MY THOUGHTS.....
Secrets can't stay buried forever.
Talk about a turbulent adventure! No one does romantic suspense better than Elizabeth Goddard, but her storytelling reaches another level in When the Silence Breaks. She straps readers into a roller-coaster ride of secrets, twists, and turns that sometimes gave me heart palpitations! From the first sentence to a spine-chilling confrontation with the villain...the nail-biting suspense never ceased!
A perilous search in the rugged terrain of the Cascade Mountains is the beginning of a special bond between Sarah Ellison and Ryder Goodwin. You can't experience mudslides, the threat of a volcano, and being pursued by a relentless assailant without developing a true dependence on each other! Add a deepening romantic awareness and an increasing reliance on God, and the result is romantic Christian suspense at its best!
I loved this book! If you enjoy intriguing characters, second-chances, and heart-pounding suspense, grab a copy of When the Silence Breaks. I am eagerly awaiting the next book in the Mercy Ridge series!
I received a copy from the author, publisher, and NetGalley. There was no obligation for a positive review.
