This is a new author for me. When I checked it out I was stunned she had several books out all with great reviews. So I thought another good book to review. Now I am shocked at the content not only as a reader but as a Mom. There was a write up about the topic of “human trafficking” and the author is donating proceeds for the cause. So BIG BRAVO to Heather for that!!
So the plot is about teens getting lured through a chat space (think my space and FB chats) and drugged until they are convinced they are hopeless and give up. That is when these psycho’s get their “catalogue” together and try to sell girls.
The book is more suspense than thriller and I think equal romance (smut that wont make you blush too too much) The main characters are Rachael Cooper a prominent Reporter who is easily recognized and her ex Conrad. Well Rachael scores an interview with an idol Bruce Springsteen. They do the usual chatting and when the interview is over they get a little personal. He of course, is very in tuned when it comes to woman (swoon!!) and tells her she isn’t over her ex. Then Bruce tells her to call him. Rachel thinks a little too much of course.
Shortly after Rachel gets a call from her mother saying her sister is missing. The only person Rachel can think of is Conrad. He can find her, he can help, no hesitation she calls him.
Author Heather Huffman reunites some of her fans’ favorite characters with this unforgettable journey of romance, friendship, humor and suspense.
Determined to protect her family, Rachel finds herself right in the middle of the worst thing that could happen to her sister. It was tragic to learn about the underworld of human trafficking. As Rachel, Conrad and now his Sister Neena try to find these guys, get her sister back and do it all while hiding out deep in the bayou of Louisiana.
Everything happens and makes Rachael see an opportunity to re-evaluate her choices in life and take a new path. Lucky for us we are treated to Conrad and some major romance. I think anyone with a teen or college aged kid, boy or girl, should read this book for the topic alone. The Conrad scene is a big bonus. It will shake you up a little when they are undercover and pretending to be interviewed for a purchase. Gosh that part was intense! Overall a great read and big recommendation from me!
