MY REVIEW

Forever Alexa by Cate Beauman is a knock your socks off, tighten your seatbelt ride.

Right off the bat, I know something bad is going to happen to Alexa and I hate it for her. Who will help her when the cops fail? Ethan Security and a lost love.

In typical Romantic Suspense fashion, Alexa has to get herself front and center…deep in trouble, unable and unwilling to wait for someone else to do the dirty work. Even though I know the scenario well, because this is my favorite reading, I gasp, cringe and want to reach through the glass of my Kindle, grab her by the arm and hold her back., yelling, telling her it’s too damn dangerous.

I hate that women are weaker than men, but unless we have special skills or super powers, we are at the monsters mercy.

When do you know the risk is too great? When do you know it’s time to stop and move on? When we have the answers. I would want Alexa at my side in times of trouble, that’s for sure.

I do become frustrated with the back and forth, seesawing, of romantic suspense relationships, but that is the nature of the beast.

The point of view shifts from one character’s perspective to another, from Alexa’s to Jackson’s. And I do love the characters. A woman with the strength to do what needs to be done, not waiting for someone else to do it. A man that dares to show emotion, learning that it is not a weakness but a strength.

I am on pins and needles, waiting, feeling like more bad is coming their way on each and every page. I have an overwhelming sense of danger…I get Alexa’s motivation, but damn…frying pan to fire.

GOODREADS BLURB

First grade teacher and single mother Alexa Harris is no stranger to struggle, but for once, things are looking up. The school year is over and the lazy days of summer are here. Mini-vacations and relaxing twilight barbeques are on the horizon until Alexa’s free-spirited younger sister vanishes.

Ransom calls and death threats force Alexa and her young daughter to flee their quiet home in Maryland. With nowhere else to turn, Alexa seeks the help of Jackson Matthews, Ethan Cooke Security’s Risk Assessment Specialist and the man who broke her heart.

With few leads to follow and Abby’s case going cold, Alexa must confess a shocking secret if she and Jackson have any hope of saving her sister from a hell neither could have imagined.

  1. Romantic-suspense is my favorite genre to read and write, but similarities that spans a specific author’s books do get on my nerves. Especially one in particular where the hero comes in right at the end to help the heroine and to save the day, or assist her in saving the day…and she’s a cop, too.

    I like to make my heroines tough. 🙂

    • I know what you mean, Chrys. That’s why I space them out. Most books have a formula and it’s all about the writing, and those twists and turns that make it special. I like my heroines tough too and I have my go to authors for those deep dark suspense thrillers. I used to be annoyed at all the genres subdivisions, but I get it now. I see why suspense and thrillers have been subdivided. It’s like mysteries and cozy mysteries. Quite a difference to me.

  2. Back when I read nothing but romantic suspense, I would have snapped this up. And it does still sound good. Putting your hand through your Kindle Screen? I can so relate to that!

    • Thanks, Nadene. I am loving it too. I am working my way through the complete series and lovin’ every minute of it.
