Alaskan Family Ties
Some secrets are worth risking everything to uncover…
Award-winning journalist Nalani Price has never stopped searching for the truth about her birth parents. When her foster brother vanishes after claiming he found a lead, she races to Alaska—determined to find him and uncover the past that has always haunted her. But her investigation quickly entangles her in something far more dangerous than she imagined.
Special Agent Davin Schulz is leading a high-stakes hunt for a missing undercover operative tied to a looming terrorist attack. The last thing he needs is an investigative reporter interfering with his case. Skeptical of Nalani’s story but unable to ignore the attempts on her life, Davin keeps her close, convinced she knows more than she realizes.
As peril closes in from every side, Nalani and Davin are thrust into an uneasy alliance. Each step closer to the truth unearths shocking secrets about Nalani’s family—and a chilling connection to the very plot Davin is trying to stop. With time running out, they must unravel the deadly puzzle before the terrorists strike. Because if they fail, the price won’t just be the past Nalani has longed to uncover, but the lives of countless innocents—and the fragile hope of a future together.

If you didn't get a chance to read this story when it was in the Justice anthology, you still have this opportunity to read it as a standalone. Nalani Price has went to Alaska to find her brother, Paul. As soon as she gets to his cabin a man attacks her, but runs away when they hear a car outside. Special Agent Davin Schulz has come looking for Paul, also. How does the case that Davin and Paul is working tie into Nalani looking for her birth parents, or is it two different cases? Why is Nalani being attacked every time she turns around? Where has Paul gone and is he still alive? Grab your copy today to find out the answers to these questions. It was good to reread this story and refresh my memory. Now I can't wait for the next story. Here's just a teaser from the story. "He looks like a grumpy grizzly, but around you he's more like a fluffy teddy."

Very intriguing storyline. Investigative report Nalani Price goes to Alaska looking for her foster brother who has found out something about Nalani's birth family. Special Agen Davin Shulz is also looking for an undercover agent who hasn't reported in. Turns out they are looking for the same man. The agent/brother has uncovered some information on not only Nalani's past but also on the group he's undercover in. Neither Nalani nor Davin trust each other until they are running for their lives. Find out who is after them both and why. Highly recommend this book. I've not read anything by this author before, but she has been added to my favorite authors' list. I was given an advance copy by the publisher, but these are my own thoughts and words.

I originally read this story as part of an anthology. I enjoyed the unique setting and appreciated gradually learning about Nalani’s background through a series of dangerous events. Davin was the perfect foil and protector for Nalani, and though she was strong on her own, the people coming after her were extremely violent and evil. I appreciated the emphasis on faith and trust in God and His protection. I am looking forward to reading more stories in this setting from the author, and I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys inspirational fiction.
