This book is jam-packed with suspense and action. Even though I figured out the killer early on, it was still thrilling. Lydia is strong, intelligent, and well-balanced. Seeing her wrestle with whether her words could inspire murder felt heartfelt and real. Despite my love for romantic suspense, I have strong opinions about romance during traumatic events (why is a love interest important now?), but somehow, Caudill made it work! The romance was both slow-building and fast-paced, making it feel authentic and rewarding. I may now truly understand the lure of a relationship under these circumstances. With strong themes of justice, humility, and mercy, this book delivers a powerful Christian message.
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions are my own.
