Storm Front Summer Thrillers~ Reader Friday

Storm Front (Summer Thrillers Collection Book 1) is this week’s Reader Friday. Here’s the first paragraph:

“Dallas, Texas.

He was going to kill her. The unsuspecting victim had walked into the office building seconds ago. No idea her business partner was about to do her in.”

But first the photo and verse. When I returned to East Tennessee from Mississippi, these does and their fawns came to say hello. They stood and watched us for a few minutes before moving on. I thought the verse went well with the photo!

Now for Storm Front Summer Thrillers Collection Book 1. All of the stories are great! Here’s the cover and back cover copy with a description of each story:

Four exciting thrillers in one exciting volume. Find out why readers can’t get enough of the Summer Thrillers Collection.

If you Die – Jerusha Agen
Someone has to catch the bad guys. So she does. Before they can kill.
Winter Daniels knows the horror of watching a crime unfold and being helpless to stop it. Innocent lives are stolen every day through senseless violence. It must end. Winter knows how to make that happen.
Through her investigative podcast, Winter hunts down criminals before they commit the crime. But when she discovers a shooter planning to attack the most vulnerable of victims, the case proves more unpredictable and dangerous than she expected. Will she turn to God to halt the countdown to death before someone dies?

The Final Lesson – Mary Alford
When Rowan Hale fled the FBI after her sister’s murder, she thought she’d escaped the killer who destroyed her life. Now, in the remote Alaskan town of Gray Wolf, bodies are appearing-posed, taunting, and tied to a past that was never truly buried. When Supervisory Special Agent Wes Carter arrives with his elite task force, the evidence points to an impossible truth: the wrong man died. As the killer’s methods evolve and his obsession with Rowan deepens, she must face the one lesson she never learned-how to stop a monster who knows her better than anyone.

The Perfect Thriller – Julia Blythe
On a remote Irish bluff, Sloane Mercer, an ambitious young actress, lands the lead in a twisty housemaid thriller movie. A college dropout and disappointment to her family, this role is her chance to prove she can make it.
But inside the brooding seaside mansion, scenes don’t end when they should. Lines blur between fiction and Sloane’s reality. The script changes, yet the other actors deny it, forcing her to question every moment-and herself.
Then the actor playing the murder victim is found on the rocks below-an apparent slip. The production continues with rewrites, casting Sloane’s character as the victim.
As cameras roll, is she part of the cast…or is the stage set for her fall?

What the Water Hides – Kristine Delano
Four former college friends reunite on a remote Maine island to celebrate a long-awaited wedding. What begins as a chance to reconnect quickly unravels when the island turns hostile-power fails, supplies vanish, and the tides turn deadly. It becomes clear someone knows what happened on their last trip together… and wants the truth. As isolation deepens and fear takes hold, each woman is forced to confront the role she played in a tragedy years before. With the tide rising and time running out, they must decide: protect the past… or risk everything to survive.

My take:

All of the stories in this anthology are edge-of-your-seat reads. Exactly what you would expect from these four talented authors. Each story has twists and turns you don’t expect and will keep you flipping pages to find out what happens next.

I highly recommend this faith-filled suspense collection. You can read it in KU or buy it.
