Landing my dream job has me eagerly looking toward the future. But when I see Nash Garrison after six long years, my world is thrown completely off its axis.

He was my only friend and confidant during the worst days of my life, and I fell hopelessly in love with him. No eighteen year old girl could resist his protective nature and charming grin. I was no exception.

Now, together, we’re about to bring down the man responsible for my parents’ deaths. Revenge has been the driving force fueling every decision I’ve ever made - except for Nash.

What is it about him that sends the most rational parts of my brain into a tailspin? And how do I balance on the edge of retribution without tumbling into heartbreak once more?

This is a full length, romantic suspense standalone.

My review is willingly shared with Endlessly Reading book blog.

This book is one I have been anticipating for weeks for and I wasn't disappointed. This is a suspense filled thrill ride with a dash of romance tossed in the mix. Jacob Chance has written a page turner with this one, I was turning the page to find out what happens next. I have dubbed Nash as my #DirtyPrinceCharming, he's the older man Zoe finds herself attracted to. The only thing I can say is I wish there had been a bit more action, although there is plenty enough to get your heart pounding and sitting on the edge of your seat. This is a book I highly recommend to pick up.

This is the first book I have read by author Jacob Chance. The premise of the story is a good one and the action starts right from the very beginning. Although the writing is solid, the story just falls flat for me. There is zero pizzazz. Nothing to make you eager to see what happens next. The main characters Zoe and Nash are both very likeable but have no chemistry. I hoped things might improve in the second part of the book but unfortunately that was not the case. If the author had concentrated on building the action of the story instead of constantly having Nash and Zoe mooning for each other, it would have been a great book. Instead, I found it lacklustre and at times very boring.

Omg this was a totally different book from all of Jacob's previous work. But it is just as amazing as the rest. This book is full of mystery, twists, romance and hot sex scenes. Nash is such an alpha. Which falls in line with all of Jacob's other books. This book is such an incredible story and I really love how Jacob can write any style and succeed beautifully.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Second Chance at Love Admist Turmoil
Reviewed in Canada on December 30, 2020
This is book one of "The Edge" series; a story of a second chance at love for Zoe Thomas and Nash Garrison. Eighteen-year old Zoe rushes home after her last day at high school, only to be kidnapped and taken to a house where she watches her parents get killed. She is placed in a safe house, where she meets Nash, an FBI agent, who becomes one of her minders. They fall in love but Nash will not act upon it because he is 10 years older and does not want to compromise his position with the FBI. Six years pass before Zoe, now a FBI agent, sees Nash again. He is so willing to take the step forward to begin a relationship with Zoe but she hesitates, because she doesn’t want all the old feeling to return. Working together to find the men responsible for her parent’s death is one thing, but can Zoe hold back her love for Nash when he is so ready for her?

I love Jacob Chance’s writing. He is especially skillful at weaving descriptive and expressive words that not only tell a story; they make one think. EG: “You need to enjoy the journey, (of life), that’s were all the magic happens.” And as I continue with the story, I am looking for that magic between Nash and Zoe. He entwines those magical words that burst out and engulf us and make us believe in the love and enchantment between these two characters.

In an interview, the author once said that he often has “hidden secrets”, things that he has shared with his readers. For example, like Nash, the author loves pizza, milk chocolate, vanilla ice cream and the New England Patriots. There might be more, but I still do not know the author that well, even after reading all of his books.

This is a true love story told with words that are passionate and caring yet there is suspense and drama woven in. If you like your romance with some tense and anxious moments, then I recommend you read this book, and all his others too.

One of the things I love about Jacob Chance's books is that is not the typical love story.
You found the romance of course but to deliver it with a great story behind, only him. Edge of retribution is not only for those who like a HEA, you will get action, friendship, a thriller.
Each character with a strong personality that shine by their own.
Edge of Retribution is a must to read.

This Book Is a Must Read

I first read Jacob Chance in July 2016 with his Debut book Quake. I have followed his work since that point and love each time he releases a new book. His writing with each book just keeps getting better and better and his characters and Storylines and so enjoyable and quite often entertaining.

Edge Of Retribution is Brilliant, it is a glimpse into a different side of Jacob Chance’s writing and not what you would traditionally expect. Having said that though I can’t wait to read more Suspense from him, he can quite easily slip between Hey the 2 genres and give you Sports Rom Coms that will have you in hysterics and at the same time deliver an Action Packed Suspense that will have you addicted. That’s exactly what EOR is, it will have you gripping every page to get more, it will quite often have you on the edge of your seat and heart in your throat.

The Book follows the story of Nash Garrison (Wait did I mention Jacob knows how to make you fall for his leading men? No, well he nails it every time.) Nash is an FBI agent assigned to Serve & Protect his latest case Zoe Thomas (Who just happens to be a very headstrong and determined teenager and Daughter of 2 well respected FBI agents) the angst and the fight this book has, has kept me riveted until the last page , I loved the storyline, the leads and sub characters and I LOVED the twists.

I’m not going into detail of the story other than to say this, it is absolutely not what you would expect, it is Suspense at its absolute damn finest. It was addictive to the point that when I had to stop reading for work I couldn’t stop thinking about it. There were parts I didn’t see coming until they hit me in the face and I remember thinking #NailedIt.
I cannot recommend this book enough, you will devour it.

*Reviewing for ROCK HARD ROMANCE*

Right from the start of this story,I was hooked!
18 year old Zoe,the daughter of two FBI Agents,is witness to her parents murder,manages to escape before facing the same fate,and as a result is put into a safe house,with agents protecting her until the trial where she is to testify.One of the Agents is Nash Garrison,10 years her senior,as the days in each other's company go on,a mutual attraction is there,with lines getting slightly blurred yet not going too far...Fast forward to 6 years later,with Zoe (24) having joined the FBI ,which was her dream even before losing her parents,and a focus on bringing down the one responsible for her parents death is her ultimate goal.
She comes into contact with Nash again,and even with keeping the professional image,those feelings from years ago is still there on both sides.
Now I won't go into anymore detail as to all that happens,but this is more than a simple second chance romance story...there are other elements which add some suspense,action packed ride,especially towards the end,and a few twists added along with a OMG I DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING! moment.

Jacob has created yet another well written,with great attention to detail,telling in DUAL POV story,that as I said to start with got me hooked from the beginning...I LOVED IT!

5.0 out of 5 stars Romantic suspense, an older man, and a need for retribution
Reviewed in Australia on May 10, 2018

Jacob Chance is an author who I found recently and whose books I have absolutely loved, and Edge of Retribution is no different. Despite the fact that this is a complete 180 from his two previous sports-based, romantic comedies, Jacob manages to pull off a fantastic story with a gripping plot line and two characters I really enjoyed.

Zoe and Nash share a history because he was involved in her protection after the brutal deaths of her parents (and despite knowing it was coming having read the first chapter in Jacob's Facebook group I was still stunned by it all!!) and the attraction between them is palpable. But with Zoe only 18 and Nash in a position of power, it's not the right time. Fast forward six years and a few things have changed. Zoe and Nash are now colleagues, Zoe is old enough to want retribution for the horrible events that threw her entire life off its axis and Nash is ready to finally admit that perhaps Zoe is the woman he has been waiting for all along.

Zoe and Nash were both truly likeable characters and even though Zoe went through an absolutely traumatic event, I felt she was portrayed realistically and with respect. And I appreciated Nash's reasons for not acting on his attraction to Zoe when she was 18 and I was so glad that when they find each other again that he is the one pursuing her!! I'm always a fan of the strong alpha male who isn't afraid to go after the woman he wants.

My only real criticism comes from the slow middle section. I loved loved loved Part I and could barely put the book down. But once we skipped forward 6 years and Part II began, I just found it all to be little slow going - and while I enjoyed Nash and Zoe reconnecting and the romance playing out, I just felt that the main plot about trying to get retribution for Zoe's parents' killer was pushed aside for a bit. The last few chapters had be turning pages as quick as I could as I wondered how it would all play out - and there were some twists, turns and surprises I didn't see coming - and the ending was more than satisfying.

I also want to mention the fabulous secondary characters - I loved Karyn and I am desperately hoping that Georgia and Belfast get a story of their own (even a novella...) because there is something there that I'd love to read more about!!

This is an incredibly gripping story that I definitely recommend!!
