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.

My family moved into a new house about 9 years ago but no I haven’t started over in a town or state. I’d love to win one of these books. My email danamarie26@gmail.com

Does college count? New job? Still living where I was born but did go away to college. Thanks for the fun list. Becca12901 at yahoo
ReplyDeleteI have a *little* experience with starting over... I have moved over 30+ times in my life and have lived in 11 different states, 4 of them more than once! In my first 14 years of marriage, we moved 12 times! We have now lived in the same city for the past 12 years... it's weird!😂🤣
ReplyDeleteI love so many of the books that you listed, and I am certain I could find a bunch more if I looked back through my read list!
