My Thoughts:

This story when it begins is already in mid action. The danger has already begun, and marine Jake Fisher wants to go after the people who just tried to kill him and his 18-month-old niece. Police sergeant Daria Gordon happens on to the scene and is surprised to see her childhood friend Jake back in town. They don't really get a lot of time to catch up in a normal way, as they and the baby are trying to survive the multiple attacks on them.

The attempts on his and Emma's life only proves to Jake that his sister and husband's accident was murder. What had his sister stumbled upon at the bank where she worked? And how are they always found by the murderers? This marine is having a hard time letting Daria take point on this. He should be the protector; he is the marine. But now he has Emma he must look after too.

This was an intense read as it seemed no place was safe, they were dealing with frigid temperatures, and they had a baby in tow. And those who were after them were intent on ending their lives. Plus, if they survive, do Jake and Daria have a chance at something more?

More from Loretta

One of the fun parts I enjoyed writing in The Marine’s Deadly Reunion is the interaction between US Marine, Jake Fisher, and his eighteen-month-old niece, Emma. He knows nothing about caring for a baby. He thinks if he isn’t hungry, Emma isn’t either. During one scene, he glances at her in the rearview mirror. She had tossed everything out of her diaper bag and found her juice cup. He grins, thinking this little human is self-sufficient and they’ll get along just fine.
