Review: Dead Drift

Dead Drift

"Burning debris littering the ground . . . smoke pluming in the acrid air . . . this is just the beginning if he fails.

Seven years ago, operative Luke Gallagher vanished to become part of an elite team set on capturing a deadly terrorist. When Luke returns to face those he left behind, their help becomes his only hope of stopping his target's latest threat of an attack that would shake America to its core.

Private investigator Kate Maxwell never stopped loving or looking for Luke after he disappeared. But she also never imagined he left her or his life by choice. Now he's back, and together they must unravel a twisting thread of secrets, lies, and betrayal, all while on the brink of a biological disaster. 

Will they and their love survive, or will Luke and Kate become the terrorist's next mark?"

I continuously say that I hate reading series out of order...yet I find myself doing it again and again. 😷 That was the case with this book. 'Dead Drift' is book FOUR in a series...and I grabbed it before I read any of the other books. 

That being said...MAN THIS BOOK WAS GREAT! 
There were a *few* spots were reading books 1-3 would definitely have come in handy, but I honestly didn't feel like I missed out on a ton. Who knows maybe I did, but just don't know it. I didn't feel a huge disconnect.

I really enjoyed Luke and Kate's relationship. Since they had dated before they did have their moments of butting heads, but I loved them all the more for it. 

Every character in this book (series as a whole I'm guessing?) had SUCH an amazing walk with God. He was the first person they turned to when life got tough, or too much to handle. 

Not only were their relationships with God strong, but their relationships with each other. Even though Luke had been gone for 7 years they all just flowed nicely together.

Yes I read the series out of order... 😔😖 That doesn't mean I didn't get anything out of the story. I LOVE stories of friends and big families, this is everything I'm looking for. THIS BOOK got me SO excited to backtrack and read the series...the RIGHT way!

The action was great, Dani kept me guessing. AND I loved the little emotional side-trip we took...it was beautifully done.

I seriously enjoyed Dani's writing style, and the "family" she created.
I rated this a 4.5/5 stars.

Quotes:

He'd faced down armies, suicide bombers, and spies, but walking back into what had once been his world was terrifying.
