Enjoyed this fast paced suspense book! A lot of the stuff in this book felt like it was ripped from today’s headlines. The action and intrigue really drew me in and I found it hard to put down. It’s a race against time as Tallie Brown is trying to find her father whom she recently discovered and is now missing. In the previous book, it’s revealed that her mother Julia wasn’t her biological mother and kidnapped her. Despite the dubious circumstances in which she was raised, Tallie can thank Julia for everything she taught her about tracking, self-defense, etc. as it definitely comes in handy as the story progresses.

There’s a bit of romance between Tallie and Jackson James, a once disgraced reporter whom Tallie met in the first book. Their budding relationship is put on hold as Tallie is thrown from one situation to the next starting with a suspicious Amber Alert. From there, the lies and intrigue get more intense. With a global conspiracy and world leaders going missing, the stakes get ever higher. There are plenty of twists and turns and each clue revealed, however small, plays a role later in the story. It’s definitely a suspenseful ride with so many people whom you aren’t sure are trustworthy.

This is my first book by Laurie Lewis and it definitely won’t be the last. My only regret is that I didn’t read the first book in the series. While the author does a fantastic job catching new readers up to speed, there’s still so much information given in the previous book that I felt a little lost at first. I still really enjoyed it and will definitely go back and read the first book. Highly recommend to romantic suspense or clean suspense readers.

This read will grab you and will not let go until the final page is turned, and then it is going to linger with you!
Revenge, a very appropriate title, but to the greatest extremes you could ever imagine, and thus be prepared for a read you will not be able to put down.
The author gives us characters that you will quickly embrace, and you put a face to the evil that is lurking! Be prepared to hold your breath, and you will be ducking over the bullets that are flying, and be careful of the vile chemicals!
I highly recommend this read that will keep you up late, and on the edge of your seat!
