After faking her own death, Skye Arevalo, CIA operative,
takes a chance in the rescue of someone who was important to
the man she "died" to protect. Almost to safety with the
kidnapped doctor, Mary Grace Jackson things go haywire but
they persevere. Out of nowhere, she comes face-to-face with
Colt Stuart, and he realizes she isn't a mirage but her
RESURRECTION means he wasted time mourning her death.
Colt thought Skye had died. He mourned her and was still
mourning her and seeing her alive sends him through a
cacophony of emotions. Fury, relief and love top those
feelings and after getting Mary Grace to safety they turn
back and get down to brass tacks. Skye admits that someone
close to them had blackmailed her to steal something by
threatening him and some of the people who are important to
him. Now together they must take action because he isn't
about to let her go again ... not ever!
This is the first of a new series "Redemption Harbor" by
Katie Reus and I have to say it is an amazing, adrenaline
rush of a start. Some romantic suspense books have too much
romance and not enough suspense or action, others have too
much action and suspense and not enough romance, but to me,
RESURRECTION by Ms. Reus is a perfect blend. Colt and Skye
are an amazing couple and I enjoyed getting to know them as
they worked to remove the danger to themselves and the
country. The secondary characters, who consist of the
Redemption group and, of course, various bad guys they deal
with, are amazing and realistic. Even the bad guys seemed a
little too real and scary. The dialogue and action will keep
you glued to the pages.
I got a big kick out of the quotes at the beginning of each
chapter, especially the one about the body, friend, and the
shovel. I couldn't help but laugh at that one, but the
others are tidbits of sentimental sayings that fit each
chapter perfectly. I have a personal love for books that
involve teams that feel more like family than some families
and this group has that going for them. Can't wait to learn
more about each of them and get their stories. I also just
loved the way Colt made sure the problem that came between
him and Skye would never rear its head again. Nope, sorry,
you have to read this awesome book to get the answer to that
one.
If you are looking for an action-packed storyline with bad
guys you never want to meet, good guys who aren't afraid to
do what they have to do to protect those they love, topped
with a sweet and very steamy romance then RESURRECTION is
what you need.
