When you have trust issues, why is it you’re drawn to a man you feel certain is keeping secrets? And can love find its way in that kind of trap? That’s what I liked most about this book. It’s a common challenge too many face, but handled well in this inspirational book. I enjoyed it.
This book had so many twists and lots of suspense. I was so happy that Cassidy finally confided in Ty. Even though I have really loved this whole series, I think this may be my favorite.
Christy Barritt jumps right into the suspense with all of her books. I stayed up to finish this book on the day it came out and didn’t regret the reading hangover the next day.
This is the 4th installment of Christy Barritt’s Lantern Beach Series — and it’s a winner! Cassidy is living on a small island off the coast of NC, hiding out from the mob who has a million $ bounty on her head, selling ice cream, solving mysteries, helping people, and falling in love. Then, she sees someone dangerous from her past. Or does she? He certainly looks like him, but he doesn’t act like him or walk like him or . . . Cassidy is ready to pack up and flee and leave the life she has grown to love, but a tugging inside is telling her to trust God and trust Ty, the man who she has begun to love. Will she or won’t she? This fourth book has lots of suspense and drama and will keep you guessing. I can’t wait for Book #5!
I received a free copy of this book. The opinions are my own.
Has someone from Cassidy’s past showed up in Lantern Beach? If so, does she run or does she enlist the help of her new friends? You’ll have to read the newest installment in the Lantern Beach series to find out. I could sum up this book in just a few words, a heart-pounding must read!! Give it a try! You won’t be disappointed! I can’t wait to read Book 5 to see what happens next!
I was given a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
3.5 stars
“Focus, Cassidy. This is bigger than you. Bigger than this town.”
Torn between her heart and her head, Cassidy Livingston’s initial inclination is to flee the one place that has begun to feel like home. Tucked away on a small island in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, Cassidy believes she has just spotted a dangerous individual from her past life as an undercover detective in the Seattle, Washington police department. The man among the crowds strongly resembles a member of the notorious DH-7 street gang, Orion; and if he has found her, then everyone that she has grown to love is in “dangerous waters”.
Jump on board this thrilling new episode in Christy Barritt’s “Lantern Beach Mysteries” series!
I love Christy Barrett’s books
This is part of a great suspenseful series that I have been enjoying.
One thing for sure this author knows how to twist a story until she has you spinning. This time she has Cassidy feeling like she’s loosing her mind and she’s not the only one. When I first started this series I wasn’t sure about her as an investigator or how she could possibly be in the midst of all this. As the series progresses and more is revealed I like her more and understand her better. While I wasn’t really on board with her character at the start of the series, through flash backs more is revealed. I like this authors style and while she doesn’t overwhelm us with scriptures, her characters still stay true to God’s word. The message is there it just doesn’t take over the story. There’s plenty of action and the author keeps you wondering what can possibly happen next.
How much longer will Cady/Cassidy need to hide from the threat of the DH-7 against her life? Evidence points to the gang’s tightening rope towards her hideout location on Lantern Beach. Too bad she cannot tell her new-found friends of that threat or her actual identity. Further complicating matters is her budding and promising relationship with ex-SEAL neighbor, Ty. Oh, she wants to disclose the truth to him, but at what cost to them both?
Yet again, Christy Barritt astonishes readers with an action-packed mystery combined with relatable and lovable characters with realistic flaws and depth.
I received a complimentary copy of the book without obligation. This review is my opinion.
The best one yet! I was so excited to read this one… I was on the edge of my seat most of the book. I was thrilled Cassidy fiiiiinally told Ty and Mac her story. I understand not telling too many people, but Ty? Oh, he needed to know! All the more so to help protect her, and his protective heart was quite endearing. Cassidy’s fear was palpable throughout the book. Mac calling her “family” was the sweetest, heartfelt, and Cassidy truly needed to hear it. I think she is rediscovering who she really is and this story furthered that endeavor. If you like edge of your seat mystery and a tad bit of romance, you’ll love “Dangerous Waters”! I highly recommend!
Christy Barritt will keep you turning the pages. I received the first book in the series as a freebie. When I finished it I ordered the next one and before I knew it I bought all 6 books in the series and loved each one. I read all six books in less than 7 days. There is suspense, murder, gang related drug trafficking, humor- an ice cream that seems to have a mind of its own when it comes to playing music – even when its not turned on. You can read each book in the series as a stand alone but each one will not complete the whole story. Each one is better than the last and has a teaser at the end. There is human trafficking, romance, a lighthouse that plays a part in almost all the books. Some of the characters are just that – characters to love, laugh at, some that will make you wonder which side of the law they are really on. My kindle went everywhere with me while I was reading this series.
No one asked me to read, review or say anything about these books. All opinions are my own and all I can say is that I was sorry to see the series to come to an end. I normally don’t like series that go more than 3-4 books. I highly recommend the Lantern Beach series. WARNING!! You might lose some sleep or let a few errands go. I did.
The whole series has been good but this has been the best one yet. Looking forward to the rest.
Great read!
