Summary:
As a social worker, Alison Taylor has a passion for protecting children and seeing that justice is served on their behalf. But when she starts getting harassing phone calls and bizarre "gifts," it seems she may be the one in need of protection. When her tormentor's attentions take a violent turn, her brother Cole comes to her aid, along with his new partner, an ex-Navy SEAL, Detective Mitch Morgan. As her relentless stalker turns up the heat, Mitch takes a personal interest in the case. Protecting Alison has become more than just a job--because his own happiness now depends on keeping her safe.
Chock full of nail-biting suspense and heart-melting romance, Deadly Pursuit is Irene Hannon's storytelling at its very best. Fans old and new will not want to miss the next story in this series starring siblings fighting for justice.
My Review:
Deadly Pursuit is second out of a trilogy. I was really excited to have a book primarily about a woman instead of a man.
That being said, Alison Taylor is an excellent female lead. Ms. Hannon has had me hurting for Alison since we were introduced to her in Fatal Judgement.
A year ago, Alison was in a nasty car-wreck leaving her behind with many injuries including a few that wouldn't heal. Something I adored about her was that she didn't let that stop her. She moved on. She thrived at her job and enjoyed the company of her dog Bert, who just can't get any more cute. :-)
Her journey begins going up hill when her older brother Cole calls her up and plays the compassion card to get her to go with his new partner, Mitch Morgan, to a wedding in Mitch's family.
Mitch is the type of guy you don't see in the real world very often. He's a gentleman. He's chivalrous. And he's protective of what's his. (Or wishes to be his.) Making him just the man Alison needs.
Ms. Hannon weaves together (yet again) an exceptional and phenomenal romance/mystery/suspense novel.
