Review
Editorial Reviews for LONDON CALLING by Veronica Forand
"Page after page is a real action-packed edge-of-the-seat suspense romance novel I seriously couldn't put it down!" -Sheena M., NetGalley
"I thoroughly enjoyed the fast paced action in this novel and loved the push/pull between Emma and Macknight. I felt invested in the characters, especially Emma's, as the small town girl suddenly pulled into something she didn't understand. When paired with Macknight, an engaging "alphahole", the sparks fly." -Linda Q., Goodreads
"London Calling was a suspenseful and riveting story reminiscent of a Mission Impossible type movie. It was fast-paced, intense and full of action sequences." -Ratula R., NetGalley
"This is a can't miss action adventure story that readers will love." -Heidi W., Goodreads
"LONDON CALLING captured my attention from the get-go with a Mission Impossible infused scene. The author is a master storyteller with romantic suspense scenes. The book's plot twists and turns made my brain blow a fuse trying to figure out how this story would end. If you like sexy guys, smart women, and a plot-driven story keeping you up late at night then this book is definitely for you. Highly recommend." -Victroia B., Goodreads
