A Secret to Die For

This one's fast-paced for sure! It kept me on the edge of my seat and wondering what would happen to Grace while the bad guys were trying to get what they think she has. I wasn't feeling great the day I read it, so I probably need to reread it to recall some details, but it kept my attention on a day with a bad headache and helped pass the afternoon.

Anyway, so it turns out that Grace may have run across some folks who want to take down the power grid. I enjoy running across suspense books that have diverse crimes, and this one was definitely a unique motivation. The romance did move fast, but as the two had known each other in the past I didn't find it hard to believe.

I definitely enjoyed all the faith content. It's worked in organically and is part of the characterization rather than being preachy.

Thanks the publisher for a free copy. A favorable review was not required.
