About the Book Two Seconds Too Late

In the stark but beautiful wilds of northern New Mexico, a luxury spa and couple’s retreat turns into a chilling nightmare when a woman vanishes without a trace, just hours after a public fight with her boyfriend. Worried something sinister has happened, her friends reach out to investigator Riley MacLeod, an expert skip tracer, for help. The assignment means going undercover at the retreat, which means pairing up with private investigator Greyson Chadwick. Their partnership ignites a tumultuous mix of attraction and distrust as Riley’s unorthodox methods clash with Greyson’s meticulous approach.

As they delve deeper into the case and a ruthless hitman is unleashed upon them, Riley and Greyson find themselves fighting not only for justice but for their very survival. Staying one step ahead of danger, the pair discovers a hidden truth that rocks them to the core. In their race against the clock, they can only hope that they’re not too late.

With her signature pulse-pounding twists, Dani Pettrey weaves a gripping tale of love and survival in the face of unimaginable danger.

My Thoughts on Two Seconds Too Late

First, this is the second book in a series.  If you haven’t read the first book, you really should.  It’s not necessary to read it to understand and love this book, but it will definitely give you a little extra backstory.  I’m always a fan of reading two books instead of one whenever possible.  

Secondly, you’re going to need book three as soon as you finish this one.  Trust me.  I did.  And it’s not ready yet!  I’m so sad to miss out.  But you know what that means?  It means I’ll be reading three books when the third one releases because I will re-read books one and two before I read book three. 

Okay.  So book one follows one of the brothers, Christian MacLeod.  This is book two, and it follows his sister, Riley.  Plus, their investigative services firm.  Christian, Riley and their other brother, plus their friend Greyson, who does their desk work.  Greyson and Riley have an interesting relationship in that they love to spar and tease each other.  Greyson is older than Riley and has some past that he does not share freely. 

Riley is struggling with having recently killed a man when this book starts. 

The mystery is when a friend goes missing.  A mutual friend reaches out to Riley to investigate and find their friend because she’s sure some foul play is involved.  

When investigating this disappearance, it appears hit men are out to get Riley and Greyson!  Add in the mysterious key that Riley thinks this friend left for her to guard, and it just starts moving super fast.  You won’t want to stop reading.  I know I didn’t.  I might have stayed up way too late finishing this novel.  It moves super fast.  And the ending gives you a twist that leaves you wanting the third book as well.  And a character from book one pops back up as well. 

Grab your copy!  This series is amazing, and I cannot wait to read more!
