Act of Survival is my favorite book in Marsha R. West's Second Chances series. The main character, Kim, is determined to leave her abusive husband who is a member of a powerful family. With the help and support of her good friends and a very cool lawyer, she makes the break, but fears for her life. I especially enjoyed the gentle romance that grew throughout the story between Kim and the lawyer. I applaud Ms. West for bringing awareness to domestic violence through this story. If you like suspense and romance, you'll enjoy reading this book.

I loved Marsha R. West's latest romantic suspense, Act of Survival. It's a second chance story about an abused woman leaving her husband steeped in suspense and intrigue. I highly recommend it for readers who like suspenseful tales.

I thoroughly enjoyed the entire Second Chances series, but this really was my favorite of the four books. I'll be reading more of Marsha West's books..
