Book Spotlight Fridays! Two Reasons to Run

 

Book Beginnings and Friday56


Book Beginnings is a weekly meme hosted by Rose City Reader that asks you to share the first sentence (or so) of the book you're reading. Friday 56 is hosted by Freda's Voice and asks you to grab a book (any book), turn to page 56 or 56% in your e-reader and share a non-spoiler sentence or two.

Finally I'm getting back to this series! This is a series best read in order.


Two Reasons To Run






About the book:

Lies have rocked Jane Hardy’s world. And now that her son is being targeted, she’s got at least two reasons to run.

Jane Hardy’s life has been utterly disrupted. Almost immediately after taking over as Chief of Police for Pelican Harbor, her department was rocked by scandal. For the first time in her adult life, Jane thought she was falling in love . . . until she discovered that Reid Bechtol had been hiding the truth about who he really was. And if that wasn’t enough, she learned that her father had been lying to her for the last fifteen years and that her son wasn’t really dead.

The silver lining is that her son, Will, is back in her life and she’s building a relationship with him for the first time.

When Reid embarks on filming a new documentary about the oil platforms in Mobile Bay, someone begins threatening Will to get Reid to stop his investigation. His informant’s body is found lashed to one of the supports under the platform, and Jane has to help Reid find out who is targeting him if she wants to make sure her son survives as well.

His deception and the current danger give Jane plenty of reasons to run from Reid. But are there more reasons to stay?

Was anyone watching?

Friday 56

Jane waited until they were all seated, then took out her notepad.  "Are you aware Keith McDonald feared a terrorist attack on the oil platform?"  Might as well go for shock value and see what happened.

My thoughts so far

Colleen Coble knows how to win a reader's attention with her opening scenes. Looking forward to continuing this one over the weekend.
