Hidden Legacy was actually very good! I didn't read the companion novel before this one (mainly because I didn't know there was a companion novel!), but that didn't keep me from thoroughly enjoying this story.

I liked the second chance romance and the characters were nice. There were scenes of suspense and danger and basically everything you look for in a LIS.

All in all, I recommend Hidden Legacy if you enjoy LIS.

*I received a complimentary eBook copy of this book for my honest review. As always, all thoughts and opinions expressed are my own.*

This book is full of mystery, suspense, romance, family and so much more. I am not sure if it is part of a series or not, It seems it would be a great one if not. I fell in love with most of the characters and want to know their history and future. If you enjoy police/FBI type books you will love this one.

Caroline Harrison is excited about the upcoming adoption of Henry, yet when it seems someone is trying to kill them she must rely on the only man who has ever broken her heart. Will thy be able to stay alive and possibly have a future?

Jason Drake is a handsome detective with history he would like to forget. When Caroline is in need of protection will history repeat itself or is their more in store for them, if they can stay alive.

Trying to figure out who is behind this mystery and hoping Caroline and Jason will get together makes this so much more than a christian romance. I loved all the suspense that was in this novel too and look forward to reading more from this author.

Caroline Harrison is in the process of adopting Henry, the son of her best friend. She returns home to find it vandalized, and a shooter who attempts to kill her. Caroline fears that her son is the real target, will she be able to keep her son safe?

Detective Jason Drake and Caroline used to be childhood friends, she wanted more but he left for the Marine Corps, now he's back working for the Sheriff's Dept. Jason came home to help his father who has ALS. Now he wants to do everything he can to help Caroline and her young son, will a second chance at love also be in the cards?

I love how Jason takes Caroline and Henry to his parents house, and even though he ha ALS, his father can still hold a gun. Jason has grown in his faith during his time in the Marines and he realizes that he doesn't want to walk away from Caroline ever again.

Caroline is a good mother to Henry, strong under pressure, and will do anything to keep her son safe. She knows that Jason has grown and matured for the better, and sees in him a man that she can trust and depend on. She admires his close relationship with his family.

I LOVED this book, it's one of the bet books that I have read from Love Inspired in a long time. It jumps right into the story, with mystery, and danger. There are many surprises and I love how the reader discovers new revelations along with the characters. Great heroes that I could cheer for the whole way through, great chemistry, I loved that they got a second chance at love.

Intense action, intriguing suspense, great character development, sweet and gentle second chance love story, an adorable baby - this story has it all, and does it well!
The characters are multiple and likable, from protagonists to the supporting cast and crew, they have all distinctive characteristics, they are unique, with their strengths and weaknesses, and they all have something about them that made me have a connection with them, understand where they were coming from, and like them all the same. Most of them had personally found salvation in the Lord, and had faith in God, in His guidance in their lives, this was clear to see as they proudly proclaimed it.
Caroline Harrison and Jason Drake obviously have a connection. The once wrecked childhood friendship gave them a foundation start building something new, something solid, mature, and lasting. They could not have hidden the feelings they have for each other even if they tried. The past mistakes and hurt were handled without too much angst and drama, there was enough tension, trouble, and danger from the threats and murder attempts against Caroline and her son.
The story has an enthralling, compelling tone and tempo, it pulled me right into the story, and held me captive till the end. It has heart-stopping moments of pure fear and devastation, at one point I even questioned if there could be a happy ending and if everyone could make it alive through the disastrous attacks with a murderous intent.
A breathtaking, thrilling, and impressive tale on many levels, that will deliver a sincere message of forgiveness, while keeping you entertained with the action and romance

Overall this was a pretty great book. It was action packed and fast paced. There was never a dull moment in my opinion. This book was easy to get sucked into and very hard to put down. I manged to devour this book within maybe 3 hours and that goes to say that I enjoyed it. I loved getting to see that connection between Caroline and Jason. I loved getting to see the mystery unfold. I loved that I constantly wondered when would the hit man strike next. It was a pretty great book I enjoyed it!

This was a very well written story with a lot of "feels", chemistry and suspense. This was my first religious read and even though it doesn't have any sex in it, it still kept my interest.

"Hidden Legacy" is a Christian romantic suspense novel. This is the second book in the series, though it works as a stand alone. However, this book did "spoil" what went on in the first novel.

The suspense was created by someone trying to kill Caroline and her son. I loved the scene where Jason's mother tells them to get inside (rather than get romantically distracted in the open) since someone's trying to kill them--but what does she know, she's just a housewife! lol. Go, girl!

I liked all of the main characters. The hero and heroine both had some issues to face before they could get together. Jason previously left Caroline behind because he didn't want to be near his birth father. Caroline was dealing with why God allowed bad things to happen.

The Christian theme was naturally woven into the story and was about forgiveness and trusting God. There was no sex or bad language. Overall, I'd recommend this enjoyable novel.
