Ok truth be told if I could give this book more than 5 stars I totally would. It was FANTASTIC!!! Totally what I was looking for in a romantic suspense book. This book was also a second chance romance done right!!

I was completely sucked into this story. With the authors writing I felt like I was in this story with these characters and facing the same fears they were. I haven’t read a Bella Jewel book before and I am so glad I took a chance on this book and author. I look forward to reading more of her books in the future.

72 Hours is a standalone novel told primarily from the female POV but the author did throw in some surprise POV’s that I wasn’t expecting. This story was captivating from the prologue all the way to the end of the book. I thought the flow and pace were perfect and I have nothing to complain about with this story. Bella gave us amazing characters and a storyline that was unput down able!! She gave us the perfect mix of suspense, mystery, angst, love and romance. You will totally walk away from reading this book feeling fulfilled. Hands down this is the BEST book of 2017 I have read so far (and I have read some really great books)

I can’t tell you much about this storyline because it would spoil so much. Just know that this book is a story about survival, strength, love and finding your inner self. I loved that she added the second chance romance into this story….it mixed well with the suspenseful storyline. I loved that she was able to keep me on the edge of my seat throughout the WHOLE book. I will warn you that this book is kind of detailed and if you don’t like violence in your stories this might not be the book for you. I normally don’t like a lot of gore in my romance novels, but this wasn’t overly graphic to the point of nausea but just enough that you could’ne help feel what the characters were feeling. Absolutely PERFECT!!!!

I honestly could go on and on about this book, but I don’t want to slip and spoil any of this book. Just READ THIS BOOK!!! You won’t be sorry. If you are a fan of Bella Jewel’s books and love a great thriller mixed with the perfect love story, then don’t miss out on this book!!!
