WAYLAID by Jerusha Agen, Reviewed by Rebecca Maney

A Christian Romantic Suspense (Windy City Westons Book 1)
 
REBECCA'S REVIEW
"Panic surged up Spring's throat . . . this is what her life would be like for the rest of her days."

When cyclist Spring Weston survives an horrific hit and run accident, it's not only her long recovery that has her spooked, it is the threatening text messages that she is constantly receiving from an unknown source. When evidence begins to mount that her accident was intentional, criminal in fact, the case is transferred to Sergeant Torin Cotter.

Although the lovely hospital patient isn't saying much, Torin Cotter's well honed instincts alert him to the fact that there is more going on than meets the eye. And interestingly enough, Spring's siblings agree with him. The question is . . . why? Who would have a reason to harm Spring, and why would Spring be reticent to tell him everything that she may or may not realize that she knows? Every detail is crucial to his investigation that suddenly . . . when he least expects it . . . goes off the rails. Now multiple lives are at stake.

Initially flowing along at a comfortable pace, the story speed suddenly accelerates, intertwining coincidences together as a cover up for cleverly concealed acts of evil intentions. Just as important to the characters' survival are matters of the heart, poised to swing effortlessly from life towards death, making the answers to some very hard questions crucial to survival . . .

"If you're so okay with dying, then why are you so afraid of living?"


Readers will immediately be looking forward to book two!

BackCover Blurb:
Someone wants to kill her. She wants the killer to finish the job.

Spring Weston will do anything to rise in the ranks of pro cycling and prove she isn’t the one failure of the five Weston siblings. Anything except cheat. When she learns of doping on her cycling team, she’s determined to uncover the truth. But she can’t if she’s dead.

Sergeant Torin Cotter may not be the hero the public thinks he is, but he recognizes fear when he sees it. When he takes over the investigation of the collision that landed Spring in the hospital, he’s compelled to protect her from whatever danger she’s in, even though he knows he might fail. Again.

Spring’s faith in God isn’t enough to help her face the living nightmare she awakened to after the accident. But neither she nor the handsome sergeant see the greater threat that’s coming until it’s too late.
