Thief in Need by Michael Dirubio

Thief in Need

By Michael Dirubio

Thief in Need by [Dirubio, Michael]
Michael Davidson is back! The gang reunites in this sequel to Thief in Law to help an old friend. When a young girl is killed, the gang is thrown into a world of high stakes and high finance in the new novel from Michael Dirubio. The crew works the stock markets in New York in this exciting thriller for all fans of heist novels all over the world.

MY REVIEW

Michael Davidson, known as the thief-in-law, is the best at what he does. So is his team. There is no heist too complicated for them to successfully pull off.  But after the snafu that happened with the last heist, Davidson and his team had retired. When NYPD Lieutenant O’Rourke calls Davidson out of the blue, he wonders why, but agrees to meet. O’Rourke knows that billionaire Matthius Restling was behind his niece’s death and needed Davidson’s help proving it. O’Rourke had helped Davidson two years before so he felt he owed him. This meant getting the team back together. But this heist will be more challenging than any they’ve done so far.


This was a great story, filled with interesting characters whose bond was unbreakable. I enjoyed all the James Bond sleuthness they had going on. The stock trading was a bit over my head, but fairly understandable. I loved the camaraderie of the group and the tight connection they shared. This isn’t the first book of this series, but it’s the first I have read. I didn’t feel like I missed anything but it did make me want to go back and read the first one. If you like books like Ocean’s 11, you’ll definitely like this one.

Enchanted Ruse Review

Enchanted Ruse (Book 2)

By Geoffrey Moehl II

Enchanted Ruse (Book 2) by [Moehl II, Geoffrey]
Four monumental hurricanes ravage the Florida coast as an equally tempestuous family drama brews. In spite of his parents' best efforts, Carter Manning's personal life spirals into an abyss of depression. His increasingly acerbic sense of humor seems to be wrecking a much hated career in car sales. Since the death of beloved his fiancée, Jennifer Ann, Carter's life hardly seems worth living anymore.

Constant and unreasonable demands for money and attention from his manipulative ex-wife, Lindsey, don't help matters. Jack, her useless but seemingly perfect boy toy, provides even more aggravation. Among the many gray clouds in Carter's life, his headstrong daughter, Ashley, stands as his one ray of sunshine. Not even Lindsey's dictatorial parenting style and attempts at keeping them apart, can break the powerful bond between the broken father and his rebellious child.

Carter's ex-wife threatens everything he holds dear when her tense relationship with their daughter falls apart. He travels across states to make things right, only to face an even greater threat. Away from his ordinary suburban life in Michigan, Carter faces torrential rains, alluring women, and threats from the past and present. Will he be able to face his inner demons, and save his daughter from a looming unseen threat before it's too late?

Dark secrets will be revealed as winds and passions rage towards a deadly climax. Geoffrey Moehl II's thrilling supernatural follow-up to Florida Heat is a story about the power of family, and a true love that endures beyond the grave.

...........................................................................
MY REVIEW

Carter Manning’s wife, Lindsey, divorced him years ago and along with their daughter Ashley, moved to Florida. He later met his soulmate Jennifer Ann. But right before they marry, Jennifer Ann dies leaving Carter a broken man. Even though he is barely functioning, that doesn’t stop Lindsey from calling almost daily demanding more and more money, and Carter always complies. When a hurricane destroys Lindsey’s home, Carter leaves Michigan and flies to Florida to see how he can help her. But when he gets there, Lindsey informs him that Ashley is missing. At that point, Lindsey’s destroyed home becomes second priority.


I did not like the characters in this read. Carter may have been broken, but he was almost as shallow as Lindsey. Ashley, as a teen, had more maturity than any of them. Also, I felt there were a couple of things that didn’t add up or information that was left out. I liked how the author based this story on true, actual events, like the hurricanes. It made for an exciting, roller coaster of adventure read. Although I was certain of the underlying aspects of what was going on, I was still caught up in the story. I look forward to more reads from this author.

Ambushed in Paradise Tour and Giveaway


The Keys is a great place to hide a seashell bucket full of secrets.

Creole…shot…dead. Three words Madison Westin never thought she’d hear in the same sentence. Creole promised. He pinky swore on it.

But even through a blur of tears fed by prescription-strength margaritas, Madison can tell when things are shady. Sure, Creole was undercover, but she deserves more than sketchy non-answers, an urn of ashes, and a secret life crawling out of the woodwork.

Nothing’s adding up, nothing that remotely sounds like the Creole she knew and loved. Calling in every one of her IOU’s—only to find some of her most reliable information sources drying up—Madison sets out to dig up what really happened to Creole. She never thought the truth would wrap its arms around her and make her wonder if she’s chasing a ghost… or taking a vacation from sanity.

Ambushed in Paradise is book #12 in the action-packed Paradise series. Come along with Madison and Fab as they dig up the truth and share more than one hair raising adventure. 


The Paradise series, are Florida Keys mysteries, “great as stand-alone reads, but they're like chips...you won't be able to devour just one!”


Available to buy from.....

"I love the characters, Brown does an amazing job of creating complex and interesting characters!" 

"This was one of the author's strongest books yet"

"I have enjoyed this entire series, but this book is a standout."

MY REVIEW

 Madison feels lost after the love of her life is killed in the line of duty. She can’t get any information on what went down, nor understand how the police department could give such a sorry excuse of a funeral for Creole. All she can count on is her best friends Fab and Didier since her family only wants to interfere and not let her process her grief on her own terms. One thing is for sure though. Madison Westin will not stop without uncovering the truth behind Creole’s death.

I felt so bad for Madison, and I couldn’t understand how her family could treat her the way they did. There was a shift in several character’s personalities, and not for the good. I predict there will be more strife ahead between Madison, brother Brad, and mother dearest, Madeline. But I do like the newest characters, and the direction Madison and Fab are taking. It will be interesting to see where it goes.

About the Author
I've been writing, in one way or another for as long as I can remember; poetry, sappy short stories (my best friend made me swear that I’d never show anyone until I changed the names), and a romance novel shoved under my bed.

I wanted to create books with a wide-range of unforgettable characters, with heat and romance, and lots of guns. It wouldn’t be complete without a slice of humor and charm.

I live with my family and demon children aka rescue cats in South Florida.
