Post by BDTheresa »

I love action-crime novel. From the review it does seems interesting. Corruption, Pirates attacks, battles in international waters, and important of family, fast-paced and gripping right from the start with a huge cliff hanger in the last chapter. Danielle effort to protect her family and everything she holds dear is admirable. I did love to try out this book. Great review.

Saw the errors, but did not care. The story starts with action right away with a battle and it kept getting more interesting. Who is attacking Danielle 's family and why? I am overloaded with other books right now but look forward to finishing this one real soon.

A crime action book set in Texas, the main character sounds relatable in regards to the desire to save the ones she loves.I love that's she's not a damsel in distress, female characters that fight against situations make a story fun to read.I am going to check it out .

This is a great description of the book, though I'm not sure it's one that I would read. I do like historical fiction and this seems to have a bit of that.

I read the first few pages of this before stopping by here for your review. I still don’t know if I’m sold on it. Your review sounds like I should give it new look, but I just don’t know if the subject matter really is of interest to me. It also would appear that the grammatical mistakes should also be tidied up a bit.

I love the Good Fight by author Dan Hendrickson. It has a fascinating storyline that has me so piqued from the beginning of the story. It is an adventure thriller that depicts that there is a reaction to every action and demonstrates the importance of making wise decisions. The characters that are portrayed in this book are honorable and show great love for God and for their country. I believe that readers of this book will have a hard time closing its pages.

Sounds like a promising read, though it's a shame about the errors. I'm more concerned with the big cliffhanger at the end though, those are a big pet peeve of mine and I hate waiting, so I think I'll wait to see if there's news of a sequel before fully committing to this one. Thanks for the review!

This sounds to be pretty interesting and exciting thriller packed with action, intrigue, crime, family relations, and romance. Besides it raises such acute topics like murder, rape, physical and sexual abuse. And I'm also greatful that they are not very graphic. I got my free copy and congratulations on becoming BOTD!

I'm not sure this one is for me at the moment, but I might check it out. I especially appreciate your remark concerning a lack of graphic details when it concerns sensitive topics. I don't need the details, thanks!

Sounds like a good read! I read the prologue - the pirates, the inclusion of the Mexican president's daughter, and the Commander's temper has me drawn in to find out what happens next. Thanks so much for your review!

I'm afraid I did find the technical jargon overwhelming in the opening section, and although I agree it was fast-paced, I personally did not find it gripping. However, I'm glad you enjoyed the book.

I personally do not like stories about crime because most at times I feel the end does not always favor the victims.

I like fast-paced thrillers, but don't care much for the nautical theme. I would still be willing to try if not for the poor editing. I appreciate the realism of the characters as well as the gentle handling of the sensitive topics. Thank you for the review!
