Ratings and reviews

I received a complimentary copy of this book and I have also purchased a copy as well. This is a fast paced suspenseful romance. Benning Reeves is a building inspector and a single dad to 6 year old twins son, Owen and daughter, Olivia. Benning faces every parent's nightmare when his twins go missing. Even though he was told not to call in the authorities, he knows the one person who can help him recover his children. A woman from his past. A woman who left him years ago in the middle of the night, Ana Sophia Ramirez. They met while she was working on a missing person's case. When the young woman was found dead, Ana left. To help overcome her guilt, she buried her feelings for Benning by leaving and immersing herself in her job as a FBI agent trained to find missing people. I loved the plot and how the author just wrenched a great deal of emotion from me. These characters just felt so much more life-like. I could really see these scenes coming to life (especially how she describes the action scenes). They were intense! It is a good thing I don't bite my fingernails as I wouldn't have any left. This is the third book of the series but can be read as a stand-alone. Other characters of the TCD make multiple appearances throughout this story. I love the fact that this was written in my favorite dual POV format. Reading the characters' thoughts really help me to connect to them better. I can more thoroughly understand their conversation and actions so much better. If you like a fast paced suspenseful mystery with added murder in your romance, then look no further than this one.

Midnight Abduction by Nichole Severn Tactical Crime Division (TCD) #3 Benning Reeves has had the worst day of his life when he realizes one of his twins is in the hospital and the other is being held hostage by a killer. All he has to do is not contact the FBI or police and return a skull to the madman and all will be well…or will it really? I mean, who can trust a madman killer? So, he reaches out to the woman he knew and loved seven years ago – an FBI agent with the specialty of finding those who have been taken. And, moments after Agent Ramirez arrives the fireworks begin. From that point on it is a life or death situation that includes, knives, guns, crowbars, axes, deceit, bombs, fisticuffs, psychological warfare and a w hole lot more. Will the TCD team win or will the bad guy get away with…murder, kidnapping and more? What I liked: * Agent Ramirez: a tough cookie that has sealed off her emotions in order to focus her attention on her job. This case may crack her protective shell as she deals with the man she once loved. * Benning: a good man, great father, a person who does what is right, and totally willing to do what it takes to get his children back…and woo Ana again. * The pace and action * The writing * The amazing recuperative powers of the two main characters they seem to have terminator healing abilities (have to suspend medical reality a bit to believe all they endure and are able to come out still standing) * Owen and Olivia: twins that were interesting young people – perhaps geniuses with their reading and other abilities or perhaps just written older than most normal six year old children really are. * The HEA for the two main characters * That those who were evil were unveiled and justice was served. What I did not like: * The bad guys Did I enjoy this book? Yes Would I read more by this author? Yes Thank you to NetGalley and Harlequin Intrigue for the ARC – This is my honest review. 4 Stars

Midnight Abduction is an action-packed romantic suspense by Nichole Severn. Ms. Severn has provided readers with a well-written book populated with a fantastic cast of characters. When Benning's twins are kidnapped there's only one person he trusts to get them back. Ana couldn't refuse the assignment to get the kidnapper that took Benning's kids, even though it would be an uncomfortable situation. Benning and Ana's story is loaded with drama, bits of humor, sizzle, action and suspense. I enjoyed this nail-biter and look forward to my next book by Nichole Severn. Midnight Abduction is book 3 of the Tactical Crime Division Series but can be read as a standalone. This is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book that I received from Bookfunnel. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

About the author

Nichole Severn writes romantic suspense with strong heroines, heroes who dare challenge them, and a hell of a lot of guns. When she’s not writing, she’s injuring herself running and practicing yoga.
