It Will Always Be Us

It Will Always Be Us

by Theresa Sederholt

Very few can tell a story like this author grabbing your attention from the first page until the end. You find a little bit of everything from mystery, intrigue, a little romance, action, suspense and so much more. I love how the author brings it all together in a very intense read that pulls you in leaving you on the edge waiting to see what happens next. I love this series each story is better than the last I can’t wait for the next one.

The characters are very likable, the plot is great with wonderful twists and turns that keep you guessing as you piece the plot together. I loved the suspense and mystery, the unknown and the danger as well as the drama, complex characters and the thrill it gave me why holding me spellbound. It is a story of betrayal from the one you loved and trusted the most, what would you do if things as you know them are not true and puts you in danger. Bailey is about to find out which leave her world turn upside down and the life as she knew it spinning out of control. I loved the surprises as this author twists her way right into my heart. It is well written and makes you really think and look at your own life and those you love. Do you really know your love ones as much as you think you do, could they be hiding things? It really was a thrilling exciting read that I couldn’t put down.

What a very touching story that really grabs you making you want to go into the story and pull her out. Domestic abuse is never easy but when one's husband is a cop it makes it even worse. With nowhere to turn Trinity took what she got until the day he went too far and his brothers in the department took him down when they walked in and just about found her dead with him over her. One young cop took it all in helped her until they took her way, he never forgot her and always wondered about her. Years pass she is doing a seminar, that young cop isn’t young anymore, he is watching as she does an unbelievable amazing demonstration that is mind-blowing. He is as blown away by her strength as he was years ago. This is a story about strength, overcoming your pass, moving on, starting over and helping others like you. It is such a touching romance that you feel all the way to your toes. I promise when the end comes you will feel each emotion that Trinity does along with the power of healing and love like you have never seen it. Oh things aren’t all cheery a lot goes on here in a little time that pulls you in as you become part of the book.

I have not had the pleasure of listening to anything this narrator has done before. She really pulled me in from the first page taking me away leaving me in awe at what the author had written. There is so much emotion in her voice it is hard not to feel everything that the character is feeling. Both her male and female character voices are outstanding as well as her very pleasant normal voice. I could hear the pain, sorrow, laughter and happiness as well as the uneasiness and how unsure the character was in her voice. She gives just the right about of pause and goes that extra mile that really makes you feel and believe what she is saying. I just could not put it down, I am not one to just set and listen to an audio I do things around the house, shop, listen in the car but I found myself setting in the car once I got home for a few extra minutes, even in the house I just set and listen. The author gives a powerful story and the narrator had no trouble delivering it. There are no background noise, no repeating of words, no volume changes, I could not tell when breaks were taken. It is just a wonderful audio that is clean, clear and takes you away you forget you are listening. I am very much looking forward to listening to more of this narrators work. There is no doubt she will become one of my favorite.

All I can say is wow just wow this is a powerful story. I was blown away by the seminar that was so powerful the way the author wrote it making you feel the emotions as a victim would. She is one very talented author that knows how to pull you in taking you away and making you become part of the story. This would make a great movie I really can’t tell you how much this audio touched me. It will make anyone who has never been abused understand why the victim can’t walk away how painful it is and the way some people enjoy power and take it too far. For anyone who has been a victim this is one author that is telling your story in a way that I do not think it would trigger anything. For me it was very easy to relate to and understand, I cannot tell you the emotions I felt why listening to this. Oh it isn’t all dome and gloom, there is a very touching romance that just makes you feel at peace when the end come. It is about learning, growing and not taking what one dishes out but also about what love truly is, the give and take, support that only true love brings. It is a delightful older woman younger man romance that is touching. There is a little mystery, a few twists and turns that gets the heart pumping and leaves you on the edge. The suspense was outstanding as the author had me talking to the characters which I totally loved. I loved the characters, there wasn’t anything I didn’t love about this audio was hooked from the start to finish. I understood where each character was coming from and felt every emotion they felt. It was truly an amazing listen that pulls you in from start to finish. There was nothing I didn’t like and really wanted the story to go on. To the author you have out done yourself giving an amazing story that really touched me. It will be an audio that I will listen to again, my hats off to you for giving such a powerful story.

Chance Collision

Chance Collision (Crossing Forces #2)

by C.A. Szarek

There is never a dull moment in this fast pace story filled with suspense, action, adventure, criminals, family and romance. This is the first book I have read by this author it is very interesting with a well blend plot. It was a thrilling and exciting read that at times had me on the edge of my seat, a few smiles and even a laugh or two, there is sadness, danger.

Peter is an interesting character but it took me a while to warm up to him with his wishy-washy ways, first hot and then cold plus he didn’t always tell the truth. Yes I understand him not wanting to get into a relationship due to his past but why not just be up front about it. Pete has always been attracted to Nikki but it is hands off since she is the asst. to the chief, but he just can’t seem to follow those orders. Nikki I liked she is strong, dependable and loving. She as well has been attracted to Peter for a while, but with his on and off again ways she should have just told Peter where to go. The only issue I had with her was she couldn’t walk away and kept jumping in bed with him. The chemistry between Pete and Nikki s very hot and steamy and emotional. I have very mixed emotions on these two.

Beside that I thought the story was great, loved the plot, the suspense and the action. There is always something going on that holds your attention. The story starts off with a shooting that is anything but random. Nikki is a witness and needs protection. Peter had to find the killer and protect Nikki at the same time. Talk about pushing the lines' heck he can’t even find the line where Nikki comes in. The story does leave some unanswered question which may come out in the next book. It will be interesting to see where the author will take this series. I have not read Andi and Cole story but I feel I might have to. I really liked how Andi stood up to Peter and let him have if for the way he treated Nikki. Bottom line the plot has a few issues in the romance but the rest of it makes it worth reading.

Summary

Thrown together, their attraction sizzles, even though she’s squarely in the no-fly zone. She makes him break every rule in his little black book.

Nikki Harper has been attracted to Pete since they met two years ago. Witnessing a brutal shooting throws her into a stigma that’s always been her greatest fear—a victim. She has no choice but to accept his protective custody and let him help save her and her beloved grandmother.
Can Pete protect his witness and solve the case, while fighting the intense heat with Nikki?.

Sparks of Deception

Sparks of Deception (Shattered Lives #4)

by Barb Shuler

This is another great read in the Shattered series, we have watched these two grow up going through so much and finally when they find their own and try to start a life together things take a tailspin leaving them in danger that could lead to death.  The author touches on a topic that is dear to our heart, it is so much in the news, in our schools, in our lives. It is never easy to live in a world that is all about me, me, me, filled with hate, getting even, trying to be on the top with friends, trying to fit in with those friends that you are willing to hurt other to get there. I thought the author did a great job showing how a bully works, showing the pain of its victims.

Derek is a wonderful person putting his friends and family first. If you need help he is there, he is supportive, caring and so very loving. Alana likes is a loner she stays to herself, is the happiest in the background looking on.  She is a very sassy little thing and can stand up for herself if she must, she has had to learn but she has learned her lessons well. She is sassy, fun and caring.

A great story filled with, drama, suspense, emotional turmoil and romance. The author grabs your attention from the start taking you on another emotional ride that keeps you invested in the story until the end.  It is a very intense read of young love and what you’re willing to do to keep it.
