Cold Case Peril by Maggie K. Black is a fantastic, fast-paced story for suspense fans. Micah Landon is a former Marine, but now owns his own business training therapy dogs. When someone tries to run him off the road, Officer Lucy Lopez steps in. She knows someone is after Micah, and together they work to solve a cold case from Micah’s past. Someone doesn’t want them finding out the truth.

I love the danger and pacing for this story – it captured my attention and had me hooked from the beginning. I have a therapy dog, and love that Micah breeds and trains therapy dogs – who doesn’t love golden retrievers running around?!? The theme also resonated with me – Micah tries to help his brother who refuses to accept unconditional love. Overall, this is a great story that checks all the boxes for an exciting must-read romantic suspense.

I listened to the audio version and enjoyed the narrator. It was a male narrator, which was interesting as most romantic suspense narrators are female voices, but it worked for this story and really brought Micah’s character to life.

I’ve never read anything by Maggie K. Black, and after reading Crime Scene Secrets, I want to go back and read all her prior books.

Crime Scene Secrets takes place in a rural mountain setting where Ophelia Clarke is attending a family wedding. When shots are fired at the rehearsal dinner, Ophelia contacts FBI agent Kyle West. She knows he’s close by (a classic scene, I won’t spoil it) and he arrives to help her process the scene. But they soon realize that there is a murderer on the loose.

This story has it all – action, suspense, heart, grit, intrigue, lovable characters, a working dog, and a touch of humor. I love the meddling aunt trying to set up Ophelia. I also listened to this one on audio and I loved the narrator! She made the story come to life. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves romantic suspense.
