This is the third book in this series and China Mack makes an interesting heroine. She is torn between 2 guys and you can not help but like both of them.

Tiffany Snow's Kathleen Turner series is absolutely my favorite romantic suspense series ever. I had high hopes for Tangled Ivy and Risky Business, but while I really liked them, they didn't just take over my life like Kathleen Turner. I was beginning to think nothing would ever equal up until I started reading this series. Not only did she bring back favorites from Kathleen Turner for small parts (which really made me beyond happy), but I liked the Corrupted Hearts characters for themselves. It's a classic Tiffany Snow triangle with two men who could be the right one, but which one really is THE one? This series has everything I love about Tiffany Snow's writing, fast pace, twisted plots, out of this world chemistry, and constant suspense and danger. I'm not about to rehash the plot and ruin the suspense, but I will say I've finally chosen a team. I'm fully team Clark. I had assumed this would be a trilogy, but while much was resolved, threads are still left hanging, and I can't wait for more!

Absolutely loved this book. Tiffany Snow is one of my favourite authors and this book did not disappoint. It has a bit more action than the previous books in this series but in my opinion it just adds to the enjoyment of it

What a read this book was. Super packed with storyline that continues from previous books but also develops further. Some serious decision need to be made by my fave female lead in a long time China. I mean Jackson and Clark are two seriously sexy and delicious men, but trust me the decision on who to handle your heart would be a hard one. There is some situations that arise that i never saw coming, Tiffany Snow totally pulled the rug from under me, when this series ends, i will be very saddened as i have loved the characters and how taught with suspense and romance the books have been throughout the series

For China Mack - a relationship with Jackson is full of challenges. A full on push out of the daily routine and much needed comfort zone for China. While China loves each and every moment she spends with Jackson, she also wonders if this is what a true relationship is really all about. After all, China doesn’t have anything to compare it to. So - what’s the problem? The good looking and charming guy that just came back to town…..Clark.

The reappearance of Clark into China’s world sends her in a tailspin of indecision. He is the one factor that makes China doubt her relationship with Jackson. With a threat on the life of the President, China finds herself in a struggle to prove Clark’s innocence. A task that proves harder when China doesn’t understand all of the dynamics to who is working against her.

Secrets unfold the deeper China looks. Bringing Clark and Jackson into the ever complicated life that China leads. Both are vying for China’s attention, confusing her even more than she thought possible. With each step to prove Clark’s innocence, China and the guys fall deeper and deeper into danger. Where will it all lead? Which man is left standing at the end?

If you haven’t had the pleasure of reading one of Tiffany Snow’s love triangles…then you definitely need to catch up on the happenings surrounding China Mack!! With the world wide web as the backdrop to this engaging tale of espionage and uncovered secrets, Find Me will have you confirming if you are #TeamJackson or #TeamClark!! I am rooting for Jackon, but Clark is holding his own with the nerdy and beautiful China!

This third instalment of the Corrupted Hearts series picks up three months on from the end of Break Me as we dive straight into the fast pace of this third novel in the Corrupted Hearts series.

An event that should have made China the happiest woman on the planet is overshadowed as her career takes priority over her private life. She isn't happy about the direction her work has taken her and Jackson and Clark are both vying for her too. Whilst I've become more tolerant of her 'over the top' fandom obsession, she's showing a side of her personality I don't care for. Her attitude towards the men in her life is disdainful as she struggles with the pressures and expectations from every aspect of her life.

Both Jackson and Clark are likeable and gorgeous...China is a lucky girl. However, for me the reader, I'm overcome with the feeling I've been introduced to these fine male specimens before. One is a man who's too good to be true and a perfect match for the heroine. The other is edgier, a bad boy. A guy worthy of a woman's fantasy? Maybe that's why I have no opinion or preference as to who will secure China's heart because I already have a hunch who she'll choose?

Mia is the light within the darkness and her bright, bubbly personality is a welcome presence and an entertaining contrast to a love triangle that has lost my interest. I'm thankful, the suspense element of this novel keeps me enthralled as it always does with this author's novels.

(My thoughts: After reading Break Me, the second book, I made a note of where I thought this love triangle would end after the final instalment in the trilogy. Now we know there's a fourth book in the works. Despite that, China, Jackson and Clark are exactly where I predicted they'd be because I feel I've read something similar before...there have been too many triggers along the way to serve as a reminder. It's been a huge distraction and the main reason why my focus on the narrative has been inattentive. I'm disappointed I'm not fully engaged in the characters in this Corrupted Hears series because I'm reminded and reminiscing about unrelated ones I'm already familiar with...this goes beyond the cameo appearances within this series. The protagonists and the setting are unalike, as is the narrative but the structure seems to be following a pattern I've experienced before. I've had this nagging feeling since Follow Me and it's gotten stronger with each instalment.)

With the scene set for book four, I'll be back to find out China, Jackson and Clark's destiny, secretly hoping my gut feeling is wrong and Ms. Snow delivers a grand and shocking finale I know she's capable of.

3.5 stars

As an avid Tiffany Snow fan this book was another knockout. Snow finds the perfect balance of suspense, intrigue and romance that keeps readers going. I honestly felt that this book was a good step towards Clark's character development which only made me feel more invested in the book! A lot of unanswered questions regarding character backgrounds will come to the forefront in this one and will leave you wanting more which means there is definitely a book four in the works. Personal note: I definitely feel as though this series is more reminiscent of the Risky Business set than any other series Snow has come up with. Thoughts? PS Thanks Netgalley for the ARC!

I have a confession to make, I haven't read any of Tiffany Snow's books previously. So I'm coming into the third book in a series with new eyes. In a series, each book should be able to stand on its own and not alienate readers. I'm happy to say that "Find Me" succeeded. I never felt lost in the action, but did get there was some stuff I missed. Which is fine.

China Mack is a computer wunderkind with a very particular way of doing things -- she compares herself to Sheldon Cooper from "The Big Bang Theory" at one time. She's got what many woman only dream about. The perfect job (for her). The perfect man (for pretty much anyone). And a perfect life (for her). Except there's a problem, her one-time partner/UST buddy/and Man with a Dark Past (tm), Clark, comes to her seeking her help. His former squad buddies are being killed and worse, he's been accused of trying to kill the President (cameo appearances from Snow's Kathleen Turner books apparently). So China and Clark are pitted against time, the U.S. Government, a shady conspiracy, and themselves to find the truth. Oh and did I mention there's UST? Like Hunger Games and Twilight levels of UST?

So let me break down what I liked and didn't like.

Liked -- Female Geek not being reviled because she's a geek.
Liked -- Sassy Teenage sidekick Mia
Liked -- Both Love interests. They are both viable choices and represent two different aspects of China's personality and desires. I'm pretty sure I know who I'd pick... but I'm also willing to bet I know who China will pick in the end.
Liked -- The pacing. Super intense and fast moving. Felt like a real thriller with callback to the Jason Bourne and Jack Ryan Books.
Liked -- The characters are not super human.
Liked -- the editing was good enough that I wasn't yanked out of the story by grammatical errors.
Liked -- The foreshadowing. I was able to guess the two biggest plot twists/events about halfway through the book because of the clues the author left. But they weren't confirmed until later. There's enough bread crumbs so that the reader can feel like they're helping solve the mystery, but not so many that the reveal later is a let down. And many readers will miss the signs.
Liked -- The unreliable narrator. First person is inherently an unreliable narrator, but many authors forget that. I liked that Snow didn't and that if China didn't have the information, we didn't have it either.

Disliked -- China's ambiguous personality disorder. It was later identified as OCD, but the way it's written it strikes me as a form of Asperger's. Now I'd like to see it more clearly identified because positive representation of people with Mental Illness and Personality Disorders is rare. And unfortunately ambiguous disorders are very common.
Disliked -- The love triangle. I get that it's the author's thing. But I personally feel that all love triangles can be solved with healthy polyamory. ~_^
Disliked -- The random POV switches. I get that China's POV wouldn't work. But I'm not sure that the other POV's were a good choice. Moving from first person into third person is a little jarring.

In all, I enjoyed this book enough that I'll check out Snow's other works. And I'll definitely recommend it to people who like romantic suspense and will-they/won't-they love triangles.

I give this -- Five Stars.

This author is killing me! Clarke or Jackson? I love them both and each book I waiver. I hate love triangles, but I didn't know that was going to happen in this series when I started book 1. By then I was hooked.

I should want China to put us out of our misery and choose one of them, but I understand why she struggles. She's not your average woman. She's shy, nerdy and doesn't relate like an average person. She also has a hard time with emotions. It's almost like she has a form of Augsburg. I love China. She's one of my favorite types of heroines to read about and I'm glad she finally gets to feel what it's like to be loved. I almost want her to have both men.

This isn't all about the love triangle. The author has provided a great storyline and keeps you on your toes with each book. China is a computer genius and can hack into anything. The government is taking advantage of her smarts and employs her which has caused all kinds of dangerous threats to her life. It doesn't help that Clark is former Navy Seal bringing his own threats or that Jackson being a genius hacker himself brings threats as well? This makes for some very interesting plots and I truly do love this series.

It ends on a cliffhanger and I'll be not so patiently waiting for the next book. ARC provided by NetGalley.

I can't wait for the next book, and Find Me isn't even officially out yet. Love triangle roman at its best.

Was this review helpful?

Find Me blew me away and was filled to the brim with twists and turns and ups and downs and I was blindsided so many times I that I couldn't put the book down!

"...if you can kiss a man like that... then maybe you're not as in love as you think you are."

The love triangle is in full swing this book, with Clark and Jackson are once again at each other's throats in this story, almost as if they are attempting to mark their territory at times. They really put more stress on China when she doesn't need it.

I don't know if I should say this in a review... but to heck with it. I AM TEAM CLARK! I think that Jackson is... well a tool. I feel like he has decided that China is the perfect piece to his puzzle and that since she fits his ideas that she should be with him. Clark, on the other hand, doesn't believe he is good enough for and would literally die for China, put his life on the line and do everything possible to keep her safe.

"Death had come for me too many times lately. I felt as though I was living on borrowed time."

Holy crap! How many 'OMG' moments can you fit in one book? I probably said OMG at least fifteen times in the second half of Find Me. I just had no clue what was coming around the next corner.

If you like your romantic suspense/mystery, Find Me is a MUST READ.

I devoured all 3 books in the series! This one is full of action, intrigue, and a love triangle, as Tiffany does so well. I couldn't decide who I wanted China to choose. It was also nice to get a glimpse of Kade and Blane. I'm hoping there's still more to come.

Find Me is the third book in author Tiffany Snow's Corrupted Hearts series. This is a very well-written suspense story with well-developed characters. We have met the main characters, Clark Slattery, Cooper Jackson, China Mack and her niece, Mia in the earlier books. The secondary characters in Find Me add much to the storyline as well as to the intrigue and suspense. There's lots of action as well as intrigue and suspense in this story.

In addition to all the action I found this story to have a lot of personal drama involved. If you like your books with a serving of angst then you will really enjoy this story. Personally it's not my cup of tea and I did not care for how this story ended. I did enjoy the action plot and the resolution of the external conflict as well as finding out who shot the president and why.

Corrupted Hearts is one of my favorite series about a powerful woman not afraid to use her brain, fight for what's right and find romance. China does all that and has two of the sexiest men pining for her. The action was great, bullets and car crashes but the love triangle kept me in suspense. You know, or at least hope, everyone comes out alive but who is she going to pick? The smart brainy billionaire more like her or the muscled smooth talker as her total opposite? It was killing me! There were a lot secrets revealed and answers given but we aren't done with China, there is more to her story.

THIS is the Tiffany Snow I fell in love with! This third book in the series gave me all the feels I got when I was introduced to this author in her first series The Kathleen Turner series. Anyone that knows me knows that THAT series is my ALL-TIME FAVORITE. Yesssss it was very reminiscent of that. I was much more endeared to China Mack in this book. Going into this book I ALREADY had my guy picked BUT damn it Tiffany Snow does it AGAIN! She has a way of messing with your head and reconsidering what you THOUGHT you felt! Gahhhhhh so exasperating! This is indeed why NOBODY does triangles like this author does! But her books don’t stop there, the action and twist & turns keep you at the edge of your seat. This book was LOADED with all that! I NEED that in my reads, I get bored with straight up Romance. For me it’s like soggy pasta, LOL I NEED my pasta al-dente with some bite to it! That’s what you get with her books Al-dente Pasta! Hahahaha Then the author blows our minds when she gives us portions with the men we know and love from her The Kathleen Turner series Blane and Kade. I love how she seamlessly intertwined them into the story like they belonged there. It was PERFECTLY done! Not just thrown in there to appease her many fans. And I LOVED it! (Note to author) PLEASE don’t ever stop doing that with your characters, ANY of them (wouldn’t mind seeing some Devon Clay in a future series, just saying. No pressure, wink) But seriously…..Each book in this series is better than the last. This one was my favorite so far and I can’t wait to read the next and final book in this series.

Book three in the Corrupted Hearts series was everything that I hoped it would be. It was a reminder of why the KT series is such a frequent reread for me. The heroine, China, is the quintessential quirky, oblivious nerd that you love and want to slap all at the same time. She seemed to loosen up a little in this one, but still experienced a lot of emotional tug of war that had me questioning whose side I was on. The heroes, Jackson and Clark, are reminiscent of some of our favorite heroes in series past, but are different enough to still intrigue and suck you into the plot with their smoldering hotness. I yelled, I teared up, I swooned, and I wanted to chew my nails. I devoured this one in one sitting and am currently sitting here wondering when the next installment will be released.

Tiffany Snow is well known for her romance love triangles as well as the hot sexy scenes she writes.
I have read all of this authors books and while some are written with sex scenes first and than she fills in the details the Corrupted Heart series is written with the story in mind and everything else fills in as the story moves forward.
China is a characters readers will fall in love with with her nerdy and very comfortable in her quite life. I could do without the love triangle because it will always leave one set of readers upset when the character doesn't choose the one they assume the female should be with. As well as it makes the female characters less strong and almost selfish because she can't seem to make a decision and stick to it.
China slowly discovers who she is and how she is able to handle her comfortable life tuned upside down. readers will watch she has struggle trying to understand the knew her and keeping true to who she is inside.
Find me has a killer that is hell bend on retribution which will keep readers reading. Wondering how China and the boyfriends will be able to stop the killer as well as keep everyone safe and alive.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher Montlake as well as Tiffany Snow for the advance copy.
