Lethal Legacy

This is another well written Christian suspense romance story by this talented author. Whether you are new to Murphy, NC or a long time reader, rest assure it’s a stand alone. The story centers around Andrea/Andi Wheaton and Bryce Caldwell. They were sweethearts when they were young but misunderstandings caused a riff. She went back to Atlanta with her family, got married, became success in her job and now divorced and grieving the death of both her parents, returns to the cabin her Dad owned in Murphy to decide what to do with it. Bryce is now a deputy, and has never forgotten her. When danger surrounds her, Bryce is determined to keep her safe. Feelings are resurfacing but neither is willing to to go beyond friendship. It’s full of intrigue, whodunit, and romance. Looking forward to what else this author has in store for us. I voluntarily read this book. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

Carol's books always have a lot of action, character development and a great story line. I know when I read the first chapter that I will be hooked and have a hard time putting the book down! That is certainly the case with this current book! Each book in this series can be read as a standalone because the author doesn't "leave anything undone" in a book that you wouldn't know what was happening from book to book! Bryce is a law enforcement officer in Murphy, NC and his "lost love" was Andrea Wheaton (who was also a neighbor growing up) so imagine his surprise when he sees the lights on at the house where she used to live, one night when he's coming home from getting off duty! He's always kept an eye on the place since her parent live in Atlanta and Andrea (Andi) has long since moved away. He goes over to check it out only to discover that Andi has just been attacked and her parents recently died in a car accident! So the story begins! Things escalate from there with Andi being targeted constantly so they both know something is going on and they work together to find out what that is. It'll keep you turning the pages, I can promise you! Something had happened to break them up when they were teenagers and Andi can't get over that so it's enjoyable to see how they work through that to get back together. Andi has had a LOT of heartbreak in her life and I could certainly identify with her having a hard time trying to make decisions. I heartily recommend this book to anyone! I received this book complimentarily from the author but was under no obligation to provide a review. These opinions are my own.
