Off the Map: In the Shadow Book 1, a Christian Romantic Suspense (Where Danger Finds You: a Southern California Romantic Suspense Series)

She thought it was the family road trip she'd always wanted. He saw the chance to win back the girl he never got over. Neither of them counted on the man following their every mile.

Allie Ellis likes her life neat, predictable, and under control, which is exactly what it stops being the night her high school crush walks back into it. Steve Collins is everything teenage Allie used to dream about, and now mutual friends have somehow recruited the handsome detective onto her family's long-planned road trip. Weeks on the road. The same itinerary. Nowhere to hide. Allie isn't sure her heart can survive that much time beside a man she never quite got over.

Collins let Allie slip away once. He's regretted it ever since, and this trip is the second chance he doesn't intend to waste. He just has to convince a woman who plans for everything that some risks are worth taking.

But the two of them aren't the only ones with plans for this trip. A man with nothing left to lose has fixed on someone in their group, and he's tracking their route mile by mile, patient, calculating, and certain this road ends right where he wants it. As the scenery turns wild and remote, the distance between Allie and Collins closes, and so does the gap between them and the danger at their backs.

Out here, far from home and farther from help, they'll have to trust each other, and trust that God is still steering even when the road runs straight toward the edge.

Tropes:

• second chance romance
• a road trip turned deadly
• the one who got away
• slow-burn romance

• a stalker on their trail
• and faith for the long road.
