About the Book ~
Playing dead might just get her killed.
FBI Special Agent Lincoln St. John is living his own personal nightmare. When the woman he loves, Allison Radcliffe, is killed, he devotes himself to tracking down the killers and making them pay for their crimes. He expected it to be a challenge. What he never expected was to find Allison very much alive shortly after her "murder."
As his anger and hurt mix with relief, Linc isn't sure how he's supposed to feel. One thing he does know for sure: he and Allison will have to work together to stop a killer before she dies a second time -- this time for good.

My Thoughts ~
Lynette Eason's stories achieve the perfect balance of wholesome romance and jaw-dropping suspense, but I think the author raised her own bar with Vow of Justice! Wow!
The ride Vow of Justice takes you on is nothing short of intense and startling! From the wide array of bad guys to the plethora of complications, I don't think that "twists and turns" even begins to describe the intensity of the storyline. I'd describe it as Indiana Jones running from that boulder that's going to crush him, but then add a Sith Lord about twenty feet ahead of him...While there was a complication I anticipated, the direction this complication went completely shocked me! What a brilliant and well-written angle!
The characters in Vow of Justice were wonderful! I saw Linc as very steadfast. He was steadfast in his faith when he had to forgive Allie for her deception, when he counseled Allie through some difficult moments, and when he was worried for Allie's life -- and that last one happened a lot! He was a rock of support and love for Allie as she opened her heart to him, and a hero like that is most definitely swoony! Additionally, I think Allie's emotional and spiritual journey will impact readers in a powerful way! Not surprising given the title, justice plays an important role in the story. When Allie finally confronted the ghosts of her past, she had to confront the difference between justice and revenge in her heart! And when the circumstances of the present reached a horrific climax, I read in awe as Allie chose to fight back instead of collapsing under the victim mentality that had defined every action of her life for so long! It was -- simply put -- empowering!
Four Stars ~ Vow of Justice by Lynette Eason is a thrilling, romantic ride! Vow of Justice is the fourth book in the author's Blue Justice Series from Revell. While I think readers will get the most enjoyment from reading the previous books in the series, Vow of Justice can definitely be read as a standalone.
