    In this installment of the Fatal series, Sam Holland must find out if the computer enhanced progressive aging picture is actually that of Josh Hamilton, son of the director of the FBI. If it is, then the director stole Josh as a baby and raised him as his own son.
    The mystery in this book was very interesting and enjoyable to read. I was happy to see that Force backed off of the continuing complications in Sam Holland's life that was starting to make the stories beyond belief. Overall, a good entry in the Fatal series.

    I very much enjoy Marie Force's 'Fatal' series and was pleased to be provided with an electronic ARC. I appreciate that the author has great writing skills and that she continues to develop characters that the reader has come to expect in the storylines. Book 10 is about yet another corrupt group of politicians who got away with a bad deed decades ago and are now trying to prevent the coverup from being uncovered. And while I happen to believe that most politicians are liars and cheats in real life, it would be nice to have stories involving Sam and Nick that were apolitical.Book 10 is not my favorite in the series, but it was a good read. I very much appreciate the "freebie" from the publisher. I was in no way coerced into writing a positive review, it was only requested that I do so if I was so inclined.

    Fatal Identity by Marie Force is a 2016 HQN publication. I was provided a copy of this book by the publisher and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. After all the terrifying events that took place in ‘Fatal Scandal’, the next book, ‘Fatal Frenzy’ slowed things down and allowed Sam to address some heavy PTSD symptoms, and gave everyone else a chance to deal with the fall out. But, as cathartic as this was, for the characters and perhaps for the reader as well, I was happy to see this tenth installment get back to a more balanced pace. Sam must cool her heels after being handed a suspension, while everyone nervously waits to see if the second lady will be charged with assault, after throwing what most of us will agree was a justifiable punch. None the less, Sam finds herself embroiled in an explosive situation, when Josh Hamilton begs her to help him discover his true identity, after he begins to suspect the family he thought he was born into, may have kidnapped him a baby and raised him as their own. This is a shocking allegation all on its own, but as it turns out, Josh Hamilton’s father is none other than the director of the FBI. Wowza!Things really get complicated, when Josh becomes the prime suspect in a shocking murder, prompting a closer look at the esteemed director’s family life. Meanwhile, the team suffers another horrific blow, which leaves Gonzo in worse shape than he already was, while Nick and Scotty come down with an acute case of the flu, which could mean Sam’s anniversary plans are in jeopardy. This is another explosive, high octane, super steamy, addition to this wildly popular romantic suspense series. There is a lot to analyze, so here goes:I was pleased with nearly all the developments in this chapter of the series, in regards to the recurring characters. Gonzo has some serious moments of doubt, but I loved the way the author addressed these issues in such a realistic fashion. Some real progress was made in other relationships and I was very relieved by how everything seems to be shaping up for our favorite couple and their close acquaintances and friends. The investigation into the alleged baby kidnapping, is full of mind blowing twists, with the most scandalous revelations I’ve encountered in… well, I don’t know when. Whew!Overall, fans of this series will most likely find this latest addition as addictive and satisfying as they have all the prior installments. Personally, I closed this book with a feeling of deep satisfaction, because the story ties up a few loose ends from the last two books, and gives our favorite people a nice little reprieve they all deserve. However, it does make me wonder what we might expect in the future. Hopefully, there will be wedding bells and the pitter patter of little feet!!This one gets 4 stars
