Book 2 in the Undaunted Courage Series, Over the Edge, is a heart pounding thrill ride all the way through. Irene gets better and better with every story she writes. This is definitely at the top of the list for her best.

A personal chef, who is also a trauma survivor hangs on physically and mentally, as she and a police detective seek to find who is continuing to traumatize her.

I received an advanced reader’s copy from Revell and Netgalley. Opinions are my own.

Another fantastic read from Irene Hannon!! This book was a captivating read from the beginning. It has everything a romantic thriller needs for a five star read. Lindsey was a character full of strength and compassion and Jack was her perfect counterpart. She wasn't fully recovered from her first trauma ordeal and she walked right into a murder and she is the sole witness. On top of all that there's someone out there making her question her sanity. Police detective Jack Tucker is immediately taken by her but is stumped as to why she is so cold to him. He is starting to think maybe her mental health is compromised. Yet the more he gets to know the personal chef the more he realizes someone is targeting her. I love when a story totally stumps me and boy was I surprised!! I don't want to give away spoilers so I'm just going to say definitely read this book. With her signature style and her inspirational romantic suspense she definitely has written another awesome book in the series Undaunted Courage. This one is a great romance to boot. All her books have romance but this one just clicked for me. I want to thank Netgalley and Baker Publishing Group for allowing me a free copy for my honest review.

An entertaining page-turner with twists, turns and even a pivot or two that will keep you on your toes. Lindsey is a great character- full of strength and spark- with a compassionate heart. The story moves at a fast pace toward a happy ending with touching moments with friends and family interspersed throughout.

Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for a review.

This book was a compelling, captivating read from the jump. It has all the things you are looking for from a thriller. It's number two in a series, but can definitely be enjoyed on its own. Lindsey and Jack were interesting characters and the mystery within this book was well plotted and paced. It'll make a great fall read if you want something that feels like a thriller without the scariness of a spooky book.

Trauma survivor Lindsey Barnes hasn't fully recovered from the ordeal that almost took her life, and now she's in the middle of another crisis. Not only is she the sole witness in a high-profile murder case, but someone is also pushing her to question her sanity.
Police detective Jack Tucker doesn't know what to make of her story, especially when her elusive enemy leaves no evidence behind to lend credence to her claims. Yet the more he gets to know the appealing personal chef, the more he's convinced someone is targeting not only her sanity, but her life.
And unless they can figure out who is behind the campaign to undermine her credibility, a murderer could slip away--leaving more than one body in his or her wake.
With her signature spellbinding style, the bestselling and award-winning "queen of inspirational romantic suspense" (Library Journal) delivers another riveting tale that will keep you turning pages long into the night.

Over the Edge is the second book in the Undaunted Courage series but can absolutely be enjoyed as a standalone if you have not read the previous book.

Irene Hannon is a must-read author for me. Every time I pick up one of her suspense books, I know I am in for an exciting story that will keep me at the edge of my seat... and this was absolutely no exception. This particular story had a psychological aspect to it that I thought made it really interesting and unique. While there were a few things that I figured out (or at least suspected) earlier on, there were definitely other twists that completely took me by surprise... leaving me wondering what could possibly happen next. I love when a story surprises me like this! I can't say too much more without giving away spoilers, but this one is definitely one you'll want to experience for yourself. I found this to be the perfect blend of romance and suspense... I absolutely couldn't get enough of it. If you enjoy Christian romantic suspense, this is definitely one not to be missed.

I loved this book! It grabbed my attention from the first page and on to the end. I was guessing the whole way through and there was a twist at the end that I never saw coming. I highly recommend this book and all of Irene Hannon’s books. She is one of my favorite romantic suspense authors.

I received this book from the publisher through NetGalley for my honest opinion.

Over the Edge by Irene Hannon is a suspense novel that plays with the heroine's mind. The plot was a little slow going. About sixty percent into the novel, it picked up and became a much better suspense novel. The slow building of the romance between Jack, the hero and detective, and, Lindsey, the heroine felt right for the type of story that it was. I really liked the concept of the villain. I figured out who the bad person was pretty soon. No surprise for me there. As for the setting, it is a typical town with a murder running loose and the cops trying to solve the mystery. I did enjoy seeing Jack trying to solve the mystery. I do enjoy the concept of three foster siblings, and Hannon does a good job at showing their relationship in this novel too. Overall, Over the Edge by Irene Hannon does check off the lists of what a romantic suspense novel needs. A good read for someone who enjoys their suspense novels with a slight edge.

I have read many of Hannon;'s books and this one was just as good. I highly recommend it.

The next in the 'undaunted courage' series, gives us crime, mystery, romance and is a really good read. Irene Hannon's characters are not perfect people but have layered personalities which makes this book interesting. This can be read as a standalone but I warn you that you'll want to read the first book in the series, while waiting rather impatiently for the third book to be written and published.

I enjoyed the psychological aspect of this story and the end reveal. I won't share spoilers but I will say that it was not as obvious as I thought it might be when I started out. I also enjoyed the appearance of previous characters. All in all, a book worth reading.

I receive complimentary books for various sources including, Netgalley, Authors, and other such sources. I am not required to write a positive review and have not received compensation.

Lindsey has survived a traumatic experience and moved to St. Louis to become a personal chef. Her life is getting better until she discovers a murdered client with the killer still in the house. Thankfully Detective Jack Tucker gets the case. Great Christian suspense.

Over the Edge has plenty of twists that kept me guessing! I loved the characters, recognized a couple of names from previous series, and found the mystery and romance complex and riveting. I look forward to Cara’s story next!
