Kelsey Quinn set out to trace a murder victim. Now she may become one.
The dead don’t speak, but Kelsey knows their secrets. As a forensic anthropologist at the Delphi Center crime lab, Kelsey makes it her mission to identify bodies using no more than shards of bone, and her find at a remote Philippines dig hints at a sinister story. When Kelsey’s search for answers puts her at the scene of her exfiancé’s murder, only one man can help her. The same man who broke her heart just months before, and who is also a prime suspect. Faced with an ultimatum— Kelsey or his job—Gage Brewer did the only thing a Navy SEAL could . . . but that doesn’t mean he stopped wanting Kelsey. Now Kelsey is running for her life and Gage is her last line of defense. As the threats escalate, Kelsey realizes this conspiracy goes deeper and higher than they could have guessed. With the clock ticking down on a madman’s plot, the slightest misstep will have unthinkable consequences. . . .

I've been waiting for this book....it was great! Griffin never disappoints. Her Tracer series is a great read. No need to read them in order, but I do recommend reading all of them. Great suspense, mystery, and of course - romance! Patiently waiting for the next one.

For me the only thing wrong with a Laura Griffin novel is there are not enough of them. Love Gage and Kelsey.

This is my first book by Laura Griffin, and I loved it. A great romantic suspense story about terrorism. This story was filled with a lot of action with twist and turns. There is more suspense than romance, but the romance was very sweet. I will definitely be reading more from this author.

Laura Griffin tells a wonderful story. It keeps you on the edge of your seat and is wonderfully written. The suspense keeps you guessing as to who the bad guys and good guys are. At the end I wanted to tell her to keep the story going. I am looking forward to another Tracers Series book.
Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.This is the first book by Laura Griffin I’ve read. I wasn’t sure what to expect but I was not disappointed. There were several twists and turns. It was very intriguing to see how the author was able to weave a love story into a tale about domestic terrorism and deceit. The characters were well written and the action moved along like a classic movie. One of the things I like about this book is that while it is a part of a series, it stands alone.
The relationship between Gage Brewer and Kelsey Quinn is complicated. He is a dedicated Navy Seal and she is a respected Forensic Anthropologist. Although Gage ended their relationship, he is thrust back into Kelsey’s life after he is framed for murdering FBI Agent, Blake Reid, Kelsey’s ex-boyfriend. Kelsey knows what really happened and has to go on the run to save her own life.
While on the run, it is discovered that the murder is just the tip of the iceberg. Wheels are set into motion for an Anthrax attack and the FBI is involved on both sides. In the midst of all of this, Gage and Kelsey have to confront the skeletons that still haunt them regarding their break-up and unresolved feelings for each other.
There is so much going on, you have to be sure to pay attention so you don’t miss anything. Without giving anything away, I will say this book has everything that a fan of both Romance and Suspense could ask for. The action keeps you on your toes while the romance lightens the mood. I look forward to reading other novels by this author.

SCORCHED is Laura Griffin at her best. The main characters, Kelsey and Gage, pull you into their lives and keep you on the edge of your seat. Between running for their lives and rediscovering the love they walked away from, they must uncover the truth behind Kelsey's ex-fiances murder. Of course having the FBI and the bad guys chasing you doesn't help. With a perfect mixture of suspense, danger, and romance, I highly recommend this book.

I preordered, had $ drafted out, have book sitting in online and hardware AND have emailed customer "support" about this issue and I still cannot open this dang book! Anyone have any tips? The READ button is NOT there. Just manage and write a review. Ive tried archiving it and unarchiving it, but i dont want to delete it then get stuck paying for it again without reading it at least once! (Im a big rereader)

This is a good read. Ms. Griffin spends a fair amount of time explaining relationships between characters, but that ultimately helps us understand and relate to them.

Once Ms. Griffin got beyond explaining the relationships of the characters the story line became intriguing. I have read the series, and will continue to read Ms. Griffin's books.

Love Laura Griffin's books! She combines a high level of action and suspense with believable romance. My only caveat is that the Tracers series is becoming a bit too formulaic and predictable. I love her earlier books and would like to see a stand-alone or something that doesn't involve forensic science or the Delphi Center in the future.

Ass all of the other Tracer series, this was an awesome read! Action packed, didn't want to put it down, read it too fast and can't wait for the next book to come out.
