A Woman Scorned

Rate this book
With a billion-dollar bounty on their lives, Donovan Creed and Callie Carpenter learn yet again that no one—not even their lovers and friends—can be trusted. Virtually broke, they turn to embarrassing home invasions and petty hits to rebuild their nest egg.

In addition to each other, Callie and Creed have dreams. Creed’s is to retire and live in a scenic lake house. Callie’s is to romance a local hot mom. The same hot mom who happens to be the target of a creepy, dangerous stalker named Walter Develin.

Normally, I finish a Donovan Creed book and I throw my head back and laugh out loud. This book, I have no clue what the heck happened and I was confused and annoyed by the cliffhanger.

It’s a Locke!

It’s good to catch up with Creed and Callie

This is a typical Locke book. Lots of fun, twists, humor and dark grins. I never get tied of reading his books.

I did think that the chimney hide was so-so and was leaning towards a fake water heater with a fresh air vent out the roof.... but that’s just me :)

Ok, off to read his “handwritten” book. I have read every book that John has ever wrote and expectations are high but he has never let me down.

I’ll let you know.

This one's a little different

Locke seems to be on a roll the last few books. Perspective jumps around often in this one, which allows for some fun point of view changes.

It's just more of what you expect from Locke and aD.C. novel. Either you already enjoy these and will want to keep going or you don't and this one isn't likely to change your mind.

On to the next one for me.

Locke Does It Again

What do you get when you mix a perv like Walter Develin, a sexy, hot mom like Jane Everly, Donovan Creed, and Callie Carpenter together? You get this book! And how do Callie and Donovan get mixed up with Walter and Jane? Read it, and find out. You'll be glad you did!

5 Stars, as usual

Mr. Locke never fails to draw me into the story no matter who the main characters are. Donovan, Callie, Dr. Box or Emmet (how do you keep so many stories fresh?). This is a fast read, and I bet you will laugh out load.

Easy and smooth reading. Great book!

Love this series! It's hard to put down. The first 8 are better. However, this one leads up to a sequel. Yay! These are easy and smooth reading which is another reason I love his books!

So sad it’s over.

I hope book 15 won’t be the last on Donovan Creed and Callie Carpenter. I’m so glad I started this series. I loved each and every book and like my review title says I’m so sad that it’s over. 🥺🤧 looking forward to more in the future. 🤞🏾

Another witty and fast paced Donovan Creed book. This one was just ok for me, a little light on story depth, but it seems like there will be a sequel? So maybe that will change my opinion.

Oh, Boy

A funny bit about what John Locke would do. I love it when he puts himself into his stories.
Spoiler Alert: There's going to be a sequel. Just hurry up!

Not bad !

About the same plot as other books, didn't get the big twist you normally get. Will definitely read more books by this author.

I enjoyed this book. This is the last available book in The Donovan Creed series. I will have to wait until another is published to continue. I can't wait.

Poor callie.

Book15 in a very popular series. Told from multiple perspectives. Everyone seems like a covert agent of great skill. Except for the hot momma.
