Full disclosure, Riley Edwards wrote this book as fan fiction in MY world, but I LOVED it. Violet was amazing and was someone I totally wanted to be friends with. I love the way she writes and recommend any and all of her books! 🙂
In Redeeming Violet Riley Edwards has written the quintessential kick ass take names and put the bad guys in jail book and done it in her own amazing way. I could not put this book down. Jason and Violet…Omg they are truly perfect for each other. This book is an adrenaline filled thrill ride of terrorists, human trafficking, drug dealers, and treason juxtaposed with loyalty, Brotherhood, duty, Love and family. You never know how you will react to something until you are tested and Violet was truly tested and by many found wanting. I will give no spoilers but I will say she found herself between a rock and a hardplace and she did what she thought was right. Edwards writes with crisp and clear characters that are detailed and complex to give great weight to her story. Her secondary characters are full fledged and it was fun to get a glimpse of my favorite team Wolf, Cookie, Dude, Tex and the others. This book is a great addition to Susan Stoker’s Kindle World and done with great finesse by Edwards. Do not miss this book or you will miss a great story.
Another home run out of the park book
Ms. Riley has never disappointed me with the quality of her books. This one is no different. Break out your tissues towards the end, because it’s heartbreaking. The Tecumseh poem at the beginning of the book is one of my favorites and worked beautifully in this story. Now I need to go deal with my runny nose from my ugly cry.
Just wow. No words. Loved the story. Jaxon and violet were drawn to one another despite the shit storm around them. They didn’t trust her and she fought at every turn to explain her actions. She didn’t want them on her side but to just understand the why. And honestly military operate on sacrificing the fee for the many. She was trying to save over a hundred people. Yes she put people in danger but made sure they got help(Olivia). Loved how she kept saving Jas. And omg yay for Jas and linc. We knew because of the ending only their book. But the build up to it is still important. Loved learning about Declan and meeting him since I started with the gold series first before red. Omg I was in tears over the ending. Loved Zane and violet standing up for Eric. Cried tears of respect and sadness about those who sacrificed for our freedoms. Can’t wait for zanes book.
When Violet’s life turned upside down when she became a part in a game she never wanted to play in the first place, she finally seeks – well, not exactly help, but went to Zane, as she knew he’d be able to clear some of the mess she left. Unfortunately, she’s the traitor she never wanted to be, but doing what she thought was best, has her back against a wall. Fortunately, Jaxon gets to overcome his first impression of her and by time the team gathers around her to protect her. Very, very sad Last chapters nevertheless, I never would have expected…
She’s no wilting Violet
Violet approaches Zane at his house, as she’s in fear for her life. Unfortunately, it turns out she’s the CIA mole they’ve all been looking for Now, she has to explain why she needs their help and why she did what she did
Violet and Jaxon have a combustive chemistry from the word go and are definitely a couple I was looking forward to reading The final few chapters have me balling and looking for tissues as it was a bittersweet ending I’m looking forward to see what Riley has in store for Zane next
Sometimes we do all the wrong things for all the right reasons. For the he greater good is a term that gets thrown around a lot but in Violet Myers’ case she lives it. Her biggest downfall was her naivetě. It takes Zane and Jaxon, chiefly Jaxon, to school her. Jaxon Cain slowly sees Violet for what she is and trusting her wasn’t in the plan but the woman’s courage seems limitless. Those around have the capacity to forgive her even if she can’t forgive herself.
Danger, suspense, highly emotional
Redeeming Violet, the third book in Riley Edwards’ Red Team is a well written military romance with a riot of emotions. To say this one engaged me emotionally would be putting it mildly. The plot with Jaxon and Violet is highly intriguing and fraught with danger that showcases all the alphas of the Red Team along with some others from previous books as well. Great demonstrations of brotherhood at its best in a variety of ways; help and support namely comes when needed as well as when asked for.
I really enjoyed this book and all of the extra “stuff” taking place with new characters and an unexpected twist toward the end. For me, this unexpected twist was a real tear jerker, very emotionally written and conveyed the situation realistically with regard to the tough alpha warriors.
Throughout it all, despite the negative self-talk by both Jaxon and Violet, all is well in the end, a HEA in the works. Best of all, another story is waiting to be devoured!
Violet did things she isn’t proud of, because she felt she had no choice. While she may have done things the wrong way at first, she works her butt off to make everything right. There is one hot ALPHA male who did not expect to fall in love with a trouble maker, but he fell hard and fast. This is a great book of love, forgiveness, and kicking ass
This is a great book. Lots of action, hot alpha males scumy bad guys and steamy sexy scenes. I’m loving finding out about each team member of the group and can’t wait for the next one.
This was a great book. I had tears at the end. Being a vet it was hard for me. Jaxon’s team thought Violet was a traitor, she was but not all is as it seems. There is danger at every turn, losses and saddness.
I love this book! No, I mean I really LOVE this book.
Violet is one of those characters that makes you want to strangle her in the beginning. As everything starts to unravel around her and the truth starts to come to light, you can’t help but feel for her.
Jaxxon is an alpha all the way. I mean ALL the way! He is as honest as the day is long, and struggles to understand Violets actions.
When these two meet, you know sparks will fly-things will burn, and boy do they burn. They say actions speak louder than words, but will they when the betrayals and secrets are revealed ??
A must read for any black ops fans!!

Just finished Redeeming Violet earlier this morning, like 2am. What a story, Nightstalker gave you the back drop of this close knit team. Protecting Olivia gave a you more of an insight to the team and it’s working. However this just weaved it’s way in between the other two giving more answers to events in Nightstalker. Just a far warning to have tissues on the ready for the Epilogue and try not to read while in bed, lol. Thank you for how you paid tribute to a fallen hero I have seen this/heard this and can tell you I jump everytime at the 21 gun salute.
This is my review to Amazon, and without giving anything away cause I really don’t like when people give the story away before you even read. Thank you for a great read.
Awesome series….Love the Seals…xoxo
