3.5 stars.

I really liked the first two books in this series but it has been a while since I read them so my tastes have changed a little.

This started a little too slowly for me. Never the less, after it reached the 45% mark I did start to get reeled in by the story and the characters.

I wanted Raj and Sarah to get together.

I wanted to figure out who was taking the girls and why.<br/>I wanted Raj to become Master.

That ending also has me intrigued, so I will be reading book 4 at some point in the future.

an absolute gripping novel with lots of twists and turns
Steve wendell is the detective put in charge of the disappearance of Britany Rodgers. He is determined to find out what happened to her no matter how long it takes.

I thoroughly enjoyed this novel there were so many twists and turns I really did not expect half of what happened or the outcome of the case and not to brag but I'm normally quite good at figuring these kind of things out. There was alot of emotion involved in the story and I felt every bit of it.

Deffinatly a gripping novel fantastically written 4/5 stars

3.5 stars, mainly because Suzanne's books can be too long for my liking a lot of the time and because I got fed up of reading the sex scenes.

I'm pretty picky about my shifter books, preferring vampires to shapeshifters most days, and this one was good but I felt it went on too long.

Character wise I think I liked Marcus the most, though I couldn't really explain why. I also liked Dante. In fact, most of the guys were pretty cool but I did have favourites.

Other than wanting to read book 4, Marcus' book, I haven't decided if I want to read the rest of the series yet.

This book just made me cry and laugh and cry! I have to admit though I gave up on it the first time! I got 50 pages in and just did not have any desire to pick it back up again. Thank god I did! It was many months later but I told myself I must keep going! Just wow, I loved it, the characters were so very well written and their relationships are just magical. There is such a twist in the story which I won't mention, but I didn't see that coming at all. I just loved it, I have given it 4 stars because of the slow start!

‏I was provided with a complimentary copy of this book so I could give an honest review.

After reading Christina McDonald's The Night Olivia Fell, I was eager to read her latest, Behind Every Lie.

Behind Every Lie has an interesting premise - how can you prove you did not do something if you cannot remember it. Eva Hansen wakes up in a hospital after being struck by lightning. She discovers her mother was murdered and Eva was found just down the street from the murder. She cannot remember what happened but the police doubt her and her convenient memory loss. What follows is a two continent race to solve the mystery before the police arrest her. Did Eva kill her mother? If not, who did?

Both of Christina McDonald's books grabbed me right at the beginning and kept me there throughout the whole story. I was worried because I rarely believe a book is 5 stars. It has to blow me away. I gave The Night Olivia Fell 5 stars. I was hoping Christina McDonald was not a "one and done" author. Behind Every Lie proves she is not. While I did not give Behind Every Lie 5 stars, it did earn a well-deserved 4 and ensured Christina McDonald is an author I will continue to read.
