On His Six Away From Keyboard Book 3 edition by Patricia Eddy Romance eBooks

I read an ARC of this book and have patiently waited until I could post it on Amazon.

I made no secret that Ryker captivated my imagination in the first two books that he appeared in - Breaking His Code and In Her Sights. He was that guy who was mentally wounded so badly that talking to strangers was nearly impossible but talking to people he knew was almost as bad. He would reveal himself to no one, because he thought he wasn't someone that anyone would want to know. I knew this from reading those first two books. So I waited....and waited...somewhat patiently, while Patricia Eddy got around to writing his story. And she did NOT in any way, shape, or form disappoint me.

This story is about Ryker becoming human again and much much more. Being one of two men who ever survived Hell (a maze of caves and cells deep underneath the mountains of Afghanistan), to say that Ryker was wounded is like saying a raw lemon isn't sweet. An understatement if there ever was one. Ryker had had to rely on everything inside him to get out of Hell and get back to rescue his fellow soldier, Dax. Unfortunately, for all those around him, thanks to the months he spent in Hell, Ryker doesn't know how to care or love his friends. In fact, he doesn't think he has any friends. He's plagued with nightmares of the torture he endured and believes that he's hurt everything and everyone he's ever cared about. He believes Dax hates him because he, too, was punished severely while in Hell. This is the story of how Ryker was proven wrong.

The story is also about a red-headed girl named Wren. She's a hacker extraordinaire. And she's employed by Dax (remember him, the other guy to survive Hell). They meet by accident, she and Ryker, and neither are the same after that. I can't tell you too much about Wren except to say I identified with her panic and anxiety attacks and was taken by the blunt honesty the author used in describing her. But since I have a rule about spoilers, that's as far into the story as I will go. The rest of this review will be about Patricia D. Eddy and why I think she's worth a read, no matter what genre she's writing in.

This book is a masterpiece of pacing. If I were teaching a class on how to build the arc of a story correctly, pace it appropriately, balance the narrative with the dialogue, and create an almost-bottomless depth in its characters, this would be the only textbook I would need. Because both Ryker and Wren hold so much in their head, their actions and thoughts are slower in the first half to two-thirds of the book. And Ms. Eddy matched their thought processes with the pace she set for the narrative. It was slow, it built as the characters were built and as the action spun up. It built as the characters adapted themselves to the situations they found themselves in. And at no time reading this book did I feel the need to read ahead in boredom or stop reading because the pacing was too fast, or slow. Believe me, in most books I read, the pace doesn't match the characters or the plot line. This book read perfectly. Just the kind of book you hope to pick up every single time you purchase one.

The characters in action - that's where she grabbed me and held on. I didn't expect the action/adventure that was in this book, but I should have remembered the background of the characters of the other Eddy books in this series. And when they showed up in this book, I shouldn't have had a doubt that this "$hit's gonna get interesting". And no that isn't a quote from this book, that's a quote from a man who is currently serving in the Middle East, and it SO fits this book.

And now to the author's talent, because this review would not be complete unless I told you what I thought of her craft. There are a handful of authors in this world that I would like to meet - and they aren't the ones you would think. I'm not really interested in meeting the bestsellers of hardcover fame. I'm interested in meeting the indie authors who put everything they are into each book. They become best friends with their characters while they write, and if they are really good at their craft, so do I. Ms. Eddy is one of those authors. They aren't just characters in her books. When I read what she's written, I know they are her creations. In the case of this book, I caught myself tearing up twice while reading about Ryker and it was in places where I would have least suspected. I cried when he didn't have a clue why his friend Dax was angry at him and again when he finally realized that he could learn how to care and how to love. That kind of emotion - endearing, deep, heartfelt, and true, is hard to achieve. Ms. Eddy aced it. Keep in mind that it is NOT difficult to write a book that is full of melancholy and is sweet enough to rot your teeth and make you cry. This book isn't sweet. In fact, if someone calls this book sweet, I'll call a shrink, cause they need their head examined. This book is raw emotions and it painted pictures in my mind as I read, pictures that are still with me, even though I finished the book days ago. Note to the author: Your characters are so very rich, but most importantly, they complement their friends and family, just like in real life. Kudos to you. Looking forward to your next book. You and your books are keepers.

On His Six Away From Keyboard Book 3 edition by Patricia Eddy Romance eBooks Reviews

## NO. Just no. I'm surprised at all the great reviews. I loved the premise of the story, and the first half wasn't too awful (hence the extra star). But then it went down hill. Way down. The whole Russian mob plot dragged on and on. I was bored out of my mind. And worse were the ridiculously stupid decisions the heroine made. She's kidnapped, restrained, drugged, tortured, and beaten. Repeatedly. Why? Because she wouldn't listen. And then a couple of chapters later she does it AGAIN. In addition she kept popping pills for her anxiety and panic attacks, over and over. Why would anyone take her along on a mission against the Russian mob? Too bad, this had potential. However I'm sorry to say this was a big waste of time.
Review by Christine Stokes
First time reader of Ms Eddy and certainly will not be my last. I am a big fan of military romantic/suspense/thriller
genre.
The story line and writing were superb with amazing character development. The book was very engaging,
heart pounding, reeling with emotions that I had a hard time putting it down.
Ryker was in special forces and during his mission he was captured, severely tortured which left him with scars both
emotional and physical, it was the longest fifteen months being in the hell hole along with his friend Dan and other
team members. PTSD has affected him greatly that he couldn't see past it. Working in his company is what keeps
him sane. He lost touch with Dan cause he couldn't face him but decided to make amends.
Upon entering Dan's office he ran into Wren who is a hacker working for Dan. Wren suffers anxiety and the
constant worry of her brother's disappearance. Until one day, his body was found which was an apparent overdose.
Wren did not believe it as her brother was clean and had a new life. She stumbled upon a message from her brother
and the need to follow through was declined by Dan. Ryker believed her and set out to help her shut down the
biggest drug and trafficking ring.
While doing that, feelings developed between Ryker and Wren and their chemistry was steamy.
Ryker will do everything to keep Wren safe and rescue her brother's friends who helped him escaped.
I can't wait to read Dan's story but in the mean time I will read the first two books of this series.
I received a free copy of this book and chose to voluntarily leave a review.
As a fan of Eddy and this particular series I have been not so patiently waiting for this book. But, oh my, wait the wait worth it. This book met and shattered every single expectation I had and more. Ryker is so tortured and broken, in every sense of the those words, physically, mentally, and soul deep. Wren is delightfully quirky and much stronger than she knows. Her struggle through anxiety and haunts from the past have molded her into what I can only describe as fragile on the outside but strong as steel on the inside. Together they fill in the gaps, holes, and previously impenetrable spaces in the other and finally finding the safe space where they can finally show who they are. Yes, broken is beautiful because we all are in some ways even if less extreme than our beloved family in this series. The rebuilding and recognizing of self which allows for the acceptance of the other is perfect. I love how Eddy creates characters that do not depend on the other to fix them but to allow the love and strength the other gives as a catapult to delve into the often painful struggle of facing ones own demons. These two have plenty of demons, apart and together, but together they show the strength that they can overcome. Eddy’s writing and stories show the best of the human spirit to love and overcome even during the hardest and grittiest of life’s experiences and that is real but yet poetically beautiful at once. I cannot recommend this book and all of Eddy’s books enough. Her writing is clean and concise and storytelling such that you lose yourself into worlds of pain, redemption, and love.
