Blood Ties

by Wendy Saunders

Katie Osbourne has never thought of herself as a Carter, let alone thought she had two older half-sisters. For the last eight years, all she wanted to do was raise her daughter, Hailey, and try to put her past behind her. Only her past wouldn’t let her go. With her ex-husband in prison and her psychotic twin sister dead, she’d thought she was finally free. That was until Detective Dexter came swaggering into her life with his vivid green eyes and quick smile. It’s enough to make a girl want what she knows she can’t have. Part of the past she is trying so hard to run from is tangled up in a sticky mess with his family and he has no idea. So, when her violent and dangerous ex escapes from prison and she finds herself being stalked, she has no choice but to run again. Suddenly the press are everywhere. News has broken about her father being a sick, twisted child killer and her sisters have been dragged into the media circus, who are portraying them unfairly. She has to protect her daughter; if she stays, it’s only a matter of time before the press discover who she really is, or worse, Dex discovers the one secret she’s trying so hard to keep from him. There’s only one problem – this time, running isn’t so easy. Faced with a choice, she must find the courage to tell Dex the truth and stand with her sisters or run, this time with fatal consequences. If you like reading Nora Roberts, Melinda Leigh or Kendra Elliott, you’re going to love this series – full of suspicion, murder and intrigue.

Brilliant!!

The third and last book of The Carter Trilogy. I have so enjoyed these books. Well written with unexpected twists around every corner. A series that will be great to read again.

Awesome!

Everything has been tied up,questions answered,bad guys put away ( except one) and I’m sad that there isn’t another one in the series....I did feel bad about Ethan,wondered how that would work out because Katie did still love him,she just loved Dex more...

[Connie Davis · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is the third in a series and I’m so hoping for more because I have grown to love this “family “ and want to keep up with their lives.
