BLURB:
Who
killed Judge Shaw Buchanan aka “the hanging judge,” on the day of his wife’s
funeral?
When Harper Buchanan, the
judge’s estranged daughter,
witnesses her father’s murder in the small town of Barley, New Hampshire, she
promises to find his escaped killer. She hires local private investigator, Finn
O’Rourke to track down the shooter. Soon, they are working together, and Harper
finds herself drawn to Finn’s looks, smarts, and self-reliance. But she’s
fallen for the wrong type of man before. She vows not to repeat her mistake and
to keep their relationship professional.
Finn
does his best to deal with their growing chemistry by focusing on the job. But
when someone attempts to kill Harper to prevent her from uncovering the
identity of her father’s murderer, his goal changes. Harper’s protection
becomes Finn’s full-time priority, even though it means risking his life for a
woman who may never love him.

EXCERPT TWO:
With
Ted out of sight, her dad’s anger dropped a level. Had he given up chasing
Johnson? Their driveway came into view. Please turn. Please.
He
snapped the steering wheel to the left. The Audi skidded and then straightened
to soar up the winding gravel drive. Pebbles flew up and thudded against the
tires and the underside of his vehicle. He’d ended his chase. A small measure
of hope eased the ache of terror in her chest.
Her
parents’ home sat at the top of the knoll. Her shoulders throbbed with the pull
of stress as the speedometer pushed fifty and they wound up the thousand-foot
forested hillside.
Harper
closed her eyes and whispered a prayer. The roar of the motor blocked out all
other noises. The iron gate between the stone pillars drew closer and closer.
Why didn’t he slow down and hit the button on the console to unlock the gates?
Maybe
she should call nine-one-one, but that would enrage him too, and what could
emergency responders do in a few seconds?
Ahead,
the metal barrier grew larger. They were going to crash!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I
love a good suspenseful, mystery book and this book did not disappoint!
There
was quite a bit going on in this book, and it definitely kept me entertained to
the very last page!
This
book is about solving the murder case of Judge Shaw Buchanan that his daughter,
Harper Buchanan witnessed. Although they
were estranged she vows to find his killer and bring him to justice. Harper hires Finn O’Rourke, a local private
investigator to help her on the case. It
isn’t long before they’re working long hours together and the chemistry starts
heating up. Although they both try to
keep it professional and not cross any lines.
However, when Harper’s life is in jeopardy Finn makes her his number one
priority no matter if their relationship will always only be a professional
one.
I
really liked the main characters and respected their working
relationship. I think we’ve all had
someone in our professional lives that we’ve been interested in crossing into
our personal lives, but things get messy and from past experience it sometimes
is just easier to not even cross those boundaries. So these characters were definitely easy to
relate to and felt genuine.
I
liked the storyline, and there some great twists and turns that keep you
guessing!
All
in all, I really enjoyed reading this book and would absolutely recommend this
book to all readers as this book offers mystery, suspense, thriller, romance,
intrigue, and so much more!
