The Wrong Victim by Allison Brennan

 



I was excited to get to read The Wrong Victim by Allison Brennan. The third in her Quinn and Costa series, every book makes me feel like I get to know these characters even more. The level of detail in the crime and story creates an intense setting throughout that never lets up. I felt like I was reading an episode of CSI! I really liked how their was a romance but it never overtook the story and it was not the main focus.  If you’re looking for a suspenseful series, this definitely fits that bill. Thank you to Harlequin and Mira for having me on this blog tour! 


Synopsis: A bomb explodes on a sunset charter cruise out of Friday Harbor at the height of tourist season and kills everyone on board. Now this fishing and boating community is in shock and asking who would commit such a heinous crime—the largest act of mass murder in the history of the San Juan Islands.

Was the explosion an act of domestic terrorism, or was one of the dead the primary target? That is the first question Special Agent Matt Costa, Detective Kara Quinn and the rest of the FBI team need to answer, but they have few clues and no witnesses.

Accused of putting profits before people after leaking fuel endangered an environmentally sensitive preserve, the West End Charter company may itself have been the target. As Matt and his team get closer to answers, they find one of their own caught in the crosshairs of a determined killer.

I Love When You Lie- Kristen Bird

  I Love it When You Lie by Kristen Bird is a Southern mystery where a family will do anything to protect each other. I loved how complicated these women were. They each had their own issues and getting to see their inner thoughts as they dealt with them was fascinating. There was no black and white here, rather many instances of gray. I enjoyed the writing and how humor was interspersed throughout. I wouldn’t call this a mystery, as much as women’s fiction.

Berkley Rom-Coms

  A romance novel with action? This is a sub-genre I had no idea I would enjoy as much as I did. Raiders of the Lost Heart plays on the big adventure movies and does it in a way that the entire story feels fresh. Enemies to lovers is another trope that plays out. Corrie and Ford have great chemistry and their rivalry sets the tone for how hard they fall. This was a really enjoyable read.  Housebroke by Jaci Burton pairs a millionaire and a woman just trying to get by. Dogs are heavily featured in this so if that’s not something you are interested in, keep that in mind. This was a fast read, one that needs a bit of suspension of disbelief. Linc was a great character and he matched well with Hazel.
