Book Spotlight: Now Until Forever by Lisa Phillips

Hello Bookworms!

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. We got the photos done for the sale of our house, which is going on the market this week, so my weekend was spent rushing cleaning and spending some quality time with family. It was craziness and perfection at the same time. I've been so busy that I haven't had a chance to stress about the move itself, which is quickly approaching, and that is such a blessing.

What else is a blessing is that you're here with me today! I hope you enjoy today's book spotlight and excerpt from this Christian Thriller with Romance and don't forget to scroll to the bottom of this post and enter the amazing giveaway from JustRead Tours.

**The Epic Stand-alone Finale**

Born into a legacy, Eliana must find her own brand of justice.

After moving to Chicago to work at the mysterious Shrine museum, Eliana is determined to uncover the family secrets she’s never been told. When she stumbles upon her first ever dead body, everyone around her believes she should try and solve the murder. But taking cases isn’t what she came here for. Despite her plans, things are about to turn far more sinister, and the path she’s on seems determined to drag her back into a nightmare.

Chicago PD Officer Carlos Ryson was born into a legacy of his own. He’s here to look for his missing sister, Luci, and wants to enlist Eliana’s help. This is a family problem, and only family working together can solve it. But Eliana has never forgotten the way Carlos shredded her heart. If he wants them to team up, he’ll have to confront the damage he did and find a way to repair it.

While the city around them descends into a chaos that resembles the end times, someone has seized the opportunity to get what they want from the Shrine. Only Eliana stands in their way, but if she’s going to figure this out she’ll need to trust that the people around her have her back.

Before it’s too late.

Now Until Forever is the stand-alone finale to the Brand of Justice series, and is set in the near-future. It features a happily ever after romance mixed with high-stakes suspense in this gripping crime fiction story.

Excerpts

“You know,” Sarah began, “when I said it was time to figure out what you’re made of, I didn’t think it would be this.”
“Sorry to disappoint.”
“Don’t get me wrong.” Sarah shrugged. “I wasn’t looking forward to fighting you. That wouldn’t have lasted long anyway. Three against one.” She motioned to the two men, one still unconscious on the floor. “But I figured you’d try brute force first.”
Eliana lifted her chin. “You don’t know anything about me.”
“I guess I get to be surprised.” Sarah smiled, but there was no amusement in her eyes.
