I'm not generally a fan of books that have a sci-fi/paranormal element, but I thoroughly enjoyed the first book in the Winters Sisters series.
The characters are complex and intriguing. Smart, beautiful, sassy, headstrong and loyal are just some of the traits that Victory Winters possess. Her family are the center of her world, so when she is blackmailed into working for an underhanded company she does it to protect those dearest to her.
Tristan Farraday is a sexy, strong, intelligent and alpha Navy operative.
Their romance is a slow burn and I enjoyed the build up of trust, affection and heat to their story.
Chasing Victory is an action, suspense and intrigue filled read with paranormal and sci-fi elements that kept me completely enthralled from the very first page. Paranormal and Sci-Fi is generally not a genre that I take to but Ms Jatanie's style of writing was enjoyable and extremely entertaining and left me wanting to know more of the Winters' family.
