Reporter Delaney Chance is used to secrets and uncovering the truth. It’s her job. When secrets surrounding her mother’s death get in the way, she’ll stop at nothing short of murder to see that the truth is revealed and the killer is brought to his knees. Clues lead her on a dark and deadly path where her past is chasing her, her informants are dying, and the truth is sequestered away for her to find. Encountering more than she bargained for is predictable. She’s lived her entire life being taught to expect the unexpected. When a handsome stranger stands in the way of the answers she needs, she’ll do whatever is necessary to get exactly what she’s after.
John Bennett is a man ruled by his dreams, dreams that have eerily predicted trouble in his life and for those he loves. For years they have centered on his family and he’s learned to accept them as part of his family’s unusual DNA. He’s had one goal his entire life—a job with the FBI. When his dreams turn into nightmares, he’s left with little choice. His life on hold, he must help the stranger on the run, doing everything in his power to help her on her quest.
They’ll have to work together to get rid of her threat. When passions heat up and tempers flare, while searching for the truth, it’s a race to see who crosses the finish line with their heart left intact.
I write the kind of books that make you check your locks before bed and leave the lights on just in case.
I'm Kate Allenton, an author who lives in the space where paranormal suspense, supernatural thrillers, and edge of your seat crime fiction collide. My stories range from psychics and reapers in small towns that look perfectly normal until they absolutely aren't, to gripping FBI thrillers where the monsters are all too human.
You'll find me writing the Lost Souls Society series, where death is just the beginning of the mystery, and the Psychic Oversight series, where seeing the future doesn't always mean you can change it.
With over 80 books published, I've spent more than a decade perfecting the art of the cliffhanger ending and the 2 AM "just one more chapter" problem.
To not confuse anyone else, the story is about John Bennett (son of Abby & Sam whose story is told in Touch of Fate: Bennett Sister Series Book two). I have to presume it is about seven years after book five has finished.
John Bennett has always wanted to follow in his father's footsteps to become an FBI Agent. He has scored top in his class but rejected a position because of the woman who has plagued his dreams.
Meet Delaney Chance, a strong willed woman with a colorful past. She doesn't like the idea of leaning on John for help but he has something she wants and is willing to stick around until she gets her hands on this item. However, the more time she spends with him, the more she falls with him.
Together they take on Ritchie Jessup, a violent criminal threatening Delaney for evidence she doesn't have but is trying to locate. Only Delaney is not willing to hand it over, instead she wants to hand over the evidence to the police so he could be convicted. But Ritchie is not a man to be messed with and together they are thrown into many unexpected situations.
Throw the Bennett clan into the fold and you got yourself a very good read!
I have enjoyed all the books in this series, and this one was no different. John is all grown up and ready for his own story. I love the confident man he turned out to be. Delaney is a perfect match for him with tons of confidence of her own. All the usual crazy Bennett family gifts make an appearance with the addition of one new one. I really enjoyed it and look forward to more.
Most people probably read these books as they came out. The problem with reading an entire series all at once is the gaps in the story stand out. This one takes place a number of years after book 5, I'm guessing approximately 10 years later, though it wasn't stated outright. There aren't too many gaps in the storyline, but the ones that are there are somewhat important I think...
