A neighbors to lovers story with lots of action and suspense.
Katelyn Bradley opened up a private investigation business with her brother Ryan’s fiancee Tori. She had previously been with the Mount Shasta Police Department but quit after a bad experience. So she has the training and the skills. That’s what she relied on when she saw someone sneaking around Beck Goodwin’s house. Sure enough once she entered the house she found a masked man hovering over Beck in Beck’s library. Katelyn fought the man and managed to rip off his mask enabling her to see his face. But he got away. When the police arrived she agreed to stop at the station in the morning to look at mug shots. But later that night Beck got to return the “saving a life” favor when he caught the same man trying to smother Katelyn with her pillow. He fought off the guy but the guy got away again. This was just the beginning of the attempts on their lives. Katelyn and Beck needed to get some answers.
Beck Goodwin is a former world class rock climber who now works at a rock climbing facility. Beck and his son Ollie are still recovering from the death of Mia, Beck’s wife, Ollie’s mother in a hit and run automobile accident a year ago. Beck is convinced that the truck hitting Mia’s car and pushing it through the guard rail on the bridge and into the water below was no accident. But the police didn’t believe him. After the break-in at his house and Katelyn’s house Beck hires Katelyn to help track down the assailant. They survive many dangers. The one danger he can’t run and hide from though is his attraction to Katelyn. After Mia deceived him Beck doesn’t think he is ready to love again.
Covert Cover-Up by Elizabeth Goddard is the second book in her Mount Shasta Secrets series. This is a fast-paced story. Action and danger practically leap off the pages. The two main characters Katelyn and Beck both have doubts about having a relationship after trust issues from past experiences. They both fight hard to ignore the fact they are falling in love. I really liked how both Katelyn and Beck were super protective of each other. They both are very brave, competent people. This book was a fast read with lots of suspense.

Get ready to be strapped in for a roller coaster ride! From the first chapter to the last, Beck and Katelyn are constantly on the run! They are neighbors but as soon as they figure out that Beck’s deceased wife was murdered, not accidentally killed, they don’t know who is after them. However, when they figure it out, it is a race to stay one step ahead of the assassins! Beck has a darling son, Ollie, who makes an appearance now and then and I would have liked to see more of him but really, Beck was doing all he could to keep him out of the way of these crazy men after them! It was a wonder how they stayed alive! My only “negative” comment is that Beck was a little too bossy in my opinion. Katelyn was a trained private investigator and ex-cop. She knew her stuff and yet Beck seemed to tell her what to do a lot or lead the investigation when HE was the one who hired her! It would have been a lot better if she were more forceful and if he would have listened to her more but I enjoyed the story and the action was non-stop so I had a very hard time put the book down! Can’t wait for the next one!
