About the Book:
Four years ago, I was running for my life with my wife and son. Now I have a new face, a new name, and a new home. But I'm raising my child alone.
After losing my wife in a tragic accident, I transferred to the Southern Knights in an attempt to escape a broken heart. I didn't expect to run into someone from my past—the first woman to ever break it.
Faith Conway, my DEA partner before I went undercover to infiltrate a drug cartel in Colombia, made it clear she wouldn't wait for me. She chose her career over love... over me.
Even though she doesn't recognize me now, I remember her—the good with the bad; the love and the heartbreak.
Our reunion is anything but smooth, and working together again is proving to be more difficult than I ever imagined. There's tension and unresolved history between us, yet I can't deny a lingering affection that I fight against. It's a battle I'm not sure I can win.
Still, old instincts kick in when she's kidnapped—and I don't hesitate to step in.
As we work to discover the truth and return safely, we're forced to confront what we left behind.
And what still might be possible.
Together, we face danger, uncover buried secrets, and discover that sometimes starting over means going back to where it all began. To finding faith.
A faith I'd thought I'd lost.
My Review:
The title of the book is a clue to its dual nature. Faith is the name of a lost love so there is the romance aspect. That potential romance means overcoming huge obstacles from the past. But Jaxon is also in need of restoring his own faith in Christ. Love has included a clear gospel message to that end.
The suspenseful plot begins on two fronts. There is a protection job for Faith. Jaxon has another assignment, finding missing women, women related to the wife he lost in an accident. The two plot lines collide when Faith is kidnapped by the very leader of the cartel that also took the women. The action moves to South America and the danger and suspense ramps up.
The rescue mission Jaxon becomes a part of reveals lack of confidence in several of the US government three letter agencies. There has been betrayal before and Jaxon is not sure who he can trust. He suspects treachery between the agencies. Just when we have confidence the rescue effort will succeed, there is a twist that jeopardizes the whole operation.
Love continues to create compelling inspirational romantic suspense adventures. I liked it and was happy to see we are left with a final scene setting us up for another adventure. I'll be watching for it.
My rating: 4/5 stars.
