Dani Pettrey

In One Wrong Move, Christian O’Brady is called in to help investigate a local gallery heist since he’s the one who installed the security system. A man with a rough childhood and a checkered past, Christian has turned his life around and is trying to help prevent crimes that he might have once committed himself. Andi Forester, an insurance investigator, is also on her way to investigate the heist. A former FBI forensics investigator, Andi is trying to rebuild her life after a scandal left her reputation in shambles. As the two team up to investigate the crime, it quickly becomes clear that this is much more than it first appeared. And trying to get to the bottom of things may turn deadly for Christian and Andi.

Like other Dani Pettrey books I’ve read, I found this book to be well-paced and full of action. There are multiple story lines involved which adds to the depth of the characters. Both Christian and Andi are likable characters, and they have great chemistry. The story has turns that the reader doesn’t see coming. One Wrong Move is also a faith-based story and a clean romance. Overall, I really enjoyed this book and remain a fan of Dani Pettrey’s work.

One insurance investigator, one FBI agent, four private investigators, and two cases to solve make for an intense read. While two too-quick romances don't always add up, in this case they are not greater than the suspense so the reading pleasure is not decreased. Bullets are flying everywhere, riddles are dropped as clues, and the investigators travel by land, air, and sea. There is non-stop action as the investigators divide to conquer. Themes of dealing with one's past and forgiving those who caused much grief, even if one of those people is oneself is well-developed. Readers see the contrast between bitterness allowed to take root and becoming a new creature in Christ.

I highly recommend One Wrong Move to fans of romantic suspense. I am grateful to have received a complimentary copy from Bethany House via NetGalley without obligation. All opinions expressed here are my own.… (meer)
