Constant Risk is very thrilling!!! Bree and Tanner head to Texas to help solve a case. The killer is sending videos of his victims slowly drowning. During all this, Bree is prepping for the trial with Jeter. The story picks up right where the last book, Security Risk, left off, so you do need to read these in order!
The action in Constant Risk was intense! I read this in one sitting because there is simply no way you could find a stopping point! Bree still struggles with social interactions and I think that makes her feel more realistic. She can be a bit robotic at times, but her inability to read social cues at times keeps her ‘real’. I also enjoyed seeing her get a bit jealous-again, it showed some character development for her to identify actions and behaviors around her.
If you enjoy thrillers with lots of action and danger, romance with an establish couple (but no on page sex), and a brilliant tech guru solving crimes, Constant Risk is a perfect binge read!
Terrific continuation of the Bree and Tanner series. I was hooked from the beginning in this fantastic combination of heart-pounding suspense and deeply felt emotions. I read it in one sitting and far too late into the early morning hours. In this book, the relationship between the socially awkward geek Bree and the charming deputy Tanner progresses quite well. Bree has learned a lot about relating to people and is getting better at showing her emotions – especially to Tanner. Tanner has fallen even deeper in love with Bree. He understands her quirks and finds her “big brain” sexy. He is very protective of her. He is also ready to take the next step and is adorably nervous about it.
But before Tanner can follow through, a call comes in from Detective Whittaker. Bree is desperately needed in Dallas to help find a killer. He transmits live feeds of his victims trapped in watery coffins, and they need Bree’s computer skills to track him down. There is no way Tanner is letting Bree do it alone, so he’s right there to back her up and take care of her. I loved how he was so tuned to her and the needs that she ignores when lost in her work.
The suspense of the story was a nail-biter. The feeling of the clock ticking as the team watched the coffin fill with water was intense. I could feel the Dallas team’s frustration as they ran into dead end after dead end. Bree’s arrival added to the intensity as we see her totally lose herself in the quest to save the woman’s life. Just as it looks like they have it solved, an unexpected twist shows that it’s more complicated than they anticipated. I was on the edge of my seat as they raced to thwart the diabolical plot.
There was an added layer of complexity as Bree’s past continues to haunt her. Though her nemesis, Michael Jeter, is in jail, there is a strong feeling that he has plans in the works to alter that fact. That suspicion hovers in the background, and I spent the book waiting for that shoe to drop. When it did, it dropped with a vengeance that had me glued to the pages until it was all over. There had been no doubt in my mind from the earlier books about how evil Jeter was, and this book reinforced that. It also showed how deep Bree and Tanner’s love for each other was. The ending was fantastic, with Tanner’s “perfect moment” just right for them. I love that they can move forward now without the fear that Bree had felt for years. I can’t wait for the conclusion of the series.
Though this book can be read as a stand-alone, the experience is much richer if you read the first two books before this one.
I can’t say enough about this couple. The connection Tanner and Bree have is so special and is imperative with all the problems they seem to run up against. The suspense is substantial and has you on the edge of your seat. This time is it Bree’s past that is creeping up on them and Tanner has to look out for Bree before her past catches her and take her away from him. The Organization is always watching! The ending of this story was so great-you will really enjoy it.
I have thoroughly enjoyed this series just as much as Janie’s other series. They are always a page turner and a joy to read. I received a copy and I am voluntarily leaving my own honest opinion.
Bree’s computer skills are desperately needed in Dallas. A serial killer, who has already drowned two women, is sending the police live feeds of the next victim. Tanner is concerned that this may be too much for Bree after the trauma she has survived, but Bree needs to help save this woman. Meanwhile, Bree is concerned about the witness testimony she will give in regards to the man who held her captive for many years. She won’t feel truly safe until he is locked up forever. Will Bree be able to save the woman? What if the serial killer has partners or other victims…time is running out. When Bree faces danger that she thought was past, will she and Tanner make it out alive? Absolute non-stop suspense as Bree and Tanner face their greatest challenge. I received an advance review copy at no cost and without obligation from the author. (by paytonpuppy)
This book grabs you by the throat and doesn’t let go. Bree and Tanner are called to assist with tracing a serial killer who is streaming video of his slowly drowning victims. As if that’s not awful enough, then Bree’s nemesis is involved in a bus wreck while being transferred from jail to prison. Did he escape? Is he coming after Bree?
I received a free review e-copy of this book with no strings attached. It’s a real thriller romance!
What a story. It is full of intrigue, suspense, mystery, and romance. Bree Daniels is tasked to find 4 women before they drown. She uses all of the computer skills she has learned to try to track them. Tanner worries it will be too much for her, especially when they get bad news. Can she do what is expected of her? Can Tanner keep her safe? The story and the whole series has wonderful characters and a great plotline.
Had me gripping the edge of my seat
Bree, genius hacker turned waitress, and Tanner, the Captain of the county Sheriff’s department, have moved on from most of the aftermath dealing with the Organization left. As the story progresses Bree’s past continues to haunt, their future seems to get even more murky, and thinking outside the box could possibly save them all. Janie Crouch’s Constant Risk had me gripping the edge of my seat hoping that they could come out the other end of yet another perilous case that put both of their strengths to the test. I hope the next adventure is just as riveting.
I received a free copy of the book from the author. I had the opportunity to review or not.
Constant Risk is the third book in a stand alone series and it is so good. Bree and Tanner are such a great couple. This book is full of edge of your seat excitement. I got so caught up in this story! Bree gets to use her amazing computer brain to attempt to help others in this book. She may not be a people person but she has a heart of gold . She would do anything to help others even if it puts her own health and wellbeing at risk! Tanner is her rock and stays by her side and takes care of her! He’s handsome, strong, smart, and a big teddy bear to Bree! I highly recommend this book!
Constant Risk is the second book in Janie Crouch’s “risk” series–I think this is her best series yet. Constant Risk continues the story of Tanner and Bree, a small town lawman and a computer genius who battle desperate odds to find a serial killer and save the victims. You dont really have to read the 1st book (Security Risk), but why miss all the fun of reading the “whole” story instead of the short recap you get when you begin book 2. Constant Risk has numerous twists and turns that will keep your eyes glued to the page. And don’t worry, there’s not a cliffhanger…BUT… You will become addicted to Janie Crouch’s writing–if you’re not already.
The signs of a great series is it gets better and better each book, its fresh, not stale. I think Constant Risk is the best one yet. I am guessing book 4 will knock me over. I digress. This can be read as a stand alone but I recommend reading books 1 and 2 first. We see Bree and Tanner connect a little more. They do start off crossing wires, which had me hmmphing, but it quickly took off. Brees expertise is needed. The corker is the book starts with Jeter and all the way through your sitting hunched over, waiting for him to attach you as you are dealing with the crisis of another nature. And that crisis, is gut wrenching at times. There were pure Bree moments, “the victim is inconsequential” even though that was not what Bree meant. Tanner was there to translate. Your fears come true, Jeter attacks, but not you. This was true suspense, the crisis they were dealing with, the back plot with Jeter, and even Bree and Tanner crossing wires. I read this in one setting and thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you Janie Crouch for the arc. All thoughts and opinions are my own and were unsolicited.
One of the best things about Ms. Crouch’s books is that they inevably make my brain spin trying to figure out what is going to happen next. Sometimes I can but usually it takes me by surprise and Constant Risk is just such a book. I love Bree, with her super intellegence but awkward social skills and Tanner’s patience and strength, making them one of my all time favorite couples. Constant Risk is a true nail biting, edge of your seat thrill ride. Buckle up, buttercup, you’re in for a hell of a ride. Enjoy!
I literally could not put this book down. This is book 3 in the Bree and Tanner series and while the first 2 were very good, this one topped them both. I absolutely cannot wait until book 4 is released. Action, love and a lot of suspense add to the anticipation of what is going to happen next. So good!!
Wow! Thought I’d read the best book in this series last time but wow, this one really grabbed me. Very impressed. Very tense and on the edge suspense and just when it seemed to be over and things could settle down; in True Janie Crouch style it turns kick ass to spike up the action right to the very last words. Kind of sad there is only one more book in this series. I really enjoyed this. I really enjoy how different Bree is, but also how protective Tanner is of Bree, and respects all her differences. Such great characters. Can’t wait to see what is in store for the last book in the series.
This was an ARC and I am very happy to leave this honest review.
I can’t get enough of Tanner and Bree…
Exciting emotional makes you heart beat faster kinda story.
Tanner and Bree are on the hunt again. They head to Dallas to help catch a serial killer.
And Just when Bree and Tanner are ready to move forward with their relationship the past comes back to haunt them.
Jeter may be locked up awaiting the trial but he has one hand left to play. He may just hold all the cards.
“I voluntarily received this arc book for an honest review”
This is the third book in this series and like its predecessors it is a thrill a minute suspense ride and yes while it can be read as a stand alone there is so much detail in the previous books that I feel you really need to read them first
The love between Bree and Tanner is growing all the time in fact Tanner is trying to find the perfect moment to propose to the woman that he knows will be his for the rest of his life. Meanwhile in this latest latest case Whitaker (Book 2)has asked for the help of Bree so Tanner takes her to Texas where someone has placed a woman in a box that is filling drop by drop with water Will Bree be able to solve where she is with enough time to save her At the same time things are hotting up with Micheal Jetter (Book 1) he has secured a plee deal will he come after Bree once again. While this is a pulse pounding romantic suspense the emphasise is on romance as once again we see the love that is so strong between Tanner and Bree
This book proves why the author is in a league of her own.
So much thought and technical info went into this book, so much so that it makes you really stop and think to grasp it all.
Once you have you’ll be mind blown of how she has managed to weave all the different plot lines together.
Would give more stars if I could.
Constant Risk
A Bree and Tanner Thriller Miniseries #3
Janie Crouch
Bree’s computer expertise is desperately needed in Dallas. She and Tanner travel there to try and save a woman’s life. From there on out the twists, turns, suspense, and heart stopping events keep you riveted to the story.
Each book just surpasses each other and can’t wait to see how their story continues.
Janie has done it yet again! This is book 3 of the Bree and Tanner books and it’s as awesome, if not better than the first two. This can be read as a standalone book, but it would be much better if you read at least the first one, Calculated Risk, before reading this one. Janie takes you through a very tense, emotional ride in this book. Bree and Tanner are trying to stop a murder in Dallas and it’s going to take all Bree’s computer talents to figure this out and save a life. I couldn’t put the book down and couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. I’m enjoying the pace of the romance in these books and can’t wait for the final book.
As much as I enjoyed the 1st two books in the Bree and Tanner Thriller series, I absolutely loved Constant Risk, book 3. The intensity of the storyline was especially high and definitely a page-turner, but I think it was the emotions between Bree and Tanner that really resonated. Bree still had her socially awkward moments, but the awareness of it has progressed and she is now able to show her increasing emotions toward Tanner. And Tanner is so so good with her, he totally understands her and loves all of her quirks. I loved the progression in their relationship so much.
As to the suspense portion, it was seriously intense and nail-biting. I was pretty much on edge throughout the book. Bree and Tanner are requested to travel to Texas to assist in finding and saving the lives of women who are being abducted and drowned and it was being shown on a hourly live feed. What these law enforcement officers and Bree had to watch sounded excruciating. The twists and turns had me spinning, it was all so awesome! I remember at one point I thought all was resolved and saw that I was only 40% in the book! Then to add to this, an enemy Bree had helped capture in the previous book, causes more havoc.
Constant Risk was another suspense driven book that definitely kept me at the edge of my seat until the very end. And the love that Bree and Tanner have for each other was really showcased here. I can’t wait to see what is going to happen next. I definitely recommend this one and all the others too.
Reading more about Bree & Tanner is always a pleasure. i love to see how both characters are evolving along the series as well as their relationship becoming deeper and deeper. At this point they do understand each other not perfectly yet but so much better than before still some misunderstanding are possible and those made me smile as it was so cute.
This investigation isn’t related to their past, even if it’s never too far, as they are asked to help in a series of murders and kidnapping in Dallas where Bree genius mind is their last hope , Tanner just tag along to help her adjust to stranger and kind of act as a emotional translator . Not that it will stay that simple of course.
This is a real page turner , i loved the intrigue and how the author gave us more to expect before diverting us to another lead once more to keep us on our toes. There were humour with Noah and Tanner ‘s banters and other moment but also some sweet ones to balance with the heavy suspense part. Really a must read this could work as stand alone but i can’t recommend you enough to read this whole series in order.
