Vicki Peterwald: Rebel by Mike Shepherd
Science Fiction/Space Opera
In the latest Vicki Peterwald spin off from the Kris
Longknife series we see Vicki gathering support against the coming battle with
her stepmother. There is a lot of
action and a really good supporting cast most of which survived this time. A fun space opera series with an ending
that lets fans know that there will be more to come.
Only Beloved ( A Survivor's Club Novel) by Mary Balogh
Historical Romance
George, The Duke of Stanbrook as been an important side
character in the Survivors series.
Now he is the only one who has not found love and an HEA. As he watches the last survivor marry
his thoughts turn to one person.
That starts a series of events that lead to both love and danger. George has been keeping secrets about his late wife and
son. Those secrets bring danger to
Dora, George’s new wife. I really
like how Balogh weaves the required sex into the story. She writes only a few pages but they
are more powerful than the page after page after page in must books today.
This is one of my favorites in the series.
Murder in Morningside Heights (A Gaslight Mystery) by
Victoria Thompson
Historical Mystery
Frank and Sarah are back from Europe and settling into life
as a married couple. Both are just
a little bored so when Abigail Northrup parents hire Frank to look into their daughters
murder both are ready to take on the investigation. There were a lot of red herrings in the case but this was
one time that I knew who the killer was long before Frank and Sarah. I missed the tension between Frank and
Sarah that was there before their marriage. I also missed seeing more of the important side
characters. A good mystery but not
the best in the series. Still I
will be on the pre-order list when the next book makes its appearance.
