The problem with darkness was that it never really went away. You have to endure it, face it, accept it, learn from it and then hopefully, you could move on ~~ Christy Reace, Fearless

Serena Donovan – He was a romance hero come to life. He saw beneath the surface of the slightly geeky, sometime too serious-minded woman. She fell in love with him on that first date.

Sean Donovan – His heart went into overdrive. Serena was everything he’d ever dreamed of having in a life partner. And he had ruined it.

Christy Reece gave us a glimpse of Sean and Serena at the end of “Reckless”, and that Serena was able to track the love of her life. Their story takes off in “Fearless”

A love that starts with a promise of happiness, embarks on a journey of pain, devastating loss and resilience. Christy Reece lets us feel how much is at stake before she takes it away. Sean’s story is one of the most heartbreaking stories that Christy Reece has written, and she writes it with such care and tenderness – I broke into tears!

Sean and Serena both come to the fight with scars, and neither pretends they don’t hurt. But when the past comes roaring back with a vengeance, their fight, courage and sacrifice is nothing short of fearless!

Christy Reece has always been a genius with her villains and Colton Kingsley takes the cake so far. When Colton collides with Serena and Sean is when the extraordinary story of their love, unwavering faith,  and their single and resolute goal to save innocents risking their lives is a testament of their courage and bravery.

And the OZ team breathes and lives that choice. A family of flawed, fiercely loyal people and bound by a shared purpose, they are warriors working to help the innocent, the abused, and the missing. And when one of their own is in trouble, all bets are off and the whole team shows up, including the resources lurking in the dark.

The long waited story of Serena and Sean is indeed a story of “Fearless” warriors and the missing pieces of the puzzle seem to be slowly falling into place. Another brilliant story from Christy Reece and her OZ warriors!

A new series, new characters, with a glimpse of the olden and golden characters making a welcome appearance. 

Katie Reus’s new series, “Redemption Harbor Security” continues with Constantine in the crosshairs of love “Fighting For Reece”. Both have a past with fears and insecurities to deal with and going undercover as a couple at a spa retreat sets the stage to get past those fears, if they can survive the death around them. 

I like these new characters in her new series. Loyal, faithful and devoted to each other, I’d love to see the rest of the siblings finding their true love. Katie Reus is a pro with her narration and plots and reading her stories is always a balm to my heart. I enjoy them to the fullest!

Gifted an ebook for an honest review from NetGalley.

A night of fun with her best friends becomes the last night for the unsuspecting sixteen year old Jenna. A random death that leaves her parents with a grief, unsaid and unexplained. But for Lieutenant Eve Dallas, death is personal, always. The why of the murder is what fascinates Eve more than the how. The why is what feeds her intelligent and experienced mind the start to an investigation, to bring justice to the victims.

With her tenacious and insightful mind, murder board, Peabody, Roarke and her team of passionate law enforcement always at her back, Eve Dallas will go to any lengths to bring down the psychopath consumed with hatred and fixated on killing young people. 

But, what I love the most about J. D. Robb and her Death series is the growth of Eve’s and Roarke’s relationship. From the time they met, to getting married, to falling into a wife and husband status, both have matured and nurtured each other, family lost, as well as an extended family. These glimpses that J. D. Robb gives importance to in her narrations and pages, makes my heart full.

Writing the Death series as J. D. Robb, Nora Roberts is always topnotch with narration, plot and incorporating intense research. Be it suspense, paranormal, romance or law enforcement, she is unsurpassable!

A new series, new characters, with a glimpse fo the olden and golden characters making a welcome appearance. 

Katie Reus’s new series, Redemption Harbor Security” spears ahead with Jessie Lenox “Fighting For Haley”, to keep her in his life.

I like these new characters in her new series. Loyal, faithful and devoted to each other, I’d love to see the rest of the siblings finding their true love.

“Love sometimes makes people ruthless in a way that not even hatred can.” ~~ Francesca Marciano, Actress ~~

Gideon Wright – “You wanted to protect the defenseless, Eve. I wanted to be the one to protect the defender.”

Eve Wells – “Thanks for not giving up on me. But if you ever again drug me, kidnap me, or inject something into my body without my consent, I will cause you severe, physical pain.”

That readers, are Gideon and Eve for you! Partners, lovers, soul mates and defenders of the innocent, courageous and honorable.

Christy Reece is “ruthless” in creating her characters with her heart and soul!

A chance encounter between two innocent human beings from different ends of the world, merciless events cement the trajectory of these young lives, yet fated to be in each other’s lives and destined to be together with a future, Eve and Gideon had each other’s backs as Option Zero operatives and friends. Between the lines, their chemistry sizzles, thoughts and actions bring to life their emotions and feelings,  script and narrative is an admirable and resplendent passage to their future.

Merciless in battling betrayal, relentless in fighting for their beliefs, bringing the heartless to justice, ruthless in serving the purpose of their goals and objectives – Option Zero operatives are one of a kind and unforgettable characters….thank you, Christy Reece, for these champions.

Be it heroes or villains, sidekicks or followers, family or relatives,  Christy Reece pours her prowess and mastery in developing each character fit for their respective roles in her books.  Her imagination and vision in creating evil for her stories is ruthless to the point of brilliant, as is her penchant for throwing in a twist or two in the penultimate chapters. 

I am not surprised that Iris Gates is in the shadows getting in on the action and I wait with bated breath, for Sean to slay his demons and come back to Serena.
