Another high-stakes novel from Eason!

It’s been so long since flight paramedic Raina Price has been Brianne. Somewhere still in the world, there is Kevin Anderson, and she knows that’s not his real name. When she sees a national interview of a young, teenage snowboarding sensation, she prepares for her past to finally catch up to her. She’s been training for it all these years, and she’s tired of running. US Marshal Vincent (Vince) Covelli is a tracker (of fugitives) and a protector (of his assignees). When Raina is almost killed, he vows to protect her at all costs, even taking personal time off in order to do so. It is apparent that someone wants Raina gone, and Vince is going to make sure that someone doesn’t succeed.

Eason doesn’t write idly on. Nope, she catapults readers straight into the high-stakes melee of this cat-and-mouse game. As readers discover, it turns into more of a cat-and-cat-and-mouse game. There is tension and danger, little moments of whimsy, solid faith and shaky faith, friendships so strong that they could move mountains and the tentativeness of new love. Eason is a master raconteur of Christian romantic suspense, and I can count on her stories to be riveting and hold my attention from first page to last. This novel features a woman determined to put her traumatic past in the past, while I look forward to a future full of many more stories from Eason!
