Kept my interest until the end. Great series.
Great book
Read the whole trilogy. I was Fantastic in true Terri Blackstock style
This was an amazing series…and the ending was on the edge of your seat, biting your nails intense. Lots of unknown details come out in this final book of the trilogy. There are some surprises toward the end.
This book covers the good, the bad, and the ugly. But God’s grace comes through and Cassie learns to see that He is working through it all. She discovers the ability to see God in each situation and how to express her appreciation for them all…no matter how simple and minute.
I have loved this series. I would highly recommend it!
Loved this series.
Terri Blackstock never disappoints. Finished this book and I wondered how she will be able to top this series and hoping she is already working on whatever her next series will be! All three books in this series were quick reads that had me wanting to keep turning the pages!
Another great read by one of my favorite authors. After reading one, you will want all her books. Awaiting her next thriller.
Loved it!!!
Suspenseful
I enjoy reading her books!
WOW! What a way to end this series. This has been one super charged thrill ride from the very beginning. Blackstock successfully kept the momentum going from book to book. This is one of the best series I have read in a long while. I can’t wait to see what she writes next!
*I received a complimentary ARC of this book from NetGalley & Zondervan Fiction in order to read and provide a voluntary, unbiased and honest review, should I choose to do so.

This is book three in a three book series and it is the final installment of the story so you are warned not to read this one until you have the entire set available. Justice was served but what a twisted road to get there. I practically held my breath most of the book as Casey and Dylan gathered evidence against the bad guys. And just when I thought I could breathe easy, more evil happens and more trouble is heaped upon them.
With heart pounding suspense, Blackstock kept me engaged throughout the story. If I Live is a stunning conclusion to the series! This novel can be read in one sitting.
Recommend to readers who enjoy clean, romantic suspense.
I borrowed a copy from my local library. All views expressed are my honest opinion.
Love the whole 3 book series “If I Run” by Terri Blackstock.
Love Teri Blackstock This series is worth reading again. My book club enjoyed the book and voted to read the rest of the series as they came out.
A fitting conclusion to the series. There were a few things that popped out to me that weren’t necessarily bad, but just made me think/smile:
**SPOILER ALERT**
– There’s a lot of carnage. I assume Keegan’s just getting desperate and sloppy because I can’t imagine he killed that many people that frequently for 13 years and no one ever noticed.
– There’s a lot of crying. Dylan cries a lot for a retired army investigator. I’m not sure how Casey stayed hydrated.
– This is the second book I’ve read this year in which the couple assumes that a few minutes of kissing WILL lead to sex. I kissed a few guys before I got married. I didn’t sleep with them. It’s just odd to me.
Like I said, not bad things but they just stuck out to me.
After listening to this audio series in 4-5 days, I’m reminded why I don’t read suspense — I can’t handle it. I HAD to finish the whole series in a week because I could NOT wait to find out what happened. Thank God for the Instant Pot, because dinners were late and ill planned as I finished this series.
Overall, I really enjoyed my first Terri Blackstock suspense series. If/when I decide I’m ready for another does of literary action, I’ll definitely look her up.
PG for carnage! 🙂
Read the whole trilogy. Love the whole everything about it. Great plot, original characters, great character building. Lots of action, faith, love of family and justice done right. Will read more by this aurhor
Read the entire series. Loved it.
Read the series. Loved them all.
This was an excellent conclusion to the series. I missed Casey’s extra adventure like there were in the first two books, but honestly that wouldn’t have been realistic to have at all in this book. I also had a love/hate relationship with Keegan’s perspective. It was interesting to know, but he was such an arrogant character.
I really enjoyed the mystery and how it was wrapped up. All of my questions were answered really and I liked were it went. I also liked how Casey was able to find Jesus even in the chaos, and how her journey was portrayed.
slight spoiler
The only other thing I wish had been included in the end of the story was Casey and her family getting to meet Dex and his wife.
