My review: Explosive Alliance by Susan Sleeman (First Responders #2)
4 STARS
Good suspense, mystery, Christian with a touch of romance. I like that there are a few strong female characters. Has some twists I was not expecting but liked. The message to trust God to help you through the tough times.
Krista Curry does not trust police but she goes to them to try and stop a bomber and save lives. She is a widow who is going by a different name. She teaches preschool.
Otto is her grandfather and is fighting cancer. He is enjoying being at a game.
Cash Dixon is working the game for a friend. He just happens to be a explosive expert. He is bored and notices Krista and flirts with her.
When Krista sees someone walk away from his backpack and she tries to let him know he forgot it. He does not come back for it so she opens it and sees a bomb. She wants to yell but knows panicking the crowd is dangerous she remembers the Cash the cop not far away and goes gets him help.
Krista knows they will blame her and if they find out that the police think she murdered her husband Tobi.
The setting was Portland Oregon area.
I like reading Susan Sleeman's books. They keep it exciting, clean and fast paced.
I was given this ebook by Net Galley and Harlequin. In return I agreed to give honest review of Explosive Alliance.
