“No one had shot at me in weeks, or beat me up. I hadn’t been
cut, punched, or slapped. No one threatened me, stalked me, or stabbed me. It
was a nice change.”
It’s been days after I’ve read Out of Turn by Tiffany Snow and I am still can’t stop thinking
about it. I am going to apologize now in
case this review turns into a bit of a rambling, gushing, Kade biased review. I
can’t help it…
Just when Kathleen was trying hard to get back on track
with her life and move on, danger has found her yet again and she gets sucked back into the chaos that is Blane and
Kade’s life.
But this Kathleen isn’t the same Kathleen. At least not at
the beginning of the story. This Kathleen is hurt, angry, a bit cold, and
emotionless. She doesn’t want to feel or
care, so she drinks a lot to dumb her pain. This is nothing like the warm
Kathleen that I have come to love. But I
could totally understand where she is coming from. Having your heart broken by
your ex-fiancĂ© because he didn’t have enough faith/trust in you can do that to
a girl.
I loved it! There
aren’t enough words out there for me to describe how much I thought this book
rocked. Seriously. Each book in the series has been better than the last. Out
of all four books, this one is the best one to me. There is plenty of action,
thrills, drama, and steamy romance.
“He closed his eyes and tipped his head back slightly. “I love
to hear you laugh,” he murmured. “Makes me think of springtime, and carnivals,
and being happy.” My smile faded. The things Kade said sometimes— they made my
heart hurt. “Aren’t you happy?” I asked. His eyes opened, their piercing blue
captivating me. “I am when I’m with you.” My heart seemed to skip a beat and
the small smile I gave him was watery. “Me, too,” I whispered, my throat
clogged with emotion.”
I am team Kade. I am desperately hoping that Kathleen ends
up with him, now more than ever. The last book in the series Point of No Return is slated to be
released in May 2014 and of course it cannot get here fast enough! I would
recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good romantic suspense storyline and
steamy romance.
RATING: 5 out of 5.

NO TURING BACK
Kathleen Turner, #1
Being a bartender by night and law
firm runner by day helps make ends meet for Kathleen Turner. Mostly. Being 23
and single in Indianapolis wasn’t exactly a thrilling adventure, but then
again, that’s not what Kathleen wanted. At least, not until she met Blane Kirk.
Navy SEAL turned high-profile attorney, Blane is everything a woman could want.
The only problem? He’s her boss. Blane
is known for playing the field and the last thing Kathleen needs or wants is to
get involved with him. But when her friend is murdered and it seems Kathleen
will be next, she may not have a choice. Now Blane is the only thing standing
between her and people who want her dead, including assassin-for-hire Kade
Dennon. Beautiful but deadly, he’ll kill anyone who gets in his way, even the
woman who makes him question everything he’s become. The deeper she sinks into
the web of lies and murder, the more Kathleen realizes she can trust no one if
she’s going to survive. No one is innocent. Not even Blane.
TURN ON A DIME - Blane's Turn
Kathleen Turner #1.5
Blane Kirk is a Navy SEAL turned
high-powered attorney with old money and an even older pedigree. Yes, he plays
the field, changing women as often as he changes his ties, but they’re not
complaining. He has only two rules – 1) Don’t date employees and 2) Don’t get
emotionally involved. Those rules have served him well. He sees no reason to
change his ways, until his Runner, an employee in his law firm named Kathleen
Turner, does an unexpected face plant in his lap.
Kathleen’s too young, too innocent, and suddenly much too vulnerable when her friend is murdered and Blane knows she could be next. Keeping her alive means keeping her close, but can Blane keep her safe...from him? Kathleen’s like no woman he’s ever met, and protecting her could be the one thing he never expected that would make his life turn on a dime.
TURN ON A DIME – BLANE’S TURN is a companion novel to NO TURNING BACK, Book One in The Kathleen Turner Series.

Kathleen Turner, #2
What Kathleen Turner doesn’t know
just may kill her. Her boyfriend, Navy SEAL turned high-powered attorney Blane
Kirk, is keeping secrets from her – the deadly kind – and it may end their
relationship before it’s even begun. Someone in the shadows is stalking and
terrorizing Kathleen, and Blane must lose a trial with far-reaching
ramifications if he wants to keep her alive. Blane turns to assassin-for-hire
Kade Dennon to keep Kathleen safe, a strategy that may backfire in more ways
than one. Though Kade swears he hates her, he’s helpless to guard against
things he’s never felt before and when they’re together, Kathleen sees
something forbidden in his eyes. Kathleen must find the truth behind the lies
before her time, and luck, runs out, or she may pay the ultimate price for
falling in love with Blane Kirk.
Kathleen Turner, #3
After her promotion from law firm
Runner to Investigator, Kathleen Turner is learning the ropes of her new job
from none other than assassin-for-hire Kade Dennon, a situation her boyfriend
Blane Kirk is none too happy about. But the lessons with Kathleen take a back
seat when Kade becomes a target. Previously untouchable, his enemies now know
of the chink in his armor – his brother’s girlfriend. And Kade’s not the only
thing coming between Kathleen and Blane. From Blane's inexplicable defense of a
man guilty of a horrible crime, to a mysterious stranger from Kathleen's past,
to Kathleen's risky investigation into human traffickers, the obstacles mount
against a relationship that's just begun to find trust again. While Blane
considers a job offer that would take him back to the front lines in the war on
terror, Kathleen is determined to pursue her new career, with or without his
approval. Unfortunately, her current case is far more dangerous than anyone
knows. Someone close to Blane will go to extreme lengths to split them up,
lengths that may prove worse than death for Kathleen. Kathleen, Blane and Kade
must atone for the sins of the past and the present. The fallout will force
Kathleen to a turning point...in her career, and her life.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
My debut novel,
NO TURNING BACK, is the first book in The Kathleen Turner Series. I write about
things I love to read myself - a heroine who could be a neighbor or best
friend; two men who each portray their own version of darkness and light, each
vying for her affection; and a story that focuses as much on the characters as
it does the suspense. NO TURNING BACK, TURN TO ME, TURNING POINT and OUT OF
TURN currently comprise The Kathleen Turner Series. The fifth and final book,
POINT OF NO RETURN, will be released in May, 2014. A companion novel, TURN ON A
DIME – BLANE’S TURN, is also available.
As for me, I've
been reading romance novels since I was way too young to read such things, have
an unhealthy obsession for all things Doctor Who, prefer Pepsi to Coke and
Absolut to both, think men who drink girly cocktails are wusses, have learned
to never stop believing in my beloved St. Louis Cardinals, and can recite the
entire scripts of When Harry Met Sally and Apollo 13. George Washington is
cool, Bon Jovi still rocks the house, and Bruce Willis is the ultimate
alpha-male hero. Most of all, romance never, ever gets old.
