Review- Girl Lost by Kate Angelo

 Back Cover Copy:

A LOST BABY 
Luna Rosati found acceptance and comfort with her childhood foster family, but when she became pregnant at sixteen, she gave the baby up for adoption and left without a word. Now a CIA counterintelligence officer, Luna wants to reconcile her fractured sense of self by finding the only blood family she has--the teenage daughter she's never met. As Luna closes in on learning the girl's identity with the help of her mentor, Stryker, she prepares to meet him in her old neighborhood--the last place she wants to be. Then Stryker is captured.    

AN INESCAPABLE PAST 
Special Agent Corbin King changed his last name to escape the shadow of his convicted father serving a life sentence. When he runs into Luna, the object of his failed teenage romance, the two must put their pasts aside and work together to expose a secret that someone's willing to kill for. 

A DEADLY THREAT 
But when they encounter a kidnapping, missing bodies, and murder, the secrets Corbin and Luna are keeping from one another are only the beginning of the threat they face with more than their own lives at stake.

I didn't read the back cover copy of this book before starting it, because I wanted to be completely surprised as the story unfolded. From the beginning to the end, the twists in this story kept me turning pages! Different story threads that didn't appear to match at the start wove perfectly together into a tale full of suspense, intrigue, and emotion. 

Without giving away spoilers, I will say that a few of the elements in Girl Lost are ones I haven't often seen in Christian fiction, making the story feel fresh and original. The characters were well developed, and I love that there are more books coming in the series, since the secondary characters are people I want to get to know better. 

I highly recommend Girl Lost to anyone who loves heart-pounding suspense! I can't wait for the next book in the series.
