Chasing the Diamonds

by Mary Martinez, Ldm Graphics (Illustrator)

Overview

When Senator Denning reaches out to Roni Staples to set up a meeting, she's intrigued.

His son is missing and there has been no ransom note. Not a good sign. She must find the senator's son, because the longer it takes, the less chance of a live rescue.

Sebastian Sosa is an easy going, singer songwriter. Life is good. Until someone uses his nightclub to lure a senator's son to kidnap him to gain information on two rare red diamonds.

What Roni doesn't need is a civilian tagging along. However, Sebastian is invested in finding the culprits. Even if he isn't a trained professional, he will help Roni in her investigation, despite her qualms.

Mary and her husband love to travel, especially to the Caribbean for relaxing, and Italy for the wine. And most recently she discovered she was Irish and Scottish, of course, they had to visit Ireland and Scotland. Mary fell in love with both, but the green hills of Ireland felt like home. With the experience from the exotic places she has visited, she is able to fill her books with colorful descriptions of cities, painting a colorful backdrop for her characters. One of her favorite US destinations is New York/Brooklyn, where her beloved Beckett's live. When she visits, she can wander their neighborhoods, favorite parks, and visit their favorite pub, Putnam's.

Editorial Reviews

The writing is expertly done. I love how the author only reveals tidbits, so the reader is in the dark, just like the main characters. The tension is high as is the intrigue. The more I read, the more I couldn't stop reading. Seriously, I lost sleep while reading.
If you're looking for an unforgettable romantic suspense, pick up Chasing the Diamonds. I loved every minute while reading and I can't wait for the next book in the series.
