About the Book
Small town scandal. International terrorist attack. Who among them is the traitor?

Sara and Beth have built a multi-million dollar business together, but their once solid friendship is now strained. Beth is leery of Sara’s husband, and when he is kidnapped, authorities consider Beth their prime suspect.

Then, their small town of Seagrove Village is rocked by an act of terrorism, and Beth doesn’t know who to trust. Someone she knows is linked to the attack, but who? Is there a connection to Crossroads Crisis Center? In the midst of the confusion and fear, Beth finds herself attracted to a man from her past. She knows she shouldn’t fall in love with him, but she can’t resist or even explain their bond. As her world unravels around her, she wonders, is it possible to be beyond redemption?

My Thoughts
Suspenseful from the beginning to the end, Not This Time by Vicki Hinze will keep you turning pages to see what happens next. I didn't realize when I started that this was the third book in the series, and it would probably have helped me understand a bit more about what was going on in the beginning. However, several chapters in, I was caught up on the past and totally into the book. I can't really summarize the plot without giving key things away, but let me say that I didn't figure out what was going on until the very last few pages. Not This Time was intensely suspenseful with a perfect blend of romance, and I look forward to reading more from Vicki in the future! [4 stars]

I received a free copy of this book from WaterBrook Multnomah's Blogging for Books program in exchange for my fair and honest review.
