“Beneath The Surface” ~Lynn H. Blackburn~ Review

Synopsis:

After a harrowing experience with an obsessed patient, oncology nurse practitioner Leigh Weston needed a change. She thought she’d left her troubles behind when she moved home to Carrington, North Carolina, and took a job in the emergency department of the local hospital. But when someone tampers with her brakes, she fears the past has chased her into the present. She reaches out to her high school friend turned homicide investigator, Ryan Parker, for help.

Ryan finds satisfaction in his career, but his favorite way to use his skills is as a volunteer underwater investigator with the Carrington County Sheriff’s Office dive team. When the body of a wealthy businessman is discovered in Lake Porter, the investigation uncovers a possible serial killer–one with a terrifying connection to Leigh Weston and deadly implications for them all.

Dive into the depths of fear with an exciting new voice in romantic suspense. Award-winning author Lynn H. Blackburn grabs readers by the throat and doesn’t let go until the final heart-pounding page.

Review:

OMG! This book is so good!!! If you love mystery thrillers then this is the book for you!!!! It is the first book in the Dive Team Investigation series, but it can totally be read as a stand-alone. It has a great beginning and it wraps it up so nicely at the end. I will definitely be checking out the next book!!!

It is so so so good! It starts us right out with a bang…dead body in the lake! What?!?! The Detective that is charge of the case just happens to know the woman that lives next to the lake!!! They have known each other since a young age and unfortunately her dock is theiclosest to the dead body…ewwww…. Lo and behold though he kinda likes her 😉 Leigh our main gal, lady of the lake if you will is a nurse practitioner at the local hospital and has had her fair share of ordeals in the past. Ultimately, bringing her back to her childhood home.

For Leigh seeing Ryan, our sexy detective, it brings a bunch old memories racing back to the surface. He was her High School crush but always kept it to herself! Her big brother Kirk was always the overbearing type and made sure to keep the boys away from her lol! As frustrating as that was the timing couldn’t be more perfect for them, despite the dead body and psycho stalker that Leigh has managed to acquire since finding the said body near her house.

You will never guess how this book ends. I was so surprised by whom the killer was that I had to stop and reevaluate everything I had read up to that point! It has so many twists and turns that it will literally have you sitting at the edge of your seat from start to finish. I absolutely loved this book and I cannot wait to read the next in the series! Absolutely recommend this book!!!!!!!!
