“I never miss a new story from Jodie! She is one of my very favorite Love Inspired suspense authors and her stories always check all the boxes for me. This one had me pulled in very quickly, the mystery and the danger of this one were completely intriguing to me. I stayed up way late reading this one! (Starting it at midnight may not have been my smartest idea but I regret nothing!)”

“This story had me at the edge of my seat with the suspense but also falling in love with the romance! The perfect balance!
When Mia is attacked and it seems that Ruthie , her daughter, is also in trouble Hayden has to step in and keep them safe. Hayden is Ruthies godfather, and Mia's late husband best friend. When Keith was murdered years prior Hayden stepped it up making himself a large part of their life. But now, someone is after Mia and Ruthie, and if he's honest with himself they ARE his life. But both Mia and Hayden are still full of grief and guilt over the loss of Keith. And now Ruthie is being targeted as well and its hard to juggle all that is going on. How can you heal , at the same time you are fighting for your life?! Add in feelings for each other that they don't want to acknowledge they have and it's a confusing time. But most important of all is to find out who is targeting them. So they can not only be safe, but finally slow down and plan for a future. Maybe together?!
Sweet, sweet story. I think this is the first book I've read by Jodie, but it won't be my last, I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Rated: 4.5 stars, rounded up to 5!
