Now on to my thoughts

First off I  want to say a  huge  thank you to the publisher Love Inspired-HARLEQUIN - Romance (U.S. & Canada), the author Deb Kastner, and to NetGalley for inviting me to join the blog tour for this book as well as letting me read and review it.This is my first book by this author and I can see why a lot of people love her stories. With this one it was how the each of the characters was strong in their own way and it showed though out the story. How the author bright to life the use and need of service dogs,as well as how she bright up the fact that there was people out there who wanted to help our soldiers. As for the story its self it was the type of story that you might see as a Hallmark movie where they offer fun, humor, drama, and romance and show the characters learning and growing, and that what The Marine's Mission did.

The Marine's Mission by Deb Kastner is available on June 29.

If Shadows Could Tell

 Welcome to my review of If Shadows Could Tell 

Title: If Shadows Could Talk

Author: Granthana Sinha

Genre: thriller

Pages: 283

Rating : 4

Would I recommend it? Yes

Would I read more by this author> Yes

First off a big thank you to the author for inviting me to read and review her book.Normal I don't accept books for the author themselves but this one was in the genre that I actually do read which is thriller and I'm so glad that I said yes. This book had every thing I love about thrillers : lots of tension and danger mounting, non stop from the very start, secrets, lies, and you have no idea who to trust or what is going to happen next.Its the type of book that you can just set down and read and not want to stop until the very last page. 

When Janet Clay's body is found in a local gym pool, every authority dismisses it as just another case of drug-overdose.
Ridden by the guilt of not being able to save the young journalist while she still had a chance ― Aurora Steller visits the memorial service ― only to end up suspecting that things aren't as simple as they appear. Her determination to find out the truth, only draws her further into an intricate web of greed and deceit ― where some will stop at nothing to protect their well-crafted masks.
With several events unfolding around her, it becomes terrifyingly clear that more lives might have been lost already. Suddenly, her beautiful, sleepy little town seems to be harvesting some sinister secrets; every fact seems tainted with lies; everyone she loves is in mortal danger.
With no evidence, no witness and very few allies, Aurora must risk everything, including her own life, to uncover the truth and bring justice to the numerous shattered lives, before it's too late...

Now on to my thoughts 

First off a huge thank you to the publisher Bookouture , the author D.K.Hood as well as to NetGalley for the invite to join the blog tour as well as letting me read and review it and for letting me continuing on with one of my all time favorite series. This is a series I will never get tried of reading, and just like the others I got lost in it, loved how it was even more twisted then the last one was and I got to see more of my all time favorite characters, and revisit my favorite town plus other thing about this series I love is I can read it out of order which I tend to do sometimes with series. As for the plot of the story its will written  and is non stop from the start, and ever turn of the page has you on the edge of your set as well as trying to guess who is the killer or killers. As will as like I said its even more twisted then the others , it'll give you goosebumps and send shivers down your spin, like it did me, and I was reading doing a thunder storm which is the perfect time in my opinion to read a thriller.

About the Book: 

She wakes to the sound of footsteps outside her secluded home. Moving toward the window, she scans the dark woods around her and freezes. A tall figure in a long dark coat holds a crossbow pointed right at her. She blinks as lightning cracks overhead. But when she opens her eyes, the figure has vanished…

When the body of a man is found in the dense forest surrounding Black Rock Falls, Sheriff Jenna Alton immediately sees disturbing similarities with a past case—the same murder weapon, the remote beauty spot, and the way the victim is perched against a tree with no sign of a struggle. But the killer in that case was jailed for life.

Jenna suspects a copycat killer and her fears are confirmed when, during the town’s Halloween festival, the bodies of two tourists are found further down the remote trail. They too had been hunted down and murdered in another picturesque spot and all Jenna can hope is that the man behind bars can help her catch the twisted monster behind these new deaths.

As she comes face to face with the vicious murderer who has haunted her dreams for years, she is sure he knows more than he’s telling her. Looking deep into Jenna’s eyes, as if they’re two old friends catching up, he promises to take his final revenge on her for locking him up. But before she can learn more, he is dragged away by prison guards.

When a sudden emergency call takes Jenna and her deputy David Kane deep into the woods, Jenna senses something is very wrong about the situation. As a strange calmness falls over the forest, a familiar face emerges from the shadows. Will this killer be the one who finally takes down Sheriff Alton, and can they make it out of the forest alive?

If you love heart-racing crime books by authors like Lisa Regan, Melinda Leigh and Kendra Elliot, you will love this exciting thriller from USA Today bestselling author D.K. Hood.

**Each Kane and Alton book can be read as part of the series or as a standalone**

Now on to my thoughts:

Caribbean island , Dolphins,legendary mythical beast of Caribbean folklore. A bit of romance,

as well as nail bitten suspense, after you read this you may never want to back in the water again.  Plus if you like Jaws and Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park then you might want to give this one a try and see for yourself .

On a tropical island, a sea dragon strikes terror. Marine Biologist Eva Paz is a survivor. Growing up in rural poverty, she loses her family after her brother dies in cartel crossfire. Mistrustful of others and more comfortable around animals, Eva throws herself into her work. When a sea dragon attacks her lead dolphin, Taffy, it threatens Eva's dreams of cracking the dolphin communication code.

A man from Eva's tragic past arrives on the island to lead a dive school; Geneticist Thomas Sternberg's sabbatical soon turns into a nightmare when the sea dragon assaults one of his divers. Eva doesn't trust him. On his watch as a former Navy SEAL, others died, and an injury left Taffy terribly scarred.

Drug lord Ignacio makes Eva an offer she can't refuse. He'll fund her research if she'll help him catch the sea dragon. She needs the money. She lost her grant. Her dolphins could be turned loose in the Caribbean with that dragon. There's a catch. Ignacio would capture and control the sea dragon at any cost.

To stop the dragon, Eva must decide if she should ally with Thomas or Ignacio. Or she could go after the dangerous dragon alone.

Can a haunted scientist slay the dragon in time to save her dolphins?

Now On to my thoughts

First off  like always I  want to say a  huge  thank you to the publisher  Avon Books UK, the author Helen Fields  , and to NetGalley for letting me read and request it, because of them it seems like I've now found a new author to read . And man am I glad that I did request because its the perfect story to read on a stormy day like I did, with the thunder and rain coming down and just me and my dogs alone at home , all the time reading this one my kindle , even when the power kept going on and off I didn't want to stop. In fact I post to some of my bookish group chats that I was loving it and a few even replayed back saying they was added it to their TBRs. As for the story it was told in away that made it seem even darker and creeper and it flood perfectly together. It had all the elements that I love in a thriller which is : dark and twisted , creepy, a twisted serial killer, as well as a compelling story line that pulls you in from the very start and won't let go to the every end. And even though this is my first book by this author I can see why others like her work because after reading just this one books of hers I want to check out others and see if their just as good . 

The brand new crime thriller from the bestselling author of the Perfect series – Helen Fields is back with her first stand-alone novel!

He collects his victims. But he doesn’t keep them safe.

Elspeth, Meggy and Xavier are locked in a flat. They don’t know where they are, and they don’t know why they’re there. They only know that the shadow man has taken them, and he won’t let them go.

 

Desperate to escape, the three of them must find a way out of their living hell, even if it means uncovering a very dark truth.

 

Because the shadow man isn’t a nightmare. He’s all too real.

 

And he’s watching.

 

Helen Fields is back with a heart-pounding new book, perfect for fans of Cara Hunter and Stuart MacBride.
