Review & Giveaway: Hit 'N Run by Lori Power


Hit ‘n Run
by Lori Power

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BLURB:

Determined to build a better life, and forget their past, a freak accident crashes Lorna Tymchuk and Mitch Morgan back into each other’s lives.

It’s more than a “Hit ’n Run” that needs to be taken care of at the police station. False identification, miscommunication and a past better left buried surface to plunge these recently reunited lovers into a deadly game of cat and mouse trying to figure out who the bad guys really are.

All threads pulled threaten the very fabric of their fragile relationship. Caught between desire suspicions, each must decide who to trust and how far to go to follow their instincts.

My Review:




It's a really compelling story, engaging, that captures you from the first page. It 's so full of twists, mystery, unpredictable until the end and there is also much romance. The chemistry between the two protagonists, Lorna and Mitch, is really strong and their relationship will be put to the test. Mitch is playing an important and dangerous undercover operation. Lorna is a single mother who is trying to best develop her business. Lorna and Mitch collide in an accident, and their lives will be changed forever.
This is a fast-paced action thiller, interlaces with suspense and romance, with strong characters and a story plot that will keep you guessing until the end. The writing is smooth, and the pages fly by effortlessly.
This was my first time reading a book by this author, and I can say with complete certainty that it will not be my last! I can not wait to read the book 2!
I received an advanced reader copy from the author in exchange for an honest review.

EXCERPT:


“And the driver of the hearse just drove off?”

The question of why bother to complete a report if the officer was just going to recap every point, by point, blinked like a neon sign behind her lids. “No, as I wrote, right here.” She pointed to another neatly printed line on the statement. “The man got out to see if I was okay. . .”

The policeman rested an elbow on the counter and smirked. “Nice of him.”

“I guess,” she agreed, forcing a lift to her lips, putting on her best salesman face. “Listen, the man left me his driver’s license. Said an emergency called him away.”

“Emergencies can happen in the funeral business, I imagine.” He lifted his gaze to meet hers, brow furrowed. ‘so, a polite runner then?”

Inhaling deeply, Lorna forged on. “I want to talk to you about that, actually.”

The constable stared, barely blinking, so she blurted. “It’s a fake.”

“What’s a fake?”

“The driver’s license,” she confirmed through tight lips.

“How would you know?”

“I didn’t recognize him at first with the beard and everything.” Oh, God, she was rambling. Get a grip. Lorna took a shaky breath. “I know–once knew–the driver I hit. His name is Mitchell Morgan, not Michael Ward as is written here. The picture on this license,” she said moving her own hand to cover the license on the counter, “is him, but that’s not his name. This,” she paused to tap the document with her fingernail, “is a fake.”

“How can you be sure?” His murky brown eyes met hers, clearly skeptical.

She glanced at the picture again, the tips of her fingers still touching the edge of the laminated surface. How could she explain the fact she would never be able to forget Mitchell Morgan’s midnight-blue eyes? Those same expression-filled eyes with just a hint of mischief couldn’t be disguised. “I’m sure.”
