New and notable author: Edie James

  I use Goodreads a lot, and they pop up recommendations of books similar to ones I leave reviews for. It kept recommending this author's books to me. To be honest, I didn't realize they were Christian fiction. There is nothing about them that doesn't sound Christian, but I had never heard of her and just assumed it was not. I finally checked her books out, and discovered they are Christian fiction, and that they sounded really good. She is still a fairly new author. Her first book, Hard Landing, came out in August 2020. 

James has two series: The 8 book Hope Landing Series and The 5 book MacKenzie Cove Series. The first series is completed, but there is one more book coming out in June in the MacKenzie Cove Series. All of the Hope Landing Series has Landing in the title, and all of the MacKenzie Cove Series has the word Rising in the tile.

Starting in March 2022, I read the whole Hard Landing Series on Kindle Unlimited, then went on to read the only book out in The Mackenzie Cove Series, Rising Storm. I loved all of the books. Really loved them. The Hard Landing Series is about a group of guys that provide security and protection. The MacKenzie Cove Series is about a family of 5 siblings that are all in some sort of law enforcement.

In January, I bought the whole Hard Landing Series and the first three MacKenzie books in paperback, and read them all again. (Told you they were really good.) Book four in The MacKenzie Cove Series has not come out in paperback yet. I) emailed the author in January asking when the paperback would be out for book #4, and she said it was supposed to come out the next week. It still has not come out. Sigh.

All of James' books are suspense, my favorite genre'. I like her characters, and the books have a lot of action and suspense. The two series are different, but both are excellent reading. I don't think I could pick a favorite book....or even series. I totally loved all of the books I have read of hers, and hope she has more books coming after her upcoming release later this month, Rising Hope.

And speaking of Hope.....I hope book #4 comes out in paperback soon.

Don’t let the smile fool you. She spends way too much time considering murder, mayhem, and former Navy SEALS with private jets and high tech toys.
