COLD TRUTH
Want to play a game...
When research chemist Kiera Underwood receives a cryptic phone call about her twin brother, she tries to contact him to no avail. Her twin sense tingles, warning her that something is wrong. When he doesn't return her call, and the manager at Oceanic Labs claims he didn't come into work that day, she heads to Cold Harbor. But when she arrives in town to find the door to her brother's house ajar, she races to the lab to question his fellow employees.
Solve the puzzle and save your brother...
Kiera is not prepared when an attempt is made on her life and Blackwell Tactical operative and former Army Ranger, Cooper Ashcroft delivers her second shock of the day. Someone killed the lab supervisor and stole a biotoxin. The main suspect? Her brother, and Blackwell Tactical has been hired to bring him in. If that wasn't shocking enough, she's suspected of colluding with him. She had nothing to do with the theft or murder, and despite the evidence staring her in the face, she knows that her brother is innocent of all charges. She sets out to prove it, and she's soon the victim of a near abduction, thwarted by Coop. He's faced with the reality that she's telling the truth and someone has likely abducted her brother -- perhaps killed him -- and now Kiera's very life is in danger too.
My Review:
published in 2018
Book Two in the Cold Harbor series
Woohoo!!!! Back in Cold Harbor with this second book in the series and it's just as good as the first one! No surprise with Susan Sleeman as the author. I love the way she builds a team full of heroes and heroines so easy for a reader to love. Camaraderie and friendship -- these Blackwell Tactical professionals work well together and they know how to get things done.
The action scenes are a choreography of perfection. I got such a visual of everything happening that it was like watching a movie. And the suspense -- whoa -- complex and twisty-turny and angst-riddled. Totally riveting stuff. Add in a complicated romance and you've got the perfect reading escape for a discerning armchair sleuth.

DeleteGood luck, Kim!
DeleteSleeman was releasing books in this series intermittently with the shorter White Knights series and I stuck with White Knights, because I couldn't keep up. Lol. And now this series has 7 books! How does she do it, juggling indie, traditionally pub, and Harlequin LI's? I'll just stick with following your lead with this author. It's worked out well, so far. That's how I started the White Knights Series. 😉

Oooohhh -- The White Knights series is awesome, isn't it? The third book should be coming out soon. I don't know how Susan Sleeman keeps churning them out but I aim to stay current on new books while i scramble to catch up with the ones I've missed out on. Good luck, Terrill.
DeleteSounds like a good one!
