Review – Deadly Intentions

Research scientist Caitlyn Lindsey is convinced that someone is taking out her team one by one. First, a friend and research partner was killed in a home invasion. Three months ago, her boss died in a suspicious car accident. Four days ago, another partner supposedly committed suicide. And now Caitlyn herself has miraculously survived a hit-and-run. Afraid for her life with nowhere to turn, she reaches out to one of the victim’s husbands, Detective Josh Solomon.

Though initially skeptical about Caitlyn’s theory, Josh soon realizes that the attack that took his wife’s life was anything but random. Now the two of them must discover the truth about who is after Caitlyn’s team–and what their end game is–before it’s too late.

In this nail-biting thriller, award-winning author Lisa Harris will have you believing that there’s no such thing as random.

My thoughts:  DEADLY INTENTIONS, is I think, the first book by Ms. Harris I’ve read, but I may be wrong. She is definitely a very talented author and has written a suspenseful book about bioterrorism. Something I know nothing about. Or very little.

Some of the events seemed  rather implausible. Such as, she attends a funeral for a co-worker, mentions how odd it seems that all her coworkers are dying from random causes and then suddenly she has an attack on her life and is left for dead.

Maybe due to the scientific mindset of  the female lead (which seemed realistic), I had a hard time relating to her and couldn’t identify with her. I also had a hard time caring for her. I loved Josh though and my heart ached for him. However, the suspense was top-notch, there were plenty  of unexpected twists, and I was kept guessing. I never did guess who-dun-it until it was  revealed.

If you like romantic suspense with a bioterrorism bend, then you’ll want to read DEADLY INTENTIONS. I wouldn’t say it kept me on the edge  of my seat but it did keep me guessing.
