I almost skipped this book. Can you believe it?! I was reading through Jacob’s library of awesomeness and I almost skipped this one. Well, I’m sure glad I didn’t! It’s one of my top favorite reads of his for sure. Learn from my almost mistake and read it! Great suspense with twists and turns, plus I’m a sucker for age gaps. LOVED it!!
This book had me hooked right from the start. I don’t read a lot of suspenseful romances and I would definitely read more books like this from this author. The storyline was very well-written and filled with the right mix of suspense and romance. The chemistry between Nash and Zoe was undeniable and electric. The romantic moments had me swooning. I felt all the emotions of the characters – sadness, anger, love, and happiness; they were so palpable. I loved their witty banter and the humor had me laughing often too. The suspenseful moments had me on the edge of my seat and anxiously waiting to see what would happen. I really enjoyed this book and didn’t want their story to end! A definite must read!
I loved this story. Edge Of Retribution really shows Jacob Chance versatility as a writer. It is full of grit, edge of your seat suspense and heart-pounding action. It is evident that Jacob can write multiple genres and write them ever so well. This was intriguing and fast paced. There were moments of heartbreak and moments of suspense and my heart was pounding the entire time. I was pulled in from page one and could not put this book down.
The storyline is (as ever) extremely well written with two main characters that are strong, well-developed with a sizzling chemistry that will draw you into their world from the outset. Not to mention, the phenomenal supporting secondary characters who all have the potential of having their own stories. This story is so unbelievably action packed and an absolute thrill ride full of many twists and turns that will keep you guessing and on your toes all the way until the very end of the last page.
If you love authors that can give you a bit of everything then you will love Jacob Chance. Edge of Retribution is Jacob at his finest. This is fast paced thrill ride that keeps you on the edge of your seat until the end. All the feels wrapped in a romantic suspense package. 5 star.
One word to describe Edge of Retribution… EXCELLENT!!
This is by far my favorite from Jacob. This romantic suspense is an absolute page turner that keeps you on the edge of your seat and begging for more.
Zoe is the daughter of two FBI agents and has just went through a life changing event that leaves her under the surveillance of FBI agents at a safe house. Nash Garrison is one of the agents assigned to protecting Zoe until after the trials.
Zoe and Nash have chemistry from the beginning, but their current situations won’t allow them to be together. Fast forward six years to when Zoe becomes an agent, now that the circumstances are different Nash isn’t going to give up until Zoe is his.
From the very beginning I was hooked on this story, Zoe is one strong individual and I’m blown away by her actions. Nash is the kind of man you’d dream of having in your life, he is thoughtful and strong. This story is filled with everything from action, suspense and even romance blended so perfectly together you’ll never want to put your book down. This story had me gasping and holding my breath at times with the twists and turns I never saw coming. This story was written in such a detailed way that you can see the events taking place right before your minds eye. Bravo Jacob Chance! Just when I think you’ve written your best story yet you top yourself and present us with Edge Of Retribution. Everyone needs to grab this book and kick it up high on their TBR list. This is my unbiased and voluntary review.
I don’t even know how to begin. This story is completely different from what I’m used to reading from this author. The characters are nice. The writing flow is good. It just didn’t grab me. I am going to say read it for yourself. You may like it.
I must say there is nothing quite like a Jacob Chance suspenseful romance. Especially curled up on the couch with your feet up. Ok That last part May of just been a personally preference but it’s my way of saying I’ve read a great book. One you can easily get lost in and Edge of Retribution is just such a book. It will keep you engrossed in the storyline and hoping for a happy ending as you turn the pages.
The author has given us a plot that easily flows as it takes you on Zoe and Nash’s journey. Nash is an FBI agent who comes into Zoe’s life when she is a lost, vulnerable 18 year old. Nash is part of Zoe’s protection detail and is there for her every step of the way as her world comes crashing down around her. Then after being forced apart due to one horrendous night, they are reunited six years later. A lot can change during a span of 6 years, but some things just seem timeless. Has fate brought Nash and Zoe back together for a chance at a normal life or is it the intricate workings of a killer looking for vengeance that has caused their paths to intersect once again?
2 Thumbs Up for a well written storyline with characters that will touch your heart and feel like family. This is a suspenseful romance that I highly recommend grabbing. You won’t regret it as the author carries you on a wild journey you won’t soon forget.
I do not like spoilers so I will try not to give any.
This book was a great suspenseful story that keeps you on the edge of your seat from start to finish with some twists I didn’t see coming. This book had me laughing, crying and cussing, so will written and full of action. Zoe and Nash’s story is a great read, I totally loved this book and will be rereading again soon.
Mr. Chance surprised me with this book. He did a remarkable job writing out of his norm. This was suspenseful, gritty and yet still sexy, arousing and hilarious as well. Zoe and Nash were penned really well. I loved the dual POV’s. I’m looking forward to reading more on the secondary characters.
This was an excellent book with a great story line and amazing characters. It is full of action and you can’t put it down.
I am embarrassed to admit that this is the first book by Jacob that I have read. I know, I know, let the public shaming commence! If I gauge his previous books to this one, you can bet your sweet a&& I will be going back and reading more!
There is so few male romance writers out there I have been lucky to have been able to read some fantastic works and Jacob is right up there with the best of them!
This story is about Zoe and Nash, when they first meet under horrible circumstances, you can feel the chemistry between them and when they meet again years later, well the fire between them is alive and well!
This was an action packed story with just the right touch of romance, neither one is overwhelming. It’s the perfect blend.
Zoe is wise beyond her years and what she witnesses just makes her grow up all the faster. She is fierce, she is independent but has that vulnerability that will stay with her forever.
Nash is the perfect alpha hero, he is protective, swoony and goes after what he wants.
There are twists and turns that will keep you guessing till the end of the book. I am hoping to see more from the secondary characters (hint, hint…Belfast and Grace) read the story and you will agree!
I am so glad to have had the opportunity to read this story and you have a new fan in me Jacob! Well done! I tip my proverbial hat to you sir!
This Book Is a Must Read
I first read Jacob Chance in July 2016 with his Debut book Quake. I have followed his work since that point and love each time he releases a new book. His writing with each book just keeps getting better and better and his characters and Storylines and so enjoyable and quite often entertaining.
Edge Of Retribution is Brilliant, it is a glimpse into a different side of Jacob Chance’s writing and not what you would traditionally expect. Having said that though I can’t wait to read more Suspense from him, he can quite easily slip between Hey the 2 genres and give you Sports Rom Coms that will have you in hysterics and at the same time deliver an Action Packed Suspense that will have you addicted. That’s exactly what EOR is, it will have you gripping every page to get more, it will quite often have you on the edge of your seat and heart in your throat.
The Book follows the story of Nash Garrison (Wait did I mention Jacob knows how to make you fall for his leading men? No, well he nails it every time.) Nash is an FBI agent assigned to Serve & Protect his latest case Zoe Thomas (Who just happens to be a very headstrong and determined teenager and Daughter of 2 well respected FBI agents) the angst and the fight this book has, has kept me riveted until the last page , I loved the storyline, the leads and sub characters and I LOVED the twists.
I’m not going into detail of the story other than to say this, it is absolutely not what you would expect, it is Suspense at its absolute damn finest. It was addictive to the point that when I had to stop reading for work I couldn’t stop thinking about it. There were parts I didn’t see coming until they hit me in the face and I remember thinking #NailedIt.
I cannot recommend this book enough, you will devour it.
Get ready to One Click this amazing book, Jacob Chance just changed the game!
I loved Edge of Retribution! Great cast of characters: Zoe, Nash, Karyn, Georgia, Martin, Tasha and Belfast.
The story grabbed me from page one and shocked me. From zero to sixty in one chapter. I loved the intensity between Nash and Zoe, even though it was the right person at the wrong time.
And six years later, the excitement and action ratchet up again! Only this time they are ready for each other. But no one saw it coming. No one!
These three ladies and bad-a$$!! And Belfast?! Great character!!!
It was hard to put down and now I’m writing my review at 1230a! So good!
INCREDIBLE 5 STAR READ!!! Jacob Chance keeps you on the edge of your seat and turning pages in this romantic thriller. The storyline is incredible and so well written. The characters are remarkable and have great chemistry. Jacob grabbed my attention in the beginning and kept it until the very end. There are a few twists and turns in this one that will keep you on your toes. I highly recommend this book. I couldn’t put it down.
i loved this book. Jacob never disappoints.
Loved the suspense edgy feeling in this story, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and had it read in a few hours. Great job Jacob Chance!!
Great story! This is a change of pace for Jacob but he did an amazing job. Nash & Zoe were had great chemistry & a hot relationship. The crime story/suspense kept me pulled in. I didn’t want to quit reading until it was done. Excited for the next book, Belfasts story.
