Because You're Mine - Book Review

Colleen Coble is one of my favorite authors and her newest book Because You're Mine reaffirmed why.  This book has it all.  Mystery, love, suspense, faith, hope...so many emotions, and as always I was kept guessing to the end. You don't have to worry about a saggy middle.  This book will keep you eagerly turning pages until the very end.

If you are a fan of Contemporary Christian suspense novels then this book is for you.  Even if this is not your normal genre I would encourage you to give it a chance.  I used to only read Historical Romance and it's books like this one that has me looking and enjoying other genres.

Alanna has been plagued by tragedy.  So it should come as no surprise that in the beauty that surrounds Charleston, all is not as it seems.

When her husband is killed by a car bomb while their band is on tour in Charleston, Alanna doesn't know where to turn.  Her father-in-law is threatening to take custody of the baby she carries, but the one thing she knows for sure is that she can't lose the last piece of Liam she has left.

Their manager offers her a marriage of convenience to gain her U.S. citizenship and allow her to escape her father-in-law's control.  it seems like the perfect solution, but her doubts begin almost as soon as she arrives at Barry's family home, a decaying mansion surrounded by swamp.

To make matters worse, Liam's best friend survived the car bomb.  She's never really liked Jesse and now she can't seem to get away from him.  When he takes Liam's place in their band, it's almost more than she can bear.

But then things start happening.  Things that could easily cost Alanna her life - or the life of her unborn child.  Are they merely coincidences? Or is there something much more sinister at work?
