This is one fast paced hard hitting story that I couldn’t put down. The author has an amazing gift of getting readers attention with a high profile case that brings out the underbelly of criminals. I really liked Kerry. She is a very strong willed woman that also has a soft spot for children, Her profession as a teacher is admirable and I loved how much she loved her job. Kerry has a very close knit family who is well represented in crime fighting. I can’t imagine what it would be like to have siblings who were in the CIA, FBI and other law enforcement organizations
The story centers around the kidnapping of Kerry and revenge that someone in her brother’s life is trying to succeed at. I have to say she is one gutsy woman. Luke has been asked by her brother to rescue her and this is really the meat of the story. Luke goes one step further and offers to protect her when she is in danger over and over again. There is an element of faith in the story that I found subtle but very well placed as Luke questions if he still believes in God. He is a private person with some deep rooted bitterness he needs to deal with.
The book is one that you will find is filled with twists and maybe a relationship developing if two people will admit their attraction to each other. Luke has a few surprises up his sleeve to keep Kerry safe. The mind games the perpetrator plays is nothing short of devious. I was even getting chills as I read how dangerous this man was becoming. The author is becoming one of my favorite suspense writers and I can’t seem to put her books down until I read every chapter. i loved getting to know Kerry and Luke better. She is able to deliver a chilling, intense story with emphasis on faith, trust forgiveness and commitment.
I received a copy of this book from Celebrate Lit. The review is my own opinion.
Shadows of Suspicion
This is a second in a series but can be read as a stand alone. I am enjoying the series, I always love a good suspense/love story. Kerry is kidnapped right at the beginning of the book but she is clever, strong enough to be able to get away. Luke is hired by her brother to rescue her. Neither one is looking for love but you never know.
The author kept me in suspense wandering when the bad guy was going to strike again, I enjoyed getting to know Luke and Kerry, they were fun characters. I am looking forward to reading more of the series and getting to know more characters.
I received an complementary copy of the book from Celebrate Lit. I was not required to write an positive review. This is my own opinion.
When revenge turns into obsession, things tend to get dicey and Kerry finds herself in the middle of it. After her brother sends a friend to rescue her, then asks him to be her bodyguard until the danger is over, Kerry fights him every step of the way. She only wants her life back and is determined that she can take care of herself. Naturally Kerry finds herself growing more dependent on Luke and could she even be falling for him?
Shadows of Suspicion has a fairly fast-moving plot populated with some interesting characters. Readers will find plenty of suspense and unexpected twists before the end of the story. Faith plays a prominent role in Kerry’s life and helped keep her strong throughout the ordeal. I enjoyed meeting up again with members of Kerry’s family and look forward to seeing what happens to some of them in future books of this series.
I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book provided by Celebrate Lit. A favorable review was not required. All views expressed are my own.
This second book in the Shadows Series is sure to keep you at the edge of your seat. The family is back and this time the victim is Kerry, a second grade teacher. The son of Charles Deveraux, Chris, has decided revenge for his father’s imprisionment is his responsibility. The excitement heats up with stalking,vandalism and abduction bringing rescue from unexpected quarters. Is it possible that romance might also come along with the bodyguard?
A most enjoyable book with the importance of faith in God clearly portrayed by Kerry and her family. Will they continue to trust in Him and rest in the knowledge that everything will work out for the best?
