Nowhere to Turn

Title:  NOWHERE TO TURN
Author: Lynette Eason
Publisher: Revell
August 2014
ISBN: 978-0800722098
Genre: Romantic Suspense

She thought her days of hiding were over . . . but the danger has just begun

The day Danielle Harding takes her eleven-year-old son and flees from her abusive husband is the same day Kurt Harding dies. A relieved Dani believes she and her son are finally safe--but in reality, things are just heating up. When Kurt was alive, he took something important from a mysterious individual--who wants the item back and believes Dani now has it. As she and her son run for their lives, they have nowhere to turn, until she hires Adam Buchanan of Operation Refuge and goes into hiding. Unfortunately, she won't be able to hide for long . . .

From the first breathless scene, this tension-laced story will hold you in its iron grip as bestselling author Lynette Eason propels you along in a race to discover the truth.

Let me prelude this by saying I love Lynette Eason’s books. She is usually a must-read author for me, and I’ve read every single one of her books. I love them. However, NOWHERE TO TURN just didn’t do it for me. It starts slow, and drags the entire way through the story. Even areas where suspense could’ve been high, dragged.

This is not at all my favorite Lynette Eason book. It is well-written, very clean, and the story does go to start to finish with the poor heroine and her son being moved from safe house to safe house before they have a chance to draw their breath. But the suspense level is blah. The romantic tension level is blah.

Just my opinion. There are others who disagree with me, so maybe it’s just me.

$14.99. $9.99 kindle. 321 pages.
