Twilight Tactics by Lynette Eason is this week’s Reader Friday! Here’s the opening: “FBI Special Agent Collin Sullivan—aka Sully—gripped the SUV’s wheel and glanced in the rearview mirror once more. The silver sedan was still there, following at a discreet distance, but it was enough to set his teeth on edge.”
But first the photo and verse. I took the photo from the rooftop of the Bristol Hotel Sunday night. We’d gone there to look at the Bristol skyline when suddenly people were rushing to the railing with their cameras. I looked to see why, and the moon was just topping the trees. It was beautiful. I snapped several pics and will use them and others in the coming weeks. The verse is one I claimed a long time ago. I just need to remember that God will fight my battles for me, if I’ll let him.
Here’s the cover and back copy for Twilight Tactics Soldiers in Shadows, Book #1 by Lynette Eason:
FBI agent Collin Sullivan arrives at Broken Chains Ranch with Ollie Callahan—a foster teen and sole witness to a mob hit. The ranch, started by Collin’s cousin to provide a trauma recovery facility for veterans, should be a place he can keep Ollie safe until the trial. But what was meant as a peaceful haven becomes a battleground when armed attackers surround the property.
Survival expert Elena Thompson teaches wilderness skills at the ranch and coaches Ollie in self-defense. But soon the series of attacks on the ranch escalates into a full siege. The question is, Who are the attackers after? Ollie, the young witness? Or Elena, with her mysterious past? Cut off from help by tech skills superior to their own, Collin and Elena fight to keep everyone alive as secrets and danger close in.
USA Today bestselling author Lynette Eason presents an action-packed start to a new series with twists and turns readers will never see coming.
My take:
This was one wild and twisty story. Lynette has outdone herself with Twilight Tactics. The story grabbed me from the first page and never let go. Sully is a fantastic hero, and Elena was an amazing heroine. The two of them together made quite a combination. And Ollie, the young witness, was amazing. I was rooting for her from the get-go.
The story has twists that I didn’t see coming. I listened to it and made up excuses to clean house so I could pop in my earbuds and listen to more of the story. I totally recommend this high-octane story!

Great picture. Lynette Eason’s books are always good. Just finished The Last Chance Series by Lisa Phillips there are 10 books in all. Lots of action in all the books with a constant reminder of God’s love and protection.

Beautiful moon picture! Twilight Tactics sounds exciting. And I love “I Have Decided to Follow Jesus.” Congratulations to Gloria Anderson!

Thanks, Priscilla! I love taking moonshots! Your book sounds like an incredible read!
Wonderful photo of the rising moon! Too often I try to fight my own battles–bad idea. When I let God fight them, He wins them for me.
Congratulations Gloria!
I loved Lynette’s “Twilight Tactics”. Her books never miss.
I’m currently reading another great book. This one by Kate Angelo. It’s “Fatal Pattern”, book 2 of the King Legacy, and begins with “The cold edge of the blade kissed Tori Crew’s throat, drawing a rivulet of blood that began its decent down her neck.” How’s that for a grabber first line?
Author
What an opening line, Tim! I’ll have to get that one.
That is a gorgeous photo.
I’m pleased to be reading and enjoying your newest book!

That sounds really interesting, Paula!
Gorgeous moon shot over the mountain, Pat. I love the way the orange filters out from the middle. And the scripture. . .YES!! The Lord fights for us! Isn’t that always amazing?
I finished Twilight Tactics last night and I agree it is full of powerful twists! You are spot on with the characters, too. They were amazing. And that Ollie. What a pip! Fun review.
Getting ready to start Fatal Finale by Nancy Mehl. “Kaely’s eyes fluttered open, and she tried to focus on her surroundings. Where was she?

I’m reading Don’t Cross the Blue Line by Susan May and Sarah May Warren. A good light-hearted read. Sometimes I need a break from the intense suspense. LOL

Oh wow! Thank you, Pat, for the win. Thank you everyone for the congrats. I love Lynette’s books and this one is on my TBR list. The moon was lovely last weekend. Great photo. I am reading Deck the Hall with Boughs of Murder by Jacqueline Frost. The first line:
Heavenly aromas of rich milk chocolate mixed with the sweet scents of kettle corn and candied nuts on the town square.
I saw that photo in a recent email you sent and I was hoping you’d use it here. Gorgeous!
I just finished one of Barbara Johnson’s later books, Living Somewhere Between Estrogen and Death. Funny stuff but also very inspiring. Who knew us old folks are chronically gifted!!
That is quite a picture, Pat! Good choice of scripture verse and song.
I enjoyed Lynette’s book. I am reading Searching for You, the last book in Jody Hedlund’s Orphan Train series.
New York City
September 1859
Sophie Neumann nuzzled her nose against Danny’s chest.
Don’t let the first line throw you. Probably if I had not known anything about Jody Hedlund before picking up the book, I would have put it back down. However, I know her books are clean, so I continued reading. It’s an interesting story.
The photo us AMAZING!!! I will finish an ARC titled Montana Christmas Target by Terri Reed tonight. It is a Love Inspired Suspense.
