Denise Masters, who was married to Reid Cote, is back in Coventry just before Christmas, hoping to stay in her newly acquired house for a few months to spend quality time with her eight year old daughter Ella. Reid, who hates her for deserting him and their baby girl to follow her acting career, is not happy with her arrival, especially as she has attracted a shooter.
Jon Donley and his team of bodyguards is sent by her agent to guard her. Jon’s cousin Lake stays with Reid and his new wife, Jacqui, to guard Ella. When Denise starts getting messages about the “starlet slayings”, things get really exciting…..
There is a strong theme of family and relationships running through the book. I like to see how Denise’s relationship with her daughter takes off and the way the little girl loves and accepts all her family, including Jacqui’s parents. Reid is obviously a good father, although he is understandably over protective.
There is a really good Christian message of the forgiveness and acceptance we have in Christ, and the everlasting life He gives to those who turn to Him in repentance. We are reminded that it is only His opinion of us that counts, not what others think or say about us.
The plot is exciting and will keep you on the edge of your chair. The characters are unforgettable and we are drawn into their lives and emotions.
I cannot recommend Wreathed in Disgrace highly enough and am looking forward to the next novel in the series.
