SYNOPSIS:


In this second book of the trilogy, D teams up with the vivacious Vic, aka, Victoria Lawson, Attorney at Law, to fill the great abyss left by his dream girl, Candice Parker, gone rogue. Raw confessionals between Vic and D, spilled in the wilds of Saskatchewan, exorcises their demons, and prepares them for the dangers that await their return to the States.

With bullets flying, D sends Vic away to keep her out of harm’s way, before tackling R.J. Standford, the Ponzi- scheming banker who has an enormous bounty on his head. Toss in Candice Parker’s extended ‘Family,’ the Gambino’s, who will also benefit from his immediate demise, and you’ve got yourself one heck of a mess!

To quote Oscar Wilde, “Every saint has a past...every sinner has a future,” prophetic words played out in the lives of these three misfits seeking to turn Redemption into Restoration with a little dose of Retribution thrown in.

Will D settle for Victoria, his kindred Spirit, whose moniker ‘all fur coat and no knickers’ no longer applies or will D’s unrequited feelings for Candice propel him back into her ongoing chaos?

One thing is for certain, there is bound to be hell to pay.

Like Momma always said, “When you play with fire, you’re gonna get burned.”






MY REVIEW:

Reinvention Retribution (Reinvention Series Book 2) by DJ Robb
Reading the first book will tell the whole story and this one has just glimpses into the first book so you’re not left out in the dark.
After reading the first book I became mesmerized. I finally figured out why. Just the way the story is told, some narrative, some subconscious thoughts really give you a feel for the characters.
This author reminds me SO much of Nelson DeMille and how his stories are told and evolve. Love the little remarks about 'points' .
This book starts out in Canada and Vic and D are regrouping after Candace has left in a rogue manner.
Chapters where Candace is in FL with her family and what's going on in her life while we are along for another ride with Vic and D.
Love all the nature, travel, romance, scenery as it's displayed in front of us, as if we can see it for ourselves. Love scenes and fun bantering throughout. All the new things on this extension of the journey, some new words for me to look up-love learning new words. Love how he gets others interested and their own way of helping the cause.
All the instances of paying it forward continue in this book. Easy to pay it forward and help this worthy charity cause for a needle exchange program in a mobile unit.
I like series books but I need to read new things and this one delivers that and more. A different side to the main characters and you learn new things about them, their past, and their future. 
Twists and turns throughout and you don’t see them coming. Adult situations.
Can’t wait for the next book.
