Book Review by Bree Herron
Fast paced, unique suspense and a hunk to save the day. All in a day of reading this wonderful book. It was a page turner that I didn’t put down!
Characters
Drina and Cal are our duo for this love inspired suspense story. Drina is fierce and I mean this in she is smart, strong and just wonderful. I really loved her brilliance ( I could never do her job) she has a mind and I really love that the author showed that. Cal is tough, and hidden (but because of his job). Together these two are a force.
Enjoyable Moments
Favorite part, that will be tough with this book. I really loved when Cal and Drina met. First encounters are tough to sometimes write but I felt the author did a great job with these two. I also love when the climax of the suspense hits!
Synoptic
Overall, this book gives readers a reason to watch for this author. It was tidy in the details, great in the characters and the suspense is some of the best I have read. I love that we had smart characters, faith and a unique area to have it all take place. I got to do plenty day tripping in my mind through this book, and I didn’t want it to end.
What do you enjoy about strong female characters?

I love strong female characters because they break the stereotypical mold of damsel in distress who can’t help themselves. 🙂 Not that there is anything wrong with damsel in distress, but let’s make them with a little more backbone while they are waiting for the hero to rescue them! I also love Love Inspired Suspense and with all the reviews I’ve read for this one have been very complimentary! I haven’t met one I haven’t enjoyed yet. Thank you for the review, interview and giveaway chance!
I enjoy strong females characters when their faith & trust is in the Lord, when He is the source of their strength and they realize that. I love that this review said this book “was tidy in the details, great in the characters and the suspense is some of the best…” Sounds like a great book!
We need more stories like this, especially for thisbyounger generation. Strong characters whose strength comes from the Lord.
I think it takes a strong female character to hold up a suspense novel. A shrinking violet would make a poor lead in suspense. Thank you formthe review & giveaway opportunity.
A strong woman character doesn’t have to be domineering but she won’t stand being walked over either. I like a woman (as with a man) that will stand up for what’s right or to right an injustice, fight for what they think is worth fighting over and one that is willing to help the underdog. Call it spunk if you will but it adds to a story – one that I love to read.
Thanks for the information on “Mojave Rescue” and your great review which reaffirms to be that this is bound to be a wonderful book to read.
I like strong female characters that use both their brain and physical strength.
I like strong female characters because a woman should be complete in herself first and then she can be a strong partner. Everyone needs to learn to be independent. Then you can CHOOSE to be a partner, to compliment your mate.
I like that a female lead character can be smart as well as strong and committed to doing the right thing even when it’s difficult. The woman doesn’t have to “kick butt” but I admire them when they can at least defend themselves.
Thanks for the information on Mojave Rescue. Best wishes as it reaches a broad audience.
