I received this advance copy from Goddess Fish Promotions and Pink House Press for a honest review! 

AND the story to continues for the saga of Shutter Lake in the Breakdown Series.

I’m hooked and intrigued as this book flows from the previous author which goes so smoothly I almost forgot they were all different authors! That is some amazing work and I am quite impressed in these ladies for that.. Plus I am bamboozled, I don’t know who the killer is which just has me absorbing everything into this book and the desire to know the secrets which Dana has been hiding from EVERYONE. Such a great series, very cool how each author focuses on one chapter. Strong, bright women! Love it especially seeing this book from Dana's point of view.

There are still LOTS of questions and new leads with more answers left without a answer. The ending crept up on me and was not as shocking as the first book but was wonderful. I love the first 2 books so far and looking forward to reading the 3rd! The characters are so complex and the level of depth into the overall stories are wonderful.

Again this book flowed from the last like slicing into butter. It was so good! I really im impressed at how well these authors write together and appeal to readers for each author along with mystery/suspense/thriller readers!

• Double Vision by Vicki Hinze is amazing!

I absolutely loved this story and cannot wait to read more books from this series. Hopefully I can get my hands on them.

Explosives expert Captain Katherine Kane discovered hostages in an underwater cave and time was running out for them. The person who summoned her to her top secret location has vanished leaving no clues as to what happened to him or where he might be. The terrorist holding the hostages is none other than Thomas Kunz - a diabolical mastermind - behind replacing United States government agents with look-alikes. There was one problem with that - they thought they had him locked up in Fort Leavenworth, turns out the man they had in prison was a look-alike. Katherine needs to ask Major Nathan Forester's help. Will she regret this move as Nathan begins following her every movement. With time running out will Katherine and Nathan save the thousands of peoples lives riding on them and maybe even find love in each others arms.

You will have to read the book to find out more...

I received this and its two sequels from Netgalley, for which I thank them. Not my usual fare, but for me good writing trumps genre – I've been pleasantly surprised enough times to almost balance out the unpleasant surprises. This sounded like a light, quick, enjoyable read. It sounded like a sweet, gentle romance with a sense of humor and a bit of a paranormal flavor. And that's what it was: it was sweet, it achieved funny here and there, it was comparatively gentle (which in my library usually means no explicit sex – in this case there was some), and there was a hint of otherworldliness – magic, even, particularly in the first half.

That's the good news.

For me, though, the sweetness, fun and engaging in the first half of the story, became a bit cloying by the time the couple in question got their act together. The endearments, the "does he love me" "does she love me" "do I love him/her" "should I tell him", all started to stale pretty quickly.
