About this ebook
On his cousin’s Christmas cruise wedding, navy SEAL Jordan Somerton anticipated having the typical best man duties—not facing down criminals boarding the ship. But when the luxury liner is infiltrated by men determined to kidnap the flower girl, he’s plunged into an unexpected mission. Maid of honor and DEA agent Amy Delgado hasn’t forgiven Jordan for a misunderstanding in their past. But with her young niece targeted, she must draw on Jordan’s skills as a protector. Signs point to an inside job. With a traitor in their midst, can they ensure that every passenger returns home safely for the holidays . . . even as they find love amid deepening danger?

Reviews for Christmas Captive
4 ratings1 review
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I think it's tough to do romantic suspense well in the page limit of Love Inspired Suspense, but this one did a good job. The pace of the romance is mitigated by the fact that Amy and Jordan have known each other for a long time and are somewhat reviving a dating relationship that was derailed at some point in the past. The suspense takes off almost from the beginning and continues through most of the book.The "classified" aspects of their work (SEALs, DEA, and Ambassador) means that they don't connect all the dots behind the whys until at about 2/3rds of the way through the book. It also creates a gulf between Amy and Jordan that he can't explain. Both had problems with fathers leaving them as kids. Amy's father made promises that he rarely kept. Jordan's father was a police officer who died in the course of duty, prompting his mother to descend into a depression that she never came back from. So they're both struggling with issues that influence their relationship with each other. .
