I was given a copy of this book for an honest review
Chase is working as a police officer and is married to Jess . They have two girls and seem to have a normal life. Jess never liked Chase being in the military and now that he is a cop she hates his job even more. It is never easy to be married to someone whose job it is to protect others.
There is a call about a break in at a house and Chase goes to investigate. As he is exploring the house, he finds a little girl huddled in the corner. Chase soon discovers that her parents and sister have been savagely murdered. The little girl tells Chase the brown man said to look at her and the rest of her family and he would know what the man wants.
This sets the stage for a fast paced run for your life action packed thriller. What many don't know about Chase is that he works for a special outfit with the U.S. Government . He has been working undercover for the last four years and it looks like someone is out for revenge.
There are several scenes in the book that are written so charged with action that I couldn't put the book down. The author describes Jess, Chase's wife as a very strong person. As you read the interaction between Jess and another woman , the intensity is so high, you catch yourself gasping as you devour the scene. It is an unforgettable fight for survival that is masterfully written.
The author is very well versed in weapons and details them brilliantly. There are several very powerful weapons that are used and with the detail from the author you can envision them with precise accuracy.
This is a story about power, drugs and betrayal . The question arises if the politicians of our great country would allow drugs to be brought in on purpose. What would be their motive? Can Chase carry out his assignment and trust everyone on his team? Will his parents be able to keep his family safe? Can he trust his family to have his back? This is one book that is sure to keep you guessing to the end. The author does not hold back on delivering a powerful explosive ending that readers will not see coming. if you are looking for a book that has nonstop action, deceit, power struggle and revenge, then " A Family Affair" is one you can't pass up.

Zillia is a young girl that has lost her papa and now lives withheld mom and stepfather. Her mother is a sweet , kind and gentle soul who is about to give birth. Jeb, the stepfather is a mean, uncaring, selfish man who drinks more than he should. He treats his wife with little respect and at times hits her with no remorse .
Zillia finds herself alone the day her mother goes into labor. She tries the best she can to help her mother and tells her stepfather to go fetch the doctor. Zillia senses that things are not right as her mother struggles to deliver the baby. On that fateful day, Zillia gains a brother but tragically loses her mother. She feels all alone and a fierce protection comes over her for the baby she now calls Orrie.
One morning as she gets up , she notices to her disbelieve that Jeb has taken everything from the house and disappeared. With strength and determination, Zillia vows to her little brother that he will always have her to care for him. Can she do this on her own? What lengths will Zillia have to endure to run a farm and take care of a child at the tender age of sixteen?
The story is beautifully written with characters that touch you and bring tears to your eyes. The author has given us a strong , but vulnerable character in Zillia. There are times that she is not sure she can survive, but with help from the town and a special person she soon realizes she can make things better for her brother and herself.
I loved the beautiful story that was rich in history and gave us a glimpse into the Native Americans. It shares the hardship of a young woman who finds hope and friendship with people she thought would not help her. Will she be able to raise Orrie? Will the harsh land and work on the farm be to much for her? This story is an inspiration to those who struggle and gives the readers a beautiful story of a young woman who you will see overcome obstacles and grow stronger. It reminds me of the verse in the bible that says, "He will never give you more than you can handle ." ( )
