Book Blurb
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.
My Thoughts
Double Take kept me up late. I could not put this book down to save my life. From the beginning I couldn’t wait to see how Lynette Eason would wrap everything up. And she throws plenty of twists and turns your way to keep you guessing.
I also loved seeing James and Lainie’s relationship develop. It was a bit of a slow burn but totally worth it! There’s also some great discussions about God and having a relationship with Him.
The supporting characters are great too, and there’s a nice tease for the next book. I cannot wait for it to release!
Overall, Double Take is a gripping suspense with a sweet romance and plenty of action.
