"End Game" by Rachel Dylan -- Book Review & Giveaway

About the Book


When elite members of the military are murdered on the streets of Washington, DC, FBI Special Agent Bailey Ryan and NCIS Special Agent Marco Agostini must work together to bring the perpetrator to justice. Unfortunately, all evidence points to a Navy SEAL sniper whom Bailey refuses to believe is guilty.

When Bailey and Marco start to connect the dots between the victims, including a link to a powerful defense contractor, they wonder if there's a deeper cover-up at play. Then Bailey is targeted, and it becomes clear that someone is willing to kill to keep their dark secrets.

With the stakes getting higher by the moment in a twisted conspiracy, there's a rush against the clock to determine whom they can really trust. As allies turn to enemies, the biggest secret yet to be uncovered could be the end of all of them.


My Thoughts 

"End Game" is the first book in the Capitol Intrigue series. It was an entertaining read that kept me turning pages. I loved the action and twisting plot that kept me guessing what was going on right up until the very end. It isn't often that I don't figure out the mystery before the book tells you what is going on, so it was nice to be surprised. I found the book to be well written, with a nice pace. Faith was a big part of both Marco's and Bailey's lives and how they dealt with situations they found themselves in. I liked the secondary characters and look forward to getting to know them more as the series progresses.

"Breach of Trust" by Rachel Dylan --Book Review

About the Book

Corporate litigator Mia Shaw suffers the shock of her life when she finds her colleague and friend brutally murdered. Grief-stricken and furious, Mia vows that she will do anything to seek justice and make the killer pay. 

The man accused of the murder is a friend of security tech guru Noah Ramirez, but the evidence just doesn't add up. To save his former ATF partner, Noah needs to convince Mia that the real killer is still on the loose.

Mia soon has more than the criminal prosecution to worry about, however. She is tasked with taking over her friend's last case and learns he was hiding secrets about his client. She thinks she may have stumbled upon corporate espionage that has turned deadly, but she has no idea of the danger involved. Her only ally is Noah, despite their difference of opinion on the homicide case. Can he win Mia over to his side and protect her from ever-growing threats?


My Thoughts

"Breach of Trust" is the third book in the Atlanta Justice series and tells the story of Mia Shaw and Noah Ramirez, the last pair of two sets of friends to get together. I enjoyed getting to read their story and to get to know them each better. I liked Mia's strength, but also her struggles to deal with things and figure out her new faith. Noah was steady and dependable. Their discussions about faith were well placed and fit the flow of the story. The mystery in the book kept me guessing as I only figured the obvious answer was too obvious, but didn't know how things really went down. I liked how the series wrapped up and tied all together. I look forward to reading Rachel Dylan's next series.

"Lone Witness" by Rachel Dylan -- Book Review

About the Book

When prosecutor Sophie Dawson is the lone witness to a gang-related double homicide, her world is turned upside down. Private security guard Cooper Knight is hired to protect Sophie from the gang, but shes more concerned about prosecuting her latest case than the threat to her life. Sophie wants to stand for whats right, but can Cooper keep her safe?






My Thoughts

"Lone Witness" is the second book in the Atlanta Justice series. The first book introduced a group of three women who were friends and a group of three men that were friends. It also told the story of one of the guys and one of the girls falling in love. "Lone Witness" is the story of another of the women and another one of the men. (Book three will tell the story of the remaining guy and girl). So it may help to read "Deadly Proof" before reading "Lone Witness". I liked Sophie and her determination to prove she isn't just using her family money to get ahead in life. Cooper was someone I'd like to know. There were two "reveals" in the story about what was going on. I was right about one (the later one) and totally thrown by the other (the first one revealed). There was suspense and drama and I wasn't sure what was going to happen next. I am always frustrated by the underhanded/shady dealings that go on behind the scenes and root for justice to prevail. I look forward to reading the last book in the series.
