If I Live By Terri Blackstock, New York Times Bestselling Author Published by Zondervan

My thoughts:  An exciting, tense ending to a series that is written in a style that is both engaging and easy to read. While not on a level with the stridently ugly and vicious crime novels that flood the market, this series, and especially book #3 If I Live, is packed with tension, chases, capture, emotion, joy, grief, pain, and love.

Readers will sense the need to continue flipping page after page until they reach the end of this exciting finale.

As private investigator, Dylan, continues to aid Casey as she flees one scene after another because she is being pursued for crimes for which she is not responsible and as Casey faces challenge after challenge they both see God at work in their lives. Leading. Protecting. Comforting. Strengthening.

The revelation of criminal activity and those involved is surprising and reeks of the horror when the public faces criminal entities that work in the background and are not openly identifiable.

A good read and you will root for Casey and Dylan throughout.

About the book: THE HUNT IS ALMOST OVER.

Casey Cox is still on the run after being indicted for murder. The hunt that began with her bloody footprints escalates, and she’s running out of places to hide. Her face is all over the news, and her disguises are no longer enough. It’s only a matter of time before someone recognizes her.

Dylan Roberts, the investigator who once hunted her, is now her only hope. Terrifying attempts on Dylan’s life could force Casey out of hiding. The clock is ticking on both their lives, but exposing the real killers is more complicated than they knew. Amassing the evidence to convict their enemies draws Dylan and Casey together, but their relationship has consequences. Will one life have to be sacrificed to protect the other?
