My Thoughts on Girl Lost by Kate Angelo

 

About:

Luna Rosati found acceptance and comfort with her childhood foster family, but when she became pregnant at sixteen, she gave the baby up for adoption and left without a word. Now a CIA counterintelligence officer, Luna wants to reconcile her fractured sense of self by finding the only blood family she has--the teenage daughter she's never met. As Luna closes in on learning the girl's identity with the help of her mentor, Stryker, she prepares to meet him in her old neighborhood--the last place she wants to be. Then Stryker is captured.   

AN INESCAPABLE PAST
Special Agent Corbin King changed his last name to escape the shadow of his convicted father serving a life sentence. When he runs into Luna, the object of his failed teenage romance, the two must put their pasts aside and work together to expose a secret that someone's willing to kill for.

A DEADLY THREAT
But when they encounter a kidnapping, missing bodies, and murder, the secrets Corbin and Luna are keeping from one another are only the beginning of the threat they face with more than their own lives at stake.

My Thoughts:

Girl Lost was such a captive thriller full of suspense and emotional relationships that it kept me coming back to this story. This was a story I looked forward too since I first heard about it, by new to me author Angelo, and I was not disappointed.

From the very beginning we have a story that starts off with a bang. Not only emotionally but with an abduction as well. Why? That is what special agent Corbin King and CIA agent Luna Rosati need to find out. Not only that, but these two have quite a past, one that has left deep scars emotionally on both. A relationship in which they share a daughter, whom Luna is looking for.

There is a family group dynamic here. Kids brought together from troubled backgrounds, and helped out by their shared mentor, Stryker King. Bringing all these once upon a time troubled teens together as adults opens this up to a very interesting series. They were a great set of supporting characters. This one was Luna and Corbin’s story, a story of forgiveness, redemption, and of second chances. I look forward to more in this series and more from this author.

I was provided a copy of this novel by Revell Publishing through Interviews & Reviews. I was not required to post a positive review, and all views and opinions are my own.
