My review

Imagine finding out that your late husband wasn’t who you thought he was, and to make matters worse, you and your child are in danger because of his actions. That’s the predicament in which Dr. Chelsea Eidman finds herself 16 months after her husband’s death. Chelsea and her 4 year old daughter are in the mob’s sights because her husband was part of a diamond heist, and those diamonds belonged to the Albanian mob. When Chelsea’s daughter is kidnapped, Matt, an old friend, steps in to help. He’s especially invested in this kidnapping because his pregnant sister was taken as well.

I really enjoyed Kidnapped for Ransom’s fast-moving plot, and it had me up past bedtime! Having a deadline to find the diamonds, get them to the “bad guys,” try to keep the FBI informed without anyone finding out, and being chased through the forest kept me turning the pages!

The characters were very realistic, and I enjoyed the second chance, friends to more tropes. The slow burn romance was sweet, and I liked that the author acknowledged the fact that Chelsea and her late husband had really loved each other in spite of his flaws (which Chelsea only found out about later).

Chelsea reclaimed her lost faith in God while searching for her daughter and the diamonds. It was through Matt’s prayers and reassurances of God’s love that she was able to do so. I think Love Inspired Suspense lovers will really like this book, and I recommend it!

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.
