T.I.M.E. BOOK REVIEW
Looking for a "mix tape" of a book that combines a great thriller story, action adventure and even a steamy romance? Meet your match with Overkill by Sandra Brown.
Throw in an equally appealing mix of locations with Atlanta, New Orleans and — the most spectacular of them all — a rural mountain designer cabin in Western North Carolina that has a killer view of a waterfall.
Not finished yet though... The two main characters may seem as different as can be but their chemistry is zip-zapping from the first "hello"! Think Tom Brady meets Tinker Bell... if Tinker Bell was an attorney with a brain equally as magical as her spritely appearance.
This was my first Sandra Brown read (I know, I know... Where have I been?!)... And I loved how she writes with abandon as she builds her story based on thrill overload... Engaging all the senses.
And... the final sequence is pretty breathtaking. I don't want to spoil anything for you... Just be prepared to take a "leap of faith" that may cost you a few hours of sleep.
Perfect for readers who would love a "casserole dish" of a book... ✨😎✨

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Sandra Brown's Overkill is a thriller novel that follows former Super Bowl MVP quarterback Zach Bridger. After his volatile marriage to Rebecca Pratt ended in an all-out battle and provided headlines in the media that relentlessly continue — much to Rebecca's delight and Zach's misery — the two have not seen each other since.
That is until Zach receives a call that Rebecca has been placed on life support after a violent assault.
As her medical power of attorney, Zach is asked to make the impossible choice of whether to keep her on life support or take her off of it.
The responsibility and public scrutiny become unbearable and Zach ultimately walks away deferring to Rebecca's parents' wishes to keep her alive regardless of her bleak medical status.
But when Rebecca's attacker, Eban Clarke, is released from prison early, Zach is approached by the state prosecutor, Kate Lennon, with a plan to retry Eban on a higher charge of murder.
What follows is a fast-paced, roller-coaster ride of a novel that is impossible to put down. Brown expertly weaves a tale of love, deception, and betrayal that will leave readers hooked until the very last page.
BOOK CLUB DISCUSSION:
Responsibilities of establishing and accepting a medical power of attorney can be emotionally, spiritually, and mentally taxing.
Best intentions for everyone involved can be challenging to navigate, especially when it comes to relationships that have ended poorly.
Making life and death choices, especially for someone else, are filled with endless considerations unique to each circumstance.
BOOK QUOTE:
"Communications technology and social media have changed the world in positive ways. But they've also created a public arena in which anyone — not only celebrities, but anyone — could find themself defending their privacy, their integrity, even their life, for the amusement of a universal, bloodthirsty audience." - Overkill by Sandra Brown
