Book Review: Deadly Devotion

 

ISBN 9780800722227

Kate knows the truth is out there--but if she's right, that means a killer is out there too.
Research scientists Kate Adams and Daisy Leacock were on the brink of a breakthrough for treating depression with herbal medicine when Daisy was suddenly found dead. Kate knows that her mentor's death wasn't suicide or a careless accident--and she's determined to do whatever it takes to unearth the truth about what happened to the woman who changed her life.

Former FBI agent Tom Parker is finding it hard to adjust to life back in his hometown of Port Aster. Though an old buddy gave him a job as a detective on the local police force, not everyone approves. Tom's just trying to keep a low profile, so when Kate Adams demands he reopen the investigation into her friend's death, he knows his job is at stake. But despite his attraction to her, Tom thinks Kate may have something to hide.

As evidence mounts, a web of intrigue is woven around the sleepy town of Port Aster. Can Kate uncover the truth? Or will Tom stand in her way?

My Reflections:

I am a nut for a good romance/suspense type thriller. The type of book that gives just a hint of spine tingling mystery, and then some romance — without the gore and creepy parts that may keep me up at night! This book was a perfect fit.

Sandra Orchard is my kind of writer she is smart, Canadian and was a home schooling mama! Did I mention she is Canadian? I love local talent!

I have not had the pleasure of reading a book by this author so I was pleasantly surprised. I will be marking this author on my must read list.

This book’s plot was full of mystery and suspense from page one. I thought I had the story line pegged and it turned out I was completely wrong, I love when a story is not predictable, this one was certainly not!
The end of the book wraps up the story line neatly into a pretty little package, making everything come together perfectly..of course there is that little bit of a teaser. I can't wait for book two!

If your searching for a good romance suspense, pick this one up you will not be disappointed!
