I absolutely loved everything about this latest book in the LSERT series!!! The connection that Karsyn and Tucker was immediate and burning bright even after Tucker broke it off breaking Karsyn’s heart. Both have things in their past that makes them hesitant to open up and trust. Tucker realized pretty quickly that he made a mistake letting Karsyn go and he has been keeping a watchful eye over her, sending messages in hope that she will give him a chance and hear him out. When a chance fundraiser gives them the opportunity to spend time together, Tucker sees this as his chance to win Karsyn’s heart and show her that he can be the man she needs and deserves. Can they both move past the pain and give love another chance?
Their story was heart wrenching in a good way. I was hooked from the very first page and hated to see it end. I laughed, cried, swooned at the steamy hot moments. I loved this story so much and I highly recommend it to everyone. I can’t wait to see what this talented author comes out with next. Well done!!!
I loved this book. First off, when I finally read Karsyn’s story it broke my heart; and it appears Tucker didn’t have the best life either. And of course, as always, Laramie Briscoe wrote the most wonderful story to bring them together, which included lots of old friends. Love, love, love her books so much.
I adore every chance I get to spend time in Laurel Springs. To get to spend it with such complex characters as Tucker and Karsyn makes it an extra special pleasure. Both of them have ghosts in their pasts that make forming a strong, healthy relationship a challenge. Watching them work through the challenges between them, seeing them grow, is exactly why I will read everything this author ever produces. She says right up front that she’s taken artistic license with some of the realities of the situation, but I was so caught up in the drama and emotions of the book that I certainly wasn’t paying any attention to pesky details like realism. Tucker may start the book behaving like a jerk, but by the end, he’s a romantic glob of marshmallow. And Karsyn’s just amazing. Period. Start to finish. I loved the ending to this story and I’m already dying to get my hands on the next one in the series.
I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book from the author through Give Me Books Promotions.
Enigma is bk 3 in the LSERT series by Laramie Briscoe. This is Tucker and Karsyn’s story. I have been dying for their story since we were introduced to them. I couldn’t wait to get their book and wow, their book definitely lived up to what I expected. Tucker and Karsyn have this instant connection/ chemistry together. Their pasts affect how they live their lives, have relationships and deal with things. Theirs is a deliciously sweet, emotionally charged and beautifully written 2nd chance romance. Without giving any spoilers away, you get the thrills, twists, feels, steam, sweet and funny, heartbreaking and heartwarming which leads to a HEA. Tucker and Karsyn have just become my my favorite couple in this series.
My Rating: 4.5 stars *******
Enigma was a great 5 star read and book three in the Laurel Springs Emergency Response Team series. I was pulled right in by Laramie’s writing and didn’t put it down until I was done.
My heart broke in the very beginning when we first meet Tucker and Karsyn. We then jump ahead a little over a year and Tucker is regretting the choices he made that day. He has been watching Karsyn and sending her flowers and messages hoping to hear from her.
Karsyn was finally putting herself back together again, she was trying to move past Tucker and the hurt. When these two end up working on a fundraiser for the K9 units things start to ignite again. Can Tucker convince Karsyn to give him another chance? What will happen when Tucker finds out Karsyn’s secret?
Overall I really loved this book. There were twists and turns when Karsyn’s past comes back to haunt her that added a great element to the story. We get some steamy moments as well. I really liked these two and I’m happy with how things came together in the end. I would love to see more from them. I look forward to reading the next book in the series. Thank you Laramie for another great read. 1-click and get started today.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book.
This series has save me a time or two in fact the author has more than once with her novels. Cartwheel city when I seen this one. Karsyn and Tucker will unravel us in this one with their story as it unfolds. This is also a second chance that will could come together. The things that got in the way before were of the mind but now we are hoping the heart will take over and win as the drama unfolds tearing us apart at times. This author always has a way of taking me to the top and give me all there is. Other elements are in this with it being a read that satisfies to the fullest.
Tucker and Karsyn’s story is the very definition of you don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone, and Tucker is certainly regretting his commitment issues. This third book in the series is much like its predecessors – high on romance, and pretty low on angst. There is some, of course, and this one does hit on a tough subject, but Tucker is just the guy to see Karsyn through it all. This series of romances is all about the couples, so any danger or intrigue in the storyline is sure to somehow bring the couple closer together. So, the focus in this one is the love story between Tucker and Karsyn. That said, Enigma does have a bit more excitement and danger for the town than the earlier books, and as the author warns at the beginning, liberties are taken to further the story. So, I would say to enjoy it for what it is – a solid romance that you can escape into without worrying about reality. I know I did, and I loved Tucker and Karsyn.
I fell for Tucker from the beginning and I loved him even after I closed this book. Some books just stay with us a long time after we are done, this was one for me.
Enigma is a story that will at times leave you breathless and fully consumed. Tucker is a man scared of the power of love but when his fear keeps the reason for his heart to beat at arms length, it’s time to be strong and vulnerable all at once. Karsyn and Tucker both need to come clean, open their hearts and finally accept that without each other life has no meaning. A story that is flirty, a little dirty, drama filled and overflowing with love and passion.
I have loved these characters since the MTF series. The LSERT team is right up on par. To see our previous MTF work with the LSERT team, just icing on the cake. Karsyn and Tucker’s story had me completely addicted. The K-9, Major, plays a great roll in these two life that I adore.
Enigma gives you the angst, romance, the moments, the intensity, and a spark that makes you want to get to the next chapter to see what will happen next. The world fades to the background while you are lost in Laurel Springs.
Tucker makes a huge mistake and a year later, he will not let anything stop him from getting his girl back. Karsyn has a past that is dark and scary. Where true monsters exist. It was heartbreaking but Karsyn trumps it and starts to live.
There were a few action scenes that had my heart pounding. The speed chase, the plans being made, the adrenaline you can feel through these characters. I love this book and can’t wait to see what will come next!!!!
Tucker and Karsyn had a great relationship until Tucker let Karsyn leave because he wasn’t ready to commit to a serious relationship. A year later Tucker realizes how foolish he was to let Karsyn get away and wants to work on a second chance. Will things work out? Can Tucker be the strength that Karsyn needs to get through a rough time? Another wonderful read in this series.
I received a copy of this book and am leaving a review.
Enigma: a person who is mysterious, puzzling or difficult to understand – that is Tucker!! He doesn’t know love and doesn’t recognize it so when things start getting serious with Karsyn he breaks it off.
Tucker you not only broke Karsyn’s heart but you broke mine too!!
He can’t seem to completely let go – he sits outside her apartment, he sends her flowers – basically stalks her. He’s started to realize he can’t live without her. Can he win her back? Can he admit he’s capable of love? Can he let himself be vulnerable enough to show her he’s serious?
It was so good to come back to this world. It was like getting back together with old and new friends. This book was about Karsyn and Tucker and we have met them both before. I really liked how they went back together after their break up. Also how they make it work on second time. There is one thing what I like Laramie Briscoe’s books and it’s that there is no annoying drama between characters. They know what they want and they are ready to work for it.
*ARC for honest review*
I love being back in Laural Springs! I have loved and devoured every book in this series, but Enigma is my favorite so far! Tucker and Karsyn’s story was amazing! Starting off the book with a break-up was so intriguing! Major was such an added bonus for this story – I love him! From beginning to end this story is pure perfection! I loved watching this couple overcome their own obstacles to find their HEA! AMAZING!!
Tucker had a rough upbringing. He is now not only a K9 officer for Laurel Springs Police Department but the K9 trainer. He meets Karsyn and they start dating. When she expresses her strong feelings, his past tears it’s ugly head and makes him back off. A year later and he still regrets it. Can he get over his past and win her back? Laramie takes us emotional roller coaster with these two. We see them sweet, scared, vulnerable, frustrated, and protective. It is a must read!
This series just keeps getting better! Ransom and Nick captured my heart in the first two books, and I thought that it couldn’t get any better. Boy did Tucker ever prove me wrong in the best possible way!
Tucker and Karsyn are absolutely amazing together. I loved watching them work past what separated them in the past. The have a chemistry that will heat up the pages of your kindle, and keep you turning the pages.
Enigma can be read as a stand alone but if you haven’t read the others in this series, you definitely should. I loved this one and can’t wait to see what comes next!
I love the men of the LSERT!! The chemistry between Tucker and Karsyn is off the charts even when they are fighting. Tucker is a K-9 handle her and train her with the Laurel Springs PD and Karsyn works at a doctors office. These two had explosive chemistry but Karsyn, is moving too fast for Tucker and he ends things without a peep. He regrets it almost instantly but his pride stands in the way of them getting back together. A year passes and they are thrown together in a work situation, will they be able to move on and put the past behind them? Will Karsyn’s secret from everyone have them turning their back on her? One day and everything changes, will they be able to find the pieces? Such a good story and pulled at your heart strings at the same time. I can’t wait for the next installment of the LSERT men!!
I received a complimentary ARC – early release copy of this book in Kindle format from the author for review purposes.
This is book 3 in the series and star new in town Karsyn and Tucker. This their 2nd chance story and we really get to know Karsyn’s secrets in this story and why she acted the way she did in previous stories.
Her story is scary and sad and I loved how strong she was in facing her past and her future. Tucker when he gets out of his own way is a very awesome character and I loved how there he is for Karsyn.
One thing I loved about this story is that Karsyn ends up being the true hero in this story. She doesn’t just own her history and get over it but she actually becomes the hero and saves the day. This was an awesome story and I loved how she faces her past with her strength.
Another book from Laurel Springs Emergency Response Team and I suggest you grab a cuppa, sit back and thoroughly enjoy this second chance at love story with a wonderful small-town atmosphere.
Karsyn Fallaway and Tucker Williams have a prior history but it ended badly, now Tucker is determined not to ruin things again but he needs to convince Karsyn to give him a second chance.
I enjoyed the straightforwardness of both characters and their ‘no rubbish, only honesty’ policy. Both have a great sense of fun but Tucker’s is a little more naughty at times. Together they have sensational chemistry, but more than that, they work hard to deepen their relationship.
Major the K-9 dog Tucker trained and looks after- as well as uses in his work, absolutely steals the show in this book. What a total sweetheart! Rambo, the other dog is too, they just melt your hearts.
I did find myself chuckling in some of the scenes, especially the one where Ransom describes when Rambo wants to get some love and affection alongside Stella! For most of the book, the pace is quite calm, but then when the action starts things really heat up and the pace becomes much faster. That particular part of the story is also ‘sit on the edge of your seat’ exciting too.
A feel-good, light love story that I found thoroughly entertaining.
Reviewer: Robyn
Tucker and I met for the first time when he pulled me over for speeding, then he broke my heart months later when he couldn’t return my feelings. Fast forward to a year and now he seems to want me back but how can I trust that and him? Karsyn has her own demons to battle with an evil from her past comes back. This story was so amazing and I couldn’t put it down. The chemistry between Tucker and Karsyn was off the charts hot. The characters in this book were carried over from previous books in this series but this can definitely be read as a stand alone. I highly recommend this book, series and especially this author. Laramie Briscoe is one author you don’t want to miss.
