Shelby Nichols is an average woman who is married to the only guy she ever fell for. Her life is organized and predictable, revolving around her husband and two children. All that changes the day she stops at the grocery store for some carrots. As the cashier rings up her purchases, a gunman is busy robbing the bank inside the store. When a customer grabs the robber's mask, he is shot and everyone runs for cover. Everyone except Shelby, who finds herself face to face with the killer.

Being an undercover poison taster for the rich and famous might sound glamorous, but for Isobel Avery it means stomaching bad clients and even worse coffee. The one side of the job that lives up to expectations is the money. Which is just as well for Izzy, since she needs an awful lot of it. Who knew when she made a lifelong commitment to a man that it would be one year living with him and the rest of her life paying for it?

Another adventure of the mind reading soccer mom!
DEADLY ESCAPE is Book 11 in the Shelby Nichols Adventures series of light and fun suspense thrillers by author Colleen Helme. Actually this novel is heavier/more suspenseful than any other novels in the series. I've reviewed the first 10 books in the series and rated each of them 5 stars. DEADLY ESCAPE may be the best yet. For the most part the author tells her stories in the first person of protagonist Shelby Nichols; narrator Wendy Tremont King is Shelby's voice and she is wonderful.
Colleen Helme deserves a lot more attention as a very talented author. This series reminds me of the Miss Fortune Mysteries series by Jana DeLeon. I RECOMMEND the Shelby Nichols Adventures series without reservation.

High Octane adventure with Shelby Nichols-Awesome!
The audible version of Deadly Escape, the 11th volume of the Shelby Nichols adventures was without doubt the best one to date.
As I have mentioned previously, the narration by Wendy Tremont King has literally embodied Shelby and cohorts, and to me Wendy IS Shelby Nichols.
Wendy has continuously improved over the volumes that she has narrated. There were many subtle nuances in and variations in the voicing of various characters and their roles in this book, and it really came to the fore in Deadly Escape and made listening to the story all the more realistic. An example of this is Josh, Shelby’s son, sounding like Chris, but younger, and more boyish. There were real differences that you could hear between Uncle Joey and Ramos, Jackie and Shelby, and other male and female characters. That’s hard to pull off, so kudos to Wendy for making the story all that more absorbing and realistic and enjoyable!
Shelby’s in a lot of trouble in this book. Uncle Joey has personality disputes and fighting over a girl to contend with in his organization. But overshadowing all is the threat of him being killed by an old associate who has escaped out of jail and has a vendetta against Manetto, and wants him dead! At any cost! Is his innocent-seeming daughter involved too? You’ll have to listen to find out!
Literary artist Colleen Helme is not content with just one plot, subplot, or many twists, bringing characters we have known and met before into the story, including characters from Paris, a terrorist, an old love interest of Ramos and the head of the FBI. Can Shelby handle it all? Can she stay in one piece?
Things get really complicated when even her kids are involved, husband Chris is attacked, and may not survive, and Shelby is closer to death – over and over - than she has ever been before. It’s a race against the clock, a standoff with Federal Marshalls, rivalry with the Police, and Uncle Joey in the cross-hairs.
There is more threatening Shelby in this one book than I think we have ever seen before in a single Shelby Nichols adventure. From the queen of close calls, we get within seconds of death, over and over again in this incredibly high octane adventure from bestselling author Colleen Helme.
Shelby gets more mature in every volume. She is more accepting of her talents, though as she adjusts to them she seems to make more slips by answering people’s thoughts, not what they’ve said in this book. More by far than any previous volume. But she is turning her powers to her advantage and purposely using them to help more people in more ways. She is rapidly coming to accept where life has delivered her as a soccer-mom turned investigative consultant who works for both the Police AND a Mob Boss.
There’s one thing I can say with a certainty about this book: You’ll love it!
I highly recommend Deadly Escape without reservation. It works as a standalone novel, but you should definitely go ahead and treat yourself to the whole series. You’ll get to know and love (and hate) the characters and being part of Shelby’s evolution as a person in a very unique situation is worth every penny of the cost of these books. They are gripping, exciting, page-turning fun reads!

Entertaining as always!
This is my favorite series to listen to! Shelby’s adventures are comical and thrilling! I also admire her restraint and morals when it comes to resisting Ramos! The only bad thing about finish a book is the wait for the next one.

Another winner
I always enjoy listening to another one of Shelby Nichols’ adventures. Colleen Helme crafts her mysteries with laugh out loud moments and enjoyable characters. Wendy Tremont King always give great performances as she brings it all to life.

WOW ANOTHER GREAT ADVENTURE<br />
Luv the Shelby Nichols Series. The adventures are so good, listened to the whole story in one day. The books just keep getting better. Can't wait for next book.
The Narrator is great. She does great on all the character voices. You won't fall asleep.
Worth the credit or money.

Great entertainment
5* narration 4 1/2* story. Psychic, investigative, humour, probably most enjoyable for a female audience. This escapist fun continues to be the type of great entertainment that's guaranteed to get me out of any book slump. Griping action one minute and gentle humour the next with the narrator playing it for all it's worth and making a difficult job look easy. The story is brilliant either way but you are missing out if you don't get the audio on this one.

Another Brilliant Book
I absolutely love this series. This book is fun adventurous and funny. I love seeing Shelby get into dangerous situations and see Ramos pull her arse out of the fire. But Shelby is not a damsel in distress either, she is also more than capable of looking out for herself and those around her.
I have loved seeing her, Uncle Joey and Ramos grow and their close relationship develop over these past 11 books. This book is full of tense moments, danger and laughter.
As some series go on I have gotten bored and stoped reading, usually around book 7 or 8. This series has kept my interest and excitement over 11 books, that is the mark of a talented Author. I love this series and this book and I can’t wait for the next one.
