I live in a small town in Wisconsin. From my deck, I can see the Mississippi River on one side and the bluffs, where eagles live and nest on the other side. I live with my husband Dave and dog Buddy. My two children are grown and I have two grandchildren. I love to watch people and that has helped me with my writing. I often use people I watch as characters in my books and I always try to give my characters some of my own values and habits.

I love to create characters and put them in a troubling situation then sit back and let them do all the work. My characters surprise even me at times. At some point in the book, they take on a life of their own and the twists and turns they create becomes the story. Of all the stories, I could write I found I like mystery/thrillers the best. I like to keep my readers guessing until the very end of the book.

Blew my mind

Michael, Gage, Phoebe, and Willow take you on a highly emotional,action packed read that will leave you trying to figure out who is the bad guy and who is not. Each page uncovers another plot that adds more to the story by the end it all comes out will thy figure it out in time or lose ? Amazing read that will have you guessing ad doesn't disappoint. Can wait to read the next.

Great Read, horrible editing

These books are really good to read! There is a hook to grasp you in, and once your in, you don’t want to stop.
To who ever edited these books from this author, needs a new job. There were so many grammar errors, punctuation errors, and constantly repeats. Also, when one thing was mentioned, it was completely different in another chapter. Also the timeline was just bad. I honestly can’t describe the timeline in these books. Skipping way ahead of time, or mentioned something in the past as if it was 15 years ago, but says it happened a few days ago. Not too sure if that makes any sense. I’m not trying to bash the writer. I absolutely enjoyed these books. But to be an author, one needs to make sure the timeline is correct and that means to keep going over and over until you no it’s correct. Also the repeats of the same thing was annoying. The authors editor seems like he/she got paid to do nothing.

I do recommend these books, but for me it was just too many errors. Some can stand it an others like myself can’t get over it.

Wow so many twists and turns!

This book was jam packed with action and so many twists and turns that it was difficult to keep up.
This centred on Michael whose wife and daughter were murdered in their beds 5 years ago. It was in retaliation of Michael's nearly uncovering of key people in a terrorist organisation.
The story began where the previous book ended. Michael's gets recruited into the fold to gain his expertise in foiling the dangerous plot to destroy America.
During the story so many twists and turns occurred that it kept your interest to the end. It was amazing how it all unfolded. Just when you think everything has been sorted and uncovered, something else drops up.
Things are never as they seem as well people aren't who they appear to be.
Amazing book. Can't wait to read the next book in the series.

Amazing

Wow that is quite a book a threat against the USA and the total way of life by a group the Bleu Vipers that have been planning a full take over of the country and getting people into positions of power for many years. Homeland Security and the FBI have been infiltrated as has the White House, they have planted bombs all over the Country to cause chaos it takes a small group of dedicated people to bring them down and save the nation. It's a fascinating book with lots of twists the author has provided yet again a brilliant storyline that keeps you riveted from start to finish.

I received this book through book funnel from the author and am happy to review it. This is the fourth book in this series and just like the first three books I happily recommend it. Featuring Gage, Willow, Michael and Phoebe this story carries on the fight for the freedom of America and making sure there is no terrorism within it's borders. Also the romance between these two couples while uncovering what happened in the past that can affect the future.

More drama than romance

Although this book seemed to be more drama than romance and I couldn't tell who the story was about Gage and Willow or Michael and Phoebe I enjoyed reading it none the less. It picked up where the last story left off and left me waiting for the next installment.

Twists and turns

So this was quite suspenseful! There was always something leaning to the next level. Yep it was a nail biter to see if Michael was gonna find what he was looking for once they finally got him on board. Need to know what happens with Willow. Yes she needs her HEA. Good read.

Awesome series

I really like reading and when I find a really good book I tend to get lost in it so I just got lost in these books and I couldn't put them down till I read the whole thing so if you want a book with a thrilling plot I suggest this series

Vengeance is best served...

Wow! Never saw this one coming. Tru,u leaves the mind to wonder. While not her typical hardcore MC book, it works well with the Hell's Fire Riders MC series!

Cold Vengeance is a wonderful story. There is a serious plot to destroy the entire US Government. Michael is called back to help with the plot. There's action, suspense, mystery, it's unpredictable and there's romance. These books are best read in order of the series. Ms. Dahlen did it again!!!

Good book

Not as captivating as the first few books. It was a good read with a good story but was a bit drawn out.

Way too much going on. Way too many characters, it's very confusing. It also has a lot of editing issues. Again, it's called Hell's Fire, but it's not really.

This action-packed story had me all caught up in Michael and Phoebe as they fight against time to ward off a terrorist attack and get vengeance for those that were lost against this group. It is a well written story that had me connecting with the characters and cheering them on to getting their chance for happiness.
