Ratings and reviews

I have been so behind getting through my TBR, I wished I would have read Five a lot sooner! Holy Sh*% what did I just read? Five blew me away and had me on the edge the whole time. Jane Blythe's Count to Ten series are eerily intense and I love every story she brings with these series. I have been following this series and I feel that we are at the midpoint of where it needs to be. The men are back with their significant others and are living a nightmare all over again. One of my favorite couples are having problems and I am rooting for them 110%! I am nervous that it might be too late for them though. The woman have their battles and scars. Jane still makes them strong willed and when the time comes, they will fight to the end. Five made my heart cry for the new characters that we were introduced to. I was hoping we would get closure, but it looks like there is still so much more that needs to be told. Five had me holding my breath and bite down my nails. Only Jane can bring this kind of story that has me begging for more! If you have not read Five yet, you need to ASAP!

Is he really the kidnapper or a caring parent? This is the question of the day as the detectives find themselves involved with Laura and the girl that approached her. As they ask questions and investigate the accusations they also have to deal with Sopie and Laura's health. Stuck in the hospital while everything happens around them it's gonna be a long night. Another case which this author has multiple sub stories going on and Ryan and X working hard to find answers. Tons of action and intrigue, flash backs to fill in the gaps keep you turning the pages and hungry for more.
