About the Book

 

Title: Captured in Frame
Author: Laura Thomas
Series: Bite of Betrayal #1
Publisher: Mountain Brook Ink
Release Date: August 5, 2024
Genre: Christian Romantic Suspense

In an idyllic village nestled in the English countryside, photographer Georgia Brooks is desperate to begin a new chapter in her life. Bramble Cottage was supposed to give her space to heal and hope again after suffering betrayal and rejection by the only man she ever loved. This was Georgia’s chance to rekindle her faith and reconnect with her sisters in a place that held sweet childhood memories—not expose herself to the ugly underbelly of the art world and put her family in danger.

Local pediatric surgeon, Doctor William Hughes, is captivated by the Canadian beauty with a camera over one shoulder and the weight of the world on the other. After suffering his own tragic loss and balancing a demanding career with raising a toddler, he recognizes the heaviness of grief . . . and the burden of guilt.

When Georgia discovers she could be in possession of incriminating evidence to frame a criminal ring, she needs to trust someone. She chooses Will. Postcards, photographs, paintings—something about Bramble Cottage is worth killing for. Can Georgia uncover the truth in time?

Book Excerpt

As if framed in a picture, Georgia stood in the doorway, perfectly poised. Shafts of hazy
light glowed behind her silhouette and caught coppery tones in her long, brown hair.

Will closed his gaping mouth.

Dressed in stilettos, a black skirt that hugged her to perfection, and a matching top, she
oozed class and style. When she removed her oversized sunglasses, he caught a heaviness in her
eyes. Pain. Was she still shaken from the break-in at her cottage?

She took one wary step farther inside the foyer and bit her lower lip. A Canadian beauty
with a camera over one shoulder and the weight of the world on the other—what was her story?
He was captivated. Intrigued. For the first time in well over a year, something stirred in his heart.

“Morning, doctor.”
