CFBA Book Spotlight and Brief Thoughts: Submerged by Dani Pettrey
About the Book: A sabotaged plane. Two dead deep-water divers.
Yancey, Alaska was a quiet town . . . until the truth of what was hidden in the depths off the coast began to appear.
Bailey Craig vowed never to set foot in Yancey again. She has a past, and a reputation--and Yancey's a small town. She's returned to bury a loved one killed in the plane crash and is determined not to stay even an hour more than necessary. But then dark evidence emerges and Bailey's own expertise becomes invaluable for the case.
Cole McKenna can handle the deep-sea dives and helping the police recover evidence. He can even handle the fact that a murderer
has settled in his town and doesn't appear to be moving on. But dealing with the reality of Bailey's reappearance is a tougher challenge.
She broke his heart, but she is not the same girl who left Yancey. He let her down, but he's not the same guy she left behind. Can they move beyond the hurts of their pasts and find a future together?
Brief Thoughts: I'm about a third of a way through this book, and it's a quick easy read. I requested it because I kind of like stories about divers, at least I have in the past. I think this is a pretty strong unique premise for Christian romantic suspense and the writing is strong. It's definitely Christian fiction, the hero and heroine have already exchanged their stories of conversion. But it's got some unique stuff going on with the premise and setting, so definitely worth a read if you enjoy Christian fiction romantic suspense!
