Wow! I loved this book! The author has long been a favorite of mine, but this is the first book in a new series and I wasn't sure what to expect. Suffice it to say, no matter what you're expecting, it will be different and so very much better. A group of men have been declared dead and then returned to the living as part of a very special group of operators that step in when no one else can or should step in. They have complex missions in which the weight of the world rests on their shoulders. Their cover is as employees of a funeral home. Five men to assist one funeral director that might have two funerals a month in a very small town....a town so small that it has a tiny population and everyone knows everyone else's business...a town so small that there is a bet on when (or if) the funeral director will take one of the men for a tumble. How hard could that be to keep a secret? This is fast paced romantic suspense that fans of the genre will love. I cared about the characters and felt invested in their story. Once again, the author has demonstrated that she is a master at her craft. For those who have not yet discovered her, snag this one as quickly as possible, you'll be glad you did.

The Darkest Corner by Liliana Hart is one of those WOW moment books, were you can't get the characters or plot out of your head. Book 1 in a new series, "Gravediggers", which promises to be an outstanding series. If you enjoy Romantic Suspense, you don't wish to miss "The Darkest Corner" by Liliana Hart. The "Gravediggers" series will feature an "elite group of mysterious men who might be dead to the world, but are also tasked with saving it and no one can ever know. "Set in Last Stop, Texas. In this first book, "The Darkest Corner", Deacon Tucker is stripped of all honor as a black ops agent, now one of the dead men walking, he's tasked with saving the world or die trying, he's also the leader of this elite group of men, known as the gravediggers. Tess Sherman is the only mortician in this small town, and have skills of her own, which Deacon and his group could use. Deacon is a Funeral Home assistant to Tess, on a mission.... to stop a terrorist's fatal attack, known as The Day of Destiny. Deacon and Tess was a great couple, their witty banter was great, and they relationship was fantastic. Could love be in the air? Danger, secrets, terrorists, romance, suspense, intrigue and action packed from the first page to the last. I was totally intrigued from the first page, glued to the pages as Tess and Deacon's story unfolded, as well as the rest of this amazing story. If you're looking for a fast paced, action packed thrill ride, pick up "The Darkest Corner". Ms. Hart has much to offer readers in this masterfully written tale of danger and love. Highly recommended! A must read for sure! I can't wait to read Book 2. I received a complimentary copy. All opinions are my own. Rating: 4.5 Heat rating: Mild Reviewed by: AprilR
