I've been reading books by Trinity Blacio for so long, its like second nature when I pick up one of her stories.

I have to say I don't usually get all on the female's side but dang, Hope just endears herself to you. All that she went through, the hate, the dislike, and abandonment, would leave anyone broken. Not, Hope, she punched out a life for herself and made it as good as she could.

The three alpha males they have that down to a science, always making their girl their priority. Trying to let Hope be herself and still protecting her wasn't always easy.

a fun easy read, some real-life points made as well. I loved the description of the ship-home and the flowers that danced on her body. Reading this story just affirms why I fell in love with Trinity Blacio's writing. Enjoy

Wow so good that that it made me happy and sad. Such a good plot, with big strong men. Some sadness about children in the book. But other things about gifts “cool” wish I could have gifts like all of the people in the book

Love this series, and it looks like I'm caught up to the latest book, now I can start at the beginning! Trinity Blacio writes likeable characters, I like the characters I have met and want to know their stories too. Hopefully I will find out why the women are having multiple births!! Or maybe that answer will be in up coming books?

I have been waiting for this book for what feels like years! The Running in Fear series has been teasing Hope's character for a while now, so to have it finally arrive was great. It had been so long since we'd meet some of the other couples (or since I've read the previous books) that I had forgotten some of the relationships that impacted the 'couple' in this novel. Hope's character was great and I really loved that she's a bear shifter! In typical Trinity Blacio fashion, there are typos and wrong word usages and some emotional stuff gets glossed over a bit in the rush of things, but it is still a great series and really fun to read!

Good story, buy way too many characters that it was hard to keep up with them.

this is a hard one to rate -- I enjoyed where the story was going, I liked Hope & her guys, I liked that she was strong yet caring and sensitive and that the guys were not over the top "alpha" but were willing to ask her what she needed, how they may have screwed up and hurt her accidently and how to make it right and not make the same mistakes, I enjoyed the interactions between all the various characters as well as the ongoing world building. however there were issues. sometimes things resolved just too quick and easy so there wasn't a lot of tension/anticipation in the book, I was surprised at how quickly and easily hope was willing to just go with the guys right off even though she'd been on her own fighting & caring for her "kids" for so long (while explained that she was following her bear's instincts, it still seemed odd for her to trust 3 complete strangers - alien ones at that - so quickly). the cast of this series is huge and many of them are included in the book so that sometimes it was confusing as to who was speaking or acting (though not as much as in some prior books). the biggest difficulty was remembering who everyone was and how they related to each other and the story -- if ever a series could use a "cast listing" to refer to this may well be it, particular when you haven't just read the prior books. often had to stop and try to figure out just who someone was, which interrupted to flow of the story. there were also a number of minor editing/formatting issues which individually weren't an issue but overall/cumulatively did detract from the reading experience. in summary, while I didn't not like the story, neither did I enjoy it as much as I could have or wanted to.

This is Book 10 in the Running in Fear series. It’s my new favorite book in the series. We meet Hope in the very beginning of the book. She’s been fighting the heliokillers for years, ever since they killed her parents when she was 12. She’s been learning everything that she could about them and is fighting for her life and the life of the orphans that she took in. Gourd, Jester and Fand are her mates and have finally found her. This is such an exciting book. It’s has all kinds of suspense, fights, sex and excitement that you can’t help but enjoy reading it. It will make you laugh and cry and want to kick male butts all the way through it. I hate to see this series end because I really enjoy reading about the planet and all the couples that are now on it. I received this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

HELLO MS Blacio....How have we not met yet?

I love jumping into the middle or end of the series and seeing If I can get hooked enough to go back and read the others...because a good writer will pull you in even if you don't quite understand all the world building. MS. Blacio take a bow you are one of them!

I loved this, I honestly was confused on some of the connections and the world building butI don't care...because the characters are one I want to read about over and over and over... I want to binge read this series and I'm hoping there is another series with the intersecting character because then I'm going to read that as well.

Hope is a bear shifter on an Earth ravaged by aliens( not the hero type either) who has adopted 3 cubs and is hell bound to protect them. She soon meets her 3 mates Gourd, Fand and Jester. While unsure they worm their way into her hear and take her to a new world/ship. Here she learns she is an integral part of keeping the world alive and that her heritage isn't what it seems.

Through it all her heart is what gives people "hope". She is a born caregiver and her new gift accentuates that. I loved watching her set her men on their ears and see her forgive so many hurts in an effort to grow. I loved the other ladies and I cant wait to read their stories as well.

I do feel that the story focused on Gourd more so than Jester and Fand which was slightly sad because I did want to watch them grow with Hope a little more. As I said there were some confusing parts, but I jumped in so that is on me and honestly it didn't impact how I felt:

I still loved the story and it made me want more. Now I am off to find more of the books to feed the beast.

I received a copy of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Hope has always depended on herself but always wanted a family to love. Hope is a bear shifter and she has taken in three abandoned children. Gourd Jester and Fand are alien warriors are on a mission when they find Hope. Is she they mate and is she the fifth woman that will help to save the world? Fast-paced with lots of drama. I wish is was a bit longer, overall and entertaining read.

Hope knew the world would become dangerous but no one believed her. Now she protects the siblings she has taken as her own. But when a new danger arises will Hope trust in the men destined to be hers?
Finding Hope is the last installment of Trinity Blacio's Running in Fear series. I really like Hope. She has been forgotten and marginalized but that did not stop her from opening her heart to the children her bear has made their own. I love that Ms. Blacio gave us a fierce mam who had the skills to protect and provide for her little family. And the men fated to be hers were fierce as well. They would do whatever is necessary to protect not only her body but her heart as well. I enjoyed Gourd, Jester and Fand. They each brought something different to Hope but together they made her feel safe and wanted.
I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Hope blossom as her past collided with her present. This story by Ms. Blacio was an enjoyable read and I hate to see this series end.

ARC - I voluntarily offered to review this book with no obligations and my opinions are honest!
Hope is a bear shifter trying to survive while taking care of 3 orphaned children.
When she meets her mates, she learns that she is part of something bigger.
Loved the storytelling + the characters!

Trinity does it again. I was so excited to get book 10 of this series I could not put it down. The only part is I felt a little lost and am not sure if this is the end or if it is truly going to co tinge with the new series Trinity is writing. I hope so because I feel Westfield Tunisia the war is truly over or if the enemy is just working its way up in numbers again.

I got lost with the list of characters. I’ve read book 9 back in October and now the cast is bigger and I just needed a cheat cheers to remember names and who is mates to who. You are dropped right into the middle it felt like in the beginning and a few places felt skipped over, the sex was tamed compared to the others, the others might have been there but it was mostly focused on Groud and Hope. Groud anencephaly his two friends are aliens that came in on Velda’s book. But how is Velda related to Groud, Tanner, Luca and Leaguner(?)? Or how is Velda related to Hope, I’m confused. Overall it was good, the babies are 2 but a very big shock is in store for all the mated women again. Will the men actually be around now or will the women going to be mated but single most times with Hope and her adopted children and the news of some of the toddlers in the orphanage. Will they get new home even the teenagers. Can the women actually be able to visit earth now?

There will be a Running in Fear spin off dealing with the people who will be taken to earth and dealing with the new order of the world....

I received a copy of Finding Hope by Trinity Blacio from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I was intrigued by the summary and really wanted to like this novel, but the storyline could have been pulled together better and the characters developed better.

I voluntarily read an Advance Review Copy of this book. I have loved this series of books, some more than others, but they were all good. My understanding was this book was to have been the last in the series but the ending appears to leave the opening for more books to come, which I hope is correct. After the build up of the great war coming in the other books, the war was not given as much detail as I was expecting, it appears to have been over rather quickly. There are three aliens who are mated to Hope but Gourd appears to have the most sexual contact with her and there is more interaction between them than the others. The stories overall have been a great read and I have thoroughly enjoyed the series. Now that all of the books are written I intend to start with the first book and return the entire set together. There are a lot of typos and grammatical errors but I would still highly recommend this series.

Finding hope by Trinity Blacio.
A very emotional read.
Hope catcher has been on her own for a long time. She knows how to get close to and kill the heliokillers. Will gourd fand and jester find their mate? Is it hope? Will she join Jaycee Valda Suzanne lissa?
Omg. An absolutely fantastic read. Loved the story and plot. Didn't want it to end. Went from being tearful to laughing with everyone as though I was in the story with them. What an ending. Highly recommended. 5*.

I don’t know if this is meant to be the final book in this series or not. There is a spin&off that was announced at the end. This series doesn’t seem finished though. I felt in this book that Hope’s men didn’t act like jerks like the men in the previous books tended to do. Hope seemed much stronger than the other women as well.

I felt very confused at times with this story. I am not sure who is related to who since Velda’s story. It seemed convoluted and messy. At one point I was beginning to wonder if Hope and Gourd were actually related.

This is book 10 of The Running in Fear Series. This is Hope, Gourd, Jester and Fand’s story. She was a bear shifter and they were aliens. She was the next woman in the power chain. There was a lot BDSM. There were many different shifters on the new planet. I love her books. I hope there are more books in the series.

This was another installment in the Running in Fear series. Hope was a bear shifter who had been abandoned by her den and she had been taking care of 3 small children who were also abandoned. All of their parents had been killed by monsters and she learned how to kill them. 3 strange looking creatures killed some of the monsters she was after and she found out their were aliens from another planet and she was their mate. They had the ability to cure people and teleport to their planet. It turned out she was one of the women that could save them from the monsters when she joined with 4 of the other women already on the planet. Misunderstandings galore as they got to know each other, plus the other women needed their men to pay more attention to them also. All in all it was a pretty good book. There were quite a few misspellings or words used wrong, but I overlooked that for the story itself. I'm sure there will be more to come. I got this book from NetGalley for an honest review
