The Deadly Shallows by Dani Pettrey

 

I have read every book that Dani Pettrey has written, beginning with Submerged in 2012. I have just finished The Deadly Shallows and it is awesome how Dani has gone from a wonderful author to a fantastic storyteller. Her books simply draw you in causing the world to fade away. I love the way she always weaves faith through her characters' lives. The deadly Shallows brings to a thrilling conclusion the Coastal Guardians series and I am sincerely sorry to say goodbye to these characters. And the situations the folks find themselves in are so realistic, that I find myself ducking in order to avoid danger. I do recommend you read the first two books in the series before reading the Deadly Shallows. 

Grab a pitcher of tea and curl up for an awesome adventure!

I was given a copy of Deadly Shallows by NetGalley with no expectations. All thoughts are my own!

From Amazon:

A mass shooting.
A stolen weapon capable of immense destruction. 
A painful secret that threatens to tear two hearts apart.

CGIS Agent Noah Rowley is rocked to the core when he learns of a mass shooting raging on his Coast Guard base. He and his team stop the attack, but not before numerous innocent lives are lost. Furious and grief-stricken, he determines to do whatever is needed to bring the mastermind behind the attack to justice.

Coast Guard flight medic Brooke Kesler evacuates the scene of the shooting in a helicopter carrying the only surviving gunman. Gravely wounded, the man whispers mysterious information to Brooke that immediately paints a target on her back.

As Brooke and Noah race to uncover answers, emotions between them ignite. Noah struggles to protect Brooke at all costs and to conceal the secret that prevents him from becoming what he longs to be--the right man for her.

Everything is at stake as a horrifying truth emerges. . . .

The mass shooting wasn't the end game. It was only the beginning.

"This action-packed thriller is sure to please."--IRENE HANNON, bestselling and award-winning author

"I love Dani's writing, and The Deadly Shallows is one of her best! Tightly written and dripping with tension. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough."--CARRIE STUART PARKS, bestselling and award-winning author of Relative Silence
