I used to read lots of his books. Somehow I missed this one. It was not what I expected but I enjoyed it. I liked Jimmy Tock and his family. A different kind of thriller. 4/5⭐️

I may not like to put up the tree and start decorating but this is the perfect time to start the Christmas books to get me into the spirit.
Another one of Ms. Brown's earlier (1997) romantic suspense, though for much of the book it was lighter on the romance than some. Not one of her best but still pretty engrossing. The heroine was a bit one dimensional, but as with most of Ms. Brown's books the hero was well written. She does know how to write those good guy with bad guy vibes heroes.

I haven't read a Linda Howard book in a long time. I enjoyed this book. Howard had good character development. The story line was interesting. Baily Weston is in charge of her stepchildrens trust and they are not happy at all about that. She goes on vacation but ends up in a plane crash. Will her and the pilot be found?
😊 Happy Reading 😊

11-2-25: My 71st finished book of 2025! Abby and Sam desperately want a baby but Abby is infertile and all IVF tries have failed. When their adoption fails Abby‘s assistant at the ad agency, Monica, offers to be their surrogate. What follows is a story of one woman‘s fall from grace and the other woman‘s sneaky betrayal. No one can be trusted in this story which culminates in a big surprising ending. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️📖#️⃣7️⃣1️⃣

In 𝐀𝐥𝐥 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐁𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬, 𝐇𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐏𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐩𝐩𝐢 𝐑𝐲𝐚𝐧's lead character has secrets that, if revealed, could derail her career, destroy her reputation, &/or decimate her happy family. It's a clever, twisty, thought-provoking thriller at the center of which is a sympathetic woman who fears reverberations from a choice she was forced to make many yrs. ago. Gripping & entertaining. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

So brave!
Although if they sound anything like foxes, I can't blame him for going into protective mode...

This story was good, but it could have been a lot better. I didn't trust Sam at all. I was surprised by the twist. I didn't really care for the ending but it could lead to a part 2 if the author cares to do that. If I say more it will ruin it for others. Definitely worth the read.
