Deadly Intentions by Lisa Harris

The Basics

Title: Deadly Intentions by Lisa Harris

Genre: Christian Romantic Suspense

My Rating: 4/5 Stars

From the Back Cover: Research scientist Caitlyn Lindsey is convinced that someone is taking out her team one by one. First, a friend and research partner was killed in a home invasion. Three months ago, her boss died in a suspicious car accident. Four days ago, another partner supposedly committed suicide. And now Caitlyn herself has miraculously survived a hit-and-run. Afraid for her life with nowhere to turn, she reaches out to one of the victim’s husbands, Detective Josh Solomon.

Though initially skeptical about Caitlyn’s theory, Josh soon realizes that the attack that took his wife’s life was anything but random. Now the two of them must discover the truth about who is after Caitlyn’s team–and what their end game is–before it’s too late.

My Thoughts

Lisa Harris is becoming one of my favorite suspense authors! This story is unique and unpredictable, with the main characters running for their lives while investigating a bioterrorism plot. While Josh is in law enforcement, which is common in the suspense genre, the twist in this book is that he’s not investigating in an official capacity. Instead, he’s a fugitive, not sure who he can trust in his police department. Caitlyn is a strong character: smart, brave, and willing to risk her life to discover the truth and stop a terrorist attack. Although they might seem like an unlikely pair, their individual strengths and skills make them a great team.

This is an action-packed book that grabbed my attention from the first page! If you are a fan of Lynette Eason, Terri Blackstock, or Irene Hannon, I think you’ll enjoy Deadly Intentions.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. Thank you, Revell!
