My Review 💜

I am new to Dana R. Lynn, and the Amish Country Justice series, but I must say I am very impressed! From the beginning you are gripped with a sense of foreboding. Aiden Forster is a cop deep undercover, and dealing with a very threatening and powerful man, Phillip Larson. Sophie and Celine Larson, Phillip's nieces, have no idea just how forceful and evil their uncle is, until they end up at the wrong place at the wrong time. This encounter, in the first chapter mind you, leads Aiden, Sophie, and Celine on a chase that none of them saw coming, and made for a compelling read.

I love a good, clean suspense and Plain Refuge delivers. There are moments where you know exactly what's going to happen, and then other moments where there are twists that you don't see coming. There are times where the fear the characters feel grip you, and you are fervently swiping the pages to see what happens next.

I enjoyed the suspense, but what I loved even more than that was the friendships woven into the story. This added a whole other layer of heart to this tale that is really beautiful, and was the most cherishing part of the book, in my opinion.

The characters are wonderful, the setting vivid, and the suspense unrelenting. I caught myself several times saying to myself, "Good gosh! They can't catch a break!" but the ending was pleasing, and I was left smiling and satisfied. It's a quick read, due to the suspense, and one that I highly recommend.

My Rating: ★★★★★
