First Thought when Finished:Personal Target by Kay Thomas had me wishing I had started at book 1 and that book 3 was already out. It was that good!

Overall Thoughts: The action was intense! I really like when a RS is heavy on the suspense and action so this was right up my alley. Also I am partial to stories about rescue surrounding human trafficking (aka my love of the LCR series by Christy Reece). It is a global issue so the locals also were interesting (Africa, Mexico). The romance was strong and with their history easy enough to fall in love with them. My only character complaint was the middle part of the story Jennifer was edging that TSTL line and Nick was pent up angry man. They both redeemed themselves though and that is all that matters. I will be picking up book 1 and counting down to book 3!

Audio Thoughts:

Narrated By P.J. Ochlan / Length: 8 hrs and 47 mins


Holy number of accents! P.J. did a great job considering the number of accents in this story (Mexico, African, Southern) and still managed to keep the main characters unique. His male characters were stronger than his females but didn't take me long to warm up to those. I would listen to his narration again.

50%: #Listening Oh Thanks God she realized (hopefully) that she really was being a TSTL leading lady. Though they do need to talk!"

Personal Target

I really enjoyed the story line. It was fast paced & tied up some of the continuing story from previous book. The narrator’s performance was better but that may have been not having to produce a southern accent throughout this reading.

Can’t wait to read the next in series!

Loved this as much as last in series. Kay Thomas, I hope you are planning a new series soon! My apologies to the performer, PJ Ochlan for my book 1 review on speaking southern. You are an outstanding performer. I didn’t realize you are the voice for all characters in the book. I usually do not purchase audio books read by one person who is performing both male and female characters. Both you and Kay Thomas have a new fan!

The storyline is good.

I like the lead male character, but that female, is stupid, a coward, and just doesn't seem nice. She's so busy running from Nick that she's blind to the things that are happening around her. Just dense. So far her personality is not likable and I'm mid-way through the book. The narration is well done. This review would have been 5 stars, if not for that female character.
