“Under a Turquoise Sky” is an involving, inspiring romantic suspense tale from author Lisa Carter. Aaron Yazzie, known as Rafael Chavez in his guise as an undercover FBI agent, had a tough beginning in life, one he had never forgotten. Despite the love and spiritual teaching of his adoptive parents, bitterness ran deep in him over all he had seen and experienced. The last thing he needed or wanted was to be saddled with safeguarding a federal witness until she could testify against the drug king who had murdered her friend–the drug lord’s own wife–before her eyes. Kailyn Eudailey is a spirited, blonde and beautiful southern belle from a privileged background. She and Aaron appear to be extreme opposites, barely able to tolerate each other, yet stuck together on a dangerous flight from the evil which will stop at nothing to silence Kailyn. A promise to Aaron’s dying father, a US Marshal, keeps Aaron bound to protecting Kailyn with all means at his disposal. He heads back to his roots in the Southwest, taking Kailyn and her small dog to the Navajo Nation where he was born. With contracts out on both their lives, they must evade the ever-approaching danger and learn to deal with the differences between the two of them. But will those differences, along with a growing respect and fondness, lead to something more? If they survive, is there a chance that their futures will be blessed by abiding faith and lasting love? Readers will also greatly enjoy “Beneath a Navajo Moon” from author Lisa Carter.

I absolutely loved this book! The wonderful descriptions, flawed and well-developed characters, excellent writing style, and edge-of-your-seat action kept me turning the pages quicker than other books I’ve read recently. I particularly enjoyed the setting of this book on the Navajo reservation near Farmington, NM because I just visited good friends and missionaries to the Navajo’s there in the fall of 2019.
The author’s scene setting was beautiful and realistic, providing the ability to visualize the area easily. The banter between hero and heroine pulled me in right away and I found myself chuckling aloud at their exchanges. And one of the best parts of this story is the spiritual element of faith and transformation. I highly recommend this read!
This is the second of Lisa Carter’s books I’ve read, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Plot kept me guessing to the end, and the love story was sweet.
Really enjoyed this book. I liked learning about the Navajo people. The story was original and entertaining.
Great story of a couple who “shouldn’t have eyes for each other.” She is a witness for a murder trial. He is an agent sent to protect her. Won’t say more except he has 2 undercover names and isn’t the prissy priss she appears to be. Fun dialogue.
This was a wonderful read. The using of the Navajo culture and the beliefs of the people there made this story really good. I enjoyed this book and will recommend it to anybody who is interested in a book where there is a very good story line.
