ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date June 28, 2021

The thrilling and sizzling final installment in the More Than A Threat series.
Can their hope for forever be enough to get them through the final mission?

This was the worst plan ever. Putting her on the front line, smack in the middle of the danger, went against every protective instinct ingrained in Casey Weston. Identifying the human trafficking group, rescuing the victims, and keeping Kate unharmed was potentially too much for even the highly trained team to achieve. One thing was for certain: if they made it out it alive, Casey intended to keep Kate in his life–forever.

What in the heck did Kate sign herself up for? At least this time she had Casey and the others by her side. When the carefully crafted plan imploded into an epic gun battle, Kate found herself in over her head and unable to tell friend from foe. Captured and weak, Kate’s only focus was on survival. Because if she made it through alive, she was determined to never let Casey out of her life ever again.

A threat brought them together; her independence nearly tore them apart. Will their combined hope for a future together be enough for a happy ever after?

More Than a Hope is the third and final book in the More Than a Threat series. This series should be read in order starting with Book 1, More Than a Threat. Please note this series is intended for mature audiences due to foul language, detailed intimate scenes, and violence.

•••••••

REVIEW:MORE THAN A HOPE is the third and final instalment in Kennedy L Mitchell’s contemporary, adult MORE THAN A THREAT erotic, romantic suspense series focusing on former Special Forces soldier turned body guard Casey Weston, and ER physician Dr. Kate Wheeler. MORE THAN A HOPE should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up immediately after the events of book two MORE THAN A RISK.

WARNING: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

NOTE: If you have not read book one and two, there may be spoilers in my review.

Told from first person perspective (Kate) MORE THAN A HOPE follows Casey Weston and his former Special Forces Rangers (Tyler, Kyle, Anne and James) as they embark on a mission to rescue and recover several woman they believe to have been abducted and sold into sexual slavery. In MORE THAN A RISK Kate discovered the seedier side of businessman Chase Smitson, and attempted a take down, all on her own. With the help of Weston’s team, they effectively stopped Chase’s end of the human trafficking business but plans had already been set into motion, and the gang along with a pushy Dr. Kate Wheeler, with the aid of their government counterparts, set off to Hawaii to put an end to a sexual slave auction. As the team make plans to go in undercover with the assistance of Weston’s brother Ryan, Kate demands to be part of the operation, effectively placing everyone and the man that she loves in the direct line of fire. What ensues is the ongoing relationship between Kate and Weston, and the potential fall-out as suspicion grows regarding the newcomers to sexual slavery.

The relationship between Weston and Kate is erotic and intense but our heroine continues to be TSTL (too stupid to live). Inexperienced in the ways of military missions, search and rescues, and Special Forces heroics, a stubborn and impulsive Kate Wheeler pushes, demands and throws a temper tantrum in an effort to be part of the mission wherein she will become fodder for the sick and depraved. Her self-preservation remains absent but her stupidity grows by the hour-boredom threatens their operation as Kate and Anne go out on their own. Once again, suspending reality is best, as it pertains to allowing a civilian to partake in, and control a mission such as this.

Tyler, Kyle, Anne and James return. The camaraderie between former teammates and friends is fun and frenetic but Anne pulls a fast one, along with our heroine, effectively threatening the success of their current mission. I am hoping the author has plans for further story lines involving the team.

MORE THAN A HOPE is a story of recovery and rescue, take down and destruction, power, desperation, vengeance, love and forever The fast paced premise is intriguing; the romance is intimate; the characters are clever, dynamic, spirited and edgy but our heroine’s recklessness and absurdity are questionable on so many levels. MORE THAN A HOPE, and the More Than a Threat series is captivating and compelling if only you can get past the unreality of some of the situations.

MORE THAN A THREAT
More Than A Threat 1
by Kennedy L Mitchell
Release Date: March 10, 2017
Genre: contemporary, adult, romantic suspense

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / Amazon.uk / Amazon.au /

Dr. Kate Wheeler is an independent, feisty emergency-medicine doctor with a perfect life, or at least that’s what everyone sees from the outside. Her world is turned upside down when she is forced to allow twenty-four-seven protection, disrupting her independent lifestyle leaving Kate to adjust, or not. She finds herself in unchartered territory as she balances a new love interest at work, never being alone and dodging multiple attempts on her life. If it weren’t for her two best friends by her side the stress would be too much, even for her to handle.
Her newly assigned security detail, Casey Weston, is harsh, dismissive, and overbearing. His sexy, strong body and bad-boy tattoos are just the exterior to this thoughtful man who has secrets of his own. As he works to keep Kate at arm’s length he finds himself equally frustrated and fascinated by this woman who pushes his boundaries. Weston’s rules are intense and focused solely on keeping her alive. But as time goes on, will his better judgment falter?

••••••••

REVIEW:MORE THAN A THREAT is the first instalment in Kennedy L Mitchell’s contemporary, adult MORE THAN A THREAT romantic suspense series focusing on Dr. Kate Wheeler, and former Special Forces soldier turned security specialist Casey Weston.

Told from first person perspective (Kate Wheeler) MORE THAN A THREAT follows in the aftermath of threats against our story line heroine. Kate’s father is an attorney in Dallas, and his latest case involving the Mexican cartel now finds our heroine in the direct line of fire, if her father does not drop the case. Believing his daughter need protection, Kate’s dad hires a personal bodyguard for Kate, a man who threatens all sorts of proprietary thoughts from our story line heroine. Enter former Special Forces soldier turned security specialist Casey Weston. What ensues is the distant but building relationship between Weston and Kate, and the potential fall-out as their relationship grows closer threatening the safety of everyone involved.

Kate Wheeler doesn’t want protection but our heroine is a little TSTL (too stupid to live) at times placing herself in danger without even knowing. From a possible work-place relationship, to nights out with friends, Kate finds herself on the receiving end of too many threats, threats that are about to push Weston out of her life. Casey Weston doesn’t do relationships but his heart wants something more from our story line heroine. Weston knows that Kate is an assignment, a client but their attraction to one –another is combustible and hot.

The relationship between Kate and Weston begins acrimoniously as Kate believes she is capable of looking after herself but on more than one occasion Kate is anything but prepared for the threats against her life. As Weston tries to keep his distance, the palpable sexual attraction is too hard to ignore. A Christmas vacation in Vail ends with our heroine’s life in the balance, and Weston walks without looking back. The $ex scenes are limited but sensual and passionate.

We are introduced to Kate’s co-workers: Eric and Meagan, both doctors in the ER; new trauma surgeon Dr. Austin Lockwood, as well as Kate’s father, and bodyguard Joe.

MORE THAN A THREAT is a character driven story of vengeance, threats and anger; power and control; family, relationships, friendships and love; desperation, revelations, passion and regret. The premise is dramatic and intense; the characters are energetic and edgy; the slow building romance is sensitive and intimate. MORE THAN A THREAT ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

MORE THAN A RISK
More than a Threat 2
by Kennedy L Mitchell
Release Date: August 16, 20217
Genre: contemporary, adult, romantic suspense

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / Amazon.uk / Amazon.au /

Is a life worth living if you don’t risk it all for the one you love?

After abandoning her when she needed him most, it will take a lot to win her heart again—which he is prepared to do but Kate has never been one to give in easily.

A surprise visit from a dear friend pulls the feisty doctor into a deadly game of cat and mouse with a local businessman full of dark secrets. It’s up to Kate to bring this man to justice knowing her father, the Dallas DA, won’t prosecute without evidence; evidence she is willing to do anything to obtain.
With the love of her life observing her every move Kate is forced to walk the fine line of deceit to keep him at arm’s length. When the charade takes a dangerous turn will Weston be enough to bring her back from the edge, or is it too late for them both?

Hearts and lives are at risk and Kate and Weston’s fiery relationship returns in this second book of the More Than a Threat series.

•••••

REVIEW:MORE THAN A RISK is the second instalment in Kennedy L Mitchell’s contemporary, adult MORE THAN A THREAT erotic, romantic suspense series focusing on former Special Forces soldier turned body guard Casey Weston, and ER physician Dr. Kate Wheeler. MORE THAN A RISK should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up immediately after the events and cliff hanger on book one MORE THAN A THREAT.

WARNING: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

NOTE: If you have not read book one there may be spoilers in my review.

Told from first person perspective (Kate) MORE THAN A RISK picks up immediately after the events of book one wherein our heroine finds herself the victim of a drive-by shooting intended to kill. Kate’s father is a prosecuting attorney trying to take down several members of the Mexican cartel but the fall-out of the shooting pulls Weston out off her life, as our hero struggles with his inability to protect the woman with whom he is falling in love. But all is not well in Dallas when Kate discovers some information regarding a human trafficking ring, and sets out to take down the man in charge, all by herself. With Weston’s return to protect the woman he loves, our hero watches from the sidelines as Kate continues to place herself in danger at every turn. What ensue is the rebuilding romance and relationship between Kate and Weston, and the potential fall-out as each are willing to sacrifice themselves to save the other.

The relationship between Kate and Weston struggles in the face of secrets and lies, and Kate’s need to remain independent and free. Dr. Kate Wheeler continues to be TSTL , and her increasing stupidity and lack of self preservation threatens not only her own life but that of the man with whom she will fall in love. You may have to suspend reality as the number of questionable incidences is unbelievable. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense; the sexual attraction is palpable and hot.

We are introduced to Weston’s brother Ryan; Weston’s former Special Forces teammates including Aiden aka Tex, and his fiancée Tracy; Tyler aka Mouse, Kyle, Anne, James Steel; businessman Chase Smitson, and the return fellow physicians Eric, Meagan and Austin.

MORE THAN A RISK is another story of secrets and lies, power and control, struggles and acceptance; family, friendships, relationship and love. The premise is twisted, dramatic and gritty; the romance is seductive; the characters are energetic and powerful-the camaraderie between the former Special Forces soldiers is real and inviting. MORE THAN A RISK ends on a happily ever after-for now-as the friends make plans for the future, working together as security specialists.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date April 19, 2021

Being ripped from her mundane life by a swarm of police officers is not what Rae Chapin expected when she woke up this morning. Accused of a series of murders she didn’t commit, Rae doesn’t have anyone to rely on. Except him. Alec Bronson, the popular boy who broke her heart all those years ago—now a smoking hot man—is her only hope of proving her innocence and finding the person eager to kill everyone she loves.

It’s been two decades since Texas Ranger Alec Bronson last saw Rae. He shouldn’t get involved, but with one look at his childhood friend behind the steel bars and her proclamations of innocence, he’s convinced to take the case. The battle to keep his renewed feelings for the curvaceous woman hidden becomes impossible when the true killer emerges once again, targeting the only woman he’s ever loved.

Life-altering secrets are revealed as the evidence mounts, pointing toward the killer who’s determined to make Rae pay for her past. When confronted with the truth, Rae is forced to make a decision.

His life or hers.

If you love a little darkness, murder, and possessive alpha heroes with the need for control mixed into your suspense then this series is for you. Please note this book is for mature readers due to detailed sexual content, foul language, discussion of abuse, and a killer who will stop at nothing.

••••••••

REVIEW: MINE TO GUARD is the third instalment in Kennedy L Mitchell’s contemporary, adult PROTECTION erotic, romantic suspense series. This is Texas Ranger Alec Bronson, and librarian Rae Chapin’s story line. MINE TO GUARD can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous storylines is revealed where necessary.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be some triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Alec and Rae) MINE TO GUARD follows the rekindling romance and relationship between Texas Ranger Alec Bronson, and librarian Rae Chapin. Approximately twenty years earlier, Alec Bronson left behind his high school sweetheart, and joined the military in an effort to escape the h*ll back home. Fast forward to present day wherein Texas Ranger Alec Bronson gets a phone call from the woman he has never stopped loving but a woman who is suspected in a series of murders. Enter Sweetcreek librarian Rae Chapin. What ensues is the rebuilding romance and relationship between Rae and Alec, as Alec and Special Agent / hacker extraordinaire Charlie Bekham begin an investigation of their own into a possible serial killer linked to our story line heroine.

Rae Chapin’s life began to spiral out of control shortly after Alec Bronson left behind a ‘Dear Jane’ letter, a letter that all but destroyed what was left of her heart. The murder of her parents was only the beginning, and in the ensuing years, Rae would be considered the prime suspect in several more. Desperate to prove her innocence, Rae calls in the only man to have broken her heart but a man she knows will be able to find the truth. Alec Bronson’s earlier years were horrific, and shaped the man he would one day become but Alec always believed like father, like son, and refused to place the onus of his upbringing on the woman he loved.

The relationship between Alec and Rae is a second chance romance; a rekindling affair between two people torn apart by dysfunctional family dynamics, and one man’s need to run without looking back. Rae had never stopped loving our story line hero, and in the end believed she was not worthy of love. With issues of low self esteem, Rae struggled to accept that Alec would one day hope for a happily ever after. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

We are introduced to Special Agent Charlie Bekham, as well as Alec’s house keeper Sherry, and Sweetcreek Detective Danny.

MINE TO GUARD is a story of obsession and vengeance, family and relationships, abuse, secrets, lies and love. The fast paced premise is powerful and twisted; the characters are dynamic and stubborn; the romance is spicy and provocative.

ABOUT THE BOOK:Release Date December 14, 202

Her tragic destiny was written long before he came into town.

Ellie longs to leave the small town she’s restricted to, but nothing and no one can change her bleak future. Every day is the same, until a trail of bodies is found just inside the town’s borders. When the sexy stranger steps into the bar, her body and hormones thrum on overdrive, making her desperately wish he was there to save her from more than just the killer.

FBI profiler Chandler Peters is broken in all the wrong places and searching for the one person who could save him from himself. Little does he know the urgent call that sends him to help hunt for a serial killer will also lead him to her. Ellie’s mysterious past, wit, and hidden scars speak to him unlike any other, making him wonder if they could save each other.

When all the evidence points to Ellie being in danger, Chandler races to find the killer before the woman who makes him live again becomes the next victim.

*Please note this book DOES contain several triggers (the serial killer does not play nice with others) and detailed mature content. This book is recommended for 18+.

••••••

REVIEW:MINE TO SAVE is the second instalment in Kennedy L Mitchell’s contemporary, adult PROTECTION erotic, romantic suspense series. This is thirty-eight year old, former Marine and FBI profiler Chandler Peters, and twenty-three year old waitress Ellie’s story line. MINE TO SAVE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty.Any important information from the previous instalment is revealed where necessary. Chandler Peters was first introduced in book one MINE TO PROTECT.

WARNING: Due to the nature of the story line premise, and the graphic violence, torture, coarse language and assault, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Chandler and Ellie) as well as a third person introductory prologue, MINE TO SAVE follows in the aftermath of a series of murders in and around the small town of Orin, Texas, possibly linked to a local religious cult. Texas Ranger Alec Bronson calls in reinforcements from the FBI, specifically FBI profiler Chandler Peters, and in the ensuing investigation, Chandler Peters finds himself facing his future in the guise of former cult member Ellie. Ellie is a young woman who ‘escaped’ the compound but found herself struggling to survive. Without an education or history, Ellie did menial jobs but our heroine watched plenty of TV, and had an ability to ferret out information to help our story line hero. As more bodies are found, threats against Ellie point to a possible suspect, a suspect who may have links to the local cult. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Ellie and Chandler, and the potential fall-out as Ellie is taken hostage by a killer, a killer no one ever suspected

Ellie knows nothing about her earlier life, and in this she is battling between what she was taught, and the reality of the world. Having been raised in a cult whose religious laws and views on sex are violent and unstable, Ellie struggles with what she wants in her personal life but Chandler is a man who is keenly aware of the darker side of religious dictates, having been raised in an atmosphere not unlilke that of our story line heroine. The small town of Orin refuses to help the FBI investigation, and as such, Chandler, Alec and Ellie must painstakingly rule out the possibilities including the number of suspects that have come and gone from Ellie’s life.

The relationship between Ellie and Chandler is one of immediate attraction but Chandler is not welcome in a town so close to the local cult. When the local sheriff claims ‘ownership’ of our story line heroine, Chandler goes all protective and claims Ellie as his own. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense.

We are introduced to Texas Ranger Alec Bronson, as well as Orin’s Sheriff Brett Swann, and his brother EMT Ryan Swann; Ellie’s friend Janice, and her neighbor Stan; her parents, as well as cult leader Jacob.

MINE TO SAVE is a dark and gritty story line of power and control; murder and vengeance; love, relationships and happily ever after. The premise is raw and twisted; the romance is sensitive and seductive; the characters are broken, charismatic and edgy. I will add I dislike the use of a certain four-letter word I find unnecessary in most story line premises. Many authors use if for shock value, leaving a bad taste in my reading experience.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date September 21, 2020

Everything we’ve fought for grinds to a halt with the attack—our future happy-ever-after now a lost hope as I’m abducted from the wreckage.

There’s a traitor in our midst who’s working alongside my long-term enemy, eager to destroy it all. He wants me to give up, to hand the life I’ve fought tooth and nail to achieve over to him. If I do, the pain will end, but others will suffer.

How much can I take before Trey saves me from the terrible fate they’ve promised if I don’t comply?

This is it, the moment where I have to make a choice.
Me or the millions who will suffer under the sociopath’s hand if I give him what he wants.

I might have been raised poor trailer trash, but that’s not who I am now.
My name’s Randi Sawyer, and I’m the president of the United States.
I will not bend. I will not break.

••••••

REVIEW: POWER TERM is the fifth and final? Instalment in Kennedy L Mitchell’s contemporary, adult POWER PLAY romantic suspense series focusing on attorney/ now US president Randi Sawyer, and Secret Service agent Trey Benson. POWER TERM should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up immediately after the events and cliff hanger of book four POWER SURGE.

NOTE: If you have not read the previous instalments, there may be some spoilers in my review.

WARNING: Due to the graphic nature of the story line premise, there may be some triggers for more sensitive readers.

SOME BACKGROUND: A few years earlier Randi Sawyer became the vice-presidential running mate to Kyle Birmingham, a man whose dirty politics run deadly and deep but in doing so Randi has angered a very powerful man who is determined to destroy our story line heroine. Now in the position as the US President, Randi continues to find herself the target of some very powerful people.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Trey and Randi) POWER TERM picks up immediately after the events of book four POWER SURGE wherein President Sawyer’s motorcade has come under fire leaving her entire security team dead or dying. Now in the hands of a sadistic assassin, Randi finds herself facing a familiar foe, a man who is desperate enough to destroy everyone Randi loves. As her lover and secret service agent Trey Benson begins a desperate search for the woman he loves, a call to the people in charge bring in some additional gunfire in an effort to uncover the whereabouts of Madam President.

POWER TERM is the culmination of five story lines focusing on attorney Randi Sawyer, whose entire life has been a struggle to prove she is worthy, and yet continues to find herself on the defensive when it comes to her life and her loves. Not everyone is happy that Randi ran for political office, and now that she sits in the highest political office in the US, Randi’s enemies continue to attack, this time success in reaching their target.

POWER TERM is a fast paced, story of political suspense; a story of betrayal and vengeance; jealousy and retribution; relationships, friendships and love. The premise is intriguing and exciting; the romance is passionate and heart breaking; the characters are resilient and captivating. POWER TERM ends on a bit of a cliff hanger with more story to tell-let’s wait and see if the author has any plans for Randi and Trey’s continuing story.

Every move I make, every breath and thought, now affects millions, and the weight wears me down without Trey as a welcomed distraction.

Past enemies lurk in the shadows while new ones hide in plain sight, stalking, watching, and waiting for the right moment to take me out. I need Trey back. I need them all by my side and ready to fight for me.

No pressure, right?

•••••••••

REVIEW: POWER SURGE is the fourth instalment in Kennedy L Mitchell’s contemporary, adult POWER PLAY romantic, political suspense series focusing on attorney/ now US president Randi Sawyer, and Secret Service agent Trey Benson. POWER SURGE should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up immediately after the events and cliff hanger of book three POWER SWITCH.

NOTE: If you have not read the previous instalments, there may be some spoilers in my review.

SOME BACKGROUND: A few years earlier Randi Sawyer became the vice-presidential running mate to Kyle Birmingham, a man whose dirty politics run deadly and deep but in doing so Randi has angered a very powerful man who is determined to destroy our story line heroine. Now in the position as the US President, Randi continues to find herself the target of some very powerful people.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Randi and Trey) POWER SURGE picks up immediately after the events of book three wherein the abduction of the president’s daughter has left Trey Benson struggling with a direction in life. No longer on the president’s protection team, Trey battles between head and heart until Randi takes a stand demanding Trey and Tank return to her side. As Randi struggles to navigate the office of the US president, a potential war looms on the horizon, a war that could potentially spell doom for the USA. What ensues is the rebuilding relationship between Trey and Randi, as Trey’s need to protect Randi is jeopardized by our heroine’s need to ‘go it alone’, a need that places Randi in constant danger from both outside and inside her protective circle.

POWER SURGE is a story of betrayal and vengeance, secrets and lies, power and control. The premise is intriguing and captivating; the characters are energetic and colorful; the romance struggles in the face of duty, perception and vulnerability. As per my previous reviews, I have to question the number attempts on our heroine’s life, attempts that reflect badly on her security and the man that she loves, as well as our heroine’s refusal to take the advise of her protection team.

With the campaign over, a new devious challenge awaits.

I thought the toughest part was behind us. Stupid me. Now I have to live with the consequences of winning, some that make me regret ever stepping foot in this city. Day one in office I learn of the president’s true plan, one so manipulative I can’t allow it to come to fruition. But with zero allies to call on, I’ll need to work with my enemies to stand a chance at stopping him.

At least I have Trey, even if our scorching-hot affair can only happen in secret. Until the best part of my new life makes his own deal with a devil, I’m forced to make a choice. I can’t have it all in this power game they’ve woven, and watching me flounder is just part of their sick fun. Or can I play the game, change the rules, and have everything in the end?

Too bad for me, luck has never been on my side. It’s sink or swim here in DC, and I’m the idiot wearing cement shoes to the party.

•••••••••

REVIEW: POWER TWIST is the second instalment in Kenned L. Mitchell’s contemporary, adult POWER PLAY romantic, political suspense series. This is the continuing story of attorney/vice president Randi Sawyer, and thirty-eight year old, Secret Service agent Trey Benson. POWER TWIST should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up immediately after the events of book one POWER PLAY.

Some background: Months earlier Randi Sawyer became the vice-presidential running mate to Kyle Birmingham, a man whose dirty politics run deadly and deep but in doing so Randi has angered a very powerful man who is determined to destroy our story line heroine.

Told from three first person perspectives (Randi, Trey, Kyle) POWER TWIST follows in the wake of the US presidential election where small town attorney Randi Sawyer holds the second highest seat in the US government. As the new vice-president, Randi finds herself at odds with the current president’s beliefs and power, and as such Randi is targeted in more ways than one. With a controversial bill about to be passed, Randi is caught between Russian interference, the political and powerful elite, and the man with whom Randi has fallen in love but not all is well in Trey Benson’s life, as our hero has sold his soul to the devil to protect the woman that calls to his heart.

POWER TWIST is a story of secrets and lies, power and control; corruption, deception, and betrayal. The political elite and powerful oligarchs control everything and everyone at all levels of government-money talks, threats of death and attempted political assassinations are frequent, and yet, no one questions the numerous attempts on our heroine’s life-you will have to suspend reality throughout the story. The fast paced, premise is intriguing and engaging; the characters are colorful, energetic, powerful and strong; the romance is passionate but struggles in the face of secrets and threats to our heroine’s life. POWER TWIST ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

A bookworm at heart, Kennedy loves to snuggle up in bed or by the campfire with an unputdownable book. She began writing two years ago with Falling for the Chance and has no plans of stopping. Her novels are witty, action-packed, and offer enough steam for a great facial. If you like strong heroines and sexy, tattooed men who can’t keep their hands off them, then this author is the one for you.
