Description

Liliana Hart is a New York Times, USA Today, and Publisher's Weekly Bestselling Author of more than 40 titles. After starting her first novel her freshman year of college, she immediately became addicted to writing and knew she'd found what she was meant to do with her life. She has no idea why she majored in music.Since self-publishing in June of 2011, Liliana has sold more than 3 million ebooks and been translated into eight languages. She's appeared at #1 on lists all over the world and all three of her series have appeared on the New York Times list. Liliana is a sought after speaker and she's given keynote speeches and self-publishing workshops to standing-room-only crowds from California to New York to London.xa0Liliana can almost always be found at her computer writing or on the road giving workshops for SilverHart International, a company she founded with her partner, Scott Silverii, where they provide law enforcement, military, and fire resources for writers so they can write it right. Liliana is a recent transplant to Southern Louisiana, where she's getting used to the humidity and hurricane season, and plotting murders (for her books, of course).Find out more about Liliana at lilianahart.com

Continuity issues

I really liked the first book in this series. The second was okay, but it really bothered me that so many things contradicted the first book, like the author forgot what she had written. (The town all of the sudden hating JJ when in book one they were trying to set her up with a husband and seemed caring for the most part. JJ finding out Mooney really killed her parents but that was all forgotten after book one. The list could go on...)

This book was even worse when it came to continuity errors. I'm pretty surprised no one else has mentioned it in the reviews. Am I really the only person who wondered at the HUGE change in the story of why Jack left SWAT? In the first book it says his last op with SWAT was drug related and he was the only one of his 7 man team to survive--that he took 3 bullets during that and barely lived and decided to resign. The story was the same in book two. Now all of the sudden, it was a bank heist and only one of his ten man team died?? And the whole plot of this book is based on that!

JJ was more tolerable in this book. I liked her a lot in book one but she drove me nuts in the second book. Although this one happened only a few weeks after book two, all of the sudden she's mostly over almost being killed when it totally overtook her whole life in the second book?

I probably won't read book four, whenever it comes out. And I'm pretty irritated that I paid $4.99 for books two and three. I think the author needs to start keeping better notes so she stops contradicting herself when she continues the series...

Be prepared to stay up all night reading this one.

Love this series. Only problem is - putting it down when you get started reading it. Entertaining. Fast moving. Love the characters. And love the small town vibes.
