*Very Happy Sigh* If you like young lovers torn apart and reunited with some suspense and both of them are celibate in the eight year interim, you will love this book. It is like an Appalachian version of Penny Jordan, but with bad guys who get a real comeuppance.
This is my first read by SS and must say that I was not very impressed. Not impressed with the dialogues, the dynamics of the hero and heroine and certainly not with the wavering heroine. My AdamBut I very much enjoyed the book because of the bad guys. Ike Pappas and his son Adam were the sole reason I gave it 3stars. I felt so deeply for Adam, being a son of the Mafioso boss was not what it cracks out to be. He was torn between the bad that was his father and the good that was his mother. And
2.5 stars. The story hooked me right from the beginning but lost me somewhere along the way. Adam had the most interesting role in this book; the MCs were a bit dull. However, I liked the safety of this story. I think that both MCs were celibate during their ten year separation. The H was just too wonderful to be true. I also liked the multiple povs told from the third person perspective. Ultimately, however, this was a little undeveloped and too syrupy for me to totally enjoy.
3.5 starsThis was a second chance at love romantic suspense. Beth Veneable witnessed a murder by a crime lord. She was put into witness protection but after 3 compromised safe house stays, Beth decided to take her chances on her own. Her attempt to stay alive takes her back home to Rebel Ridge, the home she fled 10 years ago as well as her first love Ryal. Ryal has a 10 yr grudge against Beth, but her life is more important right now. But can he forgive her for breaking his heart?It was a well w...
Very good mystery/suspense. The same premise of Kin Folk helping as Patrick Swayze's movie, but totally different. Good romance with the H & h who were reunited. Lots of action!
Enjoyed this more than I expected for a Harlequin Romance book; I skipped the hot sexy-bits. Reminded me a lot of Nora Roberts' The Witness, but with significantly less story development. Made a nice change from the 1920s' mysteries by Carola Dunn that I've been reading for a couple of weeks.
What an awesome book! It keeps you on the edge of your seat wondering what will happen next. Very well written with wonderful characters that draw you into the story. I loved every minute of the story!
I started this series with Book 2 and as soon as I finished it, I had to get the other two books. They were all terrific and I enjoyed the hell out of them!
As unbelievable as this may sound I read this book by accident. I was asked to buddy read Next of Kin and just downloaded the first one I came to. When my reading partner came for a discussion at the end of Chapter 6 it quickly became obvious we were talking about completely different books!.Anyway, this is sold as a thriller and I would have trouble classifying it as that. The blurb for this could be written two ways. The first way as a thriller and the second as a romance. I think for the majo...
Review originally posted here: http://thebookpushers.com/2012/02/10/...Publisher: HQNPublish Date: Out Now!How I got this book: NetGalleyI was so excited for the new Sala book because I’ve been a big fan of hers since the first book I picked up. However, I’m not too sure that this series is one that I am going to be able to be totally on board with. I thought Sala could make me enjoy some hillbilly romance, but alas it’s just not happening.Beth’s life gets thrown into shambles after she witnesse...
"Next of Kin" is the very first book by Sharon Sala I've ever read, so I can't say that I'm familiar with her work other than the fact that I received this as a galley in 2011 and am just now having the opportunity to read it (I'm working through a rather long backlog). It gets two stars because it pulled me into the story for its suspense/thriller elements. Its a story about a woman who witnesses a murder from her window, sort of in a "Rear Window" type way. Beth watches a couple arguing and th...
Beth and Ryal were childhood sweethearts (okay they were young adults but it just doesn't have the same ring to it) ripped apart before they had a chance to build on their young love. Circumstances led them both to believe that the other had turned away and eventually they moved on with their lives. Beth was taken away by her parents to California and Ryal continued to live in Kentucky.Fast forward a few years and Beth is a witness to a murder...a mob-related murder. Now her life is in danger an...
You can run, but you can't hide.... This was exceptionally written, and exceeded my expectations. Beth Venable is just a small town girl, who found love at an early age and was forced to move away from her town she grew up to know and love, including Ryal. After getting settled in L.A she always wondered what happened to Ryal from Kentucky. A few years later she gets evacuated as her house has a gas leak and stays over at a friends house and thru a telescope witnesses a murder, after they call i...
