Notorious

Notorious is a redemptive tale that has all the classic elements of everything the makes Tamera Leigh books my top pick in all things medieval romance.  In this book you see a Via nna who has been present in earlier books, but we don't understand why she is in the position she is. She is an enigma.  Leigh masterfully let's us experience the perspective of heroine in a way that doesn't whitewash her path but doesn't overdo it either. It is a perfect balance of grace and the harsh reality of a woman in a dangerous situation.  And then enter a hero who has misconceptions about her character and loyalties. Forced proximity. Let me tell you it is a recipe for another epic romance that may be one of my favorite in the series.  It has elements that remind me of a tale similar to Rahab from the book of Joshua yet set in a medieval time period.  There are so many layers and such depth to both main characters that I was utterly captivated by their story and cheering them on as th

Havoc

Ronie Kendig's characters don't merely walk onto the page they stride in and in two seconds flat they own the room. . That is definitely true of the characters in Havoc. This book is fantastic. The perfect read for someone who wants action, fast paced intrigue, MWD's, deep characters, romantic tension that practically crackles, yes I could go on. . I I was instantly drawn in by Crew, his backstory, loyalty and resilience was something that felt so real and authentic. He had struggles to be sure, but also such a confidence that totally made me adore his character. Havoc is definitely a scene stealer. I love dogs and have such respect for these high octane, four legged operators. I loved how Ronie Kendig showed the devotion and bond between dog and human. Having that element in some of the action scenes had me truly holding my breath! Bravo. Vienna was so well written. I enjoyed the banter and the chemestry between her and Crew so much. The perfect balance for a well written

Creed

An ending to the series that brings the action, the romance, and the hope that has been a trademark of this series.  I loved this installment and the climax of this family's story that is so full of heart and characters that move you, and make you feel as if you are living through their journey right along with them .  I loved how we got to see Creed overcome so much through this saga and I hope to see more of him in the future.  I really loved that we got more time with Fraser and Pippa as well. I think they may be my favorite couple in the series.   An interwoven message of hope, family and faith that kept me up late to see what would happen next.  Such a satisfying ending with a glimpse into possibly more to come.  It didn't disappoint and was a pleasure to read this series as it came out this year. I recieved a complementary copy of this book from the publisher, all thoughts and opinions are honest and completely my own.
