My review:
I am not a fan of dogs, but for some reason I always enjoy a story where dogs are used by police, military, or search and rescue. So even if I didn't know the author was a great writer, the dog on the cover would have drawn me in. But I have read several of her books, and she never disappoints.
This is a book that has everything you need for a great story: a great and likable hero and heroine, a cute little boy, family drama - major family drama, a police dog, suspense, and even a match-making grandma. :)
There is a lot going on in this book. Things start happening in the first few pages with an attack on a boat, then there are several more attempted attacks throughout the book as our hero and heroine try to find out what the bad guys are after. There are a couple surprises, though I was not too surprised by the one...I had my suspicions.
And of course there is romance. Match-making Grandma's first success story. Jared lost his wife in a hit and run two years before, and that with his guilt over the accident has him dragging his feet, but this is a romantic suspense novel, so you know it will all work out in the end. Right?
It was a book that kept me on the edge of my seat til the very end, and I enjoyed every minute of it.
Special thanks to the author for an advance copy of this book. I was under no obligation to provide a review and the thoughts contained herein are my own.
Coming May 21, 2024.
About the author:
From medical secretary to court reporter to property manager to owner of a special events decorating company, Carol's résumé reads as if she doesn't know what she wants to be when she grows up. But one thing that has remained constant through the years is her love for writing. She started as a child writing poetry for family and friends, then graduated to articles and finally novels.
Carol lives in sunshiny Central Florida and writes fun and fast-paced inspirational romance and romantic suspense. Her books have received a 2016 Royal Palm Literary Award and been nominated for a 2016 RITA® award and a 2014 RT Reviewers’ Choice Best Book Award. She is also a popular speaker, presenting workshops on a variety of craft topics. Besides writing, she enjoys sailing, hiking, camping—almost anything outdoors. Her two grown daughters and grandkids live too far away for her liking, so she now pours all that nurturing into taking care of a fat and sassy black cat and a highly-spoiled dachshund.
