Maximum Exposure
Good prequel for Max Revere series. Oct 30, Liz Matz rated it really liked it. Great intro to series,has me sold n on third book of series. May 16, Nadine rated it it was amazing. WOW, this was a short book. I am hooked on Allison Brennan's other series and didn't think I would like this one but I really love it. I'm sorry I didn't read it sooner. Dec 13, Lisbeth rated it really liked it Shelves: End of the year and I have treated myself to some very easy going reading.
Allison Brennan is really a little bit addictive! Finishing Best Laid Plans and continuing with the latest in the Lucy Kincaid series No Good Deed, I realised that there will not be another one for at least half a year. I therefore looked into her Max Revere series and hit another interesting series, of which there is a novella and two novels already out. Next one in the series will be out in April next year. No Good Deed End of the year and I have treated myself to some very easy going reading. There is suspense on every page, and when you think there can't be any more It is really amazing.
You just can't let the book down until you have finished. Her stories are so complex, with many characters, but she manages to keep it all together until the very end. Starting on the Max Revere series was another hit.
Maximum Exposure
The first one is a novella, Maximum Exposure, with the background story of how Maxine Revere came to be solving crimes. She is a criminal journalist and TV show hostess, trying to solve cold cases. She is tough and independent, have money in the background that always makes it easier! She is working with David, former military man, who is both assistant and bodyguard when needed.
The Content ReaderWhat I find so addictive with this series, almost more than with the other, is that the stories are so good. I just finished Notorious where Max goes back to her family in California to attend a funeral of a childhood friend, Kevin. Seventeen years ago, one of their friends, Lindy was brutally murdered and Kevin was accused of the murder.
He was acquitted due to circumstantial evidence only, but was believed to be the culprit. Ever since his life went into a downward spiral until recently, when he started to look into who the murderer really was. The Content ReaderIt is a fascinating story of dysfunctional families and ties, where family goes before anything else.
The more Max looks into the various deaths; Lindy's, Kevins suicide was it really suicide or murder , another murder taking place and another murder discovered, she gets more and more confused. Working with the local police is not always straightforward or easy. Looking into old family secrets is not popular either, so Max feels antagonism from all sides.
Not that that would discourage her. And when she meets detective Nick Santini other feelings start surfacing. Ms Brennan manages to provide her stories with fascinating characters, whether they are good or bad. Often, at least in the Lucy Kincaid series, we get to follow also the bad characters, so you have two storylines that in the end collides. This makes it even more suspenseful since you don't know how your 'heroes' will get away from, or avoid these evil deeds. For the Max Revere series the stories are more complex and it is difficult until the very end to find out who really is the culprit.
There are several to choose from, at least in Notorious. However, I suspected the real murderer, I had to abandon the idea along the way, just to pick it up again in the very end. I have just started the third book in the series, Compulsion, but really have no time to read today, plus I have a couple of other books I have to finish. But it is difficult to stay away.
My fingers are itching to take up my ipad and continue reading! Review from my book blog The Content Reader - thecontentreader. Feb 28, Willis S.

Jun 07, Angela Risner rated it really liked it. The single is a great appetizer, though this particular story has nothing to do with the events in Notorious, the full-length novel that is published after this. Max Revere is an investigative reporter whose former college classmate is after her to become the star of a new TV journalism show think On the Case with Paula Zahn. Max hates the idea and tries to say no.
Meanwhile, she is interested in the case of missing college student. Frustrated with the students who were with the boy when he went missing, she pushes the local police department as well as the college to find the truth. Great character and definitely an interesting read.

The secondary characters have depth despite brief page time and Max is in her element. Well-written, fast-paced and enjoyable. This tease for the full-length novel's release has me salivating for more.
Max Revere and her assistant, the enigmatic David Kane, promise a great deal of suspense and action in this series. Apr 01, Ingo rated it it was amazing. Bought this to get to know the author and as a prequel to buying Notorious or not. Great, just long enough to be read before sleeping although it got late and in one mad rush. And no real justice for once, wow, that is a difference, unfair though it may feel. Highly recommended, and now I do not know wether to start with Sudden Death or Notorious. Feb 06, Nancy added it.

The mother, however, was able to bury her son after his body was recovered. Nov 26, Katey rated it really liked it Shelves: This is the first story in a new series by Allison Brennan. I think I will like Max Revere.
I'm not sure about her having her own TV show, but I like her solving cases. This is the first story that actually sent a shiver down my spine. It probably had something to do with hypothermia. I didn't like the ending, because I thought the boys wouldn't get off as easily as they seemed to. But the head of the security department did get fired for not following proper procedures that may have been set.
T This is the first story in a new series by Allison Brennan. That's a little justice, and the mother got some closure.
MAXIMUM EXPOSURE

While it may seem cruel for the announcer to poke fun at some of the mishaps suffered by the subjects of the films, most of the footage is of people doing things that is bound to get them into some difficult, if not harmful situations. Examples- the skateboarders who leap with their boards onto stairway railings and then crash and burn, the guy who leaped from a tree while tied to a rope bungee jumping? There are hundreds more images, but almost all of them are of people doing something foolish, and you quickly lose empathy for the subjects.
Also, Cam does take a serious tone when dictated, for example, a South American hostage situation, and he does not disrespect true victims.
