What Did I Think?

There is so much I could say because this one collection has 15 books, but I won’t talk about all of them (I don’t think we have that much time!). My favorite novellas were Consecrated Sacrifice by Mary Alford and The Last Day by Lisa Harris, but really all of them had something I liked. All of the novellas can be read as a standalone, even though some of them are part of a series. Each story was very unique, yet had the same elements of suspense, mystery, faith and a dash of romance and I really loved the wide variety of stories in this collection. In one story, you meet a young lady who is supposed to be the CEO of her company, yet has been hiding because someone tried to kill her shortly after her mom passed away. And in another you meet a CIA agent that was presumed dead 10 years prior! I’ll be honest, this book took awhile to read (because it’s 15 novellas), but each moment was worth it because of the many adventures I read about. Overall, I loved how each of the stories had a suspenseful element, yet each of them had a different level of suspense which made this collection perfect for everyone! (some were creepier then others) I rate the collection 5 out of 5 stars.

Also, this novella collection is the perfect opportunity to find new author’s to add to your favorites list (I found 5 new-to-me authors to add to my must read list!)

Rating: 5 out of 5.

About the Authors

The authors of Dangerous Pursuits are excited to present 15 tales of mystery and suspense to readers for a limited time. From suspense to mystery, clean to Christian, these authors have come together to create a collection of tales that will leave you flipping pages until the very last one.

A Word from Mary Alford

Have you ever wondered how a book collection comes to be. Well, it all starts with an idea.

Dangerous Pursuits was the brainchild of author Dana Mentink who reached out to me with the idea of creating a book collection featuring multiple authors. We decided we wanted to try and make the USA Today Bestsellers List with this collection which is quite the challenge.

With the help of Cynthia Hickey, who created the fabulous cover for Dangerous Pursuits, we set out to put together a collection of mystery and suspense books to please our readers.

We reached out to some of our fellow authors who graciously agreed to help, and now we are blessed to have this amazing line-up of 15 wonderful authors. Lisa Harris, Therese Heckenkamp, Cynthia Hickey, Gina Holder, Ronie Kendig, Loree Lough, Dana R Lynn, Shirlee McCoy, Dana Mentink, J. Carol Nemeth, Cara Putman, Sharee Stover, Terri Reed, Lenora Worth, and myself, Mary Alford.

The book is set to release on October 12th. Cynthia gave the cover a mysterious fall feel that we believe will appeal to readers who love mystery and suspense. Next we came up with a catchy blurb that hopefully adds to the fall suspense theme;

Crisp Days. Cold Nights. Dangerous Pursuits.

The chill of fall brings with it a hint of peril in Dangerous Pursuits, a clean and Christian suspense anthology featuring some of today’s most popular female authors.

And so, Dangerous Pursuits was born.

I am very proud to be part of this collection. With so many talented authors bringing their best, I believe our readers will find something they enjoy, and we look forward to each of you reading it.

Because above all else, it’s all about the story.

Blessings always,

Mary Alford
