Counter Point

By Marji Laine

Description:

Her dad's gone, her diner's closing, and her car's in the lake. Cat McPherson has nothing left to lose ... except her life. And a madman, bent on revenge, is determined to take that, as well. Her former boyfriend, Ray Alexander, returns as a hero from his foreign mission, bringing back souvenirs in the form of death-threats. When several attempts are made on Cat’s life, she must find a way to trust Ray, the man who broke her heart.

Keeping Cat safe from a fallen cartel leader might prove impossible for Ray, but after seeing his mission destroyed and hearing of the deaths of several godly people, he knows better than to ignore the man’s threats. Cat’s resistance to his protection and the stirring of his long-denied feelings for her complicate his intentions, placing them both in a fight for their lives.

How can a small-town girl survive when ultimate power wants her dead?

Book Takeaway:

There is no power on earth that can divert the Lord's will, despite how formidable the opponent may seem.

Why the author wrote this book:

I write about broken characters struggling against insurmountable odds, but depending on God for His sustaining help. My hope is that real people, overwhelmed by life, will identify with my characters and find their faith reignited to their First Love.
