World on Fire series by Lincoln Cole. I have only read the first one in the series and I love it. It has violence, action and mystery!

I highly recommend Raven's Peak. It starts off slow at first but then the twists and turns start happening. Abigail and Haatim have to fight a powerful demon and save the world from evil. I must warn you though, it is very discussing in some spots. But it is still a great read. Very scary.

I Am Pilgrim by Terry Hayes is an excellent thriller. The plot involves a former intelligence offer who gets entwined in a threat posed by an Afghan fighter who plans to reverse engineer a virus that could wipe out global humanity.

On What Grounds is the first book in the series a coffeehouse mystery written by Cleo Coyle, a pen name for Alice Alfonsi. This book has a story line with twist and turns that are definitely a 'keep you on your toes' page-turner.

When a death at a coffee shop happens that looks like just an accident, also has three suspects with motives to want to kill, and a coffee shop co-owner who will stop at nothing to find out who the killer is not only for justice, but to save the coffee shop, things get a little chaotic.

By far one of my favorite crime/mystery books I have read. Definitely recommend!

The Last Time I Lied by Riley Sager was so incredibly good!

Emma Davis returns to her childhood camp when it reopens after being closed for 15 years because of a tragedy. The last time she was at Camp Nightingale, three of her friends left their cabin and vanished into the darkness. Emma returns to figure out what happened all those years ago. The suspense will keep you hooked until the very end!

I have read so many books by Tami Hoag. The first book i read was Dark Horse and that got me hooked. I love her writting and how discriptive she is in her writtings. Im working on reading series from the begining. I have recently finished Deeper Than The Dead. Im curremtly reading Secrets to the Grave. I have got my son hooked on this author as well. So when i finish a series then i give him the books to read.

The Mediator Series. If your into suspense, action and love story this book is perfect for you.

Mediator is composed of 6 novels and is a perfect genre for teenagers and also for the young at heart. The protagonist Susannah has the ability to see ghost and it so happened that she met Hector de Silva at the house she recently moved in.

The problem is that she was in love with a nineteenth-century ghost...

If you like a really creepy, very suspenseful psycho thriller, I suggest The Butterfly Garden by Dot Hutchison. I believe it's free on Kindle Unlimited currently. The pace builds throughout the book, and I found myself struggling to go to sleep before finishing the last page. I don't want to give too much away, but a psychopath kidnaps several women and this is the story told by one of the survivors. Amazing!
