Submerged
Book 1 – Alaskan Courage

A sabotaged plane. Two dead deep-water divers.
Yancey, Alaska was a quiet town…until the truth of what was hidden in the depths off the coast began to appear.
Bailey Craig vowed never to set foot in Yancey again. She has a past, and a reputation–and Yancey’s a small town. She’s returned to bury a loved one killed in the plane crash and is determined not to stay even an hour more than necessary. But then dark evidence emerges and Bailey’s own expertise becomes invaluable for the case.
Cole McKenna can handle the deep-sea dives and helping the police recover evidence. He can even handle the fact that a murderer has settled in his town and doesn’t appear to be moving on. But dealing with the reality of Bailey’s reappearance is a tougher challenge. She broke his heart, but she is not the same girl who left Yancey. He let her down, but he’s not the same guy she left behind. Can they move beyond the hurts of their pasts and find a future together?
Reviews
One of things I look forward to when I pick up a Dani Pettrey book is her cast of characters. Whether they’re a family or a team, she always draws me into the story through them.

I started thinking it was different, and delightfully engaging. I could NOT put it down. Decidedly different, but surprisingly addictive! Love the plot and all the twists. Nothing like I have read before. Highly recommended!

This author is an automatic buy for me and I’m happy to report that she knocked it out of the park once again. This one is filled with so much intrigue that I couldn’t put it down! The balance of romance and mystery/ danger was perfect and I can’t wait until I get to read what happens next with Riley and Deckard.

Dani Pettrey has set the bar high for romantic suspense novels with One Wrong Move (Jeopardy Falls Book #1)! One Wrong Move was my first novel of the year, and I read it in one day. Pettrey has created an engaging plot that grabs your attention from the first sentence.

Exactly what I’ve come to expect from Dani. Lots of threads to unravel, unexpected twists and turns and all the pieces in their place by the end of the story.

Loved this first in what I hope is a long series! Great characters, plot with lots of action and twists I didn’t see coming. Love the faith shown by the main characters as well. A most enjoyable book that I had trouble putting down!
