I enjoy a good suspense with tons of suspense and a hint of romance. Like most people, I was introduced to Dani Pettrey's writing with her Alaskan Courage story. I really enjoyed that series, and I am glad that she has continued writing another series. With the third addition to the Chesapeake Valor series, Blind Spot, the story has just what I'm looking for. Plenty of nail-biting moments and characters who have gripped my attention from the first book, Cold Shot, and continue to Blind Spot.

I enjoy Pettrey's writing. She is great at inviting me into the story and capturing my attention from the get go. Right in the first chapter, Pettrey invites me into the tension and sparks my interest with the idea of something sinister. She also is good at making the setting come to life. Also, I enjoy how this series revolves around terrorist attacks and trafficking, which is completely relevant to the news today.

I enjoyed spending time getting into Declan and Tanner's head this time around. They have been on the fringes in the previous two stories, so it was nice to hear their story from their perspective. It was nice seeing what made them tick and watch their romance develop on a deeper level. Tanner is a smart, athletic woman who has a number of hidden skills that Declan stands in awe at. While Declan doesn't appear to be such a mean guy when Pettrey allowed me to come close and personal to his personality.

There are two mystery plots in this story. One has to do with a dead man and a "missing" couple. The other subplot has to do with a terrorist plot that I believe has been carried over from the previous novel. I enjoyed both stories and couldn't wait to see justice served. There were moments where I held my breath, waiting to see what danger the characters would end up in. Pettrey does a great job at actually leaving the end as a cliff-hanger, which I didn't see coming, but I can tell you I'm really happy she did. Makes me want to return for the next installment.

Overall, Dani Pettrey's Blind Spot is a thrill-ride of a tale with two different stories fighting for the central story with fascinating characters that kept me glued to the page. I highly recommend this novel for fans of Brandilyn Collins, Lynette Eason, and Carrie Stuart Parks. I really can't wait for the next book.

I received a complimentary copy of Blind Spot from Bethany House Publishers, but the opinions stated are all my own.

This is the third book in the Chesapeake Valor series, the story of Declan and Tanner. This time they have to work together because evil is once again coming. When they meet again sparks fly, both trying to fight the attraction and wondering why now, why him/her. The author once again did an amazing job tying the series together, cannot wait for the next installment. Thank you NetGalley and Dani Pettrey for allowing me to read this ARC and write a honest review.

I've been really looking forward to Declan and Tanner's story and I thoroughly enjoyed it. With a terrorist threat above their heads, will these two be able to put all the pieces together quietly and safely in time to stop the attack?

One thing that I absolutely adore from this series is the interaction between the characters. They're really a team, ready to stick up for each other. They tease and joke around, but they also honestly worry and protect. It's very endearing and delightful. In this book, there are two main mysteries that the team has to solve, and a small third mystery which is an introduction to the next book.... so enough excitement to keep the pages turning. I have to say though, the only reason I didn't give this book 5 stars was that I missed more character development. I missed getting to know them more personally and even the romance felt a bit straightforward for two people who used to enjoy bickering each other. Plus, during some parts, I felt like we were spending too much time on what I thought would be the secondary mystery, and not the main one involving Declan and Tanner.

All in all, I was still able to find myself completely involved in the story. And that ending, ughhhh... now to patiently wait for the next book ;-)
