Plot twists inside
I loved this book. So many twists and turns. For a moment I thought I knew who the bad guys were, then BAM! It's not who you think it is. The connection between the hero and heroine is wonderful. You fall in love with them falling in love. Karen Kirst is an amazing author.

What do you look for when you purchase a book? For me, it's the author, cover and synopsis. Intensive Care Crisis met all three! It's fast paced, exciting and a great read!!

My review today is on the Love Inspired Suspense, Intensive Care Crisis. This is the second book about the US Marine Corps Heroes. It is well written, action packed, and full of faith. I know you are going to love it. I always have enjoyed Karen's books but she hasn't done suspense books for LIS until recently. I'm so gland she has. She does a great intrigue.

Registered Nurse Audrey Harris found something wrong with the narcotics in the hospital. She goes to co-workers and then finally reports the missing drugs. As soon as she makes her report strange things start happening to her patients. Someone is trying to discredit her and her work. When someone tries to kill one of her patients, a marine, he makes a serious mistake because now she has a protector.

Marine Sergeant Julian Tan was injured in a training accident. After having a reaction to his stitches he comes to the hospital for a simple procedure only to have someone try to take his life. When his nurse saves his life he is drawn to her. He had met her before, she's his boss' daughter and therefore out of his reach. He is trying to find out what happened to him, he knows he has no enemies here. What is she not telling him? He goes to the hospital for a post-op check up when she passed by. He follows her to ask questions again but interrupts an attack on her. Can he keep her safe until they find out who is after her?

A terrifying journey to escape the hands of a thief and a killer. God has a plan for these two; a plan for a hope and a future. God has a plan for you too. A good plan and not for evil.

First off -- love that cover. It's a bit different from the usual LI cover art and the colours and soft focused image really grabbed my attention. Plus, this is Karen Kirst so, of course, I had to read it! And the story inside definitely delivers what the cover promises.

The hospital setting ups the tension -- kind of like ER with a suspense plot (remember that TV show?) Audrey's life is plunged into chaos when she did the right thing. The responsible thing. And it nearly gets Julian killed in the process. And then -- phew -- danger lurks around every corner when the crime she reported turns out to be just the tip of a particularly daunting iceberg.

Lots of breathless action scenes are tempered with intimate relationship building ones and I really love the balance between the two. It's all hurry up and fight for your life' and then, wait, let's pause for a moment so we can appreciate how totally amazing this Marine hero is and how spunky this heroine is and how they clash and sizzle and light things up whenever they're together.

The lethal combination of deadly betrayal, reluctant romance and mega plot twists compel me to issue a seat belt warning alert. You'll need one...and chocolate, because when do we ever not need chocolate?...before immersing yourself in this gripping romantic suspense.

I have recently received some great advice to help when reviewing books for authors. Unfortunately, one idea was to limit your review to the first three chapters of the book so as not to give any spoilers away. That doesn’t do justice to Intensive Care Crisis though. The first three chapters are action-packed, fast-paced, keep you on the edge of your seat good, but they are only the appetizer! This book has a hearty main course of intrigue combined with surprises as well as superb accuracy in the medical lingo and scenarios. For dessert, sweetness combines with sass to create likable characters that have relatable quirks and opinions that keep you guessing until the end how they will ever get through the final chapter alive. If you are looking for a wonderful romantic suspense, this is a must read! I look forward to reading more by this author.
I received this book from the publisher for review and all thoughts and comments are my own.

I have enjoyed reading this book so much that I had to finish reading it before I could put it down. This is the second book in this series of Marine Corps Heros. I would recommend it to anyone who has read the first book. Also I hope there is more books in the series of Marine Corps Hero.
