Five Book Friday: In Memoriam
(0 comment)
Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

This is the 4th book in the Lodestone series, the 2nd book in the Stark brothers but it’s is also a stand alone book. It starts out with Riva Rimaldi, who is a T-Flac operative. She is going undercover with the bad guys in Cosio when her helicopter is blown out of the sky. She is captured by members of ANLF. When she sees Sin Diaz, who is the leader of ANLF, she thinks he looks familiar. Sin has amnesia but is beginning to get flashes of his real life. When what he is remembering doesn’t match up with what his mother and friends are telling him, he begins to wonder if he really is who they say he is. There’s a lot of bad guys, shooting and things happening so if you like excitement, you need to read this book. Things are going to happen that you won’t expect. We’ve had to wait a very long time for Gideon’s story but Cherry Adair didn’t let us down. It is a great book!

I was talking with Cherry Adair last fall and she said that she had been told since erotic books were so popular that she needed to write one. She said no, she didn’t write erotic books but she would try to come up with something. This book is not an erotic book but it’s one of the best “naughty” books that I’ve read. It’s nothing like her usual books of government agents and wizards but it does have the usual bad guy. Cruz Barcelona is the best of the best in the assassin’s world and this was going to be his last job. He would have enough money to retire so he headed to a little rural town in Louisiana. The first time he met Mia Hayward who was really Amelia Wellington-Wentworth, she mistook him as a male prostitute that she had hired for the night. Amelia is the CEO of Blush, her family’s billion dollar cosmetic company. Someone has been trying to kill her and they hired Cruz to get the job done. He soon has questions about why someone wants her dead. She’s an innocent and he only assassinates the guilty. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. I know I said it’s nothing like her books but it really is. It’s fun and exciting and kept me guessing all the way through it as to who wanted her dead. Needless to say, I was wrong with my guess. Read it and I know you will like it.
