Holly Cramer’s past choices have finally caught up to her, but she never expected them to endanger her baby.

Though Holly’s stumbled through most of her adult life as a party girl, she longs to live a more stable life for her daughter. Then police show up to question her about the whereabouts of Creed Kershaw, Lily’s father. She has kept his identity a secret from friends and family—she never even told him about the pregnancy. Now he’s a person of interest in a drug-related murder case.

Determined to keep him out of their lives and turn him over to police, Holly uses her private investigating skills to search for him. But her bravado backfires when he turns the tables and takes her and the baby hostage. As desperate hours tick by, Holly realizes his connection to Leonard Miller—the man who has gunned down several members of her family. Creed claims he’s innocent and that Miller is after him too. His gentleness with Lily moves her, but she can’t trust a man who has held her at gunpoint . . . even if he reminds her so much of herself.

Dangers old and new threaten Holly and her baby, and lives are demanded as sacrifices for love. Through a complex web of mistakes and regret, redemption is the one hope Holly has left to hold on to.

MY THOUGHTS

Oh my. Terri Blackstock has brought this series to a magnificent close with Twisted Innocence. I loved the first two books, Truth-Stained Lies and Distortion (click the titles for my reviews), and this one completes the trilogy with Holly's story. Although it can easily be read as a standalone, a thread that began in the first novel and continued in the second continues and is resolved in Twisted Innocence. Blackstock packs this story with action and emotion, and I squirmed when I realized how much I can be like Juliet and Cathy as they assume the worst about Holly. Tension and danger war with hope and redemption in this captivating novel. I couldn't put it down and read it in almost one sitting. Don't miss this book and series!
