review 1: Mitch Turner has been very careful for years, living under the radar. He pays cash for everything, requests cash under the table for odd jobs, and doesn't stay very long in one place. His daughter Julia yearns for a home, a dog; some stability. It breaks his heart he cannot give it to her, but he dare not risk it.When Mitch jumped in a river to rescue a jumping teenager, he doesn't know what compelled him. It's always been his motto of not getting involved, staying under the radar. But saving that girl tagged him a local hero, and unfortunately for him, his paper in the big city papers. Julia begs him to let them stay in the town awhile, and he promises her until Christmas. He gets a job at a local diner and things seem to be going along nicely, until a killer makes ... morehis presence known in town.All clues point toward Mitch, and he's arrested. Julie is ripped from his arms, and he will do anything to find her and keep her back. Neesy Brown, a curvy and feisty waitress, that works at the diner, wants to help Mitch. He cannot afford to fall for her, but he will take any help he can get. Neesy always seems to fall for the bad guys, and even though he is suspected of murder, she can't help herself. Just something about her draws her and she convinces herself that he is a good man. The two could see a future together, including Julia, if they can outsmart the killer and find Mitch's daughter before it's too late.Annie Solomon is a master at her craft. The tension is on point from the very beginning, and the suspense builds and builds throughout, until a shocking and riveting climax. Romantic Suspense lovers will enjoy this deftly blended novel of desire, intrigue, and danger.
review 2: I'm hooked - new to me author and I'll definitely be reading more from her. Life on the run isn’t easy but Mitch has tried his best to give his daughter Julia all that she needs; and sometimes an eleven year old just needs a place to call home. When Mitch and Julia find themselves in the small town of Crossroads events conspire to keep them there. Julia couldn’t be happier, it’s Mitch who’s torn between giving Julia what she wants and high tailing it out of town before the law can catch up to him.I found myself fascinated by this book, trying to figure out why Mitch was on the run and how he would ever clear his name. Mitch is a character that is painted with clean, clear brushstrokes. You get a sense of him not only as a man who has learned to look over his shoulder, but how everything he does, every breath he takes is about keeping Julia safe, cared for and loved. The villain is super villainous and where Mitch is painted with a certain delicacy, the villain Dutch is painted with broad and massive strokes. I liked Ms. Solmon's voice and her ability to create tension without sacrificing the nuances of each character. A good romantic suspense with interesting characters. less
