MY REVIEW

Since I had to wait so long for this book which by the way was so worth the wait I ended up borrowing a copy from Netgalley. Thank goodness for Netgalley!
My first ever Bradley book and I very much enjoyed this book! I really wish that I could give it more than 5 stars.  Her style of writing is astounding! I'm a fan for life.
Lot of action with twists and turns that will keep your interest throughout the book. The plot was awesome! I was holding my breath as each layer kept coming uncovered in this novel. I loved the tension, anxiety, fear all of those things wrapped up into one. The perfect ingredients for a wonderful story. The author does a good job of keeping you guessing until the end on the person who did the dirty deed so to speak.
This is a clean read with Jesus mentioned as the Truth, way and the life and I really liked how the author has added that God has plans for each and every one of us. Which is true. It's only in HIs own time not ours.  It's not preachy not by any means. I thought she did really well in this regards.
My heart went out to Brooke when everything that was happening in Natchez Trace hit close to home.
I know it isn't easy to loose someone who is very close to you. No one deserves that.
I liked this story too because it offers second chances. I think everyone needs a second chance don't you? The Lord certainly does.
I really enjoyed my travels down south even though it was so hot I thought I was going to suffocate. No, really it's  just my imagination running wild. I've never been to this place so I thank the author that I can travel without leaving the comfort of my home. Although I'd love to visit someday.
There are some subjects (marijuana)  that might offend some readers but overall I thought the whole story was nicely done.
I highly recommend this story! Especially for Christian Suspense readers.
I received this book courtesy of Baker Publishing Group/Revell through Interviews & Reviews.
