Jade Collins is a former doctor on death row awaiting execution for murder. What happened to do no harm, Jade? While awaiting her execution, Mark Brand visits her at San Quentin and offers her a chance to get out of jail. He is not offering a “get out of jail free” card as this is not a monopoly game but a dangerous undertaking. Wanting to live, she takes Mark up on his offer to assist him with a dangerous assignment. Both want to get out of something….
Mark was a doctor whose wife passed away and was given a second chance/second life by a powerful and dangerous man after his life fell apart. But it wasn’t quite the life Mark saw for himself and he soon learns that all things come at a cost. But he has orders to follow….
Can they trust each other? Will they survive this dangerous assignment? What happens when one develops feelings for the other?
The Woman From Death Row: A Jade Stryker Thriller: book 1is the first book in a new series. It is gripping, captivating, and kept me on my toes. Mark was instantly likeable but Jade not so much. She had a hard edge but eventually grew on me. I enjoyed learning more about her and her past as the book went on. This gave me more insight into her and her actions.
I enjoyed how the tension mounted. Can they trust each other? How will things turn out? These were the questions running through my mind as I read. I enjoyed the twists and turns and how the book ended. This left me wondering what the future had in store and what would happen next.
Gripping, well written and a great start to a new series.
