SCENT OF DANGER is the next to last book in Harlequin's
Love Inspired Suspense series. Each book in the series has
a different author, but Terri Reed has incorporated
people and events from previous stories to help the reader
follow the entire series line. Her main characters are
strong but endearing, and the supporting characters carry
the plot along very well. Both Melody and Parker have trust
issues and try to resolve those as their characters become
better acquainted. The harder they try to convince
themselves that a relationship is not in the future for
them, the more they fantasize about being with each other.
Can you ever trust someone to love you enough? Melody and
Parker draw on their faith to help them overcome their
past. This is a delightful inspirational story about having
enough trust and relying on God to see you through the hard
times. SCENT OF DANGER stands alone as a great read, but
the series tells the whole story. If this is your genre,
you will definitely enjoy SCENT OF DANGER.

haven for dealers. As they risk their lives to save others,
