Hmmmm this was kind of a mixed bag for me. I liked the concept and the storyline in general. I just felt it was a bit...lost sometimes and I certainly don't mind characters being religious, I just felt that at times the younger children came over as twee and not very childlike with some of the things they said. But not being religious myself that could just be my own bias. 

Tessa has reinvented herself after fleeing her abusive older boyfriend. Now settle in a small town, she lives under the radar. But when she stumbles across the abduction of a young child, she steps in and saves the little one from a horrible fate.

Henry Miller is an FBI agent and widower. He struggles with his career and his young family, relying heavily on family and friends. His latest case becomes deeply personal when a serial child abuser targets his daughter. Now he is left with the perplexing mystery that is Tessa. She is clearly not involved but she IS hiding something and he intends to find out what.

Henry knows she's hiding something, and until she wants to confide in him, all he can do is protect her as she is the lone witness to the attempted kidnapping.

Short, quick-paced read, heavy on Christian faith and a clean Romantic Suspense. There is plenty of action including shootouts, bombs and the like to keep you interested.
