4.0 out of 5 stars Better than I expected, April 18, 2008

This review is from: Stark Knight (A Knight's Inc. Adventure Book One) (Paperback)

A friend loaned me this book, and told me I'd enjoy it despite my past disappointment with authors from small publishers. And she was right! Turner writes an intriguing story that kept me interested from start to finish, and the romance was terrific. Strong sexual tension, nice insight into the characters thoughts and feelings, and a well-crafted ending. I will definitely keep an eye out for more from this author in the future.

5.0 out of 5 stars Look Out James Bond and Lara Croft; Your replacements have debuted, July 21, 2007

This review is from: Stark Knight (A Knight's Inc. Adventure Book One) (Paperback)

I am absolutely blown away by author J. R. Turner's novel Stark Knight. This book has a merging of James Bond and Lara Croft type action and a hot romance to boot! This is how it would be if James Bond met Lara Croft, and they joined forces to prevent a possible nuclear disaster. Toss in espionage, kidnapping, treason, add a little treachery, and a love so wonderful your toes will curl, and you are just getting started with Stark Knight. I really wish I could give this novel 10 stars. I fell in love with Sara and Drake (The H&H), with their devotion to each other, their military/martial art skills; and their "take no prisoners" attitude. Did I mention a Surprise ending that you will not see coming? This novel would make a fabulous movie! I cannot wait for a sequel!!

This review is from: Stark Knight (A Knight's Inc. Adventure Book One) (Paperback)

When Sarah Stark is rescued by her father's friend, Bruce Knight, from foster care, the street-tough kid moves into a new life where she eventually joins the family business as a field operative in acquisition and recovery.

Accompanied by Bruce's son, Drake, she takes an assignment to investigate a mysterious medallion and, at the same time, track her father's killer. Along the way, the attraction between Drake and Stark develops into something more as they discover a nefarious plot that is bigger and more deadly than they imagined.

This story has instant appeal that grows with every page. Intrigue, romance, exotic settings, rollicking action and unforgettable characters make this a fresh, fast and fun read. This first novel by J. R. Turner will most certainly be enjoyed by a broad spectrum of readers. I'm looking forward to more from this author.
