Storm Warning by Elizabeth Goddard is the first book in
her Hidden Bay series. This book is
action packed from the get go, filled with mystery, intrigue, and suspense.
Remi Grant first came to Cedar Trails Lodge when she was
searching for a safe haven where she could escape from those trying to find
her. These days Remi works as the
manager of the lodge. The lodge is fully
booked with guests who are here to watch the storm of the decade come ashore with
winds and waves battering the Pacific Northwest coastline.
If it was up to her, Remi would not be on the beach with the
storm coming in. But she was trying to
find a guest’s tiny yorkie. Time is
running out and Remi is reminded she can go up a rope ladder. A few feet from the top Remi notices the
rungs of the ladder are broken and the rope is shredded. As she considers her options, she hears a
voice, “Grab my hands now before it’s too late.” The stranger, Hawk Beckett, caught her wrist as
Remi is paralyzed in fear, and he pulls her to the top.
Former Night Stalker and military helicopter pilot Hawk
Beckett was able to book the last cabin before the storm came in. A friend had told him that he might find the answers
he was looking for at the Cedar Trails Lodge. Remi would like to remember what happened two
years ago. Hawk would like to forget the
painful memories of the past couple of years.
Despite feeling leery of Hawk, it seems Remi will need to trust him to
help protect her from whoever has finally tracked her down.
Hawk Beckett was my favorite characters. I like that he was ready, willing, and able
to do whatever he had to do to protect Remi.
With all his military and security training he was the right man for the
job. With the resources that Hawk has
available, he is not the average Joe. In
that sense, realism is a bit of a stretch.
Sometimes that is okay and why I am reading fiction. There was no shortage of potential bad guys, with
suspects at every turn. I had inkling
who the bad guy may be and it seems as though not everyone is who they first seem
to be. Faith was a small part of the
story and I would have liked to have had that play a bigger part in the character’s
lives. Overall, I liked the book and
enjoyed the mystery and suspense. It kept
me up late on more than one night.
From page one, Storm Warning is action packed and filled with
mystery, intrigue, and suspense. It is
fast paced and may keep you up at night until you unravel the mysteries. If you like intrigue, mystery, and suspense
you may want to read Elizabeth’s Goddard’s newest book Storm Warning.
I would like to thank Revell Publishers and NetGalley
for the opportunity to read a complimentary copy of Storm Warning
by Elizabeth Goddard. I
was under no obligation to give a favorable review.
