It’s no secret that I’m an action reader. Combine an action packed plot with a smart, plucky, and likable main character and I’m a happy reader! Wallace Stroby’s books have been making me a happy reader- first with his Carissa Stone series and now with his latest book Heaven’s a Lie. 

Joette Harper is down on her luck and working the front desk at a crummy hotel. One night, a deadly car accident takes place in front of the motel. Joette finds a bag full of money in wreckage and she impulsively takes it. She has debts to pay and could use a change of luck. Joette’s decision to keep the cash puts her life in danger when a very bad man comes looking for his money. 

Joette is a very real main character. She’s still grieving the death of her husband, trying to pay off medical bills, and dealing with her mother who had a debilitating stroke. Joette’s desperation keeps her fighting to keep the money against all odds. 

This book is perfect for readers who like high octane thrillers and smart, strong, and resourceful main characters. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The long holiday weekend is upon us. I’m at my daughter’s house babysitting her dogs while she and her husband are away at a wedding for the weekend. I’ll just be hanging out with their two dogs and reading. What are your weekend plans?
