Moving Day Mysteries: Romantic Suspense Heroes and Heroines Starting Over
Book characters move for a variety of reasons. The same is true in Christian Romantic Suspense. I recently moved from Wyoming to South Dakota, so I thought it would be fun to share a list of "Moving Day Mysteries", Christian romantic suspense novels where the hero or heroine has recently moved to a new location whether that be to buy or inherit a new house, start a new job, or hide from the bad guys ...
One of the quickest ways to make a romantic suspense protagonist vulnerable is to put them somewhere unfamiliar. Whether they're inheriting a long-forgotten house, buying a fixer-upper, relocating for work, or seeking refuge from the past, they begin the story without the safety net of trusted neighbors and established routines. That's exactly when danger likes to strike.
#1- The House on Foster Hill by Jaime Jo Wright
#2- Gazing into Darkness by Heidi Glick
#3 - The Girl Upstairs by Jessica R. Patch
#4- Beneath the Surface by Lynn H. Blackburn
#5- Beneath Copper Falls by Colleen Coble
#6- Secrets at Cedar Cabin by Colleen Coble
#7- Targeted in the Swamp by Kerry Johnson
#8- A Caffeine Conundrum by Angela Ruth Strong (Not romantic suspense, but I loved this series.)
#9- The Curious Inheritance of Blakely House by Joanna Davidson Politano
#10- Cold Light of Day by Elizabeth Goddard
