If I Want You

When local journalist, Tori Peterson, fails to prevent a child abduction outside her niece’s school,her horror and guilt sparks a vow to do whatever it takes to get little Abby Brady home to her parents.

While Tori battles the vile memories of her own kidnapping as a child, she accepts the help of widowed father, Mark Bolton. As he and Tori join forces with the local police, their attraction and intimacy grows…along with their fears for Abby.

Links are uncovered between Abby’s disappearance and Tori’s kidnapping. Tori is forced to accept the monster who held her captive is back. But this time, Tori is all grown up, and there is no way she will let him hurt another little girl.

MY REVIEW

Tori Peterson’s world is turned upside down when she witnesses a child abduction and fails to stop Abby Brady being taken. She has her own very personal reasons for wanting this young girl to be found. As a child of a similar age, Tory was abducted and the two cases appear to be strangely similar.

Tori uses her journalistic skills to get to the bottom of this case. She reluctantly accepts the help of Mark, a widowed single father whose daughter goes to the same school. Mark ‘s first instinct is to protect Tori, then his feelings become stronger and a romantic storyline begins to surface.

I admired Tori’s single-mindedness, determination, and downright guts. She put up a shield of prickliness but inside was a person who was deeply hurt and desperately needing to be loved. I just wanted Mark to take care of Tori and put some of his own demons to bed.

Rachel Brimble hits the ground running with this romantic suspense novel and keeps the pace going throughout. I love a whodunnit, and this one certainly keeps you guessing.

Many thanks to Rachel from Rachel’s Random Resources and the author for providing a review copy.
