Never Say Never

LOVED this book! This is book two in The Nostradamus Prophecies and it does not disappoint. The author is a master at crafting romantic suspence/thrillers and this book proves it. Add in a bit of paranormal and you have a compelling read. Kel is a remote viewer who uses his skills as part of a secret government team. While on a view, he sees Eva, the daughter of a Mexican crime lord, being attacked and he is compelled to go to her.

Once he infiltrates the Mexican compound, his life is in jeopardy and he doesn't know who can be trusted. He can't understand how Eva can be helping her father as he tries to weed through the lies to figure out what is really going on.

This book kept me on the edge of my seat and turning pages just as quickly as possible. While it is part of a series, it is a stand alone novel. However, it is so good that you really owe to you yourself to read them all. The author is on my must read authors' list. This is a must read for fans of the genre.

Ms. Hughey certainly found her groove with this book compared to the first one of the series. I found the first book difficult to read due to the main characters more specifically the heroine I was sure if I was going to read the second book but I’m glad I did.

The MC in this book are fantastic. Both equally strong with flaws. They both have a hidden agenda and when it comes out what they were both trying to work towards there was no drama. Which I loved. The interaction between the main characters didn’t feel forced even with their hidden agenda half the time I forgot about it. They had chemistry with one another. The plot and the love interest were balanced out well and they didn’t deflect from one another.

I see a story with Hawk and Sylvie in the future. I think you’re going to need help with this Sylvie.

Unique and different.

Never Say Never is the second book in the Nostradamus Prophecies by Lisa Hughey. While this book picks up right after the ending of the first in the series the main characters in this installment are different in than the first. Never Say Never focuses on Kelvin Jackson, another member of the secret government team we learned of in the first book and also Eva Pacheco the daughter of a leader of a cartel.

While on a remote viewing assignment Kel sees Eva and believes that she is being held hostage and in danger. Insisting that he is the one that goes undercover on the assignment Kel gets in with the cartel but finds out who Eva really is, not only the daughter of the man Kel is assigned to take down but also a witch with the power to read thoughts. Kel still finds himself strangely drawn to Eva which puts himself and his assignment in danger.

This series is a mixture of a paranormal romance and a fast paced thrill ride. The characters have different abilities than the ones in the first book in the series but overall the story remains much the same with the secret team members needing to solve the case they are working on.

I think this book was a bit more on the erotic side than the first in the story. Kel and Eva have a mental connection in the story and it seemed the fact they were reading each other’s attractions added to the steamier side of their relationship. But even with seeming to be more towards the relationship side this time there was still plenty of action in the story.

Overall, this is turning into a pretty good series so far, fast paced and intense with a mix of abilities to the characters that is fun learning about.

I received a copy from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This was an interesting story, I enjoyed the intrigue along with the sci-fi aspects, but I wasn't able to fully immerse myself. All in all it was good character development and could be read as a stand alone

What a fantastic story! This author really knows how to write well developed characters and a great story line to keep you wanting more and more. I am very excited to read more from this author.

Never Say never by Lisa Hughey is a romance and mystery and thriller read.
Kelvin Jackson doesn’t do guns, gangs, or crying women. So how does he end up in a rural cartel compound in Mexico with crates full of Russian made weapons and a crying beauty?

On a remote viewing session Kelvin Jackson sees a crying woman in a warehouse full of Russian made guns. Something about the strong woman draws him and he convinces his boss that he should be the operative to go undercover and stop those weapons from being distributed.
Fantastic read with brilliant characters. Highly recommended. 5*. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced copy of this book from netgalley.
