Synopsis:

MERCY RIDGE

 

A deathbed confession. A decades-old secret. A mountain that holds the answers--and danger closing in.

When intelligence analyst Sarah Ellison learns of her grandfather's deathbed confession connected to her brother's murder, she's determined to protect her remaining family. After further investigation, she discovers the disclosed information points to a decades-old government secret buried deep in the Cascade Mountains. With this knowledge, she looks for a guide who knows the terrain like the back of their hand.

After his father's death in a tragic mountain accident, former Navy SEAL Ryder Goodwin no longer guides for the family business. At first, Ryder refuses to help Sarah, but he sees the trouble chasing her and can't stand by while someone brings danger to his small-town mountain community.

Ryder and Sarah gear up to climb the mountain in a race against time and a looming storm. When the danger escalates, their search for answers shifts to a survival mission. Their only chance to make it through involves trusting each other and confronting the truth no one wants them to find.

This gripping romantic-suspense thriller set in the Pacific Northwest from USA Today bestselling author Elizabeth Goddard is a series opener that will sweep you away in a rush of adrenaline.

My Take: This was a pretty good start to this series. There is murder, espionage, Nazi war planes, CIA and FBI, mountain climbing and snow and all the things that go along with that. THe farther you read the more the thrills and twists and turns. I have never had a desire to go mountain climbing in the snow and this book further reinforced that feeling but if you don't have that feeling go for it. This looks like a great series. I would recommend this book if you like thrilling suspenseful books with a little bit of romance.

TWILIGHT TACTICS

by Lynette Eason

August 3 - 28, 2026 Virtual Book Tour

Synopsis:

SOLDIERS IN SHADOWS

 

He came to protect a witness. She came to teach survival skills. Now they're targets with an enemy who won't let either of them walk away.

FBI agent Sully Sullivan arrives at Broken Chains Ranch with Ollie Callahan--a foster teen and sole witness to a mob hit. The ranch, started by Sully's cousin to provide a trauma recovery facility for veterans, should be a place he can keep Ollie safe until the trial. But what was meant as a peaceful haven becomes a battleground when armed attackers surround the property.

Survival expert Elena Thompson teaches wilderness skills at the ranch and coaches Ollie in self-defense. As the series of attacks on the ranch escalates into a full siege, the question becomes who the attackers are after: Ollie, the young witness? Or Elena, with her mysterious past? With communications down and help out of reach, Sully and Elena fight to keep everyone alive as secrets and danger close in.

A gripping romantic suspense thriller from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Lynette Eason, full of action and danger and set on a remote ranch. Forced proximity, surprising twists, and a race against tech-savvy enemies make this a pulse-pounding read for fans of Irene Hannon, Dani Pettrey, and Elizabeth Goddard.

My Take: This is a great start to a new series by Lynette Eason. I haven't read to many books by Lynette but after reading this book I think that will change. This book has federal agents, preppers, the mob and a scared teenager that witnessed a murder. It also has some caring people that run a ranch to help military vets overcome PTSD. There is a lot of action and some betrayal enough to keep you turning pages well into the early morning. I would highly recommend this book and will be keeping my eye out for the next book in the series.
