Anne Patrick

About

Anne Patrick, known for her ‘Sweet’ Edge of Your Seat Romantic Suspense, has penned more than a dozen novels. Her works have garnered four and five star reviews and she’s received or been nominated for several awards. Her heroines are usually strong willed, witty, and often very opinionated…combinations that usually land them in situations where death seems imminent. Anne has an alter ego by the name of Kinzie Monroe, who writes Inspirational Romance. Anne, you might say, is the dark side of Kinzie. Anne’s books may be darker in subject matter, but they all carry messages of hope and faith.  When she's not killing off people or falling in love with dashing heroes, you can find her surfing the web.  Born and raised in Oklahoma, she now makes her home in Kansas.

Williams gave it 5 stars <strong>Great suspense! Great Style!<span>  </span>“</strong>This is a book that people will enjoy even if they don't typically read Inspirational fiction. The elements of suspense, romance and faith intertwine effortlessly....It's clear that Ms. Patrick took great care in her research of personality and profession for both Sadie and Quinn. Each character was unique, likable and believable. Together they complimented each other quite well...I find myself applauding Ms. Patrick on her ability to weave elements together in perfect balance, and with a twist as well. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;color:#000000;font-size:12pt;">Romantic Reader (metime) gave it 5 stars <strong>One you won’t want to miss!!!</strong> “</span><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;color:#000000;font-size:12pt;">Anne Patrick has done it again! I loved this story! Fire and Ash is the perfect blend of mystery, suspense and romance. The chemistry of all the characters flowed so naturally and was so believable you felt by the end of the story that they were your very close friends. One thing I really appreciate about Anne's work is she writes about real people who have real problems. She shows you how they struggle with issues in their life but she also shows you how the Lord places certain people in your life at certain times for a certain purpose. I also like how Anne never really allows you to know who did it until the end. I always think I know the answer but then another clue pops up and it leads to another suspect. She always keeps you guessing. I highly recommend Fire and Ash! Great job Anne!!”</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;color:#000000;font-size:12pt;">D.Thorne gave it 5 stars <strong>Sweet, Fascinating Entertainment! </strong>“I really enjoyed this novel and thought it was the best of Anne Patrick's work that I've read yet. The characters are in-depth, the setting familiar and homey, the arson investigation interesting and the romance sweet. This is a great read for a car trip or long afternoon. I pretty much read it in one day. Great characters and storyline. Very entertaining.”</span><br /><br /><strong>AbbyZ@<a href="http://search.barnesandnoble.com/books/e/9781936000944/?itm=2"><font color="#800080">Barnes &amp; Noble</font></a> gave it 5 stars Outstanding &amp; Original</strong> -  &quot;Ms Patrick has done it again!!! I was completely blown away by this book. It's original, well-written, with the perfect blend of romance and suspense. Sadie and Quinn are the perfect characters! I loved getting to know them and Sadie's family, the McGregor's. Not only will Fire and Ash keep you on the edge of your seat, it is guaranteed to tug at your heart strings. Ms Patrick's has a unique writing style that I absolutely love! She is able to draw you in with characters that are well developed, with plot lines that are sure to keep you turning the pages, and ending that will undoubtedly drive you to pick up more of her books.&quot;<br /><br /><strong>Sherry at GoodReads gave it 4 Stars</strong> - &quot;<span style="font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;font-size:12pt;"><font color="#000000">In her acknowledgements Anne Patrick names the fire investigator who helped her with her research. I mention this because the seamless presentation of Anne Patrick's research into her story is awesome. This is a hard-hitting and emotional read that has the reader right beside the author's characters. <span> </span>There is no part of the story that is unbelievable. And every character plays an integral part in the tale. The suspense builds exponentially with every character introduced and she offers up plenty of suspects. The balance of suspense and emotion ensures the reader will have a hard time putting this book down. <span> </span>It is a keeper for my shelf.&quot;<br /><span></span><br /><font size="+0"><strong><a href="http://www.erotichorizon.com/2010/10/review-fire-and-ash-anne-patrick.html"><font color="#000000">E.H. on Books &amp; More:</font></a></strong>Ms. Patrick's work <strong>FIRE AND ASH</strong> was a smashing read, as a reader who love the skulduggery – <strong>FIRE AND ASH </strong>more than met my expectations and as a reader who love the finer details in a book, I thought Ms .Patrick was spot on with details about the world of a fire investigator  – her investment in her research could be seen and that more than anything else made this book a winner for me.</font><br /></font></span></p>
