Publisher's summary

A shared past....

Riley Glen’s former girlfriend, recording artist Leah Kent, is performing at a summer concert nearby and calls to tell him she’s in danger and needs his help. After the concert, he discovers her bending over a woman’s dead body, and the woman has Leah’s name freshly tattooed on her wrist. Leah claims she just found the body and didn’t have anything to do with the murder. When two other bodies are found, both boasting Leah’s name in bright ink on their wrists, she comes under suspicion for the murders. Riley jumps in to defend her from both an imminent arrest and a killer’s deadly rage.

A new beginning?

Riley and Leah had once been a music team and deeply in love. But Riley’s lifelong dream was to be a sniper, not a musician. He chose to follow his dream and has been successful in his career just as Leah has found success in hers. He still has feelings for Leah, but their lives are on vastly different courses. But when she begs for his help to clear her name and protect her, he agrees to do what he can. Riley soon discovers this killer is highly trained and vicious, and Leah won’t survive another day unless Riley uses every skill he possesses to try to save her.

Decent book

I just couldn’t like the character of Leah. She came across shallow and hypocritical and selfish.

Great story!

Love this series! This book is my favorite so far! The story, the lead love story, and the trials were so realistic. Wonderful way to add light to how we trust God and really trust God.

Good book

I have loved this series and plan to finish. I had trouble connecting with the Leah in this story. I can’t put my finger on why, but I just never really liked her. I never really saw her as a love interest for Riley. Otherwise, a good book. I finished to the end and I’m glad I read it, but the others have been MUCH better to me.

One of My Favorites

This was a well written book by Susan Sleeman that kept me in suspense wondering who the bad guy was.

Great Murder Mystery and Redwmptiin

The character with secrets that could be fatal. lost love that cannot be denied. Resolution and onviction that no longer get feels like sacrifice.

I didn't like the narration

I just didn't like this story or narration. The story seemed artificial and unrealistic on so many levels. I didn't like some of the voices as narrated.

Great Narration horrible characters

Love the Blackwell team but these two were characters were awful. She whined the whole time and he was angry with her the whole time. Glad it’s over. They were a toxic couple.

Good campy fun!

I enjoyed this book in a purely ironic way. I think you will too! The heroine makes bad choice after bad choice so she’s hard to get behind. The best part is the comic-book-type villain at the end. Such campy fun! I found myself laughing out loud on the plane as I was reading it. :) LOL
