MY THOUGHTS.....
The 'Secrets to Keep' series has been exceptional, but this third book was especially riveting! Multi-faceted characters, a relevant subject, and a compelling plot kept me glued to the pages of The Targeted. Secrets, fear, and finally, Chloe's determination to protect others had me experiencing all of the feels, including disgust, dismay, and frustration. There was, however, hope, faith, and satisfaction as truth and justice were fiercely pursued!
I can always count on being entertained AND challenged by author Cara Putman. The Targeted illustrates the worst and best of mankind as it explores the loss of trust and innocence, but the author's personal knowledge of the legal system powerfully intensifies the drama! I recommend this top-notch thriller to all who enjoy Christian suspense,
I received a complimentary ARC from the author, Kregel Publications, and NetGalley, There was no obligation for a positive review.
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
