This is book two in the Jeopardy Falls series. I am enjoying this series, so I am hopeful there will be more adventures for Riley, Greyson, Deckard, and Christian.
There was a random knock on Riley’s door and all she found
was a key. The question was who left the key and what did it go to? Of course,
chasing after the answers Riley found herself working closer than ever with
Greyson (Grey) and had to bury her true feelings for the man. Grey, in turn,
had to bury his feelings for Riley which was near impossible when she would sit
or stand close to him. Deckard and Christian (Riley’s brothers) were clueless
as to what was happening between Grey and Riley.
Kelly and Jared – what had they gotten themselves mixed up
in? And why did they do what they did?
All these questions led Grey and Riley down a path to a
spa/retreat not knowing what they would find, or if they would find Kelly and
Jared.
This is the kind of romantic suspense I like to read. There
is just enough unspoken attraction between Riley and Grey to keep me
interested, but it doesn’t go overboard. A few shared kisses and some honest
communication between them, even in the midst of their investigation. I liked
the fact that Riley had to face some of her childhood memories and be stronger
than the memories, facing them head on, never abandoning the case she was
working on. I liked the fact that both Riley and Grey would call upon their
faith in the midst of their troubles, hoping through that faith they would both
find the inner answers they needed.
There is a certain vulnerability to Grey that I found
relatable. He was afraid to pursue a relationship because of some of his own
inner turmoil. It made him vulnerable to admit to Riley how he was feeling,
what he was thinking. To me, this makes him an attractive character.
To be honest, I was more caught up with Riley and Grey’s
relationship than the actual investigation they were working on.
And that ending? I know there HAS to be more to this series.
