One Nine + Giveaway

Detective Chase Washington knows Brooke Turner is guilty of murdering her best friend. What he can’t comprehend is how she has managed to elude capture for six months. With Lenora Chambers’ blood calling out to him from the ground, Chase will stop at nothing to find Brooke Turner and bring her to justice.

When he finally tracks her down, nothing is as black and white as Chase thought. Lost in the wild with no way to communicate with the outside world and another possible suspect on their trail, Chase and his prisoner have become the prey in a desperate quest to survive.

Fans of riveting, edge-of-your-seat suspense with clean romance and spiritual truths will love this fast-paced offering.

My Review:

Gotta love an impulse buy. KCRhoades mentioned this book in her comment on Sunday’s discussion. I ordered it on the spot, the book was delivered on Tuesday and read by Wednesday. Great book recommendations make me a happy reader! Thank you, Karen!

I was hooked by the first gripping sentence: “Brooke Turner lay on her back staring up at her fingers, dripping red in the glow of the dying sun.” Grab your defibrillator and settle in for an enthralling suspense with stalker vibes galore and the kind of hair-raising pursuit that takes your breath away.

Brooke is on the run with no real game plan. She knows she’s innocent, she even knows who set her up but proving it is impossible. Meanwhile Chase is on the case and he earned the nickname ‘the Pitbull’ for a reason; he never gives up on an investigation.

The angst ramps up as Brooke battles both Chase’s preconceived ideas and the very real threat toying with them. Add in the wilderness setting for a good portion of the ‘chase’ and, phew, you’ve got a riveting read! Love the drama that plays out in their relationship and the twists with the suspense. It all adds up to making ‘One Nine’ (you’ve got to read the book to understand the title) an unputdownable read.

    We are staying very cold – below freezing – for some time. They are saying like up to 14 inches of snow Friday night into Saturday. And with next week staying well below freezing, it will stay a while. Looks like I may have to cancel next weeks appointment. BRRRR!!!! Everyone is doing the grocery run for supplies – you know milk, bread and toilet paper. LOL

    1. That cover is eye-catching, isn’t it? The silhouette really pops and begs the questions: what is she running away from…or to? I heard a whole slew of states are in for a wintery mix. 14 inches of snow is a lot even when you’re used to getting dumplings of snow! Stay safe and warm inside and read, read, read! Good luck, Kay!

  8. I’m beyond thrilled that you loved it!! It’s one of the best suspense novellas I’ve ever read, and the pacing is perfection. I’ll be reading more of hers—I’ve bought several more since I’ve read this. No need to enter me in the contest, as I already own it. 🥰

  11. Yay, Karen!

    Such an awesome novella that reads like a full novel. Sara is so talented. Her two sparrows for a penny series is gripping. She’s also a lovely person that I’ve gotten to know a little over the last couple of years.
