Having My Baby by Theresa Ragan is an entertaining read. Ms Ragan has delivered a well-written book and loaded it with awesome, lovable characters. Derrick and Jill's story is loaded with drama, humor and spice. I enjoyed reading Having My Baby and look forward to reading more from Theresa Ragan in the future. Having My Baby is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.

Faith was a 4th grade teacher with 2 children Hunter 9 and Lara 10 .She also had yet to share with her husband Craig she was pregnant for their 3rd child. Then she had dropped the kids at home Craig's car was there and went to the store, she came home to a home invasion. Before she knew it she was bound and on the floor with her husband. She had to watch the men cut her husband's throat and watch her die and they were in a hurry with her and did a sloppy job and she survived but the men took her kids. Her sister Jana was pregnant also but Faith had lost her unborn child and the men had taken her children. Faith was letting herself fade away then one day she woke up furious and knew she had to get up and get active her kids needed her to find them.

The story was really good and kept you right with it even though it was harrowing. It did drag a little but that really wasn’t a problem the problem I had with this story was it had a large cliff hanger at the end and I hate those. That is why this is a 3 instead of a 4 . I was very disappointed.

I received an ARC of this story for an honest review.

Furious (Faith McMann)

Between The Bookends

4.5 Stars

WOW was this book good.

"Faith McMann comes home to a nightmare: her husband is killed and her son and daughter are taken. Although the intruders leave her for dead, she survives."

The first in a new series (Faith McMann Series) this book was a heartbreaker, disturbing, and kick ass. I loved Faith and her family. The way they all stood with her and helped. I ADORED Beast and Rage. Everything about this book was just awesome from beginning to end.

The only thing I wasn't crazy about was this ended in a cliffhanger of sorts. I wanted some sort of resolution, but I can see why it was left the way it was. I haven't read anything from this author before, but I will for sure be checking out more of this author's work.

My Rating: 4 Stars

A special thank you to Thomas & Mercer and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

T.R. Ragan returns with her new series following her Lizzy Gardner series, with a kick ass heroine, leaving readers glued to the pages, with some highly charged topics for a suspense crime thriller.

FURIOUS by T.R. Ragan dedicates her new Faith McMann series to the heroes and people who work tirelessly to raise awareness and increase understanding—supplying services and help survivors of human trafficking.

A violation of human rights. Those most affected are children who come from places of instability, abuse, and homelessness, making them easy targets for gangs and traffickers, often forced or manipulated into street prostitution. they are trapped in an endless cycle of poverty and exploitation.

Faith McMann is a fourth-grade teacher in the quiet suburbs of Sacramento. An unspeakable crime. Faith is pregnant. She arrives home to a nightmare. Her husband, Craig is on the floor, bound and gagged. Lara and Hudson are covered in duck tape. Time stops. She has to figure out what to do. Grab a knife or run to get help. Two men. She turned and ran. They want to know where it is. Where what is? This cannot be happening. They grab her.

They murder her husband before her eyes, and kidnap her children. She is suffocating on her own blood. Leaving her for dead, she survives, barely. After being brought out of a drug induced coma, the heartache was numbing. Craig was gone forever and her kids were missing.

The misery and despair touched her very core: blinding, deafening, debilitating. Grief. Slowly she decides her children need her. She is angry and she wants vengeance. She will fight.

She remembered a tattoo on the guy’s neck. In her fight, she uncovers the under belly of human trafficking. A mother who will stop at nothing to try and save her children, when the cops are not doing their best.

Wow, what a perfect name for Faith. Furious, Fearless, and Smart. With highly charged topics, the author takes us on an intense journey to the dark side, of human trafficking, a form of modern-day slavery.

Some edgy and great characters ---A fan of the Lizzy Gardner series (have read them all)-- Faith McCann is an exciting new series with a suspenseful cliffhanger, leaving readers anxiously awaiting the next in the series!

Fans of Karin Slaughter and Chris Bohjalian's The Guest Room will enjoy.

#FURIOUS AVAILABLE 3/22/16 @TheresaRagan #THOMASMERCER Wow, this was one kick butte book. This mother was not letting anyone keep her away from her children. I loved it and her. The police thought she was crazy, I thought "you go girl". This was one action packed book with one huge let down. It's a cliffhanger. Ugh!!!

That's okay. I enjoyed reading this one so much, I will be glad to wait and see what happens in the next one. Because even though I'm not crazy about cliffhangers, this mom is so crazy, it will be interesting to see what she does in the next book. She got mad at the detective in this one and hit him over the head with his keyboard because he didn't remember her daughter's name. That's just part of the craziness that goes on in this book. I definitely recommend it! I was thoroughly entertained while reading this. I think I may have even sad up a few times and air fist pumped. Okay, yeah I did.

Thanks Thomas and Mercer for approving my request and to Net Galley for providing me with a free e-galley in exchange for an honest review.
