This is my second read by the author and in the series. Yay me, I’ve actually not gone in blind, but this could easily be read as a stand alone. It’s the same world as the other books, but focuses on different characters.
I really like the balance of suspense and romance that leans more towards romance and I liked Owen and Macy. Note. Their flaws make them relatable and real. I was really rooting for them while they followed the clues. I also liked the setting. It was a little like a supporting character.
I really think contemporary suspense fans will love this book.
Synopsis
After a scandal derails her television reporting career, Macey Burns comes looking for a change of pace in Lost Beach, Texas. She’s ready to focus on her first passion—documentary filmmaking—and has a new job working for the island’s tourism board, shooting footage of the idyllic beachside community. Her plans for a relaxing rebound are dashed when she realizes the cottage she’s renting belonged to the woman whose body was just found in the sand dunes.
Detective Owen Breda is under intense pressure to solve this murder. Violent crimes are rising in his small town, and he can’t stand to see anyone else hurt…especially not the beautiful documentarian who keeps showing up at the precinct.
With the clock ticking, cameras rolling, and body count climbing, Macey and Owen must use all their resources to find the killer without getting caught in the crosshairs.
