No Stone Unturned by author Julie Moffett is a novel filled with secrets and past so dark it’ll have you questioning everyone. Really a great book and I would recommend it!
Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for an arc copy of No Stone Unturned in exchange for an honest review.
Lexi number 11 and WOW! What a story.
Lexi and Slash are engaged and living together in their new house. However, a couple of incidents have Slash traveling to Italy, leaving a worried Lexi behind. Slash is confronted with a part of his past he would rather forget and not have Lexi know. But Lexi is not prepared to let Slash face his demons alone.
Slash has been a mystery for most of the series. The suave and skilled hacker and operative, constantly followed by his own security detail. We finally delve into his background! I loved the descriptions of the beautiful Italian countryside and the visit to Nonna (and her cat!). This book shows Lexi has grown so much and is willing to fight for Slash and their happiness. It has a different vibe to it, but it was a wonderful read and I can't wait for the next.
Of course I can't divulge too much as I don't want to spoil anyone before this book is published in January 2019, but I have been highlighting like crazy and I am sure Julie won't mind me giving some quotes...
'You were completely different from any other woman I'd ever met. I didn't want you to come to me the way most people did. But it also meant I wasn't sure how to go about getting you to love me." "That makes no sense. You just had to be yourself. Obviously, that was enough for me. "
'Why? Slash, do you really have to ask me that? When you gave me this ring, I understood it to mean we're a team in all parts of our lives. The good and the bad. We may not have had the wedding yet, but this ring means everything we face, we face together."
'You're the beginning of my everything," he whispered.
*** I received an ARC from the publisher via Netgalley, but this is my honest and voluntary review. There is a digital copy waiting for me on publication date as I have bought the book myself. ***
I loved this book. It dwells mostly on Slash’s background, especially around his birth and abandonment. Someone is trying to use this information to hurt one of Slash’s family. Of course he tries to keep Lexi out of it to protect her but she’s having none of that. So they go around Italy searching and finding trouble and answers. I can’t wait until the next book to is what happens. #NoStoneUnturned #NetGalley
LOVED this book! In this novel, Slash finds his very secret past catching up with him and threatening Lexi. He flies to Italy to delve into who is behind the threats. Lexi, who only knows something is wrong, is left behind in Slash's efforts to protect her. Lexi doesn't like being left behind and immediately jumps in to help him, whether he wants it or not.
I found myself totally engrossed in this novel, from the very first page until the very last page. In particular, I loved learning about Slash's past - his real past, not the sanitized version he's told people. While looking into the threats, Lexi finds a way to get herself into more trouble and Slash learns painful truths about his early years.
This is a must read for fans of the genre. Each book in the series is better than the one before. This is a stand alone novel, however, you'll enjoy it so much more if you've read the prior books. The series is so good that you really owe it to yourself to read them all.
I received a free copy of NO STONE UNTURNED (Lexi Carmichael Mysteries: Book 11) by Julie Moffett in exchange for an honest review. Lexi is dreading the fanfare and brouhaha required by her upcoming nuptials. When her fiancé, Slash, receives vague threats, he flies off to Italy to deal with the situation and excludes Lexi from both the decision loop and the investigation. This causes Lexi to experience a deeper dread because Slash is now pushing her away and keeping secrets, which means Slash does not trust her. Lexi refuses to accept this and follows Slash to render assistance whether he wants it or not. The following adventure takes the engaged couple on a tour of Italy, Italy’s priests, and may even end up at the highest levels of the Vatican.
I love the Lexi Carmichael Series. The characters are likeable, there are funny moments, and the storylines are interesting. This was a good addition to the series, and I am looking forward to the next installment.
