About this ebook

High-Stakes Romantic Suspense from USA Today Bestselling Author Elizabeth Goddard

Three years after her mother's suspicious death, forensic artist Jo Cattrel is in hiding, working at a storm-watching lodge along the Washington coast. When her father sends her a disturbing and cryptic message, Jo leaves the safety of the lodge to find him. But during the ferry crossing, Jo witnesses a murder--and becomes a target.

More surprising to Jo than being in danger is the identity of the person who steps in to protect her--none other than her ex, former Green Beret Cole Mercer. Now a private investigator, Cole has been looking into her mother's death. If he can just uncover the truth, maybe Jo can end her self-imposed captivity and the two of them can pick up the pieces and build a future together.

As Cole and Jo search for answers, the past rushes in like a dangerous tide before the truth can be revealed.

Perilous Tides dives deep into the aerospace industry with engaging characters and a compelling storyline. In the beginning of this novel, I felt somewhat disconnected due to an overload of information, finding the plot extremely complex. I struggled in the early pages of the book, but soon got up to speed and found the book interesting and suspense-filled. Elizabeth Goddard painstakingly covered this novel with the proverbial breadcrumbs so that readers could try to determine the villain in Perilous Tides - not that the breadcrumbs helped this reader! LOL The detailed setting in Washington around the Olympic Peninsula inspires me to visit! All in all, the author tied up all the moving parts of the storyline and gave us a clean romantic suspense novel that I thoroughly enjoyed! 4 stars
