Ever sit down to read a few chapters in a book and before you know it you’ve closed the back cover? That was me while reading Breach of Trust. The action quickly sucked me in and I was captive until the very last page. Rachel Dylan’s writing is impeccable, weaving the reader on an adventure they’re not soon to forget. The characters were well developed and the suspense was clearly palpable.

As with any other crime fiction novel, as a reader you generally expect to be thrown-off a few times, holding you in a roller-coaster of suspense. I won’t share any of the story-line to prevent spoiling, but I will simply tell you that the wheels in my mind were continuously spinning in an attempt to fit the puzzle pieces together before the characters. The author truly did a masterful job on this one.

Breach of Trust is the third in the Atlanta Justice series. While it can easily be read as a stand-alone I’d still highly recommend reading the others as well. This series is amazing and one that is sure to leave me stalking the author for her next release (in a completely non-creepy way haha). If you’re a fan of romantic suspense this series is a must-read!

*I received a copy of this book from the author. Thoughts and opinions expressed are mine alone.

"Faith isn't a magic pill. It's important to understand that. Not to expect the pain to just stop because you've let God into your life. But it does allow you to cope with the pain in a different way."

This is actually the first book I have read from Rachel Dylan and I am totally hooked. Breach of Trust is book 3 in the Atlanta Justice series but can definitely be read as a stand-alone. Now that I've finished the book, I need to go back and read books 1 and 2!!
The author creates a fast-moving legal thriller full of action, suspense, and surprises in the plot that will keep you guessing who the real villain is. The writing is easy to follow, the characters are real and lovable, and the faith component of the story tangible and affirmative. If you enjoy a well-written romantic suspense/legal thriller, you will absolutely love this book.

Our heroine, Mia, is a brilliant corporate defense lawyer who has a broken past but a new life in her faith. She ends up taking a case after the death of her friend and colleague that leads her down a twisted and tangled web of corporate schemes. Noah, our hero, is a private investigator specializing in technology and gets involved in Mia's case when his ex-ATF buddy gets accused of murder. Noah is the steady, dependable, faithful sort who becomes Mia's rock as the case and her life unravel quickly. It's also interesting to see two other perspectives in the plot - one from Owen, the general council of the corporation that Mia is defending, and the other from Ty, the criminal defense lawyer who takes Noah's friend's case pro bono. Will there be future books about Owen and/or Ty?!?! We can only hope....

I received a copy of the book from Bethany House Publishers and was under no obligation to post a positive review. All comments and opinions are solely my own.

If you love legal thrillers, look no further than the Atlanta Justice series. Breach of Trust is the third in the trilogy, and centers around corporate litigator Mia Shaw. She discovers her friend has been murdered and Mia goes full force in pursuit of justice for the man accused of his murder. But Noah Ramirez thinks the man is being framed. The story unfolds in a tale of a corporate scandal with danger with every turn of the page. Mia and Noah seem to be on opposite sides, but join forces in search of the truth.

Breach of Trust might just be the best in this series. Lots of plot twists keep the reader’s head spinning until the very end. Just when you think everything is resolved and danger is averted, another twist pulls the reader back in. Noah and Mia’s chemistry make the story complete, without being too overdone on the romance side of things. Mia’s character gets thrown a lot of challenges, and her inner strength develops as she faces battles in and out of the courtroom. Also, as a bonus the reader gets to check in on Kate and Sophie from previous novels in the series. I enjoyed Breach of Trust and highly recommend it for fans of suspense and legal mysteries.

I received an ebook review copy of this book through NetGalley. All opinions expressed in this review are my own.

Legal Suspense Thriller at its finest. Filled with vivid details and a flowing plot that makes the characters feel real and relatable. A great mystery with just a touch of romance to keep you turning the page.

I love reading Christian suspense fiction, and Rachel Dylan is one of my favorite authors in this genre. This book showcases her ability to write an intriguing and riveting story that compels you to drop everything else you’re doing to keep reading another chapter to see what happens next. Although this is the last book in the Atlanta Justice series, it’s still a good stand-alone story and you can easily catch up with the characters as you read.

I loved the main character of Mia in this story. She’s smart, loyal, and caring. Her tenacity in discovering the truth of a horrible situation is a driving force in this storyline. Every character in this book is well-defined and perfectly fits their place in the story. The growing romance between Noah and Mia is not the main theme of this book, but their partnership in solving the crime is central to the story.

Rachel Dylan has given us a heart-pounding story with many twists and turns that compell you to solve this case along with them. I don’t know what the author has planned for us in her next series, but I’m eagerly looking forward to reading her next book.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.

Story opens with Mia discovering her friend murdered. She is pretty sure she knows who is guilty and begins working with the prosecutor to bring him to justice. Meanwhile she still has her own job to do which means continuing to work on the legal case she has been assigned to. While going through evidence she realizes she needs to bring in a cyber security expert. Problems arise when the expert is Noah, who happens to also be working on trying to clear his friend of murder charges. Yes, the same person that Mia is sure is guilty of killing her friend. Can these two put their differing opinions aside on the one case and work together to solve the other?

The story keep me intrigued trying to figure out the guilty party was in both cases. There were many people that I was suspicious of and I felt like I was right there with Mia trying to figure out who she could trust. Just when I thought the case was wrapped there was a twist that that shocked me! I did not see that coming and was completely taken by surprise. The faith discussions felt like a natural extension of the characters lives. Mia is a fairly new Christian and her faith is being tested because of her current situation but Noah is able to help her understand how faith works and grow in her relationship with God.

I especially enjoyed that Mia and Noah were able to work together even though they had disagreeing opinions. Their romance is not the main focus of the story but rather their relationship builds gradually while they are working on the cases (it also helps that their best friends are married to each other).

This is the third book in the series and includes characters from the previous two. While it could easily be read as a standalone I enjoyed that Kate, Sophie, Cooper and Landon were all included in this one. The twist at the end has left me wanting to read it again and see if there were any hints that I may have missed. Ms. Dylan did a wonderful job of weaving the story together in a way that kept me engaged in both cases and caring about the characters.

Like the others in this series, this is a great legal suspense novel. I love the authenticity in the details as Mia and her team wade through documents to prepare for trial; yet the details don’t ever bog the story down. The action is continuous and the plot moves along at a good pace. The danger increases as Mia gets closer to finding out the truth.
There is a romance but it doesn’t get a lot of development. The real strength of the novel to me is the unfolding drama in Mia’s corporate espionage case. It was interesting and kept me reading late into the night.
Thank you to Bethany House for providing me with an e-copy of this book. All opinions are my own.

Breach of Trust grabs your attention in the first chapter and keeps it throughout the book. The main characters, Noah and Mia, are likable and well-developed. I loved Noah's close relationships with his work partners, especially his forgiving one of them. He was so tender and protective with Mia. The plot has twists and turns and moves at a good pace. The setting is Atlanta, Georgia. There is a sweet HEA. I highly recommend this to romantic suspense readers. It is a clean read. Don't miss out on this one! I received an ARC. I chose to write a review and share my opinion of this excellent book.

Faith isn't a magic pill. It's important to understand that. Not to expect the pain to just stop because you've let God into your life. ~Sophie, Breech of Trust

Mia Shaw arrived at the door of her friend Chase Jackson's apartment with celebratory balloons in her hands. She knocked and yelled that she was there to take him out to dinner as planned. There was no way she would let his one year anniversary as a successful partner at the law firm they both work at, with out celebrating.
When he did not answer the door she decided to try opening it even though she knew it would be locked so when it opened, she was very surprised & called out to Chase as she walked in. No answer. Then when she checked his bedroom...
Noah Ramirez could not believe that his friend has been arrested for murder. He knows the man that David is and knows he would never commit murder but the evidence points at him & only him.
With the death of Chase, Mia was asked to take over the LCI case, Lee Corporation International. It was a high profile case that was Chase's top priority, in preparing for the court case she begins to find and experience things that have her wondering if perhaps his death was tied to the case.
Noah really wants to prove David's innocence and when Mia asks him to consult on the computer information he accepts and together they work to find the truth and in the process find each other.
Mia and Noah believe that the Lord will be with them and guide them through this trial and answer their prayers to have a life in Him, together.

This was the final book in the Atlanta Justice Series. Ms. Dylan never disappoints with exciting plots that grab you from the very beginning and characters you never want to say good bye to. She also weaves into the story that God always takes care of his children no matter how long or strong ones faith is.

I am honored to have been blessed with an advance reader copy and thank Rachel Dylan for allowing me to participate.

I loved it! This book was sweet, inspiring and romantic! Wonderful characters and story. I just wish this was a series!
*I was given a copy by the publisher. I was not under any obligation to leave a review. This is my honest opinion.

This is Mia’s story, and be warned, it grabs you from the 1st page and won’t let go. As the progression through the book builds the reader is left wondering who can be trusted and is she trusting the right people? We see Kate, Sophie, Landon and Cooper as well as another familiar name from Deadly Proof. Mia is faced with the murder of a dear friend and sets out to make sure the guilty one pays to the full extent of the law. The fact that she’s not a prosecutor doesn’t deter her. Noah is just as sure the “guilty” one is innocent. Great conclusion to this series and the 6 close friends we’ve come to know.
A complimentary copy was provided by Bethany House and NetGalley. No obligation of a review was required and all thoughts are my own.

Rachel Dylan’s third book in the Atlanta Justice series highlights Mia Shaw, a young attorney working for as a litigator for a big Atlanta law firm. While she doesn’t love her job, she’s dedicated to doing her very best and earning her keep so that she can pay off her expensive law-school education.

When she finds her best friend brutally murdered, Mia vows to do everything in her power to help bring the killer to justice—even if it puts her own life in danger.

Noah Ramirez loves his job at K&R Security. It allows him to work with his best friends and use his considerable computer skills to fight the bad guys. When a friend from his ATF days calls from prison, Noah vows to do everything he can to prove his friend’s innocence.

Mia and Noah butt heads over the question of innocence and guilt. Despite their disagreement, they discover that their mutual respect for each other helps them through the rough spot and that they can work together to fight for justice.

As they dig for information, Mia starts to wonder if her very life is in danger. Noah discovers that he’ll do anything to protect Mia.

Although part of a series, the book stands alone with cameo appearances by the heroines and heroes from the first two books in the series.

Readers who love Cara Putman’s books will enjoy Rachel Dylan’s latest book.

Mia had a touch life growing up. Raised by a single mom who was also a drug addict didn't give her a lot of chances to make something of herself. But she fought hard, went to law school and now works for a large law firm and is "living the dream." Or is she? Trying to pay off her school loans she actually is at a large firm that pays well, but doesn't necessarily mean that she is doing what she wants.

Then the unthinkable happens. Her good friend and associate, Chase, is brutally murdered. Mia finds his body and the intrigue starts. She is determined to see the man who killed Chase put on trial and convicted. But at the same time the law firm gives her control of the Corporate Case that Chase was working on. It is a Breach of Contract. But as she digs into the case she finds that there are some major problems of corporate espionage.

The storyline will deal with issues of Trust, Forgiveness, Deceit, Truth and Honesty as well as Integrity. The author weaves a wonderful story but also deals with issues that each of us face in real life, just maybe not to this depth. At the same time Mia is struggling with her new faith, one that leaves her questioning the goodness of God.

There are so many dialogue lines and issues that will keep you and your book club talking about this wonderful novel for weeks. I couldn't put it down and can't wait to talk to others about some of the issues that are addressed.

Oh, and just when you think you know "Who did it," you realize that you were completely wrong. So, don't make assumptions until you completely finish the story.

Enjoy!

Dead bodies are not generally a part of Mia Shaw's life as a corporate litigator, so she is reasonably stunned when she walks into her best friend's apartment and finds him dead on the floor. Sure she knows the culprit, she points the accusatory finger at the apartment complex's handyman, David McDonald, a man known for his quick temper. Chase didn't have any other enemies so how could the killer be anyone else? When investigators find evidence that points toward McDonald, she feels vindicated. There's just one problem. Noah Ramirez, one of the partners at K&R Security and connected to Mia through the wives of his other partners who are also friends of hers, believes McDonald's story that he's being framed for something he didn't do.

When Noah Ramirez gets a call from the jail, the last person he expects to hear on the other end is former ATF agent David McDonald. As he listens to David's story, he agrees to do some investigating of his own. As he turns over rocks, he discovers a well-crafted frame-up that he has trouble refuting. Then, Mia discovers some things at work that her friend had hidden in the big case his team was litigating. Could the information she uncovers have led to Chase's murder? When the death threats don't stop her investigation, the killers get serious. Can Noah and his partners keep Mia safe long enough to get to the bottom of the conspiracy that got Chase killed?

Wow! This book started off with a bang when Mia walks into her friend's apartment, expecting to celebrate his first year as partner, and instead, finding his murdered body. I cannot imagine how she was able to suck it up and go back to work as soon as she did. As a fairly new Christian, she does her best to rely on God through the tough times she experiences, but she soon discovers that forgiveness is hard when you're sure another person is guilty. It also doesn't make life smooth sailing. As the death threats, and attempts on her life pile up, Mia finds herself leaning on Noah, and falling for him in the process. Will she live long enough to not only get at the truth in her case, but find the love she's been seeking with Noah?

Part of what I love about Rachel Dylan's books is the authenticity of the "lawyer-speak" in the stories. She KNOWS her material as a lawyer herself, and her books come across as very real because of it. I could almost have convinced myself that I was reading a news story (with a few side trips into the romance part of the story.) I also appreciate that her characters sometimes stumble in their Christian walk. There isn't a perfect Christian out there, and anyone who tells you that they are is lying. Ms. Dylan shows the struggles, and I like that.

I absolutely recommend Breach of Trust to anyone who loves romantic suspense. I will say that this is the third book in the series, but it can be read as a stand-alone. (I will also say that it is the first series book that I had no idea who the ultimate culprit was until the final reveal. That is an amazing feat for an author, in my eyes.) Pick up Breach of Trust and dive into the suspense!

Breach of Trust was written by Rachel Dylan, and is book three in the Atlanta Justice series.
Summary: Attorney Mia Shaw’s best friend is dead, and she wants to know why. When an arrest is made, Mia becomes determined to see the accused prosecuted to the extent of the law.
But as she digs into the evidence, things are not as clear as they first seemed, and soon Mia is receiving threats of her own.
Will she be able to help find the real killer, all while working the biggest case she has ever been assigned?
My Thoughts: I really enjoyed this book. It is well-written, full of intrigue and excitement, and has a great who-dun-it ending. If you enjoy action and mystery, this is great read.
It is not necessary to have read the first two books in order to read this one.

The final book in the Atlanta Justice series will keep readers guessing throughout a tangled web of deceit. This author is fast becoming the queen of legal thrillers. Love all the characters and how they support each other. Excited to see what is next for Rachel Dylan. Highly recommended!

BREACH OF TRUST. by Rachel Dylan
Chase and Mia worked at the same place, celebrating tonight, of his being a partner of 1 year. Arriving to find he had been murdered. A maintenance man and Chase had disagreements, was it him. Her best friend Sophia, at her wedding she met Noah. Noah had been a AFT as was David calling him for. help. Noah is now a PI. Mia is asks to take over the account Chase was working on to find hidden secrets, espionage with it. Noah and Mia working together give this a nice touch of romance. The legal part was well researched, and easy to see what was being done. Another winner for the author and this series. Given.ARC for my voluntary review and my honest opinion fromNet Galley and Bethany.

“Breach of Trust” by Rachel Dylan was a wonderful romantic suspense! I have loved everyone of her Atlanta League series, and this one is no different. This is book three in the series.

This book centers around Mia Shaw. Mia is a corporate litigator who finds one of her colleagues brutally murdered. Throughout the whole novel, Mia is trying to find out who is responsible for this murder. Mia meets Noah Ramirez while trying to find the murderer. There are some sparks there. There are some twists and turns throughout, and Mia encounters more than she ever bargained for!

I highly recommend this book and every book written by Rachel Dylan. She is one of my favorite romantic suspense authors.

I received this book from the publisher through NetGalley.

Breach of Trust ( Atlanta Justice #3 )
By: Rachel Dylan
Breach of Trust is book three in Atlanta Justice Series. Wow, what a story. I would have to say that Breach of Trust is my favorite. I did not want to put it down. I was not disappointed. Dylan weaves a story with action, suspense , mystery, intrigue, and romance. Mia is a corporate lawyer and finds her best friend and co worker dead. She is determined to find out who did this to her friend. There is action from start to finish and the author will keep you turning those pages and guessing till the end. Is Mia safe? Things are not what they appear to be. Will Justice be done and the killer found before it is to late?
I was given a complimentary copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher, but was not told that I had to give a positive review. All opinions are my own.

Breach of Trust by Rachel Dylan, an engaging and fun read. A lawyer killed right before a big case and the accused might be innocent. The case involves a lot of money and who knows who might be willing to kill because of it.
