Release Blitz & Review: Crimson River

 

Crimson River by Devney Perry is now live!

 

Lyla Eden has spent the last few years watching her siblings fall in love. Meanwhile, she's married to her job. It's on her hundredth consecutive workday that her sister stages an intervention, kicking Lyla out of her own coffee shop. With nothing else to do, Lyla sets out on her favorite hiking trail.

It's there that she spots a man washing blood from his hands in a stream. One moment she's staring at the jagged scar on his face. The next, his hand is around her throat. But by some miracle, he lets her go.

Shaken to her core, Lyla reports the incident to the local police. Two days later, Vance Sutter arrives in town, armed with endless questions and a tarnished badge.

Vance may be ruggedly handsome but he's as mysterious as the man he's hunting. And he'll be gone from Quincy in a blink. Yet Lyla's crush is impossible to stop.

No matter how hard Vance tries to ignore it, there's no denying the chemistry between them. And avoiding Lyla is not an option. After years of chasing dead ends, she's his only lead to closing the case that haunts his career. So together, they'll retrace her steps.

To find the scarred man she met beside a crimson river.

This is the 5th book of the series and takes us back to the Eden family and their small town. This is Lyla's story.  It can be read as a stand alone but the whole series is delightful so grab them all! 

Lyla is in a funk and her family knows it. She is convinced to take and afternoon off. Little did she know that she would fall into a murder mystery and in the process, find the missing piece of her heart. Vance has been chasing demons for 4 years and he takes one last chance on a lead to find a murder suspect. 

I loved the chemistry with these two. I loved that they decided to just take a chance on coming together to help heal each other. Great to see the Eden family again.  They rally around those they love and quickly fold Vance into their love. 

Vance has some history that comes out. I'm not certain his family ins and outs added any value to the story.  It was kind of lost pages for me. He loved Lyla's family and I don't know if I needed all the back story especially since it doesn't play into any action in the story. 

The suspense portion of this was good but I'm hoping we get just a sweet slow burn romance with Mateo's book. Looking forward to seeing what the author brings us! 

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
