I liked Noah and Brooke’s relationship and was desperately trying to figure out just what happened in his past that had him thinking Brooke would not want to make a life with him. He was very protective and caring of Brooke and went to great lengths to keep her safe. I also enjoyed Caleb and Austin’s romance. It was an unexpected bonus to the story and ended up being my favorite of the two. However, I felt like, and I can’t believe I’m saying this, that there was too much focus on the romances. It seemed like the crimes, especially the mass shooting, took a backseat to the developing romances.
I thought for sure this story would end up being a five star read. Sadly, when the middle of the book became more about relationships than solving the crimes it felt too unrealistic to me. It also felt a bit disjointed. I did really like that the characters prayed a lot and depended on God.
