Book Review: Engaging Kennewick by Sarah J. Carr ( a JackRabbit7 prequel)

When I read the first prequel (pRevealing Hamilton), I was fascinated by Molly’s story. After reading the novel Revealing Hamilton, I knew I wanted to get their story. Engaging Kennewick gives us a little about Molly and Dane’s story, and it is GOOD!!!

I got caught by Sarah’s story in pRevealing Hamilton, and I know that when I sit down with one of Sarah’s books, I’m unable to close the book until I’ve read the last page. Engaging Kennewick isn’t any different from the other books – I was hooked from beginning to end, and left with more questions than answers. I really need to read Embracing Hamilton. *eyes kindle on the table* I just have to finish some things first…. I hate to rush with my reading.

Anyways, back to topic. Engaging Kennewick is a short and quick read, filled with old hurt, fear, panic, action and of course love. I loved being able to get to know Molly and Dane a little better. We also get to see Nick from a very different side than we usually know him. Which was quite the eye opener for me, and actually explains a lot regarding his behavior later in life.

So… If you’re new to the JackRabbit7 series – please start with the prequel pRevealing Hamilton. If you want to read this one afterwards, or the novel Revealing Hamilton – your choice. But do NOT miss out on this series, I’m telling you; it will make you laugh, cry, and give you goosebumps. I’m not even going to warn you about the nightmares. You can’t avoid them! As a reader, I'm in awe over Sarah's writing style, the easy way she tags and bags you - without realizing it, you're hooked deep into this series, and can't put it down. Now proceed on your own peril! :-P

 

About the book:

 

Molly Kennewick is involved in a long-distance relationship with a secretive IA employee named Dane Pascall. A prior breakup gone wrong with a resident bad boy leaves a bad taste in Molly’s mouth and also leaves her on edge. A significant amount of time has passed since Axel vanished from her life, but he’s been reminding her of his presence in peculiar ways. A weekend getaway is what Molly believes she needs to clear her head, but history is waiting with bated breath to repeat itself. Can Molly resolve her past and present before her future goes up in flames?

Book Review: Revelaing Hamiltonby Sarah J. Carr

Some time ago I read the Prequel to Revealing Hamilton… I was fascinated by the prequel and Sarah’s writing style, and wanted to see if she could capture me in her book as well. Did she ever. I was so not prepared for this book. In no way. (my review of pRevelaing Hamilton at Dangerous Romance)

Amelia is alone. Meaning, she has no family. The only one she remembers is her Grandfather, and that is something she would prefer to forget. But she has friends, and a boyfriend.  Not that I would call him that. Anyways…. Amelia works at the Ellie’s Diner. It’s boring, risky and hard work. The only thing keeping her up is her best friend Donovan, who also happens to work there. One day everything goes terribly wrong, and Amelia accidentally drops an entire plate of entrées on a customer, knocking him unconscious. As a result, Amelia quits (Lorenzo – the owner – behaves like a shit) and walks out of the Diner.

EVERYTHING snowballs from there. And I do mean everything. First her truck (Red) breaks down, then Connor (her boyfriend) don’t pick up the phone, her own phone dies, and she’s forced to walk home through a blizzard…. Only to find out exactly WHY Connor couldn’t pick up his damn phone. Heartbroken and pissed she leaves their apartment. But where to go, with little money, close to Christmas and a snowstorm rolling down upon her? In steps Max, a complete stranger. He offers her to stay with him for the night, which Amelia accepts after thinking on it. But it turns out it wasn’t so accidental that Max and Amelia bumped into each other. Max is the head of this division of The Insurance Agency, and he shows (and tells) Amelia what is coming for her. Her Grandfather isn’t dead, but has been banished to see her, until her 23^rd birthday. There’s a reason for that. Something that Amelia has been trying very hard to forget. And with only measly seven days left, she will have to come to terms with that her entire life has been a made-up lie. In the end, who can she really trust?!

Amelia is a sweet person. She is not the first to cry foul, and it takes a lot before she loses faith in a person. She’s a bit naïve regarding her boyfriend.. Okay, okay, a LOT naïve. But that is part of her charm. On the other hand… I didn’t see the story behind her boyfriend coming. It hit me like a Mack truck straight in my face. It doesn’t excuse him in my eyes, but I understood a bit more about his actions.

Maurice Benedict – Amelia’s grandfather is… Oh boy. He reminds me of a historical person who did a hell lot of damage (when you read the story, you might agree). He’s brilliant in a way, but he sure uses it wrong. On all accounts. He’s the kind of person you really don’t want to meet… Not even in a brightly lit room during day time. With tons of people there too. But he sure has a way to trick people into doing his dirty work. His net isn’t small in any way. It spreads out and ensnares a whole lot more people than anticipated.   

As I said… I was so not prepared for this story. Revealing Hamilton was twisted, mind-boggling, fascinating, action packed, emotional, grip your seat “what’s going to happen now”, tear inducing and absolutely freaking amazing to read.  Just when I thought “Aaahh, now I get it” – Sarah (or her muse) laughs evilly and tosses something new into the mix, confusing you, claiming your attention and makes you want to rip your hair out. My nails have never been this short. Twist after twist, secret after secret, Revealing Hamilton will keep you glued. I loved every second of it, and I immediately bought Embracing Hamilton. I so do not want to miss anything!

BTW: Sarah, you owe me a couple of nights sleep. :-P
