About this listen

"Don’t find us. We’ll find you."

Trauma therapist Kaley Colbert needs a vacation from her job, and a ski trip with her church
singles’ group seems like the perfect way to unplug. But while in the mountains, she learns that
her last client was murdered hours after their meeting, and she wonders if the notes she’s
receiving from a possible stalker hold a more sinister warning.

On the trip, ex-boyfriend and entrepreneur Reef Mitchell wants to give their relationship another
chance, but Kaley questions if his past and priorities could ever mesh with her life. When her
client’s underworld connections catch up with her, she has no choice but trust Reef to help her
stay alive, solve her client’s mystery, and bring the killers to justice.

Wow! Kristen Hogrefe Parnell certainly delivers on both the Romantic and the Suspense in Take My Hand. This is a second chance story between Kaley and Reef (interesting backstory on his name!) during their Christian group's ski trip. She works as a therapist, and her last client before she goes on her much-needed vacation ends up having much deeper, serious ties to the mafia than anyone thought. Of course, this snowballs into a whole chase that had me holding my breath and making time to keep listening and to know how it'd continue. There are so many plot twists that kept me hooked to the story and that I know fellow lovers of the Suspense genre will appreciate. The clues, the suspense, and the action were all done extremely well and I really enjoyed this ride! But as I said, the author also delivers on the romance, and Reef is the ultimate hero with how sweet, patient, and caring he is. However, the fact that they both had things to work on (from their pasts or presents, or even trusting the Lord with the future) added a deeper layer to the story and made the characters feel real. The side characters were also great, and some friendships were even #goals and I wish I could hang out with them. Now I'm wanting for some of them to have their own story (like Olivia, Sam, Avery, etc.)

The narrator was great and I loved that she gave each character a different voice, bringing the story to life. She nailed pretty much all of the nuances (from panic and anger to worry and tenderness, to name a few.) I'm glad I got to experience this story in audio format since it added another dimension to the story.

Overall, a great Christian Romantic Suspense that features both the snowy mountains and the beach, and that will have you flipping the pages as fast as you can. Can't wait for Liam's story! ~ 5 stars

it'll have you flipping pages as fast as you can!
