Happy Friday!
The book I’m featuring this week is:
Amazon | Goodreads
He’d never killed a woman in cold blood before, but now was as good a time as any.
Okay, this may come as a total surprise, but I haven’t read any of Ronie Kendig’s books before even though I’ve wanted to. *Insert shocked face here* I just received a copy of this one though so I’m quite excited to dig into it very soon! Plus I’ll get to meet the author next month at the Fiction Readers Summit in Grand Rapids, MI so I better get to it! 🙂
About the Book:
Once lost to history, the Book of the Wars has resurfaced, and its pages hold ancient secrets and dangers. Former Navy SEAL Leif Metcalfe has been tasked with capturing the ancient text, but a Bulgarian operative snatches it, determined to secure her freedom. When a series of strange storms erupt, they must form an alliance to thwart impending disaster.
About the Author:
Ronie Kendig is an award-winning, bestselling author who grew up an Army brat. She married her own hunky hero, who’s an Army veteran. After twenty-plus years of marriage, she and her husband have a full life with four children and a retired military working dog. Ronie’s degree in psychology has helped her pen novels of raw, broken characters.
Since launching onto the publishing scene, Ronie’s Rapid-Fire Fiction has hit the CBA Bestseller List, won the prestigious Christy Award, the RT Reviewers’ Choice Award, the HOLT Medallion, IRCA, FamilyFiction’s Readers’ Choice Awards, as well as being named an RT Book of the Year Nominee.
