4.5 stars Wow! This was such a good book, I loved the characters and the suspense. Danger on the Loch is written by Paige Edwards and it was a wonderful book. Danger on the Loch features Paisley Clark who has been raised by her cold distant mother, and when a DNA test brings her into contact with the father she has been longing for she jumps for a chance to see him. When she arrives in Scotland, Paisley learns that things are really not as they see. James finds himself in Scotland per orders from his father regarding his job. He never expected to find Paisley there or find himself in the middle of a mystery that could very well be the end of them both. I really liked Paisley and James. They were just likable characters. Paisley had learned to be independent because of her relationship with her mother, but she was still searching for someone to accept her. She was such a great character, and she didn’t overreact in any of the situations. She was kind and tried her best to mend the relationship with her father. And I just really liked Paisley James was a sweetheart! He was super kind and super energetic. I loved his little quirks and how he cared for Paisley. They were friends first, and I thought that it was the cutest thing. I really enjoyed the romance and the suspense from this book. I was on the edge of my seat, and I couldn’t wait to see what would happen. Paisley was trying to find out how to mend the relationship with her father. James was trying to figure out how to care for Paisley, and how to do his job that brought him to Scotland. I loved reading about Paisley and James’ relationship grow from friends to lovers. Also, the suspense about what was going on with Paisley’s father and his company had me the whole time. I would definitely recommend Danger on the Loch! There is some violence, but it isn’t really violent. And there are aspects of the Christian faith but it doesn't really feel preachy to me. I can't wait to read Edwards' other books! Danger on the Loch is a clean, christian suspense book. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from the publisher through Netgalley. All views expressed are only my honest opinion, a positive review was not required. |
This book had me from the beginning. It is full of family drama, intrigue, romance and beautiful backdrops. The characters are well written and developed. Paisley and James are the perfect compliment to each other. I read this book in one day, that's how good it is! I would highly recommend. |

DANGER ON THE LOCH by PAIGE EDWARDS is an exciting romantic thriller that takes place in Scotland. It is well written, with a great plot and interesting characters. When Paisley Clark travels to Scotland to meet the father she has been told abandoned her, she not only finds that this is not true, but she also finds love and adventure. I like the descriptions of Scotland and of life in a duke's castle and the Christian message of hope and God's protection that runs through the story. I am not going to tell you anything more as I do not want to spoil things for you, excepting to say that it is a worthwhile and nail biting read for anyone who enjoys romantic suspense. I was given a free copy of the book by NetGalley from Covenant Communications. The opinions in this review are completely my own. |
Raised by a cold and distant mother, photographer Paisley Clark has spent her life daydreaming about the father she doesn’t remember. Paisley’s dream turns to reality when a DNA test brings her in contact with the mysterious man. Great story! a heroine looking for the father she doesn't remember, family, friendship, romance, suspense, betrayal, and more. What an engaging journey of discovery! |

Paisley ends up in Scotland, visiting her long-lost dad, Kinross. Unbeknownst to Kinross, there is someone plotting. And he, his household, and even his land are about to be in the cross hairs. Paisley is pleasantly surprised to find a long-time friend there, James Pressley-Coombes. Along with getting used to a new country and a new family... she starts to see James in a whole new way. This is a great action-packed book. It's very hard to put down (I read it in less than a day). It's fun, has witty dialogue, and keeps your attention. The ending is really great too! It has underlying LDS themes, and has no swearing or sex scenes. |

This book was completely captivating and engaging from start to finish! The plot was well-paced, the characters were well developed, and there was just enough suspense and romance to be absolutely perfect! I highly recommend this fun and quick read. Many thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for the advanced copy of the book. |

Suspense, danger and romance what could be better? A wonderful book that weaves the elements of danger, suspense and romance together in a way that makes you not want to put it down. Add in surprising revelations and chances for happiness that seemed impossible to achieve and this book is sure to please. Paisley has been raised by her mother who refused to even speak of her ex-husband, Paisley’s dad. Paisley had been told that her father had abandoned them when she was very young and that her name had been changed. For her twenty fourth birthday, Paisley completes a DNA test and is notified of a parental connection. After contact is made Paisley heads to Scotland to meet the father she has never known only to be met with mysteries, suspense, family and romance. This is the third book featuring some of the same characters but is definitely able to be read as a standalone. I can highly recommend all three as very good books. I received an early copy and this is my honest review. |
Danger on the Loch started out great! There was murder, mystery, theft, intrigue and a brewing romance! Then at 75% in it seemed like the author forgot about all of the strings she had spinning and decided to tie them all together really quickly in a very predictive way. Which was a bummer because I was enjoying getting lost in another world. Pros: We have an everyday normal girl who finds out she’s royalty! We have a friends to lovers romance. We have a mystery to solve! Cons: The author spent time lining up events in the novel but tied them up way too quickly. It was too predictive. The ending was too fluffy. The romance was a slow build and then magically they started calling each other “baby” and were throwing around the words “I love you” like it was candy. Paisley, the main character, just kind of rolled with everything. There was no diatribe against any of the things that were said or done to her. There wasn’t even any internal monologue about her feelings about her new settings. If it were me or anyone I knew, we’d be throwing hissy fits over parents not telling us the truth for all of our lives. We wouldn’t just get over it and roll with the punches. All in all, this novel had a great pace. It’s a Christian novel so there’s a couple of scenes where they pray. If that’s your jam then this will be your book. If prayer is not your jam then you will still enjoy this book but can skip maybe two pages. I received an ARC from NetGalley for review. |
