Kenzie Macallan, a new writer and a new read on my list. Heading into her Deep 8 series way down the list to her fourth book “Risk”, with Campbell Creighton laying down his life for his Quinn Donovan

With AI being the hot topic of the current world, Kenzie weaves an intriguing story around this very concept, and if we are talking about AI, then politics, conspiracies, power, money and betrayal are not far behind. With technology outspacing humans, it’s a power struggle for survival of the fastest and the richest!

Genius brother and sister duo, Liam and Quin are working on an AI nuclear weapon in a top secret location that is compromised. With her brother MIA, Quinn reaches out to her trusted friend and security specialist, Campbell for help before being kidnapped. The burden of rescue now falls on Cam and his team of special operatives, to thwart whatever the political and power plan was set in operation. And Cam will need his head in the game, if he wants to protect his heart and life, Quinn to bring her back safely.

A fairly new Indie writer in my opinion, “Risk” starts off a bit slow but gets going as we get into the fifth chapter and onwards. But Kenzie Macallan has the imagination and the forte to narrate a story with a genuine plot, keeping the flow of the story interesting and making sure the chemistry among the characters is strong enough to carry the storyline. 

Kenzie Macallan is an author to look out for and she’s caught enough of my attention to add her to my list. 

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

It’s always a pleasure reading Katie Reus and if that story is an extension of Red Stone Security, even better for her ardent readers. “Protecting Rebel” features billionaire Weston and his childhood friend and musical start Rebel, as they come face to face after a long time. Yes, they kept in touch as they went their separate ways, but always had a connection with each other, and Weston’s aunt as the common denominator. But never confessed their feelings for each other.

Weston’s aunt funeral and a threat to Rebel, keep them in each other’s paths. Weston will move heaven and earth to keep Rebel safe, and Rebel is ready to come home to where her heart really is. 

And it always is a pleasure when you hear mentions of the founders of Red Stone Security and come across agents that make appearances in various stories.

Book 21 of the Red Stone Security series is another HEA and feel good story. 

Received an ARC from KR Press, LLC via NetGalley for an honest review.

“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.

“Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.” ~ George Bernard Shaw ~ 

Planting roots and making a life for herself, is Morgan Albright’s desire. With a house to her name, two satisfying jobs, friends and family as her support, Morgan is cruising life and enjoying finding herself in the process. A chance encounter with a stranger whom she likes, a normal occurrence of a relationship that she hopes may lead to something more, actually transcends to extremely tragic circumstances. Morgan not only loses her best friend, but also her life as she is stripped off of her life, her goals and her identity.

Identity theft is such a common and devastating occurrence in our current world, and reinventing yourself is no mean task. With the help of her mother and her grandmother, Morgan realizes what happened to her is not what she is, but what she chooses to become now, will be her identity. Creating a new life, takes immense courage and strength and Morgan has that in spades. 

“Identity” is a psychological thriller, following Morgan’s struggle to create a new life, staying one step ahead of a pathological killer, having faith to trust and embrace love. Roping in Miles Jameson to support Morgan with her struggle, sparking honesty and love, binding her with relationships, giving her the confidence to believe in planting roots again, is testament of the fact that there are good and kind people in this world.

Any story by Nora Roberts is always topnotch with narration, plot and incorporating intense research. Peppered with witty dialogues, springing a love story amidst danger, developing relationships and giving characters a chance to create themselves, “Identity” is an extraordinary story
