Deadly Revenge by Patricia Bradley

 



While this was a great end of the series, I did enjoy being back in Pearl River and seeing familiar faces. As well as the suspense and mystery that this book had. It was the mystery and suspense that kept me turning the page. I loved getting to know Jenna Hart better now that she’s a small town deputy.  As well as seeing small town Tennessee police work with the TBI working together in the form of Agent Maxwell Anderson. However my only complaint was that the relationship between the hero and heroine felt somewhat rushed.

Fatal Witness by Patricia Bradley review


 Title: Fatal Witness

Author: Patricia Bradley

Ch: 69

Pg: 384

Series: Pearl River 2

Genre: Christian Romantic Suspense

Rating: 5 stars

Publisher: Revell

Fatal Witness is the second book in the Pearl River Series by Patricia Bradley and I have to say that it’s my favorite in the series so far. We meet the hero Mark Lassiter in the first book in the series so this is indeed a series that one needs to read in order. Mark is a K-9 officer for the county. He's also an Army Veteran and sniper who this reader is convinced he has PTSD. But it's his faith that helps to make him a good hero.  
Dani Bennett is a potter who has no memory of her life prior to moving to Montana with her uncle. Little does she know her Grandmother Mae Richmond has been looking for; for twenty five years.

I took my time with this one because I didn’t want it to end. But it was one that I could have easily finished in one day if I didn’t need to be a responsible adult and go to work the next day because I just had to find out what happened. I’m just a little sad that I guessed the bad guy before they figured it out.

Fatal Witness was my favorite kind of romantic suspense suspenseful with a hint of romance. Mark was the perfect romantic suspense hero not perfect he had his flaws, but he was a good man trusting God. And with Mae this book shows just how far the love of a grandmother goes for her granddaughter. I loved the faith content I just wished we knew where Dani was on her faith journey.

I look forward to the final book in the series.

Counter Attack by Patricia Bradley review

Title: Counter Attack 

Author: Patricia Bradley

Ch: 72

Pg: 378

Series: A Pearl River book 1

Genre: Christian Romantic Suspense

Rating: 4.5 stars

Publisher: Revell

 

I wasn’t sure how I was going to like Counter Attack by Patricia Bradley because even though I tend to love small town law enforcement stories I’m not a huge fan of second chance romance stories. But I didn’t need to worry. As the romance in this one is only a small part of the story.

Alexis Stone is a Chattanooga police officer who wants to be police chief. She has no desire to go back to her small hometown of Pearl River though the grandparents who raised her are still there. Nathan Landry is the police chief of Pearl River. He never wanted to leave his small town and he’s Alexis high school boyfriend. Neither one is looking for romance when an emergency lands Alexis back in town as the acting sheriff and both of them trying to stop a serial killer.

As someone who only likes a little bit of romance with my romantic suspense this one was perfect. What I loved about this one the most was the faith aspect, while Alexis is running from God he’s running after her and he uses her grandma to do it. The faith of that woman reminded me so much of my own grandma. And I just loved her stubborn grandpa.

Counter Attack was a quick read I kept turning pages because I just had to know what happened. It’s not every day you find a romantic suspense set job in a small town that involves a serial killer. The only drawback for me as a reader is that I figured out the bad guy before the heroine and hero did. Even though there are clues throughout the book it’s not enough for most readers to pick it up, but if you read as much suspense as I do then you may also piece together the clues. However, it didn’t take away my enjoyment of the book and I can’t wait to read the next book in the series.
