5 out of 5 stars
VENDETTA is a great start in another series from Lisa Harris
Agent Nikki Boyd’s life has been shaped by her sister Sarah.
When Sarah went missing ten years ago, Nikki changed career paths. Now an agent
with the Tennessee Missing Persons Task Force, she’s been called in to
investigate a case involving a missing teenager. When clues in her current case
resemble those of her sister’s, Nikki realizes the case isn’t about finding a missing
girl. Someone is stalking Nikki. Someone with information that was never
revealed to the public regarding her sister’s case. Trying to stay one step
ahead is difficult when you don’t know who you’re chasing. With time running out,
Nikki knows she must find the missing girl before she becomes the unfortunate
victim in a killer’s twisted game.
Fast-paced, action-packed, emotionally-charged—those are
just a few adjectives I can use to describe VENDETTA. Not only is Nikki on a journey
in her professional life, but in her personal life as well. After losing her
best friend, Kate, in a boating accident, Nikki has remained close to Tyler,
Kate’s husband. Though Nikki is dating a guy Tyler dubs “Mr. Perfect”, Nikki
struggles with her changing feelings for Tyler. In a twist of circumstance,
Tyler is with her as she closes in on the abductor they’re chasing. He becomes
the person she leans on during a very difficult time, making her more acutely aware
that her feelings for Tyler have somehow changed. But knowing he is still in
love with Kate, Nikki keeps her feelings to herself.
I loved everything about VENDETTA. The characters were
great, the plot heavily steeped with twists and turns, and the setting
beautiful but unsettling. This was a book I didn’t want to put down. When I
wasn’t trying to figure out who the killer was, I was internally coaxing Nikki
to realize what she has with Tyler is more than just friendship. The perfect
mix of romance and suspense. I can’t wait for the next installment.
