read this book by tiffany snow and was not a fan of it, the writing style was good i just found the book not my cup of tea

I was a bit lost with this one until I realized it was part of a series. I must have overlooked that detail and unfortunately it hindered my enjoyment of the book. I will go back and read the first two, as I enjoyed this enough to want to read them.

3.5/5.0

Ms. Snow is one of the best love-triangle authors in the business! Add that to also being top-notch at writing romantic-suspense and that equals a wild ride almost every time a book of hers is opened.

I have especially loved this series because the heroine, China Mack, is a new twist on awesome. She is a nerdy, technical genius who wears glasses, flannel shirts and jeans. She is quirky and totally inept socially but that is just what makes her so sympathetic and lovable. She is truly (and believably) surprised when anyone thinks she's pretty, she is honest and open to a fault and doesn't know all the intricacies of the social game. BUT, her incredible intellect and abilities put her in all kinds of troublesome situations - something that will keep this series running hot for a long time to come...IF the author doesn't allow the love-triangle to dump the excitement into oblivion. It is that plot-line that drags this installment down - and that's surprising.

This story begins with Jackson showing China the most incredible Valentine's date imaginable. He is everything any woman would want and China repeatedly says how much she loves him. She goes along with everything whole-heartedly (including the hot sex) until he shows her an engagement ring.... From there her character totally changes. She treats Jackson horribly, leading him on, then kissing and encouraging another man. She lies to him, deceives him... the list goes on. What happened to our favorite heroine? I couldn't even like her in this book! And, she was the reason the stories have worked!

China's reasons for her actions slowly develop and make sense throughout the story. But, that whole nasty switch at the beginning left such a bad taste that I just wasn't able to overcome enough to like or care. And, that is sad because
I truly, truly wanted to.

After a magical and surprising Valentine's day with her boyfriend Jackson, China is sent reeling after an assassination attempt on the President. She immediately gets to work trying to find the culprit, only to find out the main suspect is her former co-worker/friend at Vigilance, Clark. When Clark suddenly reappears after months away, she knows she needs to work with him to clear his name. The action and suspense are again at the forefront of this novel as the whole gang (including China's niece) sets out on a road trip to warn Clark's former military partner that his life is in danger. China is faced with some serious injuries in this book and shows how tough and resilient she has become. She is strong and able to set her structured life aside for the unknown and danger that follows. The love triangle between China, Jackson, and Clark is prevalent in the book and has some surprising twists and turns as well. China has some much needed discussions with her family, in particular her father, which brings revelations about her lineage and leaves her with many more questions than answers. We also get some book time with our favorite Alpha men, Blane and Kade, which is just icing on the cake to an already exciting read. Looking forward to the final installment and how the loose ends that remain are tied up.

With a great suspense story, a sexy love triangle and smart, but awkward heroine that is very easy to relate to, Tiffany Snow's Find Me is a winner for a fun, fast paced read.

I absolutely love Tiffany Snow’s Books! Find me was no exception as we continue the journey of China! Fast past with a touch of romance and suspense. I can’t wait for the next installment!

The third book 'Find Me' was a lot more serious. The first chapter was too sappy for me but I knew that this was probably a sign of bad things to come. And I was right. The action started almost immediately and it didn't stop until the last few pages. China certainly gets dragged through the wars in this installment. This third book is much more serious than the first two. There isn't as much lighthearted banter and I missed the cuteness and the comedy.

There are also many twists and revelations that I wasn't expecting which really added to the mystery and suspense.

In relation to who will eventually win China's heart, I know who I am rooting for. China has a difficult decision to make in 'Save Me' and I can't wait to read it.

I adore most of Ms Bartol’s works, this series is no expcetion. She writes the perfect blend of romance and suspense; something that most authors fail to achieve. So as readers we are not left wanting more. Find Me, shocked me, surprised and left me wanting more. Bartol really changed the stakes in this one and I can’t wait for the next.

As the head of the government’s secret Vigilance spy program, computer guru China Mack already has her hands full when her billionaire boyfriend, Jackson Cooper, asks for one of them in marriage.

Thrown for a loop by the sudden proposal, China’s usually well-ordered life takes another hit when someone tries to assassinate the president. Even that comes with a shocking twist: the primary suspect is none other than her ex-partner, Clark Slattery. With nowhere else to turn, the sexy loner needs China’s help and expertise. Clark has linked the assassination attempt to a failed secret operation undertaken six years ago—and a deadly cover-up that’s putting the leader of the free world in the crosshairs. But the president isn’t the only one in harm’s way.

Now, China is going to have to dig deep for information that’s beyond even her clearance. And what she discovers may have far-reaching consequences for her life and everyone else in it.

I absolutely loved this book! A lot of my reaction to a book is emotional. Yes I do automatically check for errors. I can't help it and if I do find them, I let you know. But if there are none then it is all about how the book made me feel.



First and foremost is China. I can very easily relate to her and even put myself in her place though I am far from a genius. But she is torn between two good men and I have been there before and it is far from a comfortable place to be. I couldn't sit this book aside to go to sleep because I wanted (needed) to know her decision. There were some hard scenes before she made of her mind. Scenes that had me break down in tears. And I am still not sure that her mind is made up!



I highly recommend this book and this series to anyone that enjoys romantic suspense. It is extremely well written and very easy to fall head first into the characters themselves. If you haven't read the first two then I do recommend starting out with the first and working your way through the series.


*** I received this book at no charge from NetGalley in exchange for a fair and honest review. All opinions expressed within are my own.

China Mack is brilliant behind a keyboard but people? She is kind of awkward with them. She wears her geek like a badge of courage, especially with her t-shirts! But being awkward doesn't stop her from being in a love triangle with her boyfriend and her partner.

Jackson and Clark are the men in her life and she loves them both but in very different ways. I think she is genuinely lost as to who is the man for her. Lots of secrets are revealed in this story and there may be a few red herrings and twists and turns to play with your mind! Her reaction to a very romantic proposal is very China! As the auntie of autistic children, I definitely feel that China has Aspergers Syndrome and I love the way the author never really defines China as such, she is just China!

Mia is the grounding factor for China, she keeps her on Earth and makes sure she eats amongst other things, Mia is almost a parent for Mia not her niece!

While I'm still enjoying the characters I'm finding the scenarios less and less realistic. I still would love to know where China goes with her personal life though so I may keep reading.

Find Me is the third book in the Corrupted Hearts series. It is a fast moving and captivating story. Jackson and Clark are one thing that is a struggle for China, because she loves them both. When they find themselves in a threatening situation, they need to find a way to work as a team. This book may not be for all audiences as it has a love triangle. It was good.

Veronica – ☆☆☆☆☆
China is celebrating her first Valentine's Day with her boyfriend, Jackson, and he goes all out to impress. Unfortunately, their night is interrupted at a crucial moment when they find out the President has been shot and China has to rush off to work. She returns home to find Clarke hiding out at her place after someone tried to kill him. The same someone is also trying to kill Jackson and China. And so begins the hunt to find out who is at the bottom of the murder attempts of China and the two men trying to win her heart.

It must be said that Tiffany Snow is the queen of the love triangle. No one does it better. Usually by this point in a series I've chosen which guy I want the heroine to be with, but in this case I'm torn. I love them both. At one point I was even hoping maybe she could have both, but I guess that is just my fantasy.

There are several twists and turns in Finding Me that I didn't see coming and one I should have seen coming but didn't. I was too distracted by the romance and tension between the characters and the action to notice. That is the sign of a great story.

Find Me is another 5-star book in the Corrupted Hearts series. I loved every twisting, turning, and heart racing minute.

OMW!!! This book was such a great romantic suspense novel, i mean it even hit some of my fangirl heart strings. Two words HARRY POTTER! It was like she took Sheldon from big bang theory turned him into a female and gave him a job with the government and wrote a book that everyone would thoroughly enjoy.
If you're looking for a great romantic suspense novel with a little bit of fangirl pop culture this is your book. Great actions scenes. I was ensnared in this book from the very beginning.

Thank you very much to NetGalley and the Publisher for the advance copy of Find Me. I have read and LOVED all of Tiffany Snow's books to date so I couldn't wait to read Find Me. It is the 3rd book in the Corrupted Hearts series. Tiffany Snow is just the BEST at writing addictive and unforgettable love triangles buy I think I'm team Clark in this series!

I was blown away! This is book 3 in the series. It kept me engaged, sitting on the edge of my seat! I loved it!

Genre: Romance - Suspense, Love-Triangle
Stand-alone: Yes (mostly)
Part of a Series: Yes - Book 3 of 4 of the Corrupted Hearts Series. Although you can read this on its own it's way better if you've read the first two to appreciate China's growth as a character. And I'd highly recommend reading Tiffany Snow's Kathleen Turner series first (not necessary though just lots of treats, goodies, and Easter Eggs for fans which make this series even better)
POV: Mostly China's
Steam Level: Warm
5/5

Have you ever been so excited to read a book because you know it's going to be fantastic and then force yourself to read slower than normal in order to make the book last longer so you can savor it even more? Yeah, that was me with Find Me by Tiffany Snow. I've been a huge fan of Tiffany Snow and her work since I first read one of her books. China Mack is quickly becoming one of my heroines. I love her quirks, smarts, and eccentricities. I love how she has grown throughout this series and I especially love the Easter Eggs that Tiffany Snow has graced us with from her Kathleen Turner Series.

Romantic Suspense is, by far, one of my favorite genres. The mystery in Find Me is compelling and kept me on the edge of my seat throughout. The twists and turns are absolutely insane and you never know what will happen next. China Mack is tested throughout and proves over and over that she's a bada$$ and not to be messed with. When push comes to shove China uses her smarts to not only best you but also remind you that it's the small ones that you have to look out for.

While love triangles are not usually my thing, Tiffany Snow does them so well. The pain, confusion, and hurt are real and not glossed over. At the same time, this book isn't full of angst and "what should I do?" moments that can be annoying. I love both Jackson and Clark and both love China in their own ways. This book has definitely swayed me in one direction and I cannot wait for book four to come out to see how everything plays out.

As usual, an excellent job by Tiffany Snow, reminding me why she is one of my favorite authors. If you're looking for an action-packed romantic suspense with two hot alpha male and a small and feisty heroine then I highly recommend Tiffany Snow and her Corrupted Hearts Series.

This is the third book of the series, corrupted Hearts and it has everything I look for in a romance suspense story. From the first book, the characters have evolved to the point that they become close friends and the reader gets invested in their outcomes. The heroine, China Mack is a computer extraordinaire with quirky and OCD tendencies who reluctantly heads the government’s secret Vigilence program. Jackson Cooper, software prodigy turned billionaire is the boyfriend and Clark Slattery, ex-military/special forces/spy/ex co-worker provide not only the romantic triangle but also the suspense and intrigue due to both their professions. This book concentrates on who China Mack is and how their past intertwines all 3 characters. As in all triangle romances, readers would be torn between Jackson and Clark. This book moves fast and has tons of action and content, ala Tiffany Snow’s writing style. Very enjoyable story and at the end of the book, I can’t help but wait with impatience for the next installment of this series.

If you loved the Kathleen Turner series, you will love China Mack. Tiffany keeps you on a roller coaster ride and sneaks in some OH WOW moments. I know I can always count on a lost night of sleep with a Tiffany Snow book because I just can't put it down.

Get ready for one heck of a ride! Brilliant hacker, China Mack is back and better than ever! An assassination attempt on the President, a marriage proposal for China from her billionaire boyfriend/genius hacker himself, Jackson Cooper, and the reappearance of her former partner, ex Navy Seal Clark Slattery is causing a crazy week for China to deal with!

This book is action packed and full of suspense in every direction. And it’s a really awesome storyline, but I zipped through that part just to get the pieces regarding the love triangle! Because holy cow, Tiffany Snow writes love triangles like nobody’s business! I read the Kathleen Turner series in two days I was so freaking addicted, and China’s relationships are heating up to be jut as good! Granted, while it’s great for drama, I hope this gets resolved by book four. I really don’t know if I’d make it if there’s a fifth book!! So, completely Team Clark, because how can you NOT root for a guy who actually “gets” China’s idiosyncrasies?! Jackson kind of gets her, but I’m seriously biased towards Clark. Then again, I was rooting for Kade and Kathleen too..maybe I have a thing for the tall, dark, and dangerous guys..

Fantastic romantic tension and plenty of suspense-romantically and otherwise-made this a fast read! It was great seeing Blane and Kade again along with a fun supporting cast (I love China niece, Mia. She’s a great mix of sassy, sweet, and has keen insight for a teenager). Clark and Jackson have their work cut out for them to win China over, and I can’t wait to see what’s next for this group!

I voluntarily reviewed an advanced copy of this book that I received from Montlake via NetGalley.
