Kierce: A Badari Warriors SciFi Romance Novel by Veronica Scott
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Best thing after the two main characters - the hints about new characters and where the story arc will go in the future. Kierce is a new bread of Badari and he has to come to terms with what he can do. Elianna McNamee is a new character who is put into Kierce's cell. After the two are rescued Elianna's skills are vital to getting help from the Sector. This adds new and interesting characters while moving the plot forward. I loved Kierce and would love to have someone like him around.
Secrets Never Die by Melinda Leigh
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Once again Cris Dukehart (Goodreads Author) (Narrator) does a great job. I love Morgan and Lance and look forward to their next adventure. As always danger stalks the story line as Morgan and Lance work to find a teenager and to prove he is innocent. There are some interesting new characters and a new possibility of a romance for Sharp. Another thrilling adventure that kept me listening.

Hidden by Rebecca Zanetti
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This caught me from the first few pages. I loved Pippa and how her curosity kept her watching her new neighbor. As for that neighbor, Malcolm West had secrets of his own. It was fun watching the two get to know each other as they worked to build trust. Turns out neither were who they said. That lead to a interesting story line with a lot of danger, tension and of course romance. This is first in a series and I am looking forward to the next Deep Ops characters to get hit with romance mixed with danger.
I received a free copy of the book in return for an honest review.
What I've Done by Melinda Leigh
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Morgan Dane has a new client. Haley Powell does not know what happened; just that she woke up covered in blood and the man she went home with is dead. This leads to a thrill a minute case when Morgan, Haley, Sharp and Lance all are put in danger of their lives. This series gets better with each new book. Cris Dukehart is the voice of What I've Done and she does a great job in bringing the story to life. I loved the ending but no spoiler here. Listen to find out.

Her Last Goodbye by Melinda Leigh
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I really enjoy Chris Dukehar's performance. I have listened to several books she has narrated and like her style in all. Morgan and Lance continue to take dangerous and interesting cases. This one had several surprises as they tried to first find a kidnapped woman and then find the man responsible. This had a plot that build keeping interest up, characters that fit the story line and a surprise romance.
The Caledonian Gambit by Dan Moren
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Eli Brody does not fit anywhere. After all everyone thinks he is dead. That is the start to a thrill a minute space opera with some science mixed in. Eli is tasked to find who and what is being developed and used as a weapon and stop its use. He has to deal with family, spies, old gang members, and not knowing who to trust. This is a fun read with a very well developed plot, fully fleshed out characters, and good world building. This ended with the mystery solved but there could be a interesting follow up. So far I have not seen any indication that one is in the works.

Say You're Sorry by Melinda Leigh
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
A interesting mystery with some very well developed characters. One girl is missing and one has been murdered. Are the two related? A nice mystery with enough red herrings to keep the plot going. I did think that there were two many points of views and they slowed the story down at times. Other than that it was a five star not four. Morgan is a very strong female character who is getting over the loss of her husband. Ready to go back to work she chooses to defend her neighbor and try to find who really killed Tessa. Lance has issues but now has choices to make. Like Morgan he chooses to find the killer closing a door he had hoped would stay open. The story sets up future books featuring the two. A very good start to a series.
Dangerous Minds by Janet Evanovich
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Buddhist monk Wayan Bagus has lost his island so of course he comes to his friend Emerson Knight for help. That starts a fun rump with Emerson, Riley Moon and Emerson's childhood friend Vernon. The plot is outrageous, the dialog snarky, and the danger more fun that serious. Of course there is the chance of destroying the Earth. This is a great group of main characters aided by some equally good secondary characters. A fun series that does not take anything seriously. I listened to the audio book and the reader had everything down pat making the story even more fun. I had a lot of laughs out loud moments.
