To Purchase

About

They're running from their pasts into an unknown future. 

But first, they'll have to survive the present.

Nurse Pecca Gallegos moved to the tiny town of Walton, Georgia, to protect her son and escape the dangerous lifestyle that once defined her. When a series of strange circumstances evolves into threats, Pecca finds herself confiding in an unlikely ally--her stubborn patient.

Army veteran Colton Crawford is desperate to recover from the disorder that is ruining his life, and his instincts are on high alert when threats against his nurse and her son force him to take action. But Colton's involvement only ramps up the danger when he uncovers a family secret revealing that whoever is after Pecca is closer--and more deadly--than they realized.

Welcome back to Walton, Georgia, where everyone knows your name--but no one knows your secret.

My Thoughts:

This is definitely one of my favorite suspense series. While I haven't had the pleasure of reading the first book, I enjoyed the Captain America references of book two that led to the Incredible Hulk references in the conclusion of the series. 

Pecca is running from her past along with her eight year-old son who forms a bond with her most recent patient, a veteran dealing with an abnormal handicap. But there is someone hunting Pecca- and his family will be killed if he doesn't bring her in to a mysterious bad guy.

Pecca and Colton have great chemistry, with her being so upbeat and sweet all the time, and him trying to be less grumpy. And all the veterans in the D-wing were competing to be my favorite with their constant banter. I even liked the poor bad guy minion who has come to the point Pecca has run so hard to escape: having to choose between losing his family or betraying an innocent. A great addition to the romantic suspense genre. 

I received a copy of this novel from the publisher. I was not required to post a positive review and all views and opinions are my own.
