- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5"Desperate Escape" by Lisa Harris is escapist fiction at its best. You can't go wrong with any book by Ms. Harris and this one is no exception. Starting off with a bang and continuing through one mishap and adventure to another, this book is non-stop action. Throughout the story, we are treated to the blossoming romance between two unlikely soulmates - a bomb defuser and a doctor sacrificing her time and talents to help those in the republic of Guinea-Bissau. Both are familiar with danger and a day-to-day existence and even though their mutual attraction stems from a young age, they still have trouble figuring out if a permanent relationship will work.
One of the things I love about Lisa Harris's writing is her strong and vibrant faith and the way she seamlessly weaves the main characters (and minor characters, as well) relationships with God into the story. She is one of my favorite inspirational and Christian authors and her talent and story-telling are absolutely stellar. I would highly recommend this book, as well as any others she has written.
**I received a free copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review** - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This book had really good suspense and great romance. I loved Dr. Mad die Gilbert who is kidnapped and Grant Reese who races to rescue her. They were friends growing up and when Grant hears from her parents that she had been kidnapped he drops everything to rescue her. There are a little t of twists and turns and it is a great read. I received this book from the author for a fair and honest opinion..
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5First, let me say that Lisa Harris always delivers books with non-stop action and plenty of sparks between the main characters. In her latest novel from Love Inspired Suspense, Desperate Escape, she has both in abundance. The book also reflects her passion and love for Africa and its people. So if you are looking for a quick, suspenseful read with a swoon-worthy hero and a heroine who can hold her own, then check out this recommended book.Dr. Maddie Gilbert didn’t want a run-of-the-mill medical practice in the United States. She wanted to make a difference in the lives of those affected by poverty and disease. But she gets more than she bargains for when she is kidnapped and forced to care for drug traffickers. Grant Reese is a deminer who is no stranger to danger. When he learns his best friend’s sister is in trouble, then he is determined to save her.Both of the main characters in Desperate Escape are strong, stubborn and not afraid to meet challenges. Neither wants to play it safe, yet are not sure they can commit to relationships when danger lurks just around the corner. They face a number of challenges — escape from a drug trafficking ring, a sinking ferry boat and corrupt government officials, both US and foreign. Yes, this book is action-packed. It is also a great look at a West African nation many in the US know little about. I could easily picture the remote beauty of the islands of Guinea-Bissau, as well as the dire living conditions in which the people find themselves. Cholera and malaria are everyday diseases there. Harris knows Africa (she and her family serve as missionaries in southern Africa), and her love for the people is apparent. The realism of this exotic locale adds depth to the book.Desperate Escape was definitely not a Christmas book, but its time frame of the weeks leading to Christmas added to my after-Christmas reading experience. This one is a perfect choice for those looking for suspense, romance and a quick read.Recommended.Audience: adults.(Thanks to the author for a review copy. All opinions expressed are mine alone.)
