When Secrets Come Calling: A Second Chance Southern Romantic Suspense by Felicia Ferguson

 

When former University of Alabama and Titans wide receiver Dax Carpenter learns his father is accused of a forty-year-old robbery and murder, he turns to the only person he trusts to discover the truth: his ex-girlfriend, Caitlin Fitzhugh.

Caitlin, a cold-case specialist with the Alabama State Division of Investigations, wants nothing to do with the case nor Dax. Not only is the evidence against Dax’s father already condemning, she can’t risk having her heart broken—again.

Caitlin’s boss, however, ignores her arguments, and she begrudgingly takes the consult, convincing herself she can keep the case and her past with Dax separate. But unlike her, longings and memories don’t follow orders. While she lends her skills to the Gulf Shores Police Department in the search for the truth, Dax fends off a possibly career-ending social media hit—leading him to question everything he knows about his father and himself.

As the secrets of both their pasts unfold, they discover whether Dax’s father truly robbed and murdered a man forty years ago but also why Caitlin ended their relationship. Secrets that could drive a wedge between them, forever.

My Review

 A read that makes you think about how much a person means to you, friend, romance, child or parent. We meet a young woman who has lived with a dear friend missing, and now her father is ill, can she move on and accept life challenges?
We are also given an outstanding football player, and he is now thrown for a loop when his Dad is arrested, and thus he calls the girl that dumped him, but she works cold cases, can she help?
This story does give us sweet romance, and in-depth look into some families, and their challenges!
I loved the strong theme here of depending on God, and finding their strength through Him.
This is a page turner, and answers do coming!
I received this book through a launch team, and was not required to give a positive review.
