This is just so, so good! I absolutely loved it.
“Unbreakable” by Cari Hunter was just so unbelievably good. It’s an action-packed thriller and I was hooked from the very beginning.
Elin Breckenridge is seriously injured and in need of medical assistance so she kidnaps Dr. Grace Kendal. At the same time, Detective Sergeant Safia Faris is simply trying to solve a random murder when their stories become intertwined. The plot is too good to really give anything more away so…
The story is told from three different perspectives which I found slightly weird at first, but I grew to love. Elin and Grace and Safia are three very different strong and intelligent women and I honestly think this is the first time where I enjoyed all three POVs equally.
There is a romance here but it’s more of a beginning than anything and I absolutely loved it. I can’t stand it when you’re reading a mystery or thriller and the author tries to make you believe the characters are in a life long relationship after a few days of intense action where people are not their normal selves. Hunter does not do that here. The characters get to know one another in bits and pieces but I was still left feeling happy and hopeful for them and their future.
I highly recommend this!! This was my first-time reading Hunter and it has made me extremely excited to get into her back catalogue.

Yay! And if you haven’t read anything by Hunter then there is so much good stuff waiting for you to be read, I’m jealous;) Great review!
Wow! I have heard nothing but good things about this book and your effusive praise tells me it’s time for me to pick it up. Thanks, Leah! Great review!
Lex - thank you! Exactly! I could believe the ending and found it hopeful. I was extremely glad they weren’t declaring their love after 4 days of extreme circumstances. MZ - I know right? I already bought a couple of them and plan to read them as soon as I can. And thanks! :)
Guerunche - it’s all well deserved praise, trust me :)
Glad you enjoyed it, Cari Hunter is one of the best!
Nice review Leah! I didn't request this one for whatever reason but now I want to read it!
AnnMaree - I can definitely see why you say that. I can’t believe this was my first by her but it makes me happy knowing I have several more to get to :) Jamie - you definitely should, it’s so good.
Yep. Definitely I think that I have to go for it soon. Good review!!
First time reading Hunter? Wow you’re in for a treat when you dive into the back catalogue, I recommend the Dark Peak series, fantastic books and you’ll love them just like you loved this one. Hunter knows how to write mystery/ thriller and just subtly weave in a romance that makes you believe it 100%. Grey review!
Rain - I hope you do, it's very much worth it :)Sam - Yes, it was the first...shocking I know! I've heard lots of good things about the Dark Peak series and I bought the first one so now I just need to find the time to read it! and thank you! :)
