Back Cover Description:

"Follow the drugs." Her sister's last words shake FBI agent Heather Sloan to the core. They also convince her that the helicopter crash only Heather survived wasn't an accident. Sheriff's deputy Jeremy Latham is assigned to the case-he's the one who can help Heather find the person responsible...once she convinces him they should work together. As they dig for the truth, they learn to trust and care for each other. Will they lose it all when the killer targets Heather? She's willing to risk her life to find her sister's killer-but her code of justice could cost her the chance to win Jeremy's love.

Review:

If you enjoy mystery, action, and romance and need an afternoon's diversion, then this may be the book for you. Short, poignant, and direct-this book follows Heather and Jeremy as they attempt to solve the mystery of the helicopter crash that killed Heather's sister, Kit, all in the name of justice...but could that possibly be bordering on revenge? With just enough prayer and mention of God to classify it as a Christian book, I feel it could have gone a bit more in depth on a few different levels (more detail in the story itself and in spiritual aspects). But overall, a good read-especially if you need a fast paced book to fill some time.
