Her Best Friend’s Keeper by Calle J. Brookes

TEN YEARS. THREE MONTHS. SIXTEEN DAYS. —That was how long it had been since she had felt safe. As a teenager Gabby Kendall witnessed the execution of her best friend's family. Those images haunt her every day. Now... Now the killers are back. They know who she is, where she lives, and who her friends are. They know everything about her... He has the TSP to run, and a woman to protect... Police Chief Elliot Marshall had lost almost his entire family when they'd been murdered ten years ago. Now he is back in Finley Creek, searching for the killers. He won't stop until he has the answers--and the killers behind bars where they belong. When the threat gets far too close to Gabby, Elliot makes a vow. He isn't about to let anyone hurt the woman who had been his murdered sister's best friend. The only place she feels safe is next to him. But the price of that safety may be someone else close to her. Close to him. And one thing is clear: they can't lose someone else they love like that ever again... HER BEST FRIEND’S KEEPER is the first book in the Finley Creek: Marshall Murders trilogy and is a full-length romantic suspense novel. The Finley Creek series contains a large cast of characters, multiple scenes of violence, adventure, dark criminal behavior, cursing by heroes, heroines and villains, a few mild-to-moderate love scenes, and references to subject matter that may distress some readers, including assaults, abductions, mass shootings, child abuse and other dark themes.
