Book Review- Break IN (An Ivy Nash Thriller, Book 4)
[scroll-box]
Even when someone is cloaked by a charming smile and friendly nature, Ivy Nash knows the scent of a predator. Half of her life has been filled with one horrific event after another. Which is why she started ECHO, dedicating her life to rid the world of those who prey on children.
But despite all of her life experiences, nothing can prepare her for the “fun house.” A terror unlike any other. And that’s when she must decide if clinging to life is worth the hell that she will pay.

MY THOUGHTS
Well, since a quote from one of my previous reviews in the series is featured above, no pressure to say something amazing, right?
Once again, I love this next book in the Ivy Nash series by John Mefford. As always, the author kept me guessing. I did not even guess that a certain person was one of the “bad guys” until moments before it happened and I thought, “No way!” I am amazed at all the crazy things that Ivy has gone through. In the midst of her helping out kids, she ALWAYS finds herself in some kind of trouble. You would think she might try to live more cautiously, considering how many times she has been kidnapped, but that is just not her nature. Her past always comes back to haunt her, but she does not let that break her will and her character.
I also loved that in the this book, there is more character development for Christina and even for Stan. I’m taking a guess that there will be more action involving Christina in the next book. And oh yes, there is a next book and I will be reading it.
As always, it is not completely necessary to have read the other books in the series, but I would highly recommend it! Great job once again, Mr. Mefford!
Q&A with author John W. Mefford:
Q: What do the Ivy Nash Thrillers have to do with the Redemption Thriller Series?
JWM: The Ivy Nash Thrillers comprise the second sub-series in the Redemption Thriller Series. The Alex Troutt Thrillers are the first sub-series. While I’ll eventually write a series that connects the major characters and plots from all the sub-series, you don’t have to read the AT books prior to the IN books. But I have to say, the AT thrillers are darn good.
Q: So you’re saying you don’t have to read the Alex Troutt Thrillers before the Ivy Nash Thrillers?
JWM: Nope. While a few of the characters might occasionally overlap between the series, they can be read as stand-alone. And then I’ll wrap everything up in a final set of six novels that connects all of the main characters and stories from each sub-series. If you haven’t read any of the Alex Troutt thrillers yet, you can try out the first three at a pretty nice discount. Just search for Alex Troutt Box Set.
Q: Can you give some insight into how Ivy Nash might connect to Alex Troutt down the line?
JWM: Sure…and then I’ll send over a hit squad. Seriously, I’ll be sprinkling in a few clues along the way for those who pay close attention to the details, but it will all come together in that final six novels of the Redemption Thriller Series. And it will be explosive and gut-wrenching at the same time.
Q: How many different sub-series are you planning to have in the Redemption Thriller Series?
JWM: Right now, I see four sub-series in the Redemption Thriller Series, with six novels in each. It’s the most challenging and fulfilling creative endeavor I’ve undertaken. I hope you enjoy the journey.
