Shielding the Tiny Target

GIVEAWAY

ALEXANDER, DEENA
SHIELDING THE TINY TARGET

A little girl in peril...and a killer in pursuit.

Accepting help from Jack Moretta is widow Ava Colburn's last chance after her late husband's killers track her down and target her little girl. But after years on the run, it's hard to trust anyone else with her secrets. Could he be just what this little family needs to put the deadly past behind them?

My Review:

Doesn't that cover just pull you in? That's an auto-buy right there. And little Missy, aka Mischief, steals every scene she's in! And the contrast between her sweet innocence and the danger stalking them really amps up the edginess in the suspense. 

Alexander knows how to fill a scene with palpable tension and my heart was in my throat...especially in that opening scene. Wowzers! Great pacing throughout the story, where the danger is always a threat but doesn't overwhelm other elements like the romance and 'down times'. Love how it all pulls together to make for a riveting, unputdownable read.

Crime Scene Connection

GIVEAWAY


ALEXANDER, DEENA
CRIME SCENE CONNECTION

Her writing was fiction, until a killer made the danger very real...

A serial killer's imitating crime scenes from Addison Keller's bestselling novel, determined to make her the final victim. But with former police officer Jace Montana and his dog at her side, Addison might just be able to unmask the murderer. With time running out as the killer closes in, she must confront her past and unravel long-buried secrets...and hope they can all escape with their lives.

My Review:

What a stunning debut novel! Alexander propels her readers right into the action and I experienced a mega dose of the fight or flight response in that nail-biting opening scene. My nerves were shot by the end of the first chapter! :-)  I was as confused and scared as Addison was. Especially over Jace's abrupt appearance. 

The man is all tight-lipped stealth and in full out commando mode. Be still my heart. And I loved the unexpected snippets of humour in the midst of all that tension. The wary truce these not so trusting kinda-enemies try to keep as they flee from one desperate situation to the next brings a delightful edge to the romance.

And I absolutely love Phoenix -- German Shepherd extraordinaire who is always happy to oblige with a comfort hug whenever the need arises. :-)

The kind of romantic suspense that will hold you captive right to the very end. I'm really looking forward to reading more from this author...hopefully soon!
