Thrilling read from start to finish with tons of twists and murder. There is a madman stalking Faith but its not the one she thinks it is.
Faith Day had a horrific childhood and as an adult she found out that those remaining family members were guilty of horrible cover ups and crimes. These trauma’s made her walk away from her budding relationship with FBI Agent Luke Justice.
When her best friend’s husband is murdered and she is accused of it Faith comes out of hiding to help. Luke is there by her side even though she still not through with pushing him away but this killer is cunning and she will need all the help (and love) she can get to survive.
Reading the previous books in the series would certainly help as the current murders are tied to her past. The author does revisit so even if you haven’t you aren’t at a total loss. I highly recommend this series for suspense lovers.
I really enjoyed this addition to Faith and Luke’s story. As I stated in my review for book one, Faith is broken. At times that makes her a little unlikable but real. I enjoyed watching her grow in this book even though there were still times I wanted to yell at her. Luke, ahhhhh, I love him even more after reading this. It was also fun to see Lil and Coop. Overall, it was a great read and I’d reccomend the whole series.
I really enjoyed the latest book in the Paynes Creek Thriller series. The author has been slowly building up to things that come to a head in this story. We gain insight into more of our favorite characters and continue to see some of the main characters from previous stories. This book has many things that I enjoy – developed characters (good people with flaws – so they are not “perfect” – but are realistic), well described setting (small town in Kentucky), and a story with multiple layers that make allow for unpredictable twists and turns. This book can be read without reading the previous books in the series, because adequate background is provided – however I recommend reading the entire series! Thank you to Heather Sunseri for another awesome story!
Another great thriller by Heather Sunseri. Paynes Creek is a lovely, idyllic little town in Kentucky that I would love to live in. Except for, you know, the murders. Faith Day left Paynes Creek after a whole mess involving most of her immediate family either being dead or in jail. Unfortunately, one more murder brings her back. The only up side? Reuniting with sexy as sin Luke Justice; 6’2”, green eyed, totally in love with Faith, FBI agent.
I loved how it wasn’t just a insta love story with a disaster in the background. Both parts were seamlessly woven together giving us a mystery to solve and a romance to watch. With this being the third book that takes place at Paynes Creek, we also see more of Cooper Adams and Lily Thomas as well as Faith’s aunt Leah and the rest of Paynes Creek’s residents.
There is some sex, though not graphically. This has a happy ending and no cliffhanger.
Mind blown. There are so many layers of tangled secrets in this series, and they all seem to come to a head in this story. In fact, I’m not even sure what I can say about this book that won’t give them all away. I felt the way I imagine an addict does as I desperately flipped pages looking for my next hit, anxiously trying to ferret out the hidden clues that would break the whole thing wide open. The one thing I know for certain is that while I adore where this book leaves Faith and Luke, I’m nowhere near ready to let go of these characters just yet.
I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book from the author.
Heather Sunseri has done it again! A real page-turner. Faith and Luke have been through a lot since they first met. Follow the next chapter in their lives. Surprises and suspense will keep you reading! Just when you think you figured it out, think again! Love is stronger than psychopathy! The end will leave you wanting more! Happy reading, y’all!
You know you have those books that once you finish you just kinda sit there and reflect on the journey that you’ve been on? Well “Secret is in the Bones” is one of those books. I’ll admit, I can’t get enough of Faith and Luke, and would willingly read more. The dynamic between all the characters is, I think, what makes Faith and Luke’s story so good. Not just Faith and Luke but all the characters. Even the sadistic, evil killers do their part to make this such a good book. Yes, I know, that sounds really bad, who says that killers are doing their job? Don’t judge, they’re from the mind of an amazing author, blame her. There were definitely waterworks in this one. My heart absolutely broke for Ethan and what he had suffered, not saying that what he done to Faith at seventeen wasn’t horrible, but still my heart broke for him. He had tried to make amends and in the end I guess he did. My heart also broke for Faith and all the things she had suffered in her life and would continue to suffer. Since this author is fairly new to me, I’m hoping that she has more in store for Luke, Faith and Paynes Creek, Kentucky.
