Lean On Me

Alex The Fey #4

by Claudia Hall Christian

Free falling into a war zone, Lieutenant Colonel Alexandra “The Fey” Hargreaves learns that her former intern, Sergeant Larry Flagg, and his Special Forces team have failed to report. One missing team, one personal worry, magnifies as the shocking disappearance of nearly two hundred active Special Operations soldiers becomes reality. When Alex uncovers a hidden threat to national security, she and her Fey Team are caught in a web spun by a computer genius.


Lean on Me is a journey across the globe; atop the canyons of Paktika Province and under the North Dakota plain, south for a day on Harkers Island and south again in the Indian Ocean as Alex and the Fey Team rescue hostages, outsmart an old enemy, and discover a trail that leads from the murder of the Fey Special Forces Team to the destruction of the world.


The fourth installment in the Alex the Fey thriller series, Lean on Me, delivers the members of the Fey Team in action like never before as Alex Hargreaves takes on the gut-wrenching mantle of command and comes to terms with her own first rule of “Wherever you are, it is your friends who make your world.”

This was the fastest read so far in the series. Alex and her team learn that her previous intern has disappeared. What no one has put together yet is that there are various specialty teams that have gone missing, all over the world, and they are from different countries. She leans on her friendships from over the years, bringing in people in particular disciplines to hunt down and track this world security risk. Undermining all her work is the US Government who has yanked her funding and is requiring the team, including The Fey, to testify in front of a council about the previous work of the team. Distractions aside, there is time for family and cementing friendships. Tons of action, heaps of suspense, and a variety of imaginative ways to get around the rules set for her & her team.

This book was really great; with just enough paranormal, romance, suspense, and action. Unfortunately, if you are unable to overlook typos, grammatical errors, and such this isn't the book for you. Also, at times the story can be difficult to follow and a little confusing. I think with a better editor and a little polishing on consistency or the flow this author and series could have been mind blowing. Even with all the mistakes and confusion; it will still make it to my favorites list. I think that says it all. Something about this series really captures me (pun intended). Again, if you are a stickler for grammar, the flow, etc... you will have a hard time appreciating this series

It took me a while to start this one because I knew that once I started, I wouldn't be able to put it down. I was correct! This was another amazing installment of the Alex the Fey story, and I loved every page of it. I love the action, suspense, and the romance between Alex and John - all of it. I was so sad that Dahlia died so tragically, but I like the story of Troy and the boys learning to be part of the larger Fey family. I also absolutely love the way we learn more about the Alex's dad's friends. And I loved the ending! I cannot wait for the next installment!
