Kate Alexander is recuperating from a three year coma after
a near fatal car accident. Her memories begin a year ago. Living in Houston
with her husband and four year old son flight 524 explodes a flight her husband
is on. There are no survivors. Whilst
mourning the death of her husband Kate finds a picture of a little girl and
without a doubt in her mind she knows this is her daughter and begins to question
everything that she has been lead to believe about her life. Her discovery directs
her to San Francisco searching for answers about what had really happened four
years ago.
Ryan Harrison is the CEO of a pharmaceutical company in San
Francisco; he devotes his life to his job and his daughter after the tragic
loss of his wife, Anna when her flight crashed.
He seemingly has everything a man could desire but he still yearns for
another moment more with his wife. As Kate and his paths cross Ryan feels a
familiarity in Kate, a connection that guides them in to a passionate romance
and on to a trail of dangerous lies and secrets to discover what really happened
on Anna’s flight all those years ago.
I really enjoyed the mystery in this book, the twists and turns
kept making me turn the pages and were always engaging and the storyline well-paced.
The romance is also good and at times heart wrenching. The audience also gets
to follow not one but two couples which made it that more enjoyable to get to
know other characters well.
Remy is caught in a world where humans are fighting for
their survival after an outbreak of Lysaavirus Genotype 8; a mutation of the
rabies virus which induced high adrenaline level to turn them inhumanly strong,
incredibly violent and beyond the reach of rationality. They are now zombies.
Nineteen year old Remy is on a mission across America to
search for her brother Max after the quarantine they have been living in is
attacked my zombies and burned to the ground.
Remy and Harlow manage to escape and set off on a page turning journey,
north to where she is told her brother has been taken. Remy encounters zombies,
a lion, a rockstar and a cult but nothing will stand in her way and stop her
from finding her brother.
I picked this up as I´m fan of dystopian fiction and of
Amanda Hocking, not so much of the zombie kind but this book converted me. Remy
is fearless, she is kick-ass an I admire that a lot in a heroine compared to
the damsel in distress type of female protagonists.
Dr Giovanni Vecchio has a long history, a history with an
unsolved mystery. Whilst transcribing an old Tibetan Manuscript at a University
archives he crosses paths with student librarian Beatrice De Nova. Miss De Nova
catches his interest and after he delves further in to her background realises
she could hold some valuable clues.
Beatrice´ s father has been missing for 10 years, assumed
dead. After shocking revelations from Gio she finds out everything is not what
it seems. Diving head first in to an unfamiliar paranormal world with handsome
Gio she’s throttled in to dangerous
waters uncovering once well hidden secrets and the flames of a dark, brooding
romance ignites.
Picking this up as a free read was a great choice. I liked
it so much that I went ahead and bought the next in the series. Whilst other
books lunge in to “instalove”, Elizabeth Hunter treats us to a slow-cooking
romance. The book was well written balancing the right mixture adventure,
mystery, drama and romance to keep the audience well entertained.
