My Review

Last Chance provides the setup for the upcoming DELOS series, and if this short prequel is any indication then readers will be in for an action-packed ride!  There's a nice chunk of backstory for both the DELOS organization as well as LIa's character, along plenty of excitement after Lia crosses the local drug lord.

I thought Lia's character was tremendously strong and determined, and the tone and pace of the story had my heart pounding right alongside hers once the action revs up.  You won't find any romance here in the prequel, but you will find plenty of action that will keep you glued to the pages...and it will definitely get you on the hook for the first book in the series.

4 stars for Last Chance, and I'd recommend for 18+...not for any romance reasons, but for a scene of graphic violence.  This short prequel now has me excited to get started on the whole series!








Lindsay McKenna lives her life as a risk taker, and it shines through the books she loves to write: romance, adventure and suspense. She started writing at age thirteen and continues to hone her writing skills to this day. She sold her first romance novel in 1981. The rest is history.
Because she went into the military, this experience became the backbone of her writing—she is credited with writing the first military romance novel (Captive of Fate, 1983, Silhouette Special Edition) and has created a thriving sub-genre within the romance field! As a New York Times Best Selling author, she has sold 23 million books and in 32 foreign languages in her career thus far. Her many experiences in the U.S. Navy are backdrop for her understanding of the military in general, and also her very successful Morgan’s Mercenaries, which is an ongoing series in Silhouette to this day! Forty-five books strong!
Lindsay has gone Indie in 2015 and has created a new family saga on par with Morgan’s Mercenaries It is known as the DELOS SERIES. There will be paperback and eBooks created under Blue Turtle Publishing, her company for her fans. Readers who love Morgan and his family are bound to fall in love with the Culver family. Delos is romantic suspense, which Lindsay is well known for. It took her five years to create and bring DELOS to her readers. It was worth the wait, but we’ll let you decide that.
Lindsay loves to hear from her readers and loves to know what they’d like to see her write next. Stay up with the latest on the Delos Series here. Please visit her Web site at www.lindsaymckenna.com.
