rat-race, a former journalist, and he's always been an astute observer of human and social behavior. On top of that, he's really good at embellishing.

A member of International Thriller Writers, John writes novels full of electrifying suspense -- the same types of books he has loved to read since before he could shave.

When he’s not writing, he chases his youth on bike or a basketball court, all while making mental notes of people and societies across the land.
