Kathy Bennett

"A Deadly Blessing" by Kathy Bennett is an intriguing book that I could not stop reading once I started.

There is a lot of action and suspense packed into this novel, and the writing is good. This story is packed with strong female characters. There are some twists in here that took me by complete surprise.

Reading "A Deadly Blessing" was like being on a high speed car chase where you could not loose the perpetrator or else...!

The ending is sad and at the same time uplifting.

I look forward to reading more from author Kathy Bennett.… (más)

Los Angeles Police Officer Jade Donovan is being hunted. There's the lieutenant who's out to get her, the psycho who's stalking her and leaving dead roses at her door, but most frightening of all, she's been assigned to partner with her son's father, Mac Stryker. Mac doesn't know he's Donnie's dad, and Jade will stop at nothing to prevent him from finding out and possibly taking away her son.

There are two story lines that merge as the story unfolds. This was more a romance than a mystery. It was predictable in places .… (más)

Jade Donovan is a training officer for the LAPD who is being stalked by an unknown enemy who leaves dead roses for her. It started with twelve roses, then each day another box arrives with one fewer rose. She fears what will happen when the roses stop coming. She has a four-year-old son who depends on her. Then her professional life is complicated by the return to the LAPD of Mac Stryker, her former alcoholic training officer and Donnie's biological father. Now the tables are turned.

Mac Stryker lost his job five years ago for being drunk on the job after losing his wife and daughter to carjackers. Now a recovering alcoholic, he is rehired but has to go through training under the guidance of his former student Jade Donovan. He still finds her attractive. For years, he's dreamed of making love to Jade, not realizing the dream is a memory.

When Mac figures out Jade is in danger, he springs into action to protect her and Donnie, putting her heart in danger, too.

This is an exciting fast-paced romantic thriller written by a former LAPD officer. The characters are sympathetic and the details of police work authentic. I will read more books by Kathy Bennett.… (más)
