Mills & Boon Love Inspired Suspense

review 1: As a romantic suspense enthusiast from way back when, I jumped at the chance to check out Susan May Warren’s Love Inspired Suspense Series: Missions of Mercy. Susan’s a prolific author, but I’ve only read one of her books. So I was eager to see what she would bring to the table for the romantic suspense genre. Here are the pros and cons of what her LI series has to offer . . .First, the pros: Exotic locations: check Heart-stopping suspense: check Plucky, resourceful heroines: check Tough heroes with big hearts: check Just the right amount of romance and humor as befits the danger: check Perfect length for me to finish while proctoring exams: check Strong inspirational themes: check For a bonus, these guys are ex-military: Two checks!Now, the c... moreons: As far as I could discover, she’s only published three in this series. Which definitely left me wanting more! My favorite aspect of the Missions of Mercy Series is that the books are written from a Christian worldview. Kudos to Susan May Warren for making faith an integral part of her characters’ lives. And the spiritual issues they wrestle with are not superficial. They matter in the real world. The way I see it, when the man with the gun facing down a relentless physical enemy can also operate in the spiritual realm–now that’s a great story!The first book, Point of No Return, features Chet Stryker. Chet’s just your ordinary former Delta Force operative now running his own international security company, with a price on his head in Georgia—the country. His beautiful ex-flame Mae, a former military pilot, asks for his help rescuing her teenage nephew who’s been kidnapped in . . . Georgia, of course. And since Chet had been the one to dump Mae—totally to protect her from the dangers life at his side might hold—sparks fly when he decides to join her on her mission of mercy.By the end of this book, Chet Stryker had become one of my favorite male characters. I loved his inner voice, sense of humor, and heroic spirit. Mae came across as both vulnerable and brave, a fascinating combination for a heroine. I truly enjoyed this story!
review 2: I have been reading these "love inspired suspense" novels for a long time, and this was the best one I've read. I wish there were a 4 1/2 stat category, as there were minor things here (sort of a deus ex machina at the end) and there, but, all in all, a great read, and not like the others "I've read in many ways. For example, in others, EVERYTHING always woks out by the final chapter. In this one, it does not. No other book I've read has been set in somewhere other than the US. less
