Taken

GIVEAWAY

HARRIS, LISA
TAKEN

Kate Elliot's suburban life turns upside down when her sister is shot and her niece kidnapped. Unsure of whom to trust, she turns to FBI agent Marcus O'Brian. But Kate doesn't want to leave the case to the authorities. Against the handsome agent's orders, she tracks her niece to Paris, and the City of Light quickly becomes a city of danger. Marcus can't explain why he feels such a strong connection with the headstrong woman, but soon he's taking on the role of Kate's protector. Yet when the kidnappers demand a ransom Kate can't deliver, he's not sure how much longer he can keep her alive. Now Marcus has the next twenty-four hours to save a stolen child and the woman he's grown to love.

My Review:

Love Inspired Suspense is breaking out of the box and taking its readers to Paris! The exotic locale adds a whole new dimension to this page-turning suspense. Somehow, Harris manages to create that Parisian ambiance without taking away from either the suspense or romance. In fact, it only serves to enhance both. Loved every word of this fast-paced novel. Lurking danger, appalling circumstances and a protective FBI agent all conspire to send Kate's well-ordered life into a tailspin that leaves her (and subsequently the reader) breathless. A wonderful meshing of intrigue and romance.

    1. I do too...will be reviewing Hidden Agenda next week as a matter of fact. I think this is her first Love Inspired Suspense and oh my goodness, but it's smooth and chunky all at the same time...reader bliss. (that's a peanut butter lover's reference, by the way.) Good luck, Britney.
