Review: Present Danger

 

✩✩✩

Former FBI Special Agent Jack Tanner is working as a detective in Montana when he comes across a body in the national forest during a search and rescue mission. He's committed to finding the killer, even if it means working alongside his old flame, US Forest Service Special Agent Terra Connors.

When Terra discovers that the murder victim had ties to a powerful and dangerous trafficker of archaeological artifacts, the investigation takes a deadly turn--one that hits too close to home. As Terra fears she lacks the courage to face what comes next, Jack is more determined than ever to protect her. But he's failed her before. And if he fails this time, it will cost them far more than just their hearts.

Genre: romantic suspense

Publication date: November 2021

Mature content: no

Review: I honestly believe the plot of Present Danger had a lot of potential. However. the descriptions - of everything, from houses to cars, and even people - are so long and full of details that there's a point where you just get lost. 

Besides, there's way too much going back and forth between Jack and Terra, their joint past and their feelings for each other. Both of them keep rehashing the same points over and over - did they do the right thing in the past, are they doing the right thing now, what if... 

Overall, good potential, nice twists and turns (when you finally get to them) and some decent suspense. But way to long (and, frankly, a bit boring) to be able to hold attention from start to end. 

Happy readings!
