About the Book

A killer is hunting, seeking her…

When a criminal threatened to kill Megan Cash if she testified against him, she didn’t back down and made sure her testimony put this killer behind bars. Years later, he’s out of prison and ready for revenge against Megan and her critically ill daughter. Megan does the only thing she can do with a child too ill to move. Stand her ground at the hospital to protect her daughter.

Will he succeed in making this a Christmas she won’t live long enough to enjoy?

Soon, Reid Maddox, former FBI agent and Shadow Lake Survival owner arrives to help, and Megan doesn’t have to go it alone. If she chooses the help of the man she once dated. Their relationship ended badly and she isn’t eager to get involved with him again even in a platonic way. But Reid isn’t the same man she once knew—he’s now a widowed father with a harrowing past and a heart more guarded than ever. Still, he’s the only one who believes Megan when she says she’s in danger, and he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her and her daughter out of this killer’s clutches. With her daughter’s life on the line, she has no choice but to turn to him for help.

Danielle’s Review

I received a complimentary copy of this book.
I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own. I am disclosing this in accordance with FTC guidelines.


Shadow of Truth by Susan Sleeman is the third book in her Shadow Lake Survival series.

This is a romantic suspense story with all the Christmas feels. Because what tugs at the heartstrings more than danger, romance, and children during the holidays.

I can’t imagine having an ill child at Christmas, like Megan Cash in this story. And then having lives at risk from a bad guy? It is no wonder Reid Maddox jumped in to help! I’ve been excited to learn more about his story after seeing him in the last two books. The way their second-chance romance developed was so sweet!

If you enjoy Christmas romantic suspense set at Christmas, then give this one a read!
