The One You Fear: Emma Holden Suspense Mystery Trilogy: Book Two (Emma Holden Trilogy 2)

The One You Fear

While I didn't know what was going on and being inside the bad guys head in book 1 kept me guessing for quite a while it didn't really add something to the story this time. I've got a suspicion in which direction the author wanted the reader to guess but, as I said, this didn't work for me. Another aspect that annoyed me a little if the constant need of the main characters to take every action in their own hands.

Maybe I'm a little coward and trust law enforcement a little too much but I can't wrap my head around their actions. I remember sometimes being annoyed by the main character, Emma, as I do not always understand her actions.

Definitely, had those moments in book 2 but I got used to it. She won't turn into my next favorite character but I can stand her enough to enjoy reading about her. Some of the minor characters were insufferable at times talking about Emma's father here but since I don't believe in loving every character within a story I'm pretty much okay with it.

The last couple of pages held a plot twist that I hadn't seen coming despite being really quick to guess when it came to the rest of the story. There was more like a lingering feeling of something is wrong here but I couldn't pinpoint it. In the end, I believe the series is worth my while and I look forward to reading book 3.

Aug 13, R. It is a novella and for that reason took only a short time to read. I liked that the events picked up from the last book and take place four weeks later. It is a mystery instead of a thriller like the first one. Emma is on vacation and thinks she sees the stalker that she thought had been killed in the first book.

Then she receives flowers from the "stalker".

What if the body hadn't really been the stalker and he was still out there and wanting to hurt her? Jan 06, Amanda Osborne rated it liked it. It was pretty good, didn't love it just like the first but it kept me pretty interested and kept me thinking. I need to stop0 reading series where all the books aren't out though, I think I do this with almost every series I start reading For all the hype, I expected more I guess after I've seen all the copies it has sold and all the fantastic reviews, I just thought I'd get more from it.

It never had me in the "edge of my seat" or really surprised. I didn't see that ending coming. Will read the final book. Hope it's with it. Jul 19, moxieBK rated it liked it Shelves: Up until that point, the plot meandered. Both Emma dn Will are working on their relationships and it looks pretty serious for Will. Before then, there were times that one chapter was perfectly fine for me.

One more in this series. At the beginning of the book there was a quick overview of the first book to bring readers who had not read the first one up to speed. Not as strong as the first until the very end, the ending did give it an extra star…but barely. Mar 22, Alexandra Bogdanovic rated it liked it. Unlike many readers, I really enjoyed the first book in this series. So I decided to read the second one straight away -- and why not?

It was free, as well. Unfortunately I regretted the decision almost immediately. While the version I downloaded from iBooks billed this as a "revised and updated version" I caught a few mistakes in the first few pages.

For example, one of the characters apologized for being "noisy" instead of "nosy," and another sentence included the word "here" when it should ha Unlike many readers, I really enjoyed the first book in this series. For example, one of the characters apologized for being "noisy" instead of "nosy," and another sentence included the word "here" when it should have been "her" or vice versa.

See a Problem?

At any rate, it was distracting and annoying. As for the character development and plot, everything felt somewhat contrived and forced. So while I am interested in finding out what the third installment might have in store, I am not intrigued enough to buy the book Perhaps it will end up in the "free" section sooner or later. In either case, I can wait.

Another exciting read with intriguing characters and a great plot. Thoroughly enjoyed listening to this excellent narrator. I can't wait to listen to the conclusion of this outstanding series. I liked it, but I was hoping for a different type of resolution. This was probably more true to life than what I was hoping for. I like that it was set in Minnesota, fun to relate to places I have been. May 05, Holly rated it really liked it. A great sequel to the Emma Holden drama. I started and finished this book in a day, just couldn't put it down.

Well structured and detailed. A real nail biter to the very end. Mar 20, Rhonda rated it liked it Shelves: Nice follow up to the first story. I loved this 2nd one Loved the 2nd one nice to know that they got to the bottom of who was watching and following them.

Get A Copy

Just got done reading The one you love and anxiously wanting to read the one to fear. It is a mystery instead of a thriller like the first one. Good job Mr Pinkington. Lots of irrelevant conversations that get frustrating. There were still major plot holes including the police being conspicuous by their absence for most of the book and it was obvious that someone wasn't who they said they were, but on the whole, it was fairly readable. I really enjoyed reading this book and this series.
