Rave Reviews Book Club Book & Blog Party #RRBC

Block Party

Welcome to my post which is coming to you from Post Aransas Texas and is only one of the 65+ posts on this year’s Rave Reviews Book Club Book & Blog Party. You can go here to see the complete lineup.

Today if you will leave a comment on this post you will be eligible to win:

A Ten Dollar Gift Card from Amazon

There will be one gift card given away, but you need to comment to be entered in the drawing. The winner will be announced tomorrow.

I would like to give you a little information about my Books.

The first book in the John J. Cannon Trilogy is My GRL

My GRL

Blurb: John J. Cannon successful San Francisco lawyer takes a leave of absence from the firm and buys a boat he names My GRL. He is unaware that his newly purchased boat had already been targeted by a terrorist group. John’s first inkling of a problem is when he wakes up in the hospital where he learns he was found unconscious next to the dead body of the attractive young woman who sold him the boat in the first place. John now stands between the terrorists and the success of their mission.

The Second book is titled His Revenge 

His Revenge front final

Blurb: America loves John Cannon, its newest hero, and the President wants to present him with the highest civilian medal for bravery for saving the Annapolis midshipman from a terrorist plot to destroy them. While in Washington for the award ceremony, John unwillingly becomes an accomplice in another plan by the same group to attack the credibility of the US President and the stability of the worldwide oil market. There is no way out as John either becomes a traitor to America or causes thousands of innocent people to die if he refuses.

Coming in September is the third book in the Trilogy, Our Justice

Our Justice

Blurb: The terrorist leader and financier Matt Jacobs has figured out a plan to eliminate the President. He is relying on John Cannon’s stature as a hero to help him carry it off. John finds himself walking the fine line of pretending to help Matt while trying to figure out a countermeasure to the plan. The third book in the John J. Cannon Trilogy brings together two strong wills for a showdown. The question to be answered is who will feel the satisfaction that the achievement of justice delivers? John, Matt or neither.

  13. If you haven’t discovered ‘ordinary Joe’ hero John Cannon yet, I URGE you to do so! 😀 John H knows that I’m not a natural thriller fan, but I do love his series and it’s mostly to do with the first person, self-deprecating style and the coffee and sartorial fixation of Mr. Cannon – he’s a wonderfully inviting character. I have an ARC of Our Justice waiting for me to gobble up while I’m on vacation next week – I can’t wait to find out the last instalment of this exciting series 🙂

    John – I found the margaritas! Have a fantastic party today! 😉
