The Heart of a Hero - Book Review



 Oh, my heart! Susan May Warren does it again with another Rescue Team book. This one has a heroine who is a Pediatric Heart Surgeon and takes place in beautiful Key West. Although, with a Category 4 hurricane, don’t expect a leisure beach read! This story is non-stop action with deadly near misses and a hero who inspires. I love these retired Navy Seal stories. Such bravery. Don’t miss Dr. Aria Sinclair’s and Jake Silver’s whirlwind of a story! Batten down the hatches and get lost in a great book! 

The Key to Everything - Book Review

 


Nostalgic sentiment fills the pages of Valerie Fraser Luesse's The Key to Everything. I felt like I was there through the author’s vivid descriptions and active voice. Word War II stories are always an intriguing read, but this story is in the aftermath of the war and touches on the emotional state of many people, particularly the young ones who didn’t experience the war firsthand but only through their older family members. The Key to Everything is told from the perspective of a teenager who had to figure out why his father was so different after the war, as well as find his own place in the world. And what a pretty world the setting of the story took place in. It was a virtual vacation for me as I read along. Great read!

The Way of the Brave Book Review


The Way of the Brave by Susan May Warren
Publisher: Revell

A gripping search and rescue book that shows the relentless conflicts of nature that must be dealt with, even while personal conflicts vie for attention. Susan May Warren is a master at emotion between characters and doesn't disappoint with Orion and Jenny. Their wounds are painful but survival is critical. The mountain climbing component was interesting, but parts were confusing for someone unfamiliar. Still a good book full of adventure and life-threatening danger.
