Body of Evidence (Colby Agency: Sexi-ER #3) by Debra Webb

ER doctor Marissa Frasier needs the best protection after she's wrongly suspected of her ex-husband's murder. And rugged Colby Agency investigator Lacon Traynor is keeping her close 24/7, helping her find the truth--and uncovering her most vulnerable passions. But someone else wants Marissa for his own...and is about to use their desire as one killer trap.


Review: Thank you Debra Webb for the copy of Body of Evidence that I read and reviewed.
This book was very good and had a lot of romance and suspense in it. I enjoyed the pairing of Marissa and Lacon in this book because they complemented each other very well.
I really enjoyed Marissa as a character because she had so much spunk. I loved how she stood up to the mob boss and was not afraid to tell him how she wanted things to go. This book fit really well in the Colby Agency: Sexi-ER series.
I am giving Body of Evidence five out of five stars.
 

A Merciful Silence (Mercy Kilpatrick #4) by Kendra Elliot

For Mercy Kilpatrick, returning to rural Oregon has meant coming to terms with her roots. Raised as a prepper, Mercy is now relying on her survivalist instincts to defend her town from the people the law can’t reach. But this time, an investigation calling up a dark past for her and police chief Truman Daly may be hitting too close to home.
A rainstorm has uncovered the remains of five people—a reprise of the distinctive slaughter of two families twenty years ago. Except the convicted killer is in prison. Is this the case of a sick copycat, or is the wrong man behind bars? One person might have the answer. The lone survivor of the decades-old crimes has returned to town still claiming that she can’t remember a thing about the night she was left for dead. As the search for the truth becomes more dangerous, Mercy fears that the traumatized woman may not have buried her memories at all. She might be keeping them a secret. And there’s a price to be paid for revealing them.

Review: Thank you NetGalley for the ARC of A Merciful Silence by Kendra Elliot that I read and reviewed.
This was the fourth book in the Mercy Kilpatrick series and this series just keeps getting better. Elliot outdid herself with Mercy and and Truman's story in this book and I loved it. I also enjoyed the mystery in the book as well.
This series keeps building on itself with each book a bond even though they can be stand alone I would read the entire series from the start to get the entire feeling of what is going on with all the characters because they do show up in all books and have storylines that are ongoing.
I can't wait for the next book to see what happens next. I am giving this book five out of five stars.

Liar, Liar by Lisa Jackson

In death, Didi Storm is finally getting the kind of publicity that eluded her in life. Twenty years ago, the ex-beauty queen worked the Vegas strip as a celebrity impersonator, too busy trying to make it big to spare much time for her daughter, Remmi. Shortly before she leaped from a San Francisco building, Didi’s profile was rising again, thanks to a tell-all book. To Detective Dani Settler, it looks like a straightforward suicide, or perhaps a promotional stunt gone wrong. But Remmi knows the truth isn’t so simple. Because though the broken body on the sidewalk is dressed in Didi’s clothes and wig, it isn’t Didi.
Remmi was fifteen when she last saw her mother. Their parting came in the aftermath of a terrible night in the Mojave desert when Remmi—who’d secretly stowed away in Didi’s car en route to meet her crush, Noah Scott—instead became witness to a mysterious rendezvous. Didi handed over one of her newborn twins to a man Remmi didn’t recognize. Subsequently, Didi disappeared, as did Remmi’s other 
half-sibling. Remmi has pleaded with the authorities to find them, but there have been no clues. Yet she’s always had the sense that someone is watching her . . .
If the victim isn’t Didi, who is it—and what’s the connection? Remmi is shocked when Noah resurfaces. He was also in the desert that night, and now runs his own PI firm. He too believes it’s time to find out what really happened. As they and Detective Settler dig deeper, the truth about Remmi’s missing family begins to emerge . . . a story of ruthless ambition and twisted lies that someone will kill again and again to keep hidden .


Review: Thank you NetGalley for the ARC of Liar, Liar by Lisa Jackson that I read and reviewed.
This book was an excellent book by Lisa Jackson. I can honestly say that I was guessing from the start who the killer was and what really was going on with Didi and the twins. I loved how Jackson kept the reader on the edge and brought the story from the current time to the past and then back to the current time. It was just written so well that as a reader, I felt like I really knew what was going on the entire time.
I also loved Remmi and Noah's story and how it plays out throughout the book and time. It adds another dimension to the book for me that made it all that more better.
I have no choice but to give Liar, Liar five out of five stars because it was an excellent book full of mystery and suspense.

Catch a Killer (Secret Agents #2) by Kris Rafferty

FBI agents are trained to delve deep into the minds of the most dangerous predators. So when the tables are turned and the hunter becomes the prey, they can trust their instincts—and their hearts—to keep each other from harm . . .
FBI Special Agent Hannah Cambridge is trying to rebuild her life after the death of her partner. But Jack Benton wasn’t just a fellow agent. He was her lover—and the father of her newborn baby. Now Hannah is in Boston, heading a task force to catch a serial killer. It’s a case that could make or break her career. Until the madman turns his twisted sights on her . . .
When Jack Benton went deep undercover, he thought it was a way out of a relationship that was spiraling beyond his control. He never knew Hannah wouldn’t be told about his “death”—or that she was pregnant. Turning up in Boston in the flesh, and looking better than ever, will send Hannah into a tailspin. But both will need to keep their wits about them to keep her alive—and to survive the truth about the passion that 
binds them .


Review: Thank you NetGalley for the copy of Catch a Killer by Kris Rafferty that I read and reviewed.
This was a really good book that was full of hot romance and suspense. I loved how the author kept the reader guessing who the killer was until the very end. I also can say that the romance scorched the pages from the start as well. If you are looking for a book that is the full package this is it.
I am giving Catch a Killer five out of five stars.
