Welcome to the Takeover + Review Blitz for The Shifting Current by Dani Pettrey, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!

MY REVIEW:

In previous books of the Coastal Guardian series by Dani Pettrey members of the Coast Guard Investigative Service have focused on solving cases near their base on the North Carolina coast. In The Shifting Current, team members Logan Perry and Emmy Thornton travel to Logan’s home town in New Mexico after he receives word that the grandfather who raised him has been murdered.

Logan is conflicted about having Emmy along because he is in love with her but has no hope for a future together due to the secrets he hides. Nevertheless he knows Emmy’s investigative skills are what he needs to help solve Colt’s murder.

As I have come to expect from any book by this author, the action begins quickly and the pace rarely lags before the final pages. Plenty of conflict, suspense, mystery, and romance are in store for readers. Secrets have a way of coming out and Emmy’s reaction was not what Logan expected. Could she handle those secrets or were they a deal breaker? Would they even survive to find out?

Enjoyed this final book of the Coastal Guardian series even though as a novella it ended much too quickly. I highly recommend it as well as the entire series.

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book provided by JustReads Publicity. A favorable review was not required. All views expressed are my own.

ABOUT THE BOOK:

Title: The Shifting Current
Series: Coastal Guardians novella
Author: Dani Pettrey
Publisher: Gracie & Johnny Inc.
Release Date: May 2, 2023
Genre: Christian Romantic Suspense

An elusive killer. A false identity. A deadly maze of lies.

When Coast Guard Investigative Service Special Agent LOGAN PERRY’s beloved grandfather is murdered, Logan races to his hometown of Cauldron Creek, New Mexico to investigate the murder. His teammate and friend, EMMY THORTON, insists on joining him. Not a good idea—not when he loves her, but carries a secret that he knows will tear them apart.

Emmy knows Logan will pursue the investigation no matter the cost, and she won’t let the man she loves plunge into a dangerous situation alone. She needs to be at his side, even if he believes friendship is her only reason for joining him.

What looks like a robbery gone wrong rapidly shifts, drawing Emmy and Logan into a dizzying maze where nothing is as it appears. Every lead slips through their fingers as threats against them grow deadlier at each turn. Having only each other to rely on, their love for one another deepens, but will they live long enough to admit their attraction to each other?

They’re in the killer’s sights. One wrong move puts their future together and their lives on the line.
