REVIEW: Midnight Secrets by Lisa Marie Rice

In Midnight Secrets by Lisa Marie Rice takes her readers on a suspenseful adventure, which is full of excitement, danger, and amazing characters. This book is hard to put down once you start reading, so my suggestion is to carve out some alone time, because this book hooks you and doesn’t free you until the end of the journey.

Let’s begin with the characters. The author created an amazing hero and heroine that I fell in love with from the start. Joe is a former Navy Seal who almost died twice, but still has the strength and fortitude to jump back into danger when it’s called for. Doctor’s orders require him to rest, but when he meets Isabel, all bets are off.

“She was so beautiful his jaw had dropped the first time he saw her, talking to the moving guys. Good thing she wasn’t looking his way otherwise he’d have scared her off. He couldn’t’ take his eyes off her.”

Isabel is damaged. She lost all her family and it was sheer luck that made her a survivor. Isabel at first glance is afraid of her own shadow, but let me tell you, she has a multitude of inner strength just waiting to bust out. She just needs the right motivation and she gets it…..boy does she get it!

“Because I’m secretly hoping that you’ll all shoot him full of holes.”

When danger starts to lurk around Isabel, Joe will stop at nothing to protect her. With the help of his friends and a Mystery Man, they band together to try to eliminate the problem. Only…it’s not as easy as they believe.

Midnight Secrets had me on the edge of my seat throughout the whole story. This story is full of surprises and a few twists and turns that you won’t see coming. My favorite part has to be when they finally meet Mystery Man. No one will see that coming!!!

As for the writing, the story is well-written, the characters are fully developed, not to mention engaging, and the story line will keep you occupied. The secondary characters add to the excitement of the story and make you want to read the whole series over again.

If I had the chance to give it more than 5 stars I would! Midnight Secrets is definitely recommended!

Former Navy SEAL Joe Harris nearly died—twice—on a medevac helo after being blown up by an IED. He’s not moving too great these days, but if there was ever a woman designed to jump start a man’s hormones, it would be his new neighbor.
Meeting Isabel—loving Isabel—brought Joe back to life.

Isabel Delvaux came from one of America’s foremost political dynasties, until the greatest terrorist attack since 9/11 killed her entire family. She barely survived the Washington Massacre, only to become prey for rabid reporters. Fleeing to Portland and changing her name was a way out, a way to start over. The only way.

She knows she’s safe with Joe Harris. Not just because he’s big and strong, not just because he’s part of a security team that obliterates threats on the regular, but because he’s been to the abyss and back.

But as they help each other heal–through talk, through touch, through spectacular sex—the past comes back to play. When Isabel’s memory starts to return and a mysterious stranger sends Joe emails indicating she’s in imminent danger, he’ll do anything to help her uncover the truth. Even if that truth is the most terrifying thing of all
