Review: Cold Snap

✩✩✩✩✩

Grady Steel returns to the insular community of Deception Cove, Maine, where he spent his troubled youth unfairly labeled the town’s bad boy. Now a member of the FBI’s elite Hostage Rescue Team, Grady is on a risky undercover mission, hunting one of the FBI’s Most Wanted fugitives.

Recovering from a broken marriage, Brynn Webster comes home to the sleepy small town—where nothing ever happens—to help her parents run their seaside cafe during her mother’s illness. After diving into the frigid waters of the winter harbor to rescue a dead man, Brynn begins to realize that the ocean isn’t the only place swirling with dangerous undercurrents.

Grady befriends the pretty manager of the local cafe in an effort to unearth the town’s closely guarded secrets. Deceiving Brynn isn’t easy, though, especially when he starts to fall for her. Then, when decades-old crimes lead to modern-day murder, Grady’s mission becomes a race against time as he strives to catch a ruthless killer—before Brynn becomes the next victim.

Mature content: yes

Review: Loved it. In terms of timeline, Cold Snap closely follows the previous book in the series (Cold Deceit), although it can be perfectly read as a stand alone.

 

I loved Grady and Brynn, both separately and together, and the suspense and twists and turns in this book are incredible. I'm not entirely sure the final twist is entirely realistic or believable, but I certainly did not see it coming. 

Great book, if you love the genre you definitely shouldn't miss it.  

Happy readings!
