Marylin,
This is the second book in the new series by Christy Barritt, it takes place on the sweet island of Lantern Beach。 I love being able to still read what’s happening in the lives of all the wonderful characters on Lantern Beach。 I feel like we’re friends and I enjoy keeping up with them。 Unfortunately, they seem to have many mysterious things that keep happening to their little island and in their community。Blackout is the new company of ex-Navy SEAL men who want their lives to have meaning。 They This is the second book in the new series by Christy Barritt, it takes place on the sweet island of Lantern Beach。 I love being able to still read what’s happening in the lives of all the wonderful characters on Lantern Beach。 I feel like we’re friends and I enjoy keeping up with them。 Unfortunately, they seem to have many mysterious things that keep happening to their little island and in their community。Blackout is the new company of ex-Navy SEAL men who want their lives to have meaning。 They provide protection, extra support, and other services to individuals around the world and their own city of Lantern Beach。 In this story, we meet Axel who actually has lived on this island all his life, except when he joined up to be a SEAL。 He has many faults, but he’s only hiding who he really is on the inside。 I loved a quote from the book, “It was like he was a magnet, and they were spiky shards of metal that gravitated toward him at a terrifying force。”Olivia is someone who also has secrets, but she’s just trying to start her life over and get away from her past。 Unfortunately, her past has come to find her。 I love the suspense, action, drama, intrigue, and romance that Christy Barritt puts into all of her stories。 This one is no different。 It is so full of suspense I had no idea which person was the true bad guy。 I’m always trying to guess, but most often I get it wrong。 She really knows how to throw twists and turns into her stories。Wow! It kept me on the seat of my chair and I just couldn’t put it down。 I actually read it in one day! Now, I can’t wait for the next one to come out! At least I hope there’s another one coming out!I was given this book by the author which did not influence my review in any way, all thoughts and opinions are my own。 。。。more
Kim,
Worlds collide in Lantern Beach between Blackout Security, their current case, former missions, tourists, a corporate retreat and new islanders。 Throw in some mysterious disappearances, stalkers and more to create a recipe for disaster tough for the good guys to handle and an evening or two of enjoyment for readers。I received a complimentary copy of the book without obligation。 This review is my opinion。

It Takes One to Know OneTake two people scarred by past relationships, throw them together in life or death circumstances where they must learn to trust, and you have an explosive story!

Sarah,
Life RegretsI guess you can’t complain too much when a biggest regret is not being able to finish a book that you start reading at breakfast, till the end of the day。。。 Axel and Olivia made it REALLY hard to concentrate when I was dying to know how all of their mysteries would turn out! I don’t think it’s a spoiler to say that you know they will end up together, although when I had to stop reading this morning, HOW that would happen was one of the biggest mysteries。 Excellent, suspense-filled ro Life RegretsI guess you can’t complain too much when a biggest regret is not being able to finish a book that you start reading at breakfast, till the end of the day。。。 Axel and Olivia made it REALLY hard to concentrate when I was dying to know how all of their mysteries would turn out!

Kelly Bridgewater,
Axel by Christy Barritt features more of the Blackout heroes。 From the first chapter, readers are introduced to Olivia and Axel。 There is something mysterious about Olivia, but of course, readers do not know why。 Tristan, an ex-boyfriend, comes onto the page and throws Olivia for a loop。 While Barritt does a fabulous job at throwing Olivia and Axel for a number of twists and turns, I do not believe that the issue that Olivia wants to keep hinted is that big of a deal。 No one would honestly care Axel by Christy Barritt features more of the Blackout heroes。 From the first chapter, readers are introduced to Olivia and Axel。 There is something mysterious about Olivia, but of course, readers do not know why。 Tristan, an ex-boyfriend, comes onto the page and throws Olivia for a loop。 While Barritt does a fabulous job at throwing Olivia and Axel for a number of twists and turns, I do not believe that the issue that Olivia wants to keep hinted is that big of a deal。 No one would honestly care about that。 But that is just me! As for the character of Azel, I love the model on the front cover。 He rides a motorcycle, so bad boy vibe is there, which is a hot factor。 However, he really jumps into helping Olivia at all cost。 The mystery kept jumping, but it appeared done before, so I knew who it was before Barritt showed the readers。 Overall, Axel by Christy Barritt is still an enjoyable read that fans of Barritt will enjoy。 I received a complimentary copy of Axel by Christy Barritt, but the opinions stated are all my own。 。。。more

Mary,
This exciting, suspenseful novel offers a complete story in itself, but the series set in Lantern Beach are best read in order for maximum enjoyment。 This one features Blackout Security’s team member Axel Hendrix, a handsome guy who attracts women without effort。 Olivia Rollins, a waitress, tries to avoid him, but events throw them together。 Then they team up to try to stop the danger that threatens not only her but others on the island。 The tension ramps up as readers try to guess who might be This exciting, suspenseful novel offers a complete story in itself, but the series set in Lantern Beach are best read in order for maximum enjoyment。 This one features Blackout Security’s team member Axel Hendrix, a handsome guy who attracts women without effort。 Olivia Rollins, a waitress, tries to avoid him, but events throw them together。 Then they team up to try to stop the danger that threatens not only her but others on the island。 The tension ramps up as readers try to guess who might be behind the plot。 This author continues to craft intriguing mysteries that draw readers in and won’t let go。 I received a copy from the author。 All opinions are my own。 。。。more
Sandra Hartzel,
I had a BETA Copy of this book, but this is my voluntary and honest opinion。 Christy Barritt has another hit with this newest book in the Lantern Blackout Series。 Axel and Olivia, both with trust issues from past relationships, find themselves fake engaged in order to gain information about the people she formally worked with。 The plot includes missing women and threats on both their lives which keeps the story interesting and moving quickly。 I would highly recommend reading this book。
Debbie,
Another heart-stopping suspense book from Christy Barritt。 On this return to Lantern Beach, we continue meeting the new recruits。 This time it is Axel, who saves waitress Olivia from her ex-fiance's rough treatment。 Danger begins to surround Oliva and Axel so they end up working together to figure out who is responsible before someone gets hurt - or worse。 Suspense, mystery, hidden secrets and a touch of romance make this a must-read。 Looking forward to meeting the rest of the new Blackout recru Another heart-stopping suspense book from Christy Barritt。 On this return to Lantern Beach, we continue meeting the new recruits。 This time it is Axel, who saves waitress Olivia from her ex-fiance's rough treatment。 Danger begins to surround Oliva and Axel so they end up working together to figure out who is responsible before someone gets hurt - or worse。 Suspense, mystery, hidden secrets and a touch of romance make this a must-read。 Looking forward to meeting the rest of the new Blackout recruits!
