Review: Relentless Pursuit by Kathy Herman


About the book:
Rich with the Cajun flavors of south Louisiana, this final book in the Secrets of Roux River Bayou Series is a story of what it means to find true peace in an uncertain world. 

Sax Landry left home at seventeen to escape his father’s abuse, leaving his mother and sister to fend for themselves. Now, twenty-eight years later, both parents are dead, and guilt compels him to find his sister and make peace. His search leads to Les Barbes, Louisiana, where authorities fear a bio-terrorist has injected cyanide into juice cartons and fresh produce at the grocery store. People are dead. It’s not safe. Sax stays, fearing death less than living another day without peace. A divine appointment is about to change all that forever.

Book Review: Dangerous Mercy: A Novel by Kathy Herman

Dangerous Mercy: A Novel (Secrets of Roux River Bayou)
I've read many books by Kathy Herman (including 'False Pretenses') and I was pretty sure, before I even started 'Dangerous Mercy', that I would enjoy it!

Thankfully, I was right and 'Dangerous Mercy' was very enjoyable, held my attention, and was overall just a great mystery/suspense!

When I read the first book in this series ('False Pretenses'), Adele Woodmore was one of my favorite characters - mainly because she was so friendly, merciful, and forgiving. In 'Dangerous Mercy', though, that mercy may put her life in danger.

I was so excited to read more about the Broussard's - and learn what's been happening since 'False Pretenses' with them, the Langleys, and other characters we met in the first book.

I liked pretty much all of the characters in 'Dangerous Mercy'. Some of my favorites were Adele (as mentioned above), Zoe, Vanessa, Noah, and the guys from the restaurant - I loved how they interacted with Grace.

There was so much suspense and mystery in 'Dangerous Mercy' that I found it easy to read and now I'm patiently looking forward to reading 'Relentless Pursuit' when it releases.

I most definitely recommend 'Dangerous Mercy' if you enjoy mysteries, but I would suggest you read 'False Pretenses' first.

*I received a complimentary copy from the publisher for my review. I was not required to give a positive review, only my honest opinion - which I have done.*

False Pretenses - Kathy Herman

Before I started 'False Pretenses' I didn't know if I was going to enjoy it, but I was pleasantly surprised. I really enjoyed the story and the characters. Forgiveness and Grace were a major theme in 'False Pretenses'. Adele Woodmore was probably my favorite character because she seemed so nice and friendly.

'False Pretenses' was so moving that it brought tears to my eyes. I am looking forward to reading the next book in this series - 'Dangerous Mercy' - when it comes out this year.

Something I noticed after reading 'False Pretenses' is that I should have read the 'Sophie Trace Trilogy' first because some of the characters from that series are also in this book (particularly the Langley's). So I plan to read that series soon, that way I can know the background story to them (plus it seems like the series will be interesting).
