40 -- The Price of Silence

The Price Of Silence by Kate Wilhelm

My review

rating: 2 of 5 stars
Wasn't real impressed, but this was romantic suspense and not meant to be a really impressive mystery I guess. I figured out the kidnapper early on and wanted to scream at the main characters who couldn't figure it out. It was way too obvious for me to enjoy the rest of the book.

39 -- Wrong Place Wrong Time

Wrong Place, Wrong Time by Andrea Kane

My review

rating: 3 of 5 stars
What begins as a romantic weekend in a cozy cabin turns into a deadly nightmare when Sally Montgomery's companion Frederick Pierson is murdered. But instead of regarding Sally as a missing victim, the police are after her as their prime suspect.



To evade the authorities and a brutal killer, Sally takes to the woods, relying on her wits and basic survival skills to stay alive. Desperate, she calls Pete Montgomery, her ex-husband and former NYPD detective turned private investigator for help. With Sally's life on the line, Monty recruits their daughter Devon to work the case with him.



Devon has her father's cop instincts. As she probes deeper into her mother's disappearance, the investigation brings her closer to uncovering a dangerous Pierson family 'secret' one that could destroy a family empire and its heir apparent, Blake Pierson. Though powerfully attracted to Blake, Devon isn't sure if he's friend or foe. She does know he'll do anything to protect his family. With Devon's heart and Olympic gold at stake, how far will his family loyalty extend?



Time is running out. Danger is closing in. Can Devon prove Sally's innocence before she becomes the killer's next victim?

My thoughts: Good romantic suspense, not great.

38 -- TGWSS

The Girl Who Stopped Swimming by Joshilyn Jackson

My review

rating: 4 of 5 stars
This was another great book from author Joshilyn Jackson. I won it from a blog contest on Bookin' with Bingo. Great book blog by the way. TGWSS was different from her other two books. It seemed a bit darker. Still there were wonderful characters and a great mystery element. I certainly didn't expect the ending and was a little sad that things happened the way they did. Anxiously awaiting the next book by Mrs. Jackson and will have to console myself with reading her blog, Faster than Kudzu until the next book is published.

36 -- Kill Me

Kill Me by Stephen White

My review

rating: 4 of 5 stars
Synopsis: What if you could choose when to die?

But once you decide, you can't change your mind. Ever. No matter what.

We've all been there. A loved one or a dear friend becomes desperately ill, or is tragically injured. Maybe an automobile accident, maybe a stroke. Someone – maybe even you – says, "If that ever happens to me, I wish someone would just . . . kill me."

So . . . what if you had a chance to decide, in advance, what level of impairment you were willing to suffer before someone did just that – kill you? And what if you went ahead and hired someone to carry out your instructions? And what if . . .

Well, welcome to Kill Me.

Meet the Death Angels.

It's Alan Gregory's most tantalizing, most provocative, and most controversial case ever. A charming, vivacious man flies into Boulder, walks into Alan's office, and slowly begins to reveal the mess he's in.

The Death Angels are coming. Watch your back.



My thoughts: Oh my, but this was a different sort of thriller. Loved it. Highly recommend it if you like thrillers. It had everything in just the right amounts. Found it very difficult to put it down. I'll definitely be reading more by Mr. White.

35-- We Are All Welcome Here

We Are All Welcome Here by Elizabeth Berg

My review

rating: 4 of 5 stars
A short lovely book. This was my first by Elizabeth Berg and I enjoyed it thoroughly. Of the three women in this book, my favorite is Diana. Such a strong, resilient young woman. The author captured the essence of her struggle to be a young woman while still having all the thoughts and dreams of a girl. Diana is the hero of this story, not Paige. Paige is strong, but does she really have a choice? Peacie and LaRue are a cliche, but it's the right cliche for this story. My only complaint is that the book was too short.

34- One Foot in the Grave

One Foot in the Grave by Jeaniene Frost

My review

rating: 4 of 5 stars
synopsis:Half-vampire Cat Crawfield is now Special Agent Cat Crawfield, working for the government to rid the world of the rogue undead. She's still using everything Bones, her sexy and dangerous ex, taught her, but when Cat is targeted for assassination, the only man who can help her is the vampire she left behind.

Being around Bones awakens all her emotions, from the adrenaline rush of slaying vamps side by side to the reckless passion that consumed them. But a price on her head - wanted: dead or half-alive - means her survival depends on teaming up with Bones. And no matter how hard Cat tries to keep things professional between them, she'll find that desire lasts forever ... and Bones won't let her get away again.

My thoughts: this one blew me away. Loved Cat and Bones. Was happy to find out more about Cat's dad and had wondered if Mom was telling the whole truth about her birth. Sex scenes are intense and yummy. Gotta get ahold of the next in this series.

33- Visions in Death

Visions in Death by J.D. Robb

My review

rating: 4 of 5 stars
Synopsis: Lt. Eve Dallas searches the darkest corners of Manhattan for an elusive killer with a passion for collecting souls.

My thoughts: Another Eve Dallas book, what's not to love. An interesting twist introduced through a psychic. Peabody is targeted and is badly injured. Mavis and Leonardo are getting closer to having that baby. How will it all turn out.
