Danger in Destiny Boxed Set: Books 1-3
This is a boxed set containing the first three full books in the Danger in Destiny Series.
Out of the Ashes - Book 1
He thought it was just a structure fire.
As a firefighter, Bryce Keyes is no stranger when it comes to running into a burning building. What he didn't expect was coming face-to-face with the woman he loved years ago. Getting her out safely is one thing, but when it looks like she was the arsonist's target, Bryce realizes he can't just let her walk away again. Especially not while her life is in danger.
She's desperate to escape.
For Megan Bristow, returning to Destiny, Texas was about saying a final goodbye to a dysfunctional family and the memories she's tried hard to bury. She planned to go in, help her mother tie up loose ends, and get out again. When someone makes an attempt on her life, Megan realizes those loose ends are only the beginning of a tangled web, and she's been drawn right into the center of it.
They'll have to put the past behind them.
Only by working together will they be able to figure out who's hunting her and why - before it's too late.
Frozen in Book 2
Her routine night turns terrifying.
As the storm of the century howls through Destiny, Texas, Dr. Paige Wade remains at her clinic to care for any animals that might need assistance. Her quiet night is disrupted when a man dumps an injured dog on the doorstep just hours before Paige is attacked in the parking lot.
He's uncovering deadly connections.
A call from the local animal hospital where his friend works sends Police Officer Gabe Harrison hastening to respond. The crime seems random until someone starts stalking Paige. When Gabe and his K-9 partner, Loki, discover the man who dropped off the injured dog is now a murder victim, Gabe uncovers a link between the deceased and whoever is threatening Paige.
They are running out of time.
For years, Paige has ignored her feelings for Gabe. Working closely with him means gambling with her heart. As another winter storm approaches and the murderer becomes desperate, will the risks they take not only save her life, but give them hope for a future together?
Beneath the Book 3
He's determined to catch a serial killer.
Detective John Paris investigates a murder, troubled by the possibility it was committed by a serial killer. The case takes a frightening turn when the murderer intentionally draws the beautiful medical examiner, Genevieve "Eve" Marks, right into the middle of it all.
She refuses to hide.
A routine callout to a crime scene leads Eve to work side-by-side with the detective she's long admired. Resolved to uncovering the connection between the crimes and bringing the truth to light, she refuses to step away, even when danger comes to her door. As she and John work together to unravel a mystery buried in the past, a bond forms between them that gives her hope for the future.
A killer grows desperate.
John will protect Eve with his life, but time is running out. Is the serial killer a copycat, or is this murder related to a decade-old case that was never solved?

Out of the Ashes - Bryce and Megan have a history that might turn into a future. She ran away once but will she stay this time? I love a romantic suspense storyline. This one had just the right balance. The mystery kept me guessing. Love how this author writes.
Frozen in Jeopardy - I love this series! Paige and Gabe have been friends for years. She friend zoned him back in high school but that didn't stop them from having feelings for each other. A romantic, mystery suspense filled story that kept me on the edge of my seat. A different kind of love story as these two already know each other so well but get to spend time together under tense circumstances. I believe they are a perfect fit for each other. There was an added bonus of Loki and Lucy who made the story even better - you have to read to find out who they are. One amazing ending.
Beneath the Surface - Eve receives a gift that connects to a horrific event in her past. Love how well she and John work together. Talk about solving a mystery. Lots of twists, turns, and secrets uncovered. I don't know how the author does it, but she is a master at bringing romance to couples in the midst of crime solving. Great series.

I love the Danger in Destiny books - they are the perfect blend of faith, romance and suspense. I have read each one in one sitting as they have been released.
In Out of the Ashes the suspense begins on page one and is not resolved until the very end of this well written book.
In Frozen in Jeopardy long time friends Paige and Gabe find themselves in the center of a fierce winter storm trying to save the life of Loki, Gabe's canine partner. Meanwhile a vicious gang wants to free their member Gabe has captured and will stop at literally nothing to get what they want.
Beneath the Surface is an interestingly twisted mystery. I think it was nearly 4 am when I finished reading because I had to know how it ended!

okay
Clean stories, but by the time I got through a little of the third book I gave up because although the story would be different,the ending was obvious , as it was in the first two books. It just didn’t grip me at all, typical of this genre, read the same plot in many varieties. I got this set free, I wouldn’t pay for these books.

A good set
I like how she keeps you on edge, always trying to figure out who and why, right until the end. I really appreciate the clean read, where prayer is part of how they deal with things. Enjoy how they are truly like an extended family to each other. A good series to follow up on.

Destiny under control
Three incredible stories that are totally different and equally entertaining. Lives and friends woven together yet each stands alone. Enjoy for yourself.
