Harlequin books are so fantastic, because they manage to put a whole satisfying story arc into 200 pages, and this book was no different.
There wasn’t much romance, it was definitely more of a B plot and I would’ve liked a bit more of it throughout the story as it kind of just happens all at once at the end. But really, I was so invested in the intrigue part I’m really not broken up by it.

Just a great book. Intrigue and romance in one good book. The cult is an integral part of this book. I wasn’t sure cults are still around much.

It's a good book. It kept my attention. I finished it in less than two days. Could have done a little more back story on a few of the characters, but I still enjoyed it.

Quick easy enjoyable read. I would definitely like to peek in on this family in the future to see how they're doing.

Best book of the series - more action than mystery as you know who are the good vs bad players. I thought the character development for Chris was good and I found the story interesting.
