**Book Review- The Deadly Shallows (Coastal Guardians #3) by Dani Pettrey

    

Mystery & Thrillers Romance

Description

A mass shooting.
A stolen weapon capable of immense destruction. 
A painful secret that threatens to tear two hearts apart.

CGIS Agent Noah Rowley is rocked to the core when he learns of a mass shooting raging on his Coast Guard base. He and his team stop the attack, but not before numerous innocent lives are lost. Furious and grief-stricken, he determines to do whatever is needed to bring the mastermind behind the attack to justice.

Coast Guard flight medic Brooke Kesler evacuates the scene of the shooting in a helicopter carrying the only surviving gunman. Gravely wounded, the man whispers mysterious information to Brooke that immediately paints a target on her back.

As Brooke and Noah race to uncover answers, emotions between them ignite. Noah struggles to protect Brooke at all costs and to conceal the secret that prevents him from becoming what he longs to be--the right man for her.

Everything is at stake as a horrifying truth emerges. . . .

The mass shooting wasn't the end game. It was only the beginning.

4.5  STARS 

This was a riveting, clean story that was also totally unpredictable. Noah and Brooke took the lead as good main characters.  Not only trying to figure out the evil plots but also their friendship.  Is it more than just friendship or not?

Noah's other team members are excellent and even though he is their leader it's more like friends/family too.  In fact his sister Gabby sometimes helps were she can.  She is Brooke's closest friend and they are tight.  Gabby is clearly cheering for her brother and best friend to become a couple.

There is another romance sparking between a couple other people.  But Austin and Caleb take second place when it comes to second place.  They were both great at their jobs but funny too.

If you're not a Christian don't let that stop you from this Christian story.  Why?  Because it really is that good. Plenty of action to keep things interesting. 

Liked the ending and the Epilogue too.  Part of the Epilogue made me smile. A good way to end a book I think.
