FALCON by Ronie Kendig, Reviewed by Kim

 

After reading Raptor 6 and Hawk, I was really looking forward to reading Falcon which is Sal’s story. I loved that the whole team is in this story as well as Candyman (Tony) and Timbrel from Beowulf! I LOVED their story.


Falcon focuses on finding the mole who has been sabotaging the team since book one and we also get to find out just what happened in Sal and Cassie’s past. And boy, what a past it is! The action, twists and turns, and surprises in this story will keep you on the edge of your seat and turning the pages long into the night! I mean there are some seriously jaw dropping things that happen in this story. So. Good!!!

I also really love how Ms. Kendig tackles hard subjects like PTSD and guilt and what they can do to you. My heart literally broke for Sal

while reading this story. I love how Ms. Kendig’s characters are real and flawed, and oh so wonderful! 

Another excellent read! 5 stars!

BackCover Blurb:
Special Forces operator Salvatore “Falcon” Russo vowed to never again speak to or trust Lieutenant Cassandra Walker after a tragedy four years ago. But as Raptor closes in on the cyber terrorists responsible for killing two of their own, Sal must put his life—and the lives of his teammates—in her hands.

Despite his anger, Cassie is ill-prepared for his resistance and the fallout when she must protect the one asset who can end the attacks.

As allies become enemies and hostiles become unlikely partners, Raptor fights for its very existence.

TITANIS by Ronie Kendig, Reviewed by Kim


Wow!! I am in awe at how much Ronie Kendig has packed into this novella! I loved every page of this story from that awesome beginning to the very last page! Titanis (Eamon) is now my favorite hero from this series! I mean if that initial scene doesn’t hook you, I don’t know what will!

I cannot fully explain how much I love this novella! It has everything I look for in a story. There’s edge of your seat action, romance, secrets, intrigue and did I say romance? Ellis and Eamon have the best chemistry! I love how sweet Ellis is and how she slowly brakes through Eamon’s barriers. This is just a perfect read! Excellent! All the stars!

BackCover Blurb:
Never Again.
A vow written in the blood of the fallen is threatened in Australia’s rugged Top End.

Eamon “Titanis” Straider left the military and civilization behind after betrayal cost the life of a teammate. Living on this super yacht, the ViCross, Eamon reluctantly agrees to host an event for his parents, who are part of the Australian political machine. When an attractive woman arrives with his mother, Eamon is furious—and determined to find out what she is hiding.

Lady Ellis Rostov-Leclair has never felt so threatened as she does by the infamous “Beast of Cape York,” a man notorious for removing people—by force if necessary—from his yacht. His uncanny perception endangers not only her reason for being aboard the ship, but a secret she’s held for twenty years.

When the yacht is seized by a man with one goal: make those responsible for his brother’s death pay—the Beast of Cape York must live up to his name and protect those under his charge, or die trying.

SOUL RAGING by Ronie Kendig, Reviewed by Kim

Wow! This series is one roller coaster ride from start to finish! Right when you think you might figure out what is going to happen, something totally different happens-something that you totally did not expect! Like it wasn’t even in the realm of possibilities!
As is usual with Ronie Kendig, this story made my heart race, I laughed, I cried, and during one scene, I literally felt claustrophobic! I basically loved everything about this story - the team banter, the nonstop action, the characters- is it weird to miss fictional characters?- the perfect ending, and Leif and his relationship with Iskra. My out loud thought as I read the last word of this story was, “No! I want more!” I could really just see this series going on and on! Cell really needs his own story! Soul Raging is definitely in my top reads of 2020. 

Ronie Kendig is brilliant. I’m seriously sad that this series is over! If you haven’t read any of her stories yet, I urge you to give her a try. You will not regret it!
*I bought this book. It has a light faith element. 
 
BackCover Blurb:
Sometimes, the only hope is the enemy.

Leif Metcalfe is done waiting for answers and seizes control, a move that comes with a high price and a deadly risk: teaming up with the enemy. He can only hope that what he uncovers will heal the wounds he's inflicted on those he loves.

Iskra Todorova believes Leif is on a collision course with death and knows firsthand the irrevocable cost of that path to the soul. While trying to protect her daughter and intervene with Leif, Iskra is forced to set her sights on the man behind the evil organization ArC--Ciro Veratti.

Torn apart by injuries and opposing views on how to handle Leif's act of treachery, team Reaper hunts one of their own. The only thing they agree on is not stopping but starting the final battle prophesied in the Book of the Wars.

RAPTOR 6 by Ronie Kendig, Reviewed by Kim Ann

If you’ve read any of my past reviews of Ronie Kendig books, you know she is my absolute favorite author. Her writing is so good, so addictive - I mean seriously hard to put down- and you can feel the heart she puts into each one of her stories. They are always original, creative, and just plain brilliant. Raptor 6 is an adrenaline pumping story from start to finish! I loved this team and can’t wait to read the rest of the stories in this series.

Dean Watters is the epitome of a hero! He is brave, loyal, strong, always does the right thing, and he’s gorgeous! 😉 Zahrah is one of my favorite female characters. I loved her heart and her loyalty to the people she loved. Parts of this story tore my heart to pieces - I may have even cried, but as I knew she would, Ronie Kendig nicely put it all back together again before the story ended.

I cannot wait to start Hawk’s story!
*I bought this book and was under not obligation to provide a favorable review. Faith thread is #2 - light. 



BackCover Blurb:
Captain Dean Watters keeps his mission and his team in the forefront of his laser-like focus. So when Dean’s mission and team are threatened, his Special Forces training kicks into high gear. Failing to stop hackers from stealing national security secrets from the military’s secure computers and networks isn’t an option.

Zahrah Zarrick is a missionary teacher to Afghan children in Mazar-e Sharif. And a target. When Zahrah is captured because of her expertise in quantum cryptology, compromising the US military, Dean is forced to crack the lockbox around his heart—a move that might come at the highest cost.
