My review
Missing at Christmas by Deena Alexander is an exciting, page-turning Love Inspired Suspense! I always enjoy reading Alexander’s books and a Christmas setting…well, that’s just the icing on the cake!
Have you ever thought about kids born into a crime family? It’s not like they chose their parents. When they’re young, they probably have no idea that members of their family are criminals! That’s the case with Lexi and her sister Gia. They loved their dad and had fun with him when they were kids. However, as they got older, Lexi learned that she was supposed to “take the reins” one day. She took her sister and got them away, but eventually, things brought them back on their dad’s radar. That got Gia killed and one of Gia’s twins kidnapped, and this brought Noah into Lexi’s life. Noah has his own issues with Lexi’s family, but he doesn’t blame Lexi for her dad’s actions.
This story was so exciting and suspenseful! I loved the snowy Montana setting that they headed to from New York. Snow always makes things more treacherous! The author has so much talent when it comes to describing settings! I always feel like I’m right there in the book, and I felt that freezing cold air blowing in my face as Noah and Lexi were zipping through the snow on snowmobiles! The characters are well-written, and their emotions will really get to you! I loved this whole story, but I especially loved the epilogue of this one!
I highly recommend Missing at Christmas! It’s got so much suspense, great characters, events that you won’t see coming, and an inspirational message of putting your trust in God.
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.

Searching for Answers
By Lexi McKenna
I guess I’ve always known my past would catch up with me sooner or later, but I never expected my own sister to make the mistake that cost us everything. Well, it cost her more, since she was murdered the instant she came out of hiding. And I arrived at her house moments too late to save her, or her infant daughter the killer took as a hostage. He did leave behind her twin, though. So now, I have to care for one baby and keep her safe while searching for whoever took the other. And the only person who could help me, the crime boss father I fled from years before, refuses.
But when I’m attacked in my sister’s home, and I’m battling for my life, a stranger intervenes. Noah Thompson claims he works for Jameson Investigations, a private security company. He also claims he was just keeping an eye on my sister’s home after he found her leaving my father’s house with her twins. And that was her fatal mistake.
According to Noah, my father murdered his brother but was never caught. He claims he’s been searching for a way to take him down ever since. True? I can’t be sure. With my father trying to force my hand, to manipulate me into taking his place as head of the Cipriana Crime Family, I don’t trust anyone.
Now, I have no choice but to work with Noah and his team at Jameson Investigations to bring my sister’s killer to justice and save her child. Our search takes us from New York City to the mountains of Montana. Unfortunately, someone is trying to stop us. And whoever it is arrives in Montana as well, determined to take both of us out. Now, we’re trying to keep one child alive and find another, all with seemingly well-trained assassins on our heels.
