Sooooo Good!!! This is amazing!

This is a series I never tire of. The ensemble cast is like watching an episode of Friends with a lot more spice and a bit of suspense. From the first chapter of Chain Reaction, I could not put it down. The kidnapping of JJ is front and center and it's a tough case for Brantley and Baz. Emotionally involved makes it that much harder, but everyone is on the case and are determined to find her.JJ is one strong woman. With all she has been through, she certainly didn't need this added to her history and the culprit is crazy. Did I say crazy? INSANE!!! Plus we have wedding planning going on, a newly forming romance for Slade and babies! I loved this book. It pushes all the buttons, with thrilling suspense, unsuspecting circumstances, spicy scenes, troubled hearts and love!! I cannot get enough! Make sure to start this series from the beginning. You will love it!

Tor Thom and Fiona Clare continue their narration of the series and they are phenomenal. Thom keeps his voices for all the characters, making my ears happy to know who is speaking. His choices of voice is particular and fits every one of the many men in this series. I love his accents! Clare shows off her talent with the stubbornness of JJ and the many voices of her kidnapper. I loved how she got into their heads and found their true emotions. This is a fantastic listen and will be enjoyed after you go grab it!

Please New Narrator!

Love this series of Nicole's, but please could we have a new narrator!! Thor Tom has a lovely deep voice but he makes every guy sound like their talking with gravel in their throats.

Gripping

After the ending of the previous book, I could not wait to dive into Chain Reaction. One of their own (Jessica James aka JJ) is missing and Brantley and the team are frantic to find her.

All hands from the Off The Books Task Force and Coyote Ridge are focussed on finding the missing woman. Finding JJ safe is only the start for the team. They need to track down those who took her and seek explanations.

There is a lot going on in Chain Reaction so be prepared. It is a fast paced, emotional story that will draw you in and hold you captive. Each time I read a book in this series I think I have found my favourite. Yet again Nicole Edwards has delivered an entertaining, well written character driven story that will reel you in.

This story will keep you on the edge of your seat whilst reading. The narration by Thor Thom and Fiona Claire was spot on. Their voices are easy to listen to and diverse.
