Hooked

By Stephanie Sanders

Description:

A FAMILY VACATION.
A SECRET RELATIONSHIP.
A STALKER IN THE SHADOWS.
Lexi Martin thought the Outer Banks would be a refuge—an escape from her anxiety and the ache of long-distance love. A place of peace carried in on the familiar Hatteras tides.
But then the messages begin. An anonymous admirer. Photographs taken too close for comfort. Someone is watching. Someone who always seems one step ahead.
At the same time, an old friend steps back into her life. His steady presence stirs up the past, forcing Lexi to face memories she thought she’d buried.
Danger escalates and now Lexi is caught between a secret relationship, a stalker in the shadows, and her brother’s best friend. As the secrets multiply and fear threatens to consume her, she questions who she can really trust and whether she can rediscover the faith she’s long abandoned.
Because the stalker isn’t just watching anymore—he’s setting the hook.

Book Takeaway:

No matter our situation, placing our trust in the wrong things will only lead to our downfall. To find true peace, even in the midst of anxiety, we must find refuge in Jesus and place our faith in him.

Why the author wrote this book:

I wrote this book to give hope to women who are in/have been in manipulative relationships, to discuss the dangers of prioritizing other relationships over our relationship with God, and to point all readers to the Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ.
