Book Review

Publisher's Note:

At the advice of her therapist, homicide survivor Harper Reynolds has traded her job as a crime scene photographer for a more peaceful life taking photographs of the natural world. But her hopes for a life surrounded by the serenity of the outdoors are dashed when she inadvertently captures a murder being committed in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. She flees the scene in fear--and loses the camera. Former Green Beret Heath McKade is a reserve deputy in an understaffed county who has been called in to protect Harper, a childhood friend he is surprised to see back in the area. When Harper learns that the sheriff's department can't find any evidence of the murder she witnessed, she is determined to do what she can to see that justice is done. What neither Harper nor Heath could know is how many explosive secrets from the past will be exposed--or how deeply they will fall for each other. In this suspenseful page-turner, bestselling author Elizabeth Goddard keeps you on the edge of your seat as you discover that uncommon justice lies just on the other side of fear.…

Always Look Twice

by Elizabeth Goddard

Overall Book Review:

Always Look Twice is the second book of the Uncommon Justice Series.  This book follows the story of another of the McKade brothers.  Those who read the first book in the series will be happy to learn there is a story about Heath McKade.

This story is interesting and crazy all at the same time.  There are a lot of unusual twists and turns in the plot.  It seems things are headed a certain direction and then there is something new revealed.  Elizabeth Goddard does a nice job of getting readers involved with her characters and helping the readers to invest emotionally.

Perhaps more than anything the reader will feel remorse for the sad, lonely childhood of Harper Reynolds.  As her story unfolds, it becomes even sadder.  Somewhere out there is an obsessed person who will stop at nothing to prevent others from finding out what he or she did.  It makes for an exciting ride and will leave a reader to ponder on all that happens in the book.
