Short and Sweet Book Reviews # 139 - Champion by Anna Hackett, Rough Rider by B.J. Daniels, On Her Majesty's Frightfully Secret Service by Rhys Bowen

Champion by Anna Hackett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Blaine Strong has been the iffiest of the humans captured and sold into slavery. He has been drugged and made to fight to the death before being rescued. Now he has to try to come to terms with what and who he is now and for that he needs help. Saff Essikani is the one to provide it but not without a lot of danger, tension and new problems for the Galactic Gladiators. The world building and back story was done in the previous novellas but there is some tucked into the story line if you missed the first stories. This one brings Blaine and Saff together in a rescue operation, sets the stage for the next story in the series and is a satisfying read with a nice romance for our two main characters.


Rough Rider by B.J. Daniels
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Boone McGraw and C.J. Knight are on a collision course and don't know it. Both are looking for answers; C.J. to the murder of her partner and Boone hoping to find his sister kidnapped twenty-five years ago. It takes some time but their two investigations come together into one as C.J. learns about secrets her partner kept from her and someone from the past tries to kill both Boone and C.J. A nice ending to the series but there are still characters who need their story. This was a three book series but I hope that we set to see the twins get a HEA like their older brothers.

On Her Majesty's Frightfully Secret Service by Rhys Bowen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Georgie finds herself with a locked room mystery when she goes to a house party at the request of the Queen. Once again Darcy shows up unexpectedly to provide back up but Georgie is the one to save the day. Their wedding seems to be getting closer while someone sets off to try and stop another wedding from taking place. I love Georgie and Darcy but am hoping they will someday tie the knot. I guess I will just have to wait and see what happens in the next book. This was a very nice mystery even though it was apparent to me if not to Georgie who the villain was.
