After evading an attack, defense attorney Adam Spencer is on the run from a dangerous hitman. The killer’s wife is Adam’s only hope at apprehending the criminal—until she lands in the hospital. Now he must depend on her twin sister, Jaelyn Reed, to find the answers they need…all while protecting the baby niece Jaelyn didn’t know she had. But with threats at every turn, trust may be the deadliest trap…
Christmas in the Crosshairs by veteran (and quickly becoming one of my personal favorites) author Deena Alexander packs a satisfying punch and I didn’t want to put this book down. With its engaging characters on the run from danger, I was intrigued, but add in a surprise baby and I was hooked.
Both the main characters have compelling backstories. Jaelyn Reed is a nurse and serves as a volunteer with Seaport Fire and Rescue. After the death of her parents, she discovered she was adopted and is a twin. She is shocked when the sister she’d never met arrives unconscious in the ER in critical condition. Adam Spencer is a criminal defense attorney whose wife and unborn child were murdered and has spent the last five years looking for their killer and whoever was behind the hitman. That someone doesn’t want to be unmasked and Adam has a target on his back.
This is the 4th book in the author’s Love Inspired works and is set, once again, on Long Island. It is an excellent addition to this exciting, faith-forward series. Jaelyn is a recurring character from the previous novel, Kidnapped In The Woods. (See my review here.)
I recommend this highly satisfying read to those who are
already fans of Alexander’s Love Inspired books as well as those new to
the line; it stands alone very well.
