Virtual Tour: Chance Encounter By Christy Reece


She’s the face of innocence whose secrets, if uncovered, could destroy her carefully crafted life.

On the cusp of achieving every goal she’s set for herself, Kacie Dane is one step away from superstardom. The hell she endured five years ago is a nightmare of the past. With a new name and a new life, no one would ever recognize her as the ravaged victim she’d once been. Her secret is safe…or so she thinks.

He’s a disgraced former sports star looking for redemption, determined to stay in the shadows.

Once the golden boy of the NFL, Brennan Sinclair’s fall from grace was witnessed by the entire world. Determined to stay out of the limelight and make his life count for something, he joins the Elite branch of Last Chance Rescue. Brennan never expected his first assignment would draw him back into the life that almost destroyed him.

Some secrets should never be kept. Some sins can never be forgiven.

Someone knows exactly who Kacie Dane is and will stop at nothing to destroy her. Brennan is sure that he, along with his LCR Elite partners, can keep Kacie safe and unmask the evil trying to destroy her, but he never expected to lose his heart to the one woman he couldn’t have.

A killer bent on revenge. A woman who refuses to be broken. A man in need of redemption.

No one is safe.

When I first started getting back into reading years ago I had ran across Christy Reece’s books and quickly became a fan.  Unfortunately I had fallen behind on her books and they had kind of been lost in the crazy mix of books I still have to read but never find the time.  Chance Encounter reminded me of all the reasons why Christy Reece had a helping hand in renewing my reading addiction those years ago.  If you have ever read a Christy Reece book or if she is a new to you author then you will know that her books are filled with action, suspense, drama, steamy sex, and some smoking hot heroes.  Chance Encounter delivered all of those things and more.


I am not going to get into details about the plot or what action occurs because I don’t want to spoil it for anyone.  I will say this though, if you love a good romance that is filled with action and suspense along with the right amount of sexiness the you will love Chance Encounter as much as I did.  I am going to make the time to go back and reread the ones I have already and then go buy the ones I haven’t because I will not make the mistake of allowing another long period of time go by before I catch up with her books. If you haven’t read her books yet take the time and see why she helped me find my love of reading once more so many years ago.

  Author Info
Growing up in a tiny community in Alabama boasting only one stop sign and a gas station gave Christy ample opportunity to create daring adventures in her head. When she wasn't thinking of her story characters, Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys kept her entertained and out of trouble. Later came the chills of Stephen King and the thrills of John Grisham, but the romance genre always held a strong place in her heart.

A few years ago, she decided to write the stories that had been rattling around in her head. Now she and her characters couldn't be happier.

Christy lives in Alabama with her husband, five adorable fur-kids and one very shy turtle.

Second Chance by Christy Reece


5 stars!
Amazon link-Second Chance

Second Chance is the 5th book in the Last Chance Rescue Series.

This is romantic-suspense at its best! Christy Reece writes a gripping tale of a mother who not only lost her husband a year earlier, but has her twin daughters kidnapped before her very eyes and then sold to human traffickers.

Keeley's children are kidnapped in front of her and she is powerless to stop it. Last Chance Rescue sends in Cole, one of their top rescuers. I couldn't wait to read about Cole since I thought he had died in a previous book. Cole gives Keeley not only his help, but love and support while trying to find the kidnappers during this stressful time for her. I had an idea who had kidnapped the girls, but at the same time thought it was just too easy for it to be that person....and I was right. I was glad we didn't find out who the set the whole plan up until the very end. What a suspenseful scene that was! And a wicked evil person to boot! Christy writes the best villains. She really makes them come to life through the pages.

Christy Reece is my absolute favorite romantic suspense author. I love her and her books! This story was so very emotional for me. As a mother myself, all I could think about was what if this ever happened to me. I teared up quite a few times while reading this book. I would recommend Christy Reece to anyone who likes Pamela Clare. Christy is a fantastic writer. A force to be reckoned with.

Sweet Justice by Christy Reece


5 Stars
Amazon link- SWEET JUSTICE by Christy Reece


I am going to try and be as honest and faithful as I can when it comes to reviewing this book. Not only have I loved every novel in the Last Chance Rescue series, I have also come to really enjoy Christy Reece as a person and not just an author. If you follow Christy's blog or her facebook page, you will see that she is not only devoted to her books, but her fans as well. She answers every comment and question that comes her way. I did have the privilege of meeting her at the RWA Literacy Signing in New York City and what a down to earth woman she is! I felt instantly comfortable with her and liked her even more. She was the number one person I wanted to meet there and I am so happy I got the chance to. Some authors have the ability to move and evoke emotion out of you more so than others, and Christy's books do it to me every time. If you haven't read her books yet, well, you don't know what you are missing. Ok, now on to my review!

This is the 7th book in the Last Chance Rescue series and it ranks right up there with the rest of her novels in this series. The book starts off exploring the relationship between Honor Stone, an FBI agent, and Seth Cavanaugh. Seth is an undercover cop trying to take down the evil Hector Clemmons when he decides they must end their relationship. Seth never had any intentions of starting a relationship with anyone, but sometimes you find love in the places where you least expect it. Not only does Seth make the decision to ruthlessly end his relationship with Honor, but he also shuts out his family in the process. He knows what Clemmons is capable of and will go to any length he has to to protect the ones he loves, including Honor....even if it means ruining his character.

5 years later.

Now an ex-cop, Seth Cavanaugh calls Noah McCall, leader of the Last Chance Rescue team, in an effort to find his missing niece. She has gone mysteriously missing and the cops have no leads. Seth flies into Paris to talk with Noah about his missing niece. It's surprise surprise for Seth when Honor walks into the meeting room to discuss the operation of finding his niece, along with other young woman who have gone missing which the LCR team believes they are all being kidnapped by the same person. Teams are formed and Seth and Honor are working together to find the missing woman. Not only are they working hard on the case, they are also working hard on not having feelings for each other again, which is inevitable. You can feel the chemistry they had from the beginning. Honor had her heart broken when Seth left her five years ago, but little does she know so did Seth. While Seth and Honor are working together, we meet the most vile villain I have ever read, Alden Pike. He is the epitome of a villain. Alden Pike is a grotesque, malicious, vindictive sadist. He and his daughter, Tabitha, are evil to the core and yet I could not stop reading this book. Alden believes that woman are placed on this earth to pleasure men and see to their mates needs first before themselves. He opens Tranquility, a cult-like place far far out of reach of civilization. For 15 years, Alden has been kidnapping young shy college girls and forcing them to undergo extensive training in order for them to be what he believes is the proper mate.

This is a wonderfully written, romantic-suspense novel. It brought tears to my eyes a couple of times and put me on the edge of my seat a few times through out this book. I wanted so much for Seth's family to come around and understand what he went through when he had to desert them. I wanted Honor to forgive Seth for the past. I wanted the woman of Tranquility to be saved. I wanted Alden and Tabitha Pike to die. And most of all I wanted Honor and Seth to have the future they were meant to have.


There are a few lines that I thought needing listing from the book.

Alden was the only man who was allowed the outlet of divorce. Staying satisfied and free of worry enabled him to be a better leader. He'd made that clear to his people from the beginning. Not that he would ever consider divorce. A man who could not control his woman was not a man. He'd had only three wives....all of them had agreed to his request that they leave him. Once a month, as a show of respect, he visited their graves.

"Yes, daughter, you have permission to kill your brother."
-Alden to Tabitha

She couldn't let herself love him again. Taking pleasure for pleasures sake could only last so long. When the heartbreak came again, as it inevitably would, it would be bad; she refused to be caught in that tidal wave again. She'd been there, done that, and still had the crack in her heart to prove it.

"Sleep with me tonight."
Whirling around, Seth started at her. "What?"
"If you go in there, you'll stay up all night, reading those files. You need to get some rest." Sensuality and arousal erasing the exhaustion from his face, he advanced toward her. "So sleeping with me is really for my health?"

SWEET REVENGE by Christy Reece




5 Stars
Amazon link- Sweet Revenge


Look at that cover. Mmm, mmm, mmm, good! I love those colors together! HAHA I bet you thought I was going to say something else.....

I am sooo excited to start this book tonight! I hear it's the best in the series so far.....



This author can do no wrong in my eyes. It's hard for me to choose which book has been the best so far. My heart will always have Eden and Jordan in the number one spot, but this book is very close to that spot. It was the most heart wrenching book of the series as of yet. I ached and cried during some parts. For instance, when Dylan was telling Jamie about his dog, his father and the abuse he had to take when he was a child. It was all so real and believable in my eyes that I didn't want to go any further with reading the book. Christy really brought to life these characters and the struggles in their life. I had to remind myself at times that this is a fiction novel, and it didn't really happen. Well, let's not hope not anyway. There are some sick people in this world.

I am dreading the next book. It's not that I don't want to read it, oh believe me, I do, but it is the last and final book of the series and I don't want it to end. All of Christy's books hold a dear spot in my heart and I feel like I am say good-bye to the characters. It's never fun to say good-bye.
