EMS helicopter pilot Penny Carlton is used to high stress situations, but being forced to land on a mountain in a raging storm with a critical patient--and a serial killer on the loose--tests her skills and her nerve to the limit. She survives with FBI Special Agent Holt Satterfield's help. But she's not out of the woods yet.
In the ensuing days, Penny finds herself under attack. And when news reaches Holt that he may not have gotten his man after all, it will take all he and Penny have to catch a killer--before he catches one of them.

My Perspective
Oh my goodness, this book was a roller coaster of a read, and I enjoyed every single part of it. There was action, suspense, romance, swoony hero moments, amazing heroine acts, danger, excitement, faith and so much more. I cannot even put into words how amazing the first book in this new series from Lynette Eason was.
Let’s talk about Eason’s strong heroine. Penny was just so calm and collected during the most anxious moments of the book and I have to say, I appreciate Eason writing her character this way. A lot of times you don’t see heroines act this way – they are often questioning themselves, too fearful, or waiting for the guy to save the day. I love seeing strong women in stories – I mean they are out there in real life after all, why not write about them!? But Penny also had her vulnerable moments, which really made her a well rounded character. One you could connect with, empathize with, and maybe strive to be like a little bit.
And Holt? Well……swoony alert here girls. He is hardcore – protective, fierce, and strong while also loyal, caring and sweet. He has his own vulnerabilities, which Eason perfectly brings into the story. But it’s his strength and protectiveness that really impress me.
The action and suspense is non stop. There’s a couple of creepy times too, but I’m good with that. The intensity is high, so I recommend leaving a big chunk of time to read once you get started. You are not going to want to put it down, trust me. I am eagerly waiting for book two, and will be stalking Eason’s website and social media for any glimpse I can of it.
Suspense fans are going to love this new series by Eason! I highly recommend. I received a complimentary copy of this book. I was not required to write a favorable review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
