So much evil threatens San Antonio, and Librarian Jackie Santoro is caught in the middle of it all. Threats of danger, bombs, and blame overturn her ordered world and force change not only in her own life but for the city too. Someone wants revenge, but it's unclear why or who is really responsible for the death and destruction. The author did a fine job portraying realistic, flawed characters who struggle and who tug at the reader's heart. Family and friendship play major roles in this chilling thriller, yet should they always be more important than anything else. Detective Avery Wick seeks not only to solve the crimes and stop the rampage, but perhaps a relationship with Jackie too. That adds to the dilemma and the stress. The complicated story offers plenty to think about. I received a copy from the author. All opinions are my own.

Jackie is a librarian who is faced with a bombing at a recent gathering she organized. Avery is the responding detective who thinks Jackie has something to avenge. These two characters have a chemistry that starts when they first lock eyes and everything goes at breakneck speed throughout the rest of the book! I haven't read very many of Irving's work, but this one was relevant, exciting and held my interest.

For anyone who likes romantic suspense and storylines ripped from the headlines, "Her Every Move" is just the book you need for a weekend book binge!

"She'd moved a backpack and Estrella had died. . . . . . God forgive me."

People are dying in San Antonio, Texas. Librarian and event coordinator Jackie Santoro has landed directly in the epicenter. One of her very best friends, one of her mother's very best friends, an experienced caterer, city officials, the police chief, . . . and the list of victims from multiple bombs continues to grow; for some reason law enforcement is determined to link Jackie's family to these heinous crimes. Or at least, it seems that way. One very curious and determined detective seems to be around her every corner, Detective Avery Wick.

Detective Wick likes to fit random pieces of crime puzzles together, and nothing about the San Antonio serial bomber fits. The perpetrator claims to be part of an organization that doesn't exist and he/she seems to continually be ahead of any attempts to prevent the next catastrophe. Jackie Santoro's family has plenty of reason to hate city bureaucrats, but Avery's gut instinct tells him that she is innocent . . . . the beautiful city librarian is giving off multiple vibes, from anger all the way to something else, and it's that "something else" that could be equally dangerous . . to his heart.

A little jagged around the edges, this story gives off mixed signals when it comes to how the characters actually feel about their faith and about each other. While the language on the page is clean, Avery obviously has no self control over his expletives. Thankfully, balance is the key to every good book, and while the characterizations might have been marginally off-putting, the story itself is fascinating. I never did figure it out, and the last chapter was one of the best.

My title for this review is found on page #338 in this book, "bizarre situation." Irvin's writing is solid, but her attempt to include every politically correct line item was unsettling. Her nod to racial, religious, marriage/divorce, economic, gender, and educational diversity was unexpected. It left one hovering question: Why acknowledge these issues? The most extreme scenario was Avery-Chandra-Jackie; simply wrong on so many levels. After reading two previous Irvin books I anticipated an enjoyable read. Didn't happen; only a bizarre situation occurred.

In this latest release, readers will be on their every move to finish this book! This book was suspense at its highest. Readers will also enjoy the romantic aspects to the book as well. I have always enjoyed her books, but this book seemed even more engaging and made the me want to sit and read until I reached the end. This book focuses on Jackie who police first believe had something to do with a deadly bombing in San Antonio even though she was present during the bombing. The detective, Avery, is trying to determine the truth to what occurred and who is really behind the bombing. As time goes forward, there are more worries regarding more bombs going off in the city. Together, Avery and Jackie must combine forces to figure out what is going on and how they can stop whoever it is. I highly recommend this book and know you will not be disappointed! If you enjoy highly engaging and suspenseful books, then this book is for you! I was given a free electronic copy of this book from the publisher. This is my honest opinion. Even though I received this copy free, this is my own opinion.
