Detective James Cross has
been honorably discharged from the Army Criminal Investigation Division due to
wounds sustained when an IED blew up near him. Now with the Lake City Police
Department, he's rooming with this good buddy and partner, Cole, while he
figures out his family dynamics.
Physician Assistant Lainie Jackson is eighteen months out from an attempted
murder perpetrated by her ex, which ended when she managed to grab the weapon
and shoot him. When he appears to have survived and is back to finish the job
he started, Lainie insists it's not possible. But someone keeps trying to kill
her, and she keeps seeing his face.
Together, Lainie and James must work together to find out who, exactly, is
after her and why he wants her dead. And failure is not an option.
USA Today bestselling author
Lynette Eason will leave you breathless with this fast-paced first book in a
brand-new series.
My Thoughts:
Double Take
by Lynette Eason is an appropriate title for this story. Readers will
understand why as they dive into the plot. The plot has many different woven
parts that confuse Lainie and Adam’s family. Luckily, filled with determination
and grit, Laine and James, the hero, worked really hard together to try to
uncover the different threads and come up with a conclusion to solve the case.
Eason does a wonderful job of keeping the readers guessing until the climactic
moment at the end. As for the romance, Lainie and James grew up together, but
Lainie was the sister’s best friend, so the sparks may have been one-sided at
one time, but now, they might blossom into something else. Definitely something
I hope will continue in the future stories in this series. Eason also includes
the importance of family in the plot. Eason does a wonderful job at crafting
memorable characters that readers will want to stick with and root for as the
horrible occurrences rain down all around them. Overall, Double Take by
Lynette Eason is a wonderful thrill ride with deep characters and a twist
enough to the plot to make readers question the villain’s identity.
I received a complimentary copy of Double
Take by Lynette Eason from Revell Publishing, but the opinions stated are
all my own.
My Rating:
4 out of 5 stars
