Heart Stopping Romantic ThrillerBy Malaika Tamu
This is a surprisingly enticing debut novel by Mrs. Jean Holloway. This kindle book takes you on a HIGHLY charged emotional rollercoaster ride! It is a FRIGHTENINGLY suspense-filled, romantic murder mystery with LOADS of heart stopping twist and turns that will keep you turning the pages until the very end. I must thank one of my girlfriends for recommending this kindle book, because had she not I would have missed this thrilling ride. The characters were quite engaging. The storyline was well developed and the attention to detail made me feel like I was watching a very entertaining, yet spine-chilling movie. I found myself completely and thoroughly caught up in the drama of Detective Shevaughn Robinson's life, professional and personal. The sensual, yet endearing romance between Shevaughn and Tony aided in lightening the mood of an otherwise intense and sometimes disturbing erotic thriller. Tony was a sweet, good looking, compassionate, thoughtful and protective man, who wanted to help his woman in EVERY aspect of her life, professionally and personally. I also enjoyed the budding new partnership/friendship between Shevaughn and Detective Jared Benjamin, he was like the overprotective big brother she never had. Mrs. Holloway DEFINITELY keeps you in suspense throughout this novel, when you think you know what's going to happen, she'll shock you with an unexpected twist and/or turn. I hope she's able to keep me just as captivated with the upcoming sequel!

Engrossing Debut!By Rondo W.
The year--1981. The town--Portsborough, NY. The theme--murder!
Ace of Hearts begins with a page-turning scene in which you witness the first murderous act of a serial killer who charms women, then kills them in an unspeakable manner.
Enter Shevaughn Robinson, Portsborough's first black female detective. Shevaughn is assigned to the case, which quickly becomes a media frenzy as more bodies start popping up. In her quest to solve the murders, she's aided by Tony O'Brien, a good-looking reporter who shows her that there's more to life than murder cases. As Shevaugn digs deeper into the "Ace of Hearts" murders, the killer becomes obsessed with her...to fatal consequences.
This kindle book was fast-paced and eerily exciting. I felt guilty for wanting more because it's such a wicked thing the killer does to his victims. But I think that's the mark of a good kindle book, when the writer can take the reader out of their comfort zone and still have them captivated, and that's what Ms. Holloway does throughout the kindle book! If you're looking for a tidy, cookie-cutter-ending, this kindle book isn't for you (when a kindle book opens with murder, you know things can't end well!). Ms. Holloway wraps it up with a clever twist that will leave you wondering what will happen next to Dectective Robinson!
Jean Holloway has written an engrossing debut novel and I look forward to her next kindle book!

Spellbinding!By Urban Reviews
Shevaughn Robinson has a lot of pressure on her since becoming Portsborough, New York's first African-American female detective. Her job becomes even more challenging when she starts investigating a series of horrific murders. Unbeknownst to Shevaughn, the killer has his eyes set not only on his victims, but on her as well. Shevaughn also has to deal with an investigative reporter named Tony O'Brien who is getting way too close for comfort. Tony may get more than he bargained for when he suddenly finds himself in the middle of a criminal investigation. It's a race against time as Shevaughn tries to catch the Ace of Hearts killer before he claims another victim.
Ace of Hearts is a spellbinding thriller by Jean Holloway. Holloway grabs your attention from the very first page. The character development for this story is what really makes this novel stand out. You feel the anxiety of Shevaughn as she tries to catch this very sadistic killer. There are also some good secondary characters such as Tony O'Brien that add just the right touch to this kindle book. Readers will find themselves glued to the pages as this story unfolds at a rapid pace. There's also a sort of cliffhanger ending to this novel that could lead to another kindle book. Ace of Hearts is emotionally-charged and suspenseful. Hopefully, this is the start of a good detective series by Jean Holloway.
