Description

A stalker who wants to finish what he started. A US Marshal who's vowed to protect his charge. And one woman who is determined to put the past in the past.

Flight paramedic Raina Price has been running so long it's hard to stop. To escape a dangerous stalker, she changed her name and disappeared, building a new life with the help of a friend from her time in juvie. It feels good to put her energies into saving people's lives, but because her stalker was never found, she's never stopped looking over her shoulder. And one can only run so far before the past finally catches up.

US Marshal Vincent Corelli's job is to hunt down fugitives and protect those who are assigned to him. When Raina is almost killed right in front of him, he vows to protect her at all costs--whether it's his job or not. Together they work to solve the mystery of Raina's past. But someone is out to make sure Raina doesn't live long enough to do it.

Countdown is the breathless conclusion to USA Today bestselling author Lynette Eason's thrilling Extreme Measures series.

Raine has a past with a stalker, and trust, and her faith is a struggle.
She didn’t feel she could have a future, even if she was drawn to Vince.
While he was drawn to her, even if she kept him at arms length.
The author knows how to give us a story that draws you in, the emotion and struggles that Raine has, you understand why.
A good suspense and romance as well as the series, readers will enjoy
Given ARC by Net Galley and Revell for my voluntary review
Better to go with what you know than what you feel.

This fourth book in the Extreme Measures series certainly does not disappoint. Riana, a flight paramedic, works together with several of her juvie friends, all of whom have taken their pasts and made something good out of it. Somehow, Raina’s past has caught up with her and the big question is if she will survive it.

With plot twists that are ongoing, the author takes us on a race to the finish line, never even giving a hint on who is behind the attempted murder of Riana or even why they would want her dead. There is just the right amount of romance to counteract the tension of being drugged, shot at and never ending cold. Will faith finally win over fear as she realizes that nothing happens without the Lord’s permission?

An early copy of this book was received through Revell, Baker Publishing Group and LibraryThing. These thoughts are my own and were in no way solicited.
