Mount Shasta Secrets #2

By Elizabeth Goddard

When her neighbor reports suspicious activity next door Kately Bradley checks it out for her. What she finds is neighbor Beck Goodwin being attacked in his own home. When Katelyn attempts to intervene she finds herself the newest target of an assassin. 

Katelyn knows that Beck is hiding something and that he didn't tell the whole story to the police. The question is why. But all too soon both are busy keeping half a step ahead of someone who seems determined to keep them from ever disclosing what they know. There is just one problem Katelyn doesn't know anything and Beck doesn't want to talk about it. But with both their lives on the line Katelyn wants to know why.

Beck is sure that his late wife's death and his subsequent "investigating" has put him in someone's crosshairs, he just doesn't know whose and why they have decided to target him now. But he knows he doesn't want to put anyone else in danger and that is just what is happening. 

Katelyn doesn't want to drag her family into the mess and ruin her brother's upcoming wedding. Can she help Beck discover the truth and still be her best friend's Maid of Honor in three days? Time and a determined killer are against them...

This is the second book in the Mount Shasta Secrets series and can easily be read as a standalone if you have not read the first book. As a Love Inspired Suspense series, you don't have to be concerned about graphic anything - this is a clean read. The story takes place over just a few days and involves several scenes of peril that understandably are suspenseful. But being a Love Inspired Suspense you can be assured of a satisfying conclusion. Overall I would highly recommend this book to those who like suspense and romance with no blushing involved.

I was provided a complimentary copy of this book with no expectations but that I provide my honest opinion. All thoughts expressed are my own.
