A great story from Susan May Warren! Chet Stryker has already lost one woman that he loved and is not willing to take that chance again. He however is not prepared for the fact that his decision will nearly cost him that love. Mae Lund is a pilot who is a risk taker, willing to fly dangerous missions, and she wants a job with his new security company. Their attraction to each other makes her hopeful that the job will be hers, but Chet's protective nature is not having any of it. A call out of th...more
I really enjoy several books I’ve read by Susan May Warren so I anxiously awaited the arrival of a review copy of this book. I read the first page from Point of No Return and was hooked. Susan’s family was in Russia living as missionaries for several years. Because of her experience there she’s able to bring the readers an insight and realism that brings the story to life.

The Point of No Return is an exciting romantic suspense novel that has great pacing and intrigue. I read the book straight through and it held my interest the entire time. I loved the twists and turns and the international setting. The hero was complex and his history fit his current issues and behavior. The same went for the heroine.
The romantic tension sizzled between the hero and heroine and I found myself wanting them to work through their insecurities and find a way to make a long-term rel...more

As a romantic suspense enthusiast from way back when, I jumped at the chance to check out Susan May Warren’s Love Inspired Suspense Series: Missions of Mercy. Susan’s a prolific author, but I’ve only read one of her books. So I was eager to see what she would bring to the table for the romantic suspense genre. Here are the pros and cons of what her LI series has to offer . . .
First, the pros:
Exotic locations: check
Heart-stopping suspense: check
Plucky, resourceful heroines: check

This was a Christian suspense novel. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this book. There weren't many religious references and they didn't interfere with the story. I liked the main characters and I like these type of stories where it's a military operation or such.
Absoultely hated it. Point of No Return is like Mack Bolan decided to get saved and do a miniseries on the Hallmark Channel. This book has no true action, no true adventure, and is not even insprational. In a word: Awful. When the apocalypse comes, this will be the first book burned for warmth.
It took a while for me to get into this book because I wasn't completely familiar with the military terms being used. Once I got past that, it was engaging, especially since Chet and Mae had a relationship before the book started.
Of the three books in this series, Point of No Return was my favorite. Why? Because it was the perfect combination of high action suspense, faith and romance. Plus, how can you not love a strong willed female lead like Mae? She’s a hot shot helicopter pilot, after all. It doesn’t gets much cooler than that. :) I also feel that this was the most action-packed of the three. Mae is trying to save her nephew, Chet is trying to save her, all in a country where he is public enemy #1. Throw in a couple...more

I enjoyed this book. There was a lot of action and the requisite love/hate relationship with a happy ending.
An interesting story about 'round the world romance' and the importance of doing the right things for those you love.
Not a new favorite, unfortunately. :( But it was a good book, nothing wrong with it (IMHO) and good for a one time read.
I liked the spin off series idea, from the Russia series.
