Colleen Coble: Break of Day

By Kelly Bridgewater

Annie Pederson’s happily ever after is finally within sight . . . if she can stay alive long enough to grasp it.

Law enforcement officer Annie Pederson’s life has been rocked by tragedy, but things finally seem to be heading in the right direction. Her relationship with the love of her life—who’s also the biological father of her precious daughter—has never been better, and it looks like an engagement ring is in Annie’s future. She’s also slowly building back trust with her sister, Sarah, after a separation that has lasted for decades.

When a man escapes law enforcement custody and Sarah’s safety is suddenly in question, Annie’s personal and professional lives once again merge. Meanwhile, her investigation of hikers who have gone missing in the remote woods of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula puts her in the crosshairs of a deadly game.

Now, Annie is the one being hunted. When she discovers the terrible truth about the men who are stalking her, she realizes that she’s in for the fight of her life if she’s going to redeem the sister she once lost, build the family she dreams of, and keep all those she loves safe.

Return to the beloved town of Rock Harbor in the final installment of the Annie Pederson trilogy by bestselling suspense author Colleen Coble.

 


My Thoughts:

Break of Day by Colleen Coble returns to Rock Harbor and the story saga of Annie Pederson. Since Annie has been the heroine for the previous two books, she felt like an old friend to catch up with. It was nice to see some good things happen to her. Of course, there are struggles that she must overcome. Her sister, Sara, has a commanding role in this story. Nicely developed characters. As for the plot, the climactic moment has been done in Criminal Minds, I believe. I know that I have seen it on one of those crime shows. The concept was not original, but the how the moment ended was different than the television series, and I enjoyed that aspect  of it. It was nicely paced and full of action. I kept flipping through the pages. As for the romance, Annie comes closer to having her happily-ever-after moment. In this plot, Annie’s daughter, Kylie conveniently goes away with some friends for the week. It was nice because Annie needed to focus on her budding relationship and what that means for the future instead of worrying about what would happen to her daughter. Overall, Break of Day by Colleen Coble is a good conclusion to the series, and I wonder what Coble will come up with next.

I received a complimentary copy of Break of Day by Colleen Coble from Thomas Nelson Publishing, but the opinions stated are all my own.

My Rating:  4 out of 5 stars
