For her entire life, Lisa Garth has felt like a supporting character in the drama of life. The designation never bothered her-until now. Lantern Beach, where she's settled and runs a popular restaurant, has boarded up for the season. The slower pace leaves her with too much time alone.Braden Dillinger came to Lantern Beach to try to heal. The former Special Forces officer returned from battle with invisible scars and diminished hope. But his recovery is hampered by the fact that an unknown enemy is trying to kill him. From the moment Lisa and Braden meet, danger ignites around them, and both are drawn into a web of intrigue that turns their lives upside down. As shadows creep in, will Lisa and Braden be able to shine a light on the peril around them? Or will the encroaching darkness turn their worst nightmares into reality?
This second installment of the Lantern Beach Romantic Suspense Series focuses on Lisa, Ty and Cassidy's friend who likes to concoct crazy combinations in food and is a little bit quirky. Lisa couldn't have imagined that she would be single at this stage of her life, but there doesn't seem to be anyone in town that is a right fit for her. Enter Braden, a friend of Ty's who is staying at Lantern Beach while he heals from PTSD and escapes the past. Braden believes someone is out to kill him, but then he can't remember who or why. Lisa is attracted to Braden, but also a little afraid of his unpredictable behavior and memory lapses as she gets drawn into the danger surrounding him. Is someone out to get him, or is he just paranoid? I enjoy hearing more about the secondary characters from the Lantern Beach Series, but I have to say, I was hoping to catch up a little more with Ty and Cassidy too. Looking forward to Book #3 in this series. I received a copy of this book from the author but the opinions are my own.
