MIA: Missing in Atlanta

by Debby Giusti

Granted, he hadn't known her long, but returning war hero Jude Walker expected to eventually marry the woman he'd met during his last leave. Not fi nd her missing. Or learn that her last known address was a homeless shelter in a dangerous part of the city.

The shelter's temporary director, Sarah Montgomery, didn't know Jude's friend. But she knew the streets, knew the dangers—from drugs and prostitution to the most cold-blooded of criminals—right outside her door. Knew that the handsome, brave captain was in for heartache. And that falling in love with him was her riskiest move yet.

Jude, home on leave, looking for his girlfriend that he met 6 months ago on 2 weeks of leave and came back to find her missing. He is assisted by Sarah who works at a Shelter. While trying to find out what happened to his girlfriend he discovers she is not who he though was or more so who he imagined her to be. All the time he found himself growing closer to Sarah. A Christian Suspense romance that I found very sweet and enjoyable.

Missing in Atlanta was a very good read. There was some suspense, mystery, some romance and some lessons of faith mixed in. It was entertaining and interesting. I like that it was set in Atlanta too. I use to visit Atlanta when I was younger. The setting seemed oddly familiar to me. It definitely made the story more likable for me.

Returning soldier Jude Walker comes to Atlanta to find a woman he'd spent a few weeks with prior to his deployment, but only finds a mystery. Her address is a homeless shelter in the bad part of Atlanta, being run by Sarah Montgomery, who tries to rehabilitate prostitutes and avoid drug runners. This book would make a perfect Lifetime Movie of the Week.

Much more in depth and realistic plot than I expected. Still have a personal preference for the historical line.
