Review: Susan May Warren – The Price of Valor

I expected that I would be giving this book two or three stars when I was a quarter of the way through. I was frustrated with the characters and was praying that it would get better. Thankfully, I had a reason to root for Ham and Signe by the end, and I got the resolution that I wanted to a long-running plotline.

Review: Susan May Warren – The Heart of a Hero

Poor Aria cannot get a break. I think after the events of this book, she will refuse to ever go on vacation again. Last time, she fell off a mountain, and now she is stuck in the Keys during a hurricane. Fortunately, she has Jake to come to her rescue while causing some chaos of his own. This is an action-packed thrill ride that I would have given five stars to except for the yo-yo effect of the push away – pull together aspects of the romance.

Review: Susan May Warren – The Way of the Brave

The Way of the Brave puts the suspense into the Romantic Suspense genre. Unlike most of the books in the genre, this one does not have a human antagonist. Instead, the characters face off against the unforgiving Mt. Denali. Orion and Jenny are forced to face their past together in Afghanistan while weather traps them on the mountain. While the book got very technical on the ice climbing information, it was an enjoyable read and sets the stage nicely for Jake and Ham’s books.

Review: Susan May Warren – Wyatt

Wyatt was the hardest of the Montana Marshalls books for me to get through. It’s a roller coaster ride of hockey, fight scenes, anxious hospital rooms, and politics in addition to relationship ups and downs. Mikka was an adorable addition to the cast, and it was nice to get more insight into Gerri and York’s characters. Unfortunately, Wyatt and Coco never really meshed well as a couple for me.

Review: Nadine C. Keels – Reviving the Commander

Reviving the Commander is a beautiful story about love after loss and hope in whatever circumstances you find yourself. While the story starts slowly with the backstory for the land and various character’s introductions, the story hits it’s stride and keeps a steady pace through to the end. If you are looking for a romance starring a couple past their “prime” and a clean read, this book is for you.
