Blog Merge

I have been having the worst time logging into my craft blog so I have decided to merge the two blogs and only have to keep up with one. I hope this works out okay and I don't mess things up too badly. Lol. So from now on this will be my craft AND book blog. I will be making changes along the way to try to make it the best that I can.

A Triple Threat novel





The Triple Threat is made up of Cassidy the crime reporter, Nicole the FBI agent, and Allison the federal prosecutor. Together they help stop criminals and bring justice when laws are broken.

I had never heard of them before this book, but I so enjoyed this novel and I WILL be reading more of this series.

In this story, the Triple Threat is broken and reshaped, The crimes becomes personal. Murder and terror follow them wherever they go.They have to figure out who is behind it before it is too late.

They find a true friend in a P.I. by the name of Ophelia. Ophelia is a bit on the eccentric side, but she is very smart and she is an awesome investigator. They enlist her help because they aren't "officially" allowed on the case, but they HAVE to find the criminal.

There is great loss but also growth in this story. They learn that losing someone they love doesn't mean that there is no more good in life. It just means that life has changed. The writing is fairly graphic (but not terribly bad). I found it disturbing in a few places but I think it was mostly because I lost my Dad recently and the details brought back some unwelcome memories. But, really, what do you expect from a murder mystery? There are going to be descriptions of dead bodies! Lol.

I found this book to be very enjoyable to read and it has re-awakened my like of mysteries. I haven't read a good mystery in a long time, but I will be seeking them out after this novel.

I only have one complaint and it is not about the story but about the format. I get books for free from Book Sneeze in exchange for writing a review. I normally get the printed books but this time they didn't have one I found interesting. When I saw this one as an ebook, I decided it was worth trying. I don't have an ereader but I do have Kindle for PC so I can read ebooks on my laptop. I MUCH prefer a print book. I found it uncomfortable to have to read this on my computer. I couldn't take it with me anywhere. So I have decided I will either have to get an ereader, or just print books from Book Sneeze (which seems to be becoming more and more rare!) or just suck it up and keep reading them on my laptop. Lol. (I do wish Book Sneeze had more books in print, though.)

If you like murder mysteries then this is the book (series) for you!
