Special Feature: Open Secrets by Sheila Kohler
I have not read any of Sheila Kohler’s books before, but it appears that she has written a number of novels that are either historical fiction or non-fiction. Her latest book, Open Secrets, appears to be her first novel of suspense. The first thing that caught my eye about this one was the exotic settings. It looks as though readers will be transported to the French Riviera as well as maybe some other exotic locations such as the Swiss Alps. It sounds like quite the contrast and the exotic locations lured me in! I am super excited to read this one perhaps later on this fall when my calendar becomes…

Take Two Review: My Lovely Wife by Samantha Downing
When this book came out last year, I was instantly sold on the summary. It sounded so dark and twisted and I was dying to read it. I made room for it on my review schedule and was so glad that I did. Recently a few of my closest girlfriends have been tossing around the idea of starting a muderino-esque book club where all we read is thrillers and/or true crime books. Being THE reader in this group, it has fallen to me to pick books that I think would be great for our little book club. This was the first book I had thought of when we started talking…

I am thrilled to be able to bring you guys a little sneak peak into this hot new thriller today so keep reading and see what some of today’s hottest thriller authors are saying about this one!

Review: Stories We Never Told by Sonja Yoerg
Sonja Yoerg is another author that I have been a long time fan of, though I have to admit I was a little worried about this one. Yoerg usually writes more women’s fiction, but this one was marketed as more of a thriller. But I did keep an open mind. I hate how some authors get pigeon holed into writing a certain genre, just because an author is known for writing women’s fiction doesn’t mean she can’t write anything else right? While Yoerg might be known for a certain genre, I would argue that she should be known for her ability to write complex characters that truly stand out rather…

Review: Who Speaks for the Damned (Sebastian St. Cyr #15) by C.S. Harris
When I started reading the Sebastian St Cyr books from beginning to end in December, I had this book in the forefront of my mind. I had really jumped around in this series over the years and that often left me feeling a little confused as to different character relations. I was tried of feeling lost in the series, so before this book came out I went back and read the entire series beginning to end starting in December. There wasn’t a single minute that I regretted that decision. I loved all of the books, though some were better than others, I still enjoyed watching the characters evolve and change.…

Review: A Stroke of Malice (Lady Darby Mystery #8) by Anna Lee Huber
2019 wasn’t even over yet before I sunk my teeth into this one on a cold December afternoon. I adore this series and couldn’t resist picking this one up well before the official release date to see what adventures Gage and Lady Darby get up to this time around! I am sure a huge fan of Anna Lee Huber, I have read every single book she’s written and while some are better than others, both her Lady Darby and Verity Kent series are solid and tried and true favorites of mine and I would gladly clear my calendar for any of her books! I picked this one up on a…
