Intense, descriptive, characters I could care about. So you might need to read something light before taking on the next one in the series, because writing about war and terrorism means some pretty horrendous stuff, but really worth your while. I'll definitely read the rest. I received this copy from the publisher through Netgalley.com and that in no way has influenced my opinion in regards to this review.

Crossposted at Bookstooge.booklikes.blogspot.wordpress.com by express permission of this reviewer My Thoughts: The description for this book made it seem that it would be about a Special Forces team whose leader was a Christian. A girl was going to be involved somehow. So my expectations were all pumped up for a Mack Bolan kind of book. Lots of mayhem, bullets flying, explosions, damsel in distress, badguys befuddled and ultimately killed. So when the Team is described like slabs of man-meat, eyes are "drilling through" like diamonds and the lead female dramatically faints in the hero's arms after an attack, I was angry beyond belief. This was a romance, albeit a non-porn one like most of what I see out there. Most of my anger and disgust stems from the fact that I felt like this was a real Bait-N-Switch. If this had been presented as a romance, then I would not have even tried it and both I and the author would have been happier with me not reading it. Instead, now we have another author added to my "Authors to Avoid" list. I hate expending emotional energy on crap I don't like. Rating: 1 of 5 Stars Author: Ronie Kendig " All the best things… Quick Summary: A gritty romance set in Afghanistan where absolutely anything can happen. What I liked: I liked the descriptions of Afghanistan and life there that made the story live for me. I enjoyed the beginning of the story that set up the entire novel with tight suspense. The story itself is believable since in that part of the world anything can happen. I also liked the connection to characters in her previous series. What I did not like: I cannot remember anything I did not like. The bottom line: Readers looking for Christian romantic suspense need to pick this one up today. Rating > Overall - 5 Creativity - 5 Characters - 5 Engrossing - 5 Writing - 5 Appropriate length to tell the story - 5 I received an ARC from NetGalley. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
