Kate Reus & Sophie Eastlake are awesome

This is the 6th book of Katie Reus and I can't get enough of her books. Sophie Eastlake does an incredible job of narrating ... it's a win-win!

EXCELLENT BOOK

This was my first book from author. It was captivating, good plot and loved the steamy scenes.

Excellent book

Just what I needed to listen to over the break. Smart, occasionally funny thriller with the best narration.

Excellent action packed first in series

Would you consider the audio edition of Resurrection to be better than the print version?

Actually yes I read the kindle edition of this book and loved it but this brought all the action, and grit to life

What other book might you compare Resurrection to and why?

I think any suspense book with military / swat etc type would be similar but no two books are the same.

What about Sophie Eastlake’s performance did you like?

I love every book this narrator does.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Well some parts I wanted to scream and some parts I was laughing.

Any additional comments?

Excellent beginning to a new series. Loved it !

Awesome Beginning to a new Series!

I really enjoyed listening this book. It is the first book in a new romantic suspense series by Katie Reus. The plot is well written and developed. The characters are interesting and have a well-balanced interaction. I would recommend this book to any listening who enjoys romantic suspense. Sophie Eastlake does an awesome job with the narration. She seems to make you a part of the story -- I seemed to feel what the characters were feeling at any given point in the story. There were no noticeable skips or flaws in the narration. I listened to this book while driving. I was able to pick up - where the story left off - without any issues or missing anything each time I listened in the car.

If there is one thing I love about any Katie Reus book is that they are reliably really good. She is my go to author. Love the new series and I can't wait to see what is next in this series.

Hot romance paired with dangerous suspense!

Her time was running out….

The tidings of a new series from Katie Reus is exciting news indeed! Resurrection by Katie Reus marks the impressive debut of Katie’s new Redemption Harbor romantic suspense series. As all of Katie’s stories do, Resurrection drew me in from the start. Since this is the first book in the series, it also introduces the cast of characters many of whom are friends who have known each other since childhood. There’s unquestionably a score between Colt and his father that I hope Katie will delve into in future installments too. This is primarily the story of CIA operatives Colt Stuart and Skye Arévalo with a second couple figuring strongly, ex-linebacker Mercer and his wife, Mary Anne, an oncologist. The story is aptly told from their four viewpoints so you get into each of their heads at the appropriate times.

I’m not going to go into the story… You can read the blurb if you want a quick synopsis. Believe me, having this story unfold as you read is a breathtaking experience that you won’t soon forget.

The characters are likeable and come across as totally realistic. Colt has been mourning Skye’s death from an explosion while she was on an undercover operation for six long months when he shockingly comes face-to-face with her while rescuing his friend, Mary Anne, from a Mexican cartel. For Colt and Skye, this story is a second chance for them to connect. They are perfectly paired and have a combustible chemistry. Their sexy times are steamy with a capital S. Both Colt and Skye are my heroes: loyal, smart, tough and caring. I especially like that Colt wasn’t threatened in the least by Skye’s badassery and that she is comfortable in her own skin.

Mary Anne had been reported dead with a team of medical personnel who had been horrifically gunned down two months ago. Ends up that she was the lone survivor… Mary Anne was everyone’s friend and Mercer’s everything.

The cast of other characters are just as phenomenal and incredibly drawn. I can’t wait to read their stories in the following books!

I listened to the audio which was expertly voiced by Sophie Eastlake. Sophie never fails to produce a flawless and polished performance and Resurrection is not an exception. She voices multiple characters consistently differentiating between them. Both her male and female voices sound genuine and she exudes all the proper emotions. Her voice is crystal clear and easy to understand. I love to listen to her narrations as they always make my listening experience a joy.

I am addicted to Katie’s books. Resurrection is hair-raising and packed with passion and danger from the start to the finish. The romance and the suspense are heart and soul intertwined – one never overshadows the other. The surprising twist at the end left me appreciating karma and grinning like a Cheshire cat. There’s no cliffhanger ending, but readers will undeniably be enticed to pick up the sequel, which is thankfully already available. Savage Rising is already queued on my phone ready for me to hit play! If you enjoy hot romance paired with edge-of-your-seat-suspense-which-never-lets-up in an action-packed, fast-paced adventure, I highly recommend that you check out Resurrection soon!!!!!

WOW PERFECT!

Who was your favorite character and why?

All of the characters were my favorite.

Any additional comments?

I can hardly wait for the next installment. This promises to be an incredible ride.

Second Chance

Skye Arevalo was a dedicated and deadly CIA agent until she faked her own death. She was forced to betray her principles by a man greedy for power. He threatened to kill Colt Stuart, the man she loved. Keeping under the radar is important if Skye is to stay alive. When she learns that Mary Grace, Colt's dear friend, is being held prisoner by a drug cartel leader, she decides to rescue her to honor her love for Colt. What she doesn't expect is to see the angry man she lost her heart to. Can they find their way back to each other after her deception. Skye is a powerful and feisty woman. She's deadly and determined to accomplish her plan. I like a woman who can stand up for herself. Colt is an Alpha protector who has spent his life fighting to make the world a better place. He wants to make things safe for his love. The chemistry between Skye and Colt is powerful and sensual. I wanted them to put the past behind them and find their HEA. The secondary characters are strong personalities that add so much to the story. I want to know more about them. Resurrection is a suspenseful story that has unexpected twists. I couldn't stop reading until I knew what happened. Katie Reus has written a powerful story which is a great beginning to this new series. An added bonus is Sophie Eastlake does a wonderful job with her narration. She makes these characters come to life. I'm looking forward to more stories in the Redemption Harbor series.
