Good balance of action, romance, suspense, etc

Technically a follow on trilogy to the 'Study' series. The protagonist is a minor character in some significant adventures, which are mentioned multiple times. Can still enjoy without having read those, but might be slightly confusing at times (0 more)

Good mummy story

The story for a modern age mummy movie was good. It combined some comedy along with a little suspense and action to theater. Of course they had to go and make sequels. The first is still the best in the series

Absolutely Spectacular

This fantastic book follows the journey of a girl and her desire to discover the secrets of a ancient robot. Well written, the driving plot makes it impossible to put down while the format has you craving for even more answers.

Movie Rating

A very average thriller that is quite slow at times. Lacking a lot of action and suspense. It's starting to look quite dated now and I think I got it mixed up with Presumed innocent, also starring Harrison Ford, which is a much better thriller as I recall.

Clare Parrott (294 KP) rated Hot Secrets (Tall, Dark & Deadly #1) in Books

Feb 13, 2018

This is the first book I read by Lisa Renee Jones back in 2012. The whole series is fabulous, The Walker brothers are sexy Alpha males , available to hire to save the girl and Royce is first up. You'll love the series if your a fan of romantic suspense.

Book Rating

The Doll Maker is a traditional suspense mystery with a lesbian twist. The main characters were both complicated and their internal conflict was as much an antagonist as the actually murderer. This is a new direction for Highton-Stevenson and I look forward to reading more in this direction.

Set in D.C., Seattle and small town America, Emergency Powers is a story of corruption and redemption, achieved at enormous personal cost.
