Secrets at Cedar Cabin {Colleen Coble}

Running for her life in the wake of her mother’s murder, Bailey Fleming escapes to the only place she can think of—a remote, dilapidated cabin in Lavender Tides. Intending to finally get to the truth behind the lies of her past, Bailey only finds more questions when bodies are discovered near her cabin hideout along with traces of a dangerous human trafficking ring. In an unlikely partnership with FBI agent Lance Phoenix, Bailey races to understand the mystery surrounding her life and circumstances before the murderer tracks her down.

Meanwhile, Lance is determined to rescue his sister, Ava, who was abducted after running away from home as a teenager. An unexpected lead brings him to the remote cabin, and he wonders if Bailey—with her suspicious past and strange connections to his sister’s case—is really who she claims to be and if she can somehow lead him to Ava.

Filled with Colleen Coble's custom blend of suspense and romance, Secrets at Cedar Cabin takes us back to the evocative landscape of Washington's coast where nothing is quite as it seems.

My Thoughts:
When you pick up a Colleen Coble book, you know you are going to get a story filled with drama and suspense with a sweet love story mixed in. This book fit that expectation just perfectly and I loved it for it.

I did not read the first two books in this Lavender Tides series, but this book worked well as a stand-alone and I had no trouble getting to know the characters and the necessary backstory to make sense of the big picture story. I immediately felt drawn to Bailey and the grief she must feel with the loss of her mother and the threat on her own life. As the story progresses and we begin to discover secrets of Bailey's life - and as she discovers her entire life history has been a lie - my heart just went out to her and I wanted nothing but for her to have a perfectly happy ending in her life.

I also felt drawn to Lucas and his instinct to immediately protect Bailey from the unknown and the danger she would find herself in. The determination in his pursuit to find his sister made him the type of character you hoped would find his happiness in life as well.

I appreciate Coble's ability to take each of her characters and have them find their way back to God no matter the circumstances they are faced with. She does it in such a natural way that does not seem preachy, and I love the message that comes from those relationships.

If you are a fan of Colleen Coble you will love this book. If you have never given her a read, pick this one up and prepare to fall in love!
