This week I'm featuring Among the Innocent by Mary Alford. I finally got around to reading this book and I loved it!
As Leah and the new police chief, Dalton Cooper, work long hours struggling to fit the pieces together in order to catch the killer, they can't help but grow closer. When secrets from both of their pasts begin to surface, an unexpected connection between them is revealed. But this is only the beginning. Could it be that the former police chief framed an innocent man to keep the biggest secret of all buried? And what will it mean for Leah--and Dalton--when the full truth comes to light?
USA Today bestselling author Mary Alford keeps you guessing as two determined souls plumb the dark depths of the past in order to forge a brighter future--together.

He hadn't told his story to another soul besides his former lieutenant, Mark Sorenson. Until now. But he and Leah had a lot in common. They'd both suffered much at the hands of a killer. "I should have told you everything sooner."

ReplyDeleteMy book this week is Authentically Izzy by Pepper Basham:
Prologue
Dear readers,
This is a cautionary tale.
A tale of family, literary classics, podiatry, matchmaking, Shakespeare, and distance.
I just started my ARC of this one and am LOVING it! It's so much fun! Happy reading, Paula! :)
DeleteI'm starting the novella collection Targeted, and the first line is from "On the Run" by Lynette Eason: "Daria Nevsky slammed the door of her Ford F-150 truck and tucked her jacket under her chin to ward off the chill of the November wind." Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI really want to read this one! Hope you have a great week too! :)
