STORM AND SHELTER is the third book in the Ebb & Flow series, continuing Quinn and Malachi's story.

Quinn is back in the States, Malachi is in Canada, but both of them are missing the other. When Malachi turns up unexpectedly, Quinn is over the moon. It is a difficult time of year for him, and having his mate there helps with the PTSD flashbacks and memories that threaten to overwhelm him. Through a series of events, not all of which I fully understand the reasoning behind, Quinn drives Malachi back home.

This book is mostly about Quinn's flashbacks and Malachi trying to help him with them. There are a LOT of "I love you's" going on, plus scenes that felt as though they were being repeated. I still can't quite get over the power imbalance between the two, which I was hoping would have evened out a little by now. While I enjoyed the story, I think you would enjoy it more if you had read the Real Werewolves Don't Eat Meat series. I haven't, and I do believe this affected my enjoyment of this story/series.

If you've read the above-named series, then I recommend Ebb & Flow. If you haven't, you might struggle.

** Same worded review will appear elsewhere. **

* A copy of this book was provided to me with no requirements for a review. I voluntarily read this book; the comments here are my honest opinion. *

Characters – Joseph Markham has been working for the CIA on a top-secret mind control project, it has reached the final stages with the final test being a success. He along with his wife soon become targets for the CIA who don’t want loose ends, which means Joseph will show his skills and training that his boss never knew he had, he will uses his training to stay alive and plan to expose the truth to the world. Valentina is the wife of Joseph, she is just as deadly, despite being held captive, she knows how the stay alive. Roland Smith is the project leader that wants to tie up any loose ends involved in the project, he doesn’t want anybody being able to spill the plans and puts all his effort into killing the Markham’s.

Performances – Richard Ryan in the leading role and on directing duties handles everything very well, with he combat scenes, showing his character’s deadly ability along with using the brains to stay ahead of the game. Jackie Nova brings us the feisty character that is the highlight of her screen time. Leon van Waas makes for the fun over the top villain through the film.

Story – The story here follows a couple that become targets of the CIA after their work for them, where they show their skills to survive and expose the truth about the project. This does follow everything we know from a late night action story, we have a skilled killer that must come out of his retired decision to protect himself, his wife and the world, when the moment comes for him to shine. We do have a villain that does following everything we are expecting to see with his evil plan that does need to be stopped. We can easily sit back and relax through this film, with the feisty dialogue being used through the film too.

Action – The action in the film is easy to watch, we deal with different fight scenes, with different fighting techniques being used to show skills behind the characters.

Settings – The film does keep the settings simple, we do have the CIA offices which sees the tight corridors when it comes to dealing with the fights and the secret locations where kidnapped people will be held.


Scene of the Movie – The plan to save the day.

That Moment That Annoyed Me – We could have had more combat sequences from Valentina.

Final Thoughts – This is a fun late night action film that could be enjoyed by all the action junkies, it keeps most things simple, without being down as plain.

Overall: Fun Action Film.
