Synopsis

***
This is Book One in the Acts Of Honor series, the spin-off series to Men Of Honor. It’s told in dual POV, has an HEA with no cliffhanger and it can be read as a standalone. However, I highly recommend that you read the Men Of Honor series prior, as characters play recurring roles in both series.
Warning: Due to mature subject matter, such as explicit sexual situations and coarse language, this story is not suitable for anyone under the age of 18.

Review by: SAM
I'm sitting here writing this review with tears streaming down my face! The thing with KC Lynn's books, her characters become a part of you. You read the story of these people, but it isn't just about reading a book. You live these characters, you feel them, you ride along on their journey and they become a part of your soul.
When I finished the MOH series, I was completely at a loss for words. I missed each character, I cried a lot and I just wasn't ready to say goodbye. So when 'An Act Of Redemption' hit my kindle, I automatically became nervous. Those nerves mean a huge deal to me as a reader and in all honesty, I only ever get them with certain authors. I get nervous because I just know without a shadow of a doubt, KC Lynn will deliver something so heartfelt, so powerful and so beautiful that again I need to free up some space in my heart and soul for more characters and I was not wrong! This book......OH MY SWEET HOLY JESUS.....Anna and Logan have taken another space up and I wouldn't have it any other way.
6 INCREDIBLE STARS.
We got to know Anna's story throughout the Men Of Honour series. She is one character I simply fell in love with. Her strength, oh wow her strength, the pain and experiences she has had to endure would be enough to force any human being to give up. That is why I knew this story would cause so many deep emotions because you get to see her freedom, her new journey and HER CHOICES that she made!
Anna and Logan, high school sweethearts, two souls from different backgrounds who are just meant to be as one. You feel this from the very first page. And despite what happens, the turmoil and pain these two have to suffer, the time spent apart, the new choices they have to make, you feel their love throughout the entire book.
Anna is just so beautiful, so brave, so strong and so selfless. She has this inner beauty of wanting to help everyone she encounters and along with her sassy edge, makes her an absolute privilege to read. Her love for her BROTHERS, their bond, was just so stunning to read, I found myself just completely blown away.
Logan, the protective, fierce, loyal and without a doubt one of the most amazing men I have experienced whilst reading. He is absolutely EVERYTHING! I understood his choices, even if some were not his to make, I still GOT IT! I sympathised with his thoughts, his feelings and I adored his love for Anna. I also just love the way KC Lynndelivers an Alpha. Logan will give you goosebumps, butterflies and you may need to sit in your freezer for an hour or twelve! HOTTER THAN HELL ITSELF!
The chemistry between Anna and Logan went above and beyond my expectations. I wasn't sure how KC Lynn was going to deliver the next generation and their stories but it was written with ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. The emotion was breathtaking, the steam was OUT OF THIS WORLD and the laughter, oh my lord the banter and the funnies that these characters brought to each scene, it just made it feel like home.
KC Lynn has this way with words that is simply unique to her. How she captures the depth and heart wrenching emotion of the characters, and writes with such an easy, beautiful fluidity and flow, making her books shine so bright and making her one of the best authors to grace the book world.
Readers, if you have not experienced this authors work, I encourage you right now, STOP WHATEVER YOU ARE DOING, go and one click the Men Of Honour series, devour those babies and then, BUY THIS BOOK!!!!!! An Act OfRedemption is a masterpiece. I will return to it again and again just because those feels that I experienced, it's the reason I read.
Review by: Heather
An Act Of Redemption is the highly anticipated first book in the Acts Of Honor series the spin-off of best-selling Men of Honor series by KC Lynn. Now you don't have to read Men of Honor first but I highly recommend you do to get the full effect and impact of Anna and Logan's story.
I am not giving anything away on the plot of this story or recap it as I feel readers need the full experience of the love that is Logan and Anna.
Despite everything Anna has been through in her young life she is so strong. One of the best female leads I have read in a long time. She is kind and loving and is the perfect match for hot as hell alpha Logan.
Logan is just the perfect mix of broody and fierce protector and sweet as hell.
The love that these two have for each knows no bounds and that is the pure beauty of an Act of Redemption.
I experienced so many different feels from this book it was unbelievable. It was touching, heart warming, heart breaking and has stayed with me long after I read the book.
This is KC Lynn's best work to date! The writing is flawless and engaging. I was sucked in from page one and had the feels immediately. The chemistry and the underlying messages (as there always is at least one in KC's books which is one of the many things I love about her writing) are portrayed perfectly. I felt myself rooting for these characters immediately and was really glad that there wasn't anything that made me want to throw my kindle lol
The sexy times in this book were a perfect mix of hot and sweet. Romance at its best. Appearances from my favorite men of honor and their women rounded out this amazing book.
Logan and Anna will no doubt capture your heart and you will not want them to give it back!
5 stars
Review by: AMY E
I loved this book for so many reasons. The writing was spectacular, it was engaging, exciting, heartfelt and brought out all my emotions from the prologue through the epilogue. The duel point of view gives you a look into the mind of Logan Knight a man who's intrigued me since book one of The Men of Honor series. Plus you get the added bonus of a continued storyline from all our favorite characters from that series.
Anna is a truly beautiful and rare character. Her strength, compassion, loyalty, heart, and ability to forgive are phenomenal and rarely seen. She is the heart of this group of friends who has become a family.
Logan is stubborn, bull headed, proud, and has a very dirty mouth just like a real alpha male should. But his love for Anna is what makes him stand out from the rest. It is so beautiful and so true it makes me long for that kind of real life love.
This book is the first in a new series but, I feel like The Men of Honor series is truly complete now that Anna And Logan's story has been told.

Review by: DAWN
Lord this book I could not put down. It was a heartbreaking emotional ride throughout the whole book. These characters go through so much that you can't help but to feel as though you want to bang their heads together and say "What the 2 hell are you doing" Why this book has so many emotions in it that you can't help but to feel every single one with them. It showed that at the end of the day you see that all that matters is family and the love you have for each other. The only thing I wish is that the author would have gone into a little more about the time when she was taken. Other than that this is one hell of an emotional roller coaster ride of a book.

Synopsis
Emily Michaels ~ Have you ever felt like you didn’t belong? Like you never fit in, or you weren’t good enough? This is how I have felt for as long as I can remember. I see the world differently than everyone else, I feel everything differently and I reflect on life differently. And being different in my world is not a good thing. I live in a place that’s divided between the rich and the poor, the beautiful and the unbeautiful, the prestigious and the mediocre. I have always belonged in the first category, because my father was the Governor of Georgia. Growing up around people I could never relate with, my life had always been lonely, that was until my senior year when I met the one boy who would change my life forever. A boy who my parents would never approve of because he didn’t come from money or the same social class. He rode a motorcycle, had tattoos and was considered to be from the wrong side of the tracks. Yet he was still envied by many.
Ryder Jameson was someone who every guy feared, and one who every girl wanted to be touched by. He didn’t do attachments, or have friends… until me. And for the first time in my life I finally felt like I belonged. When I was with him, my different didn’t feel wrong or ugly. He made me feel beautiful- insightfully beautiful. Then one day my world came crashing down on me, and it would be six years before I'd once again see the boy I fell in love with.
Ryder Jameson ~ After working my ass off I am given the opportunity of a lifetime, and if I pull it off I will be the youngest FBI agent to run one of the biggest undercover operations in history. Only the case that gets thrown in front of me leads me back to the one place I swore I would never return to, and to the only girl who’s ever mattered to me.
Except Emily Michaels is not the same girl I left behind. She still looks the same, she’s still beautiful inside and out, but there’s one thing that’s very different about her, one very big thing, and it’s something I didn’t think was possible.
Ryder and I come from a world where politics separates us and wealth defines us, but even after all this time we will not let it divide us. Here is our story.
This is a standalone novel with an HEA and is told in dual POV. Due to mature subject mature, such a explicit sexual situations and coarse language, this story is not suitable for anyone under the age of 18.
