What Readers are Saying about The Wild Life:

Brianna Morris has found herself in the mix of a crime situation she would have preferred never to be in. The Southern Cuban Mafia has appeared in her life and they intend to get whatever information they can for what she might know about someone who is dear to her but known to get involved in situations that can be deadly for whoever is involved. This book is thrilling!

The Wild Life by Stacy-Deanne is almost three hundred pages of crime fiction at its best. I started reading at 5 p.m. and did not stop until midnight when I read the last, exciting page. Ms. Deanne has upped her already stellar write game. If you are not already a fan of her work (gasp) it is time to get on board.

She masterfully weaves a tale of mystery in this clever, quick-paced, tension-filled, nail biting, suspenseful novel. I was on the very edge of my seat from the first word until the climatic end. Hold on tight, she’s sure to take you on a thrilling ride. "

– Niyah Moore, author of Major Jazz

"Stacy Deanne has created some unforgettable characters that aren't always what they seem. The Wild Life takes readers on a roller coaster ride of suspense and emotions."

REVIEW:

The Season of Sin by Stacy-Deanne will from the title have you thinking it is one thing but from the first words, you know it is something else again.

From the first pages I was drawn into the story and wanted to know what else was going to happen. The story started with Officer Brianna Morris recovering from an assault and discovering, Nadia, her friend has been murdered, probably by the person who assaulted her.

However, before we can get caught up in the 'who-doneit' we are intrigued by the relationship between Brianna and another officer, Steven. Immediately, you see there is history between them, but it doesn't stop the author from adding other characters to their mix. I loved the favors of the characters and the diversity. I also found the mystery and crime elements intriguing.

What I loved most was how the story was fully fleshed out and could be, mystery, romance or simply good storytelling. The crime felt real as did the romance and the 'sin' as indicated in the title. I recommend The Season of Sin to those who love good books.

5 stars
