Hostage Taker by Stefanie Pintoff
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Eve Rossi is a hostage negotiator for the FBI who is currently on hiatus after tragedy hits home. She is suddenly summoned back into action, and in order to be successful, she re-enlists the help of her team (called the Vidocq Unit). Mace, Garcia, Haddox, and Eli work with her to figure out who this Hostage Taker is and save innocent lives.

I loved the characters in this book. They are all ex-cons who have been recruited by the FBI to use their skills to catch other bad guys. There was plenty of action and twists, and I never could figure out who the Hostage Taker was until the very end. I can't wait for the next installment!

All Roads Lead to Hades by K.S. Morgan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I received an ebook copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Jamie is living with a horrible past--his entire family was killed in front of his eyes when he was only five years old. The murderer was never found, and since then, he has been haunted by the man who continues to attack the people he loves. Then, a man named Kyle comes out of nowhere and offers Jamie a safe haven. The two grow closer, but Kyle maintains some secrets about his past...

I enjoyed this book and I couldn't put it down! There was a lot of suspense, and I could never figure Kyle out until it is revealed at the end. There was a lot of disturbing content, but I thought it was believable and I never thought it was weird. I would have liked to see a little more character development as we seemed to jump into the action almost right away. Kyle is kind of creepy, and yet Jamie apparently puts a lot of trust into him very quickly. Also, scenes like the Trick-Or-Treating was so cute I would have liked to read more. Overall, I really liked it and I'm looking forward to more from the author.
