Jennifer has been taken. Jacob has been left for dead.

What began as a quest for justice has become a race against time to stop a vast plot that reaches far beyond the limits of a sleepy Pennsylvania town.

Outnumbered, outgunned, and on the run, Jacob must find a way to Jennifer, while Jennifer finds a way to survive and escape the sadistic psychopath holding her captive, but even if they find each other, a disaster of terrifying proportions looms on the horizon.

This is the end. In this book, paradise falls.

Shock Waves is the final installment in Abigail Graham’s action-adventure romance serial, Paradise Falls.

Wow, just WOW! I don't know where to begin. This series has been packed with drama, action and even love. Jennifer an Jacob are stopped from returning to Paradise Falls when another car crashes into them. Jacob is beaten badly and Jennifer is kidnapped. Even though he is badly injured, it is up to Jacob to rescue Jennifer and her younger sister from a fanatical terrorist named Faisal. Faisal and his group have planted three dirty bombs in the U.S. and one of them is in Paradise Fall's high school.

The corrupt senator is taken down, and the FBI offers Jacob and Jennifer jobs which they decline. They both go back to teaching at the high school. You have to read this series in order to get all the heart pounding impact of a well written, exciting story. Loved, loved loved this series!!

I received a free copy of this book in exchange for a fair review.

Dont know where to start. This book picks up where the last one left off. Jacob and Jennifer are ambushed and attacked and then Jennifer is taken while Jacob is left presumed dead. The writing is superb and really pulls you into the story. Descriptive that is amazingly well written which makes you see and feel everything like you are right along with them. Movie quality. If you like your romance with a lot of suspense and action with many twists and turns than this is the series for you. It may be a little over the top at times but give it a chance. The fast paced action never stops and will keep you on the edge of your seat until the end where everything comes together in a shocking way that makes sense . Both of these characters are well developed and seem to belong together. Hard to write anything else without spoiling it for you. Well done Ms Graham.

Given to me for an honest review. I found the book very enjoyable and I can live with the ending. Some of the other reviewers thought Ms Graham ended the book too abruptly. I disagree. She didn't drag the ending out like some of the authors I have read. Since you have already read the previous 4 books (you have or need to), you know that there will be plenty of action. You have 2 very determined people (Jennifer and Jacob) trying to stay alive and save lots of people. Love for each other is very apparent and I kept rooting for them to stay alive. You never know. Some author might decide to kill a main character. Really can't add much to this review or I will spoil this book for you. Ms Graham did leave an opening for a character from this book to have a story to tell later. She promises to have Jennifer and Jacob "popping up" in a new book, but not soon.

What a ride. I knew this conclusion was coming out but it was not soon enough. Shock Waves: Paradise Falls Book 5 is a fast-paced, action-never-stops read that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Get ready for a wild ride – the book starts with Jacob and Jennifer being ambushed and attacked. And it gets better and crazier from there. My heart was beating wildly in my chest and didn’t calm down until I finished the book. Great job, Ms. Graham. These two have been thru trials and assassinations (how often to you get to say THAT!) and come out the other side. I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. If you like action, adventure, with a love story on the side, pick up an Abigail Graham book.

**I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review**
This is the 5th and final part in Jennifer and Jacob's story, the first in the Paradise Falls series.This one picks up right where part 4 left off, Jennifer has been taken and Jacob has been left for dead. This story is very fast-paced and action packed. It moved so fast, once I started reading it, I didn't stop until it was done. The story line was very well done. Jennifer was totally able to hold her own with everything she had been taught by Jacob. With everything done to him, his determination to get to her just goes to show how much a man will endure when the woman he loves needs to be saved. My only negative comment is that there were some typos and grammatical errors. I can't wait for the next story from this author.

Shock Waves is the final installment of the five part Paradise Falls Series and it brings to an end the story of Jacob and Jennifer's fight against terrorists, corruption, drug runners and the planned attack by a radical group from the MidEast.

Jennifer is captured and Jacob is hurt but he still goes after her in the action packed ending to the story. The entire series is exciting, full of action and rescues and close calls for this adventurous pair of high school teachers. The romance between them is developed completely by the end of the story to add a sweet romance to the action packed series that I just loved.

I received this in exchange for an honest review.
Although this is the last book in this series, it sits as a stand alone. Jacob and Jennifer are teachers who have been thrown into the world of terrorism, motorcycle gangs and sex trafficking.After being rammed in a car,beaten ,shot and knifed both of them still manage to kill the head terrorist, save the day and remain in love. The author makes the characters leap off the page and I could swear I could smell cordite at several pages. I will have to find the other 4 books in this series.

A Great Story!

Abigail, You have done it again. The storyline was true from the first page til the last page. Jacob and Jennifer played off of each other so well, it was great to watch the relationship grow and mature as each book told their story. This book as well as the first four is well worth reading. It has a little of everything: Mystery, intrigue, romance, some sweet sex scenes, which was refreshing and an all around good story. Great writing!

It was really exciting to read about Jennifer and Jacobs story. I remember them from the book Hawk from the stepbrother series and they always intrigued me.

My god did these do go through a lot. First from losing family and partners to being shot at, stabbed at, kidnapped, saving children from a school that was about to expolde. It was truly an amazing series.

My only wish is that there was more sex in this book. I could totally see it being steamy between Jennifer and Jacob.

In this conclusion to the series, Jennifer and Jacob find themselves fighting for their lives over and over again while trying to uncover the plot that could destroy their town and the people they love. I found myself unable to put the book down, as I was so invested in the story and was anxious to see what happened next. It was an incredible series and I am kind of sad to see it end.

Before Jacob she did not know what love was. She knew she loved him and he loved her. I think they in this book it shows how strong their love really is.
They discover they big picture and danger of all the corruption. Jennifer and Katie’s life become in danger. Later Jacob and Jennifer go to save the day.

Very enjoyable read

I really liked the way the book ended. Jennifer and Jacob made a great couple. I was happy to hear about Saba'a and her return. I can't wait for the book about the MC. It is one of my favorite romance and erotica tales.
