Lost Hours by Susan Sleeman

 My review today is on the Christian Romantic Suspense, Lost Hours. This is book one in the series Lost Lake Locators. I'm a huge fan of Susan's and have followed her for years. I am always thrilled when she launches a new story. As an author I am always amazed at how she is able to come up with her ideas. This one is incredible. I love the first chapter and the escape room. What an awesome way to open the story.

Nolan Orr and his team mates are invited to "a killer of an evening." A formal, black tie, event. Who has invited them? An evening in the mansion had to have cost a fortune especially for the whole team. After dinner they were taken into an escape room, decorated with memorabilia from their police academy days. As they figured out the puzzle they find a dead body. He now had to deal with the one woman who broke his heart, the sheriff!

Sheriff Mina Park sat at her desk wishing for something to happen. Lost Lake nearly drove her nuts in the off season. She mind drifted to her lost love. He had left without a word and broke her heart. She had to stop thinking about him. She then received a call. A murder and Nolan's team was the main suspects. They had been set up to take the fall. They didn't do it. Could she work with him after their shared past?

An exciting journey to find a killer before he finds them. God has a plan for these two brokenhearted souls, a plan for hope and a future. God has a plan for you too, a plan for peace and not for harm. Give Him your heart and watch Him turn your life around.

Storm Warning by Elizabeth Goddard

 My review today is on the Christian Romantic Suspense, Storm Warning. This is the first book in the series Hidden Bay. I'm a huge fan of Elizabeth's books, I am so honored to be a part of her launch team. This is an incredible book. As an author I often wonder how she is able to keep coming up with new ideas. So many authors just write the same books with different characters and at different locations. Not so with Elizabeth. I know you are going to love this one.

Former Army Photographer Remi Grant now manages a lodge on Hidden Bay. She came to heal after waking up in a hospital with no memories of the last week. It's storm season so the lodge is full. She is rescued from the storm by a helicopter pilot. She receives puzzle pieces telling her she must remember before it's to late. There are attacks on her and her hero. Can she force herself to remember?

Ex-Army pilot Hawk Beckett is sent to the lodge by his ex boss. He had a catastrophic event and has come to heal and start over. He rescues Remi and is drawn to her.  They are are in the middle of the worst storm to hit the coast. Things keep happening, he must keep her safe and help her get her memory back. 

A horrendous journey as they try to figure out what it is she has forgotten. God has a plan for these two, a plan for hope and a future. God has a plan for you too. A good plan for peace and not for harm. Give Him your heart and watch Him direct your path.
