   Finished Alex Kava's Split Second (Maggie O'Dell #2) and it was great but was definitely part two of the first book.
      Finished Alex Kava's Split Second (Maggie O'Dell #2) and it was great but was definitely part two of the first book. Also finished T.R. Ragan's Obsessed (Lizzie Gardner #4). Great thriller with multiple plot lines, very different sidekicks and shocker cliffhanger ending. Definitely moves you right in to Lizzie #5 Almost Dead.
        
      I finished Barefoot in Lace by Roxanne St. Claire and loved it, too. Reading the final book in the trilogy, Barefoot in Pearls.

Jonetta, I just finished Unsung Hero. I absolutely loved this book. Is the rest of the series as good? I've never cried so much reading a book.
        
      The rest of the series is even better! Believe it or not, this is the weakest of the group and it's one of my most favorite series.
    
  
  
   - Unbelievable! I'm at 60% and just about speechless! What I thought I knew just got much worse. Slaughter is unbelievable - a master at this angsty, shocking, raw, dark, emotional characters - and that don't count the villain!..Some sick, sick, sick, people here.

 Lol Sandra...I really understand. I actually had mini anxiety attacks starting a new book, because I just knew it was going to get worse.

      I finished Blind Faith, Sin Brothers #3, and enjoyed the switch to audio format. Looking forward to the final book in the series. 
I'm now listening to Edge by Tiffinie Helmer, an Audible review request. Thought I try this new to me author.

No, but I'll check them out now. Thanks."
They are Mercy Thompson and Alpha & Omega. The two series intersect so I'd follow the Mercy Thompson World series list.

      I finished listening to Blind Faith by Rebecca Zanetti and here's my joint review with my co-blogger, Jennifer.
   
    
  
  
   
    
        
      I finished Falling For Sarah by Cate Beauman and though I enjoyed it, the hero (Ethan) barely escaped my anti hottie harem. He had quite a few jerk moments. 
I'm now going off plan to start Obsession in Death, In Death #50 (big surprise:)).
