I have always enjoyed books by Lynette Eason and this one was not an exception. I was a bit confused at the beginning with all the siblings and almost felt as though I was missing out on some details of the story. This book was fast paced but it did feel like way too many disasters were happening to one person in such a short amount of time - that was a little unbelievable. I enjoyed the suspense and the romans. Thumbs up, for sure!

Wow! Talk about a great read. I lost so much sleep on this baby, the characters are witty, charming and absolutely wonderful. The storyline will keep you on the edge of your chair bitting your nails until it leaves you on the very last page wishing it wasn't over yet. I'm going to have to read it again. Seriously you won't be disappointed by this book. I think it may be Ms. Eason's best yet.

I did like this book. I liked the story line and the characters. It did have a lot of characters and I found myself forgetting who was who and had to back track several times to remember the characters place in the story

This was the best book by Lynette Eason I have EVER read! There have been I few book that I've REALLY liked and some that I thought were okay but this book was EXCELLENT! It was so well done in every capacity! I am really looking forward to this new series continuing.

The action, the thrill, the twists and turns will keep you reading long after you want to stop. The romance was perfectly done too! It goes to show you what that real story telling doesn't need to hinge on foul language and sex or sexual over or under tones.

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS BOOK!!

Oath of Honor is the first book in the new exciting Blue Justice series written by author Lynette Eason. She's one of my favorite authors. Her books are always wonderful. Thanks to NetGalley and Revell Publishing for the advance copy.

Oath of Honor is hugely thrilling, combining mystery, criminal investigations, politics, gang wars, shootings, and suspicions that hit far too close to home for the main characters. Oath of Honor begins a new suspense series from Lynette Eason, Blue Justice, which promises to deliver both mystery and romance.

Officer Isabelle St. John knows what it takes to commit her life to serving others - she's just one more in a large family of fellow law enforcers. So, when her partner is murdered and she narrowly escapes with her life, Izzy knows she will do anything to bring his killer to justice. Investigating with her is her partner's brother, Detective Ryan Marshall. As they untangle the mystery surrounding Kevin's death and attempt to find the people responsible, Izzy and Ryan will have to face the hard truths behind the buried secrets.

This book had me majorly intrigued with the 'crazy, loud, law-enforcement family' and Izzy's secret crush on her partner's brother. The promise of action, mystery, and secrets that implicate the main characters' loved ones were just icing on the cake. And Lynette Eason delivers on all counts. There really is non-stop action and I was literally biting my nails as the story built to a huge climax. Twist after twist has Izzy and Ryan chasing leads with their fellow police officers, dodging bullets, facing bomb blasts, and grieving the loss of friend, partner, and brother. There are also plenty of possible suspects, and there was no way I would have ever been able to guess how it all unfolded.

Along with plenty of suspense, Oath of Honor also includes a little romance. It doesn't take the focus of the story line, but it gives relief from the otherwise tense plot. And it's not just Izzy who has a secret crush. Turns out Ryan has some secret feelings of his own. Built upon many years of close friendship, Ryan and Izzy's relationship has a natural feel that isn't rushed or overly simplified.

Izzy's large family and the cast of many other characters give this book a well-rounded feel, adding another layer to the action and romance. As the first book in the Blue Justice series, Oath of Honor introduces us to the characters who will star in book two, Izzy's sister Chloe and her K-9, Hank. I look forward to reading Chloe's story, which promises to be just as exciting as Oath of Honor.

The publishers provided an advanced readers copy of this book for reviewing purposes. All opinions are my own.
