About this audiobook
For the last four years, Allie Grant has been the lover-and confidante, confessor, and counselor-of one of the world's most powerful and deadly men. But a sudden, rash move has put Allie in the crosshairs of a ruthless Russian crime lord. Mort knows of only one place where Allie will be safe: with The Fixer.
As a hired desperado, The Fixer has killed twenty-three people-and Mort was complicit in her escape from the law. She has built an impregnable house, stocked it with state-of-the-art gear, armed it to the teeth, and locked herself away from the world. But even The Fixer may not be able to get justice for Allie when real evil comes knocking.

The Unforgivable Fix by T. E. Woods is a not-to-be-missed, very highly recommended third installment of the Justice series, which features The Fixer.
Wowza! I unabashedly love the Fixer. The series by T. E. Woods begins with The Fixer followed by The Red Hot Fix, and now the latest, The Unforgivable Fix. The synopsis tells followers a modicum about what's happening with this third book of the series (Mort trying to move on and his wayward daughter, Allie, returning), but let me just clue you in that there is a bit more happening that will throw you for a loop, twist things up, and send every nerve in your body longing for The Fixer to get to work again.
It is good to see Lydia Corriger, a clinical psychologist, returning to work. While opening her practice again, she is asked by a friend to take on the task of providing a Ph.D. student some clinical experience. While her relationship/friendship with Mort is shaky, at least it's still there. Mort surprises her by introducing her to his long-lost and up-to-no-good daughter, Allie.
Allie will likely annoy every fiber of your being, but just go with it because Lydia is experienced enough to read her like a book. In the end, though, even Lydia can't anticipate every move Allie is planning to make, especially when Lydia's distracted by the outcome of the therapy sessions her grad student is holding.
Now that I've declared my love of the series, I have to add the disclaimer that my feelings are based on reading all three novels in order. I'm not sure if I'd just jump into this third novel without having at least read the first novel for background information. My advanced reading copy didn't have a synopsis of the first two books, so I don't know if the final version will include that, but it will be worth your time to read the previous books. Woods is an excellent writer who propels her storylines forward by keeping the pace swift and the action moving. And, yes, there are some nice plot twists added into the mix.
Disclosure: My Kindle edition was courtesy of Random House for review purposes. - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The Unforgivable Fix by T E Woods THE UNFORGIVABLE FIX is the second in a series involving Lydia Corriger, a brilliant psychologist with a secret past recently discovered by her friend Mort, who just happens to be a policeman. After being shot, Lydia has been off work for the past couple years and has decided to return to work after talking with an old friend, who has a student looking to get in some clinical hours. Lydia decides to take on the student and reopen her practice. About the same time Mort's daughter needs a safe place to hide while waiting for witness protection. What better place than with Lydia, who just happens to be suicidal on top of everything else.From the opening scene until the end you become involved with the characters attempting to figure out just who is who and what is going to happen to them. All the people in the story catch your attention and the ending is sort of a shock as we see that Allison is not who she appears to be. It keeps you guessing until the end when Mort turns his back on Lydia after deciding he cannot be her friend anymore. I had not read the first story, but had no problems following along with this installment. If you like mystery, action stories you should like this one.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is the third story in a series involving the Fixer (Lydia Corriger) and Detective Mort Grant. Mort is the only one who knows Lydia’s true indemnity. Although, now she is resume her therapy practice and take sin new patients and an intern. Mort’s long-lost daughter Allie has come back home to hid from her drug lord boyfriend and/or the Russian mobster who is out for revenge. Mort feels that Lydia is the only one who can protect Allie and wants her to hide out with her. Neither Lydia nor Allie like one another and are soon butting heads while Mort is trying to apprehend her lover. Meanwhile Lydia’s intern has an agenda all his own. Yes, you should read the first two novels to get to know more about Mort and Lydia I read the second one), and as with that one, this is a fast paced, though provoking, action packed thriller that I could put down. I like Mort, his daughter Allie not so much and we see a somewhat tender side of Lydia. Very enjoyable read for a long train ride home.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5How far does friendship extend? In this case, too far, I think. I really cannot understand why Lydia Corriger would allow Mort to park his daughter Allie at her place, except, of course, that if she did not, there would be no story.There are plenty of holes in the plot, not the least of which is that the bad guys somehow can't see Mort driving back and forth from Seattle to Lydia's house in Olympia. Not once, but many times. Most people with a few bucks to spend would use a tracking device.Other details are off too. A real assassin would not use an AK-47 because it is so inaccurate and unreliable. A bad guy uses his real name in a situation where he should have used an alias. As a textile collector, I am also curious why a spa would give a client a cashmere robe to wear. Cashmere is wool and is rather more allergy causing than cotton and, of course, cashmere is not washable.I received a review ebook of "The Unforgivable Fix: A Justice Novel" by T. E. Woods (Random House - Alibi) through NetGalley.com.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Lydia Corriger had some rough years but she decided it was time to reopen her consult again. So after just a few hours at work, she had one case of child abuse and a PhD student to supervise, Zach Edward. But that's not all, her old friend Mort Grant needed her help with his long gone daughter Allie; she escaped from the rival of his lover, a boss cartel.Lydia had an amazing return to work, don't you think?It seems that when I start reading a book saga, I can never do it from the first book! This is the third book of the Mort Grant series, but other than a few references to previous situations, I haven't had any problem following the book.I am always interested in a book that talks about real problems, a father in law who allegedly abuses his daughter and how the rest of the family have to face this problem. Normally you read the perspective of the victim, this time it is the psychiatrist view, more objective but maybe more painful because you can feel the agony of the victim and the helplessness of the psychiatrist to aid her.Could the money buy a get out of jail card?The other story of this book is about Ally, a young and beauty woman that love to use men in her own benefice, she utilise all her power to make any men to succumb to her will.I can just flatter this book, it has some gripping moments and a few unexpected twists that a thriller lover will bewitch.I will read the first two books of this series and I will be expecting anxiously for the next book!Are you ready for "The Fixer"?
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The third book in this series or the final book in a trilogy (I hope not) continues the interaction between our detective and our vigilante. In this episode, our detective finally decides to move on and out of the house where he raised his family and lost his wife. Our vigilante tries to restore her surface professional life. Into these efforts the detective's daughter returns, to cause chaos in both the drug world where she has lived for many years and the world of normal people like her father. It all ends with our detective and our vigilante at odds with each other because they didn't agree with the daughter's decision about her future. You have to read it to believe it.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I received this book in exchange for an unbiased review from Netgalley. This is the third book in a series, but it stands very well on it's own. It is an intriguing read with a unique storyline and interesting characters. It has a lot of twists and the story covers a lot of grey area that makes you think. I now need to buy the first two books in the series!
