Books to Watch for…Silenced by Dani Pettrey

Romantic Suspense's Rising Star Returns with an Electric New Thriller

A relaxing day of rock climbing takes a disturbing turn when Kayden McKenna's route leads her face to face with a dead climber. Is it a terrible accident or something sinister? When the case is handed to the overburdened sheriff, he turns to Jake Westin. With Jake's past now revealed, he's ready to use his talent for investigation again--but he could never prepare for where the case will take him.

Kayden and Jake soon realize that the death was no accident. And worse, it seems the killer is on to them. When strange things begin happening in Yancey, Jake is terrified that once again his world may put someone he loves in danger. But the truth is far worse than he could ever imagine.

Stranded by Dani Pettrey~~A Bethany House Book Review

Dani Pettery has become one of my favorite authors, one whose books are read and shared.

Stranded is the third book in the Alaskan Courage series,  Submerged and Shattered are the first two books. As I have read this series I have been drawn into the lives of the McKenna family (Cole, Piper, Gage, Kayden, and Reef) who own and operate Last Frontier Adventures in Yancey, Alaska, and have enjoyed watching them grow in their love for each other and their GOD.

Darcy St. James had once loved being an investigative reporter enjoying the "thrill of the chase". But three years ago she decided that she couldn't continue to compromise her beliefs for a story. That is, until her friend Abby Walsh called and pleaded with her to help her with an investigation. To that end Darcy applied for, and was hired, aboard the cruise ship Bering as their adventure journalist; and when Abby disappears Darcy is determined to find  her.

The McKenna's and their business the Last Frontier Adventures have been contracted by the cruise line to provide excursions for their luxury crowd when the ship stops at their ports of call. Gage McKenna is the excursion teams leader.

Together Gage and Darcy work to find out what has happened to Abby and uncovers an evil plot taking place off the Alaskan coast. So that I won't spoil the story for you I'll stop right here. You'll have to read the book to find out how Dani Pettrey expertly brings Stranded to its exciting conclusion.

Once again Dani Pettrey has created a story that came alive in the "theatre of my mind". I have come to love Yancy, Alaska and the McKenna family and look forward to the next book in this series where I think Kayden and Jake's story will take center stage.

About the Book:

When Her Friend Goes Missing,
Every Minute Counts

Darcy St. James returns to Alaska to join a journalist friend undercover on the trail of a big story. But when Darcy arrives, she finds her friend has disappeared. Troubled by the cruise ship's vague explanation, Darcy uses her cover as a travel reporter to investigate further.

The last person Gage McKenna expects to see during his summer aboard a cruise ship leading adventure excursions is Darcy. And in typical Darcy fashion, she's digging up more trouble.

He'd love to just forget her--but something won't let him. And he can't help but worry about her as they are heading into more remote regions of Alaska and eventually into foreign waters. Something sinister is going on, and the deeper they push, the more Gage fears they've only discovered the tip of the iceberg.

My Review:

Wow! Dani Pettery took me on another page-turning adventure that was filled will plenty of twists and turns, that left me breathless straight through to the last page. I love the McKenna family; their strong love for each other is apparent as they work together to help their youngest brother, Reef. Piper and Landon get the spotlight in this story, but the secondary characters are strongly developed as well, and they are waiting in the wings for their turn to take the featured lead.

The mystery/suspense is one that Angela Lansbury’s Murder She Wrote character Jessica Fletcher would love to sink her teeth into. Add layers of romance and you have a nail-biting, toe-curling emotional rollercoaster ride that is sure to satisfy.

Shattered is the exciting sequel to Submerged which was the first book in the Alaskan Courage series, but it does very well as a stand alone.

Dani’s third book in the Alaskan Courage series, Stranded will be available in September 2013, and I, as always am looking forward to reading it.

About the Books:

With All the Evidence Against Him, Only a Sister's Trust Can Save Him Now

When her prodigal brother Reef's return to Yancey, Alaska, is shattered by his arrest for murder, Piper McKenna is determined to protect him.

Deputy Landon Grainger loves the McKennas like family, but he's also sworn to find the truth. And he knows those closest to you have the power to deceive you the most. With his sheriff pushing for a quick conviction, some unexpected leads complicate the investigation, and pursuing the truth puts Landon's career in jeopardy.

When Piper launches her own investigation, Landon realizes he must protect her from herself-and whatever complications await as the two follow clues deep into Canada's rugged backcountry. Not only does their long friendship seem to be turning into something more, but this dangerous case is becoming deadlier with each step.
