I received an ARC copy of the book from the publisher and this is my honest review. Only One Wave is the latest in Jenifer Ruff’s FBI and CDC thriller series. Even thought it is part of the series, it can be read alone. Make sure you have nothing else to do when you start reading this book. I couldn’t stop reading till I finished it! Dr. Madeline Hamilton is sent to a remote island to determine what is causing an unusual illness. She is accompanied by her fiancé and together they work to piece t...

A very light “vacation” read. You don’t need the other 2 novels in this series to read this one.
Wow!Fascinating! Scary! Scientifically accurate! And characters you want to follow. Can't wait for more in this series! Please, please, please!!!
This was a tragic and scary story. It's hard to think this could happen
Only One Wave is the third in a series of medical thrillers starring CDC Dr. Madeline Hamilton and FBI agent Quinn Traynor, but you don't have to have read the other two books to jump right into this story. It begins with Hamilton and Traynor traveling to a remote tropical island to investigate a frightening new potential virus outbreak. The book is a smart, fast-paced thriller filled with twists and turns to keep the reader guessing. I couldn't put it down!I received an advance copy of this boo...
Caution: once you start this book you'll want to postpone everything on your to do list until you are finished. Only one wave kept me nervously turning each page. Madeline and Quinn are the perfect combination of intelligent, tenacious, loyal and tender-hearted. They are the good guys you love to root for and hope win in the end. This time the stakes are higher than ever. Taking the form of a pandemic, it is timely yet I never felt it was too much to take in. I could escape in a great suspense a...
🌊 A TSUNAMI OF SUSPENSE! Looking for a suspenseful medical thriller – look no further! This story about a CDC epidemiologist and her fiancé, an FBI agent, sent to a remote tropical island in the aftermath of a Tsunami to investigate a strange outbreak of irrational, violent behavior among the survivors will grab your attention right from the start of the story and keep it in a stranglehold until the very end. The characters are authentic, the setting is idyllic (I could almost feel the tropical
Holy Toledo! Hang on to your seat!! Only One Wave by Jenifer Ruff was one of those books that hooks you and won’t let you go until you’re finished and beyond. I finished last night and I’m still thinking about this exciting book. Number one. The medical part of the story is awesome. There is a Tsunami on the Island of Nalowale and a virus follows. The story is the race to find out how to cure it. I loved all the medical testing and attempts at treatment. If you’re like me and love medical stuff,...
I received this as an ARC. I have enjoyed Only One Wave ax much as I have Jennifer's other books. Her books are always easy and quick reads with likeable characters. I anxiously wait for the next book to come out as I enjoy Madeline and Quinn's storyline, especially now that Ben in involved.
Oh wow!!! With everything going on in the world at the moment the last thing I wanted to read about was a virus but as it was written by one of my favourite authors I gave it a go and boy am I glad I did!!! I loved it and was very quickly hooked on the suspense, the mystery of who was behind it all and most importantly who would survive. With so much going on the story it is a non stop roller coaster ride of emotions and action, one that had me wanting to skip to the end because I needed to know...
be very carefulLoved, loved, this book. Action packed. Drama. Horror as people died. The thought of people losing everything through a natural disaster is frightening. Read this book straight through and liked the ending but I hated reaching the end.
I received an ARC copy of this book. This is my honest review.Ruff has crafted an intelligent, fascinating, modern day mystery. A pandemic breaks out on an island near Guam. The sickness has occurred on the heels of a devastating tsunami. To sort out the confusion, the CDC calls in Dr. Madeline Hamilton, a revered epidemiologist. She is accompanied by her fiancé Quinn, a trained FBI agent for moral support. The convergence of events makes it nearly impossible for Dr. Hamilton to run the proper t...
This is a brilliant read.Wonderful well written plot and story line that had me engaged from the start.Love the well fleshed out characters and found them believable.Great suspense and found myself second guessing every thought I had continuously.Can't wait to read what the author brings out next.Recommend reading.I read a complimentary advance copy of the book; this is my voluntary and honest review.
Thos is the third book in the series that I have read. Suspenseful,Left me guessing at times, and though fiction, it could be a reality. Am enjoying all the books so far.
Jenifer Ruff’s second book, Only One Wave: The Tsunami Effect, is a great book and maybe the best in this series. It starts out fast with a gripping storyline that is very feasible and plausible. This book raises the question “How vulnerable is our country to biological threats”? Look forward to reading the next book.
Suspenseful, but some of the scenarios just didn't seem plausible.
Very predictable with simplistic characters who were stereotypes of completely good or completely bad individuals. Also, some parts raised my cynical eyebrows. For example, an FBI agent is able to leave his duties for an unknown period of time to accompany his fiance to do some research on a remote island at the drop of a hat. That was convenient for the plot and the love story, but it was not realistic.Despite these drawbacks, if you want a light, science based thriller to read, this will do.
I enjoyed reading this though you could quickly some parts.Was a well put together story with very good characters. Wanting to read more of the authors books
