About the Book:
The New York Times bestselling author of Every Dark Corner returns to Baltimore, where a father-daughter reunion puts innocent victims in the sights of a stone-cold killer…
Baltimore PI Clay Maynard routinely locates missing children for clients, but his own daughter—stolen by his ex-wife—has eluded him for years. Until she turns up right under his nose…
Since she was a child, Taylor Dawson believed the lie her mother told her: that her father was a monster. But now she has a chance to get to know the real Clay while doing real work as an equine therapist, which includes helping two girls whose mother was brutally murdered. She might even find something deeper with her boss’s handsome son, Ford Elkhart, whose eyes are so haunted. But just as Taylor feels her life opening up to new family, work, and friends, a danger lurks in the darkness—one that will show Taylor the face of true evil…

My Review:
Karen Rose
never disappoints me! I loved reading
Monster in the Closet. Once again, this
book had it all. There was suspense,
action, intrigue and romance... the kind of romance that gives you tingles.
Jazzie
Jarvis is an eleven year old girl who is traumatized after seeing her mother
brutally murdered by her father. Her
father, Gage Jarvis, doesn't know that little Jazzie was hiding behind a chair. Now before you cringe away and think that you
can't read this because it is all so horrific, let me tell you that the way
this story comes together will keep you turning those pages, praying for a
happy ending... but I'm not giving away too many spoilers here.
Along comes
Taylor Dawson, recently graduated with a degree in psychology, who has accepted
an internship with Healing Hearts with Horses, an equestrian center
specifically developed to help trauma victims.
But Taylor has a few secrets of her own.
Taylor is able to connect with Jazzie in a way no one else has been able
to. Will she be able to get Jazzie to
talk about what had happened to her? Or
will Jazzie just remain quiet and continue to protect and hover over her little
sister Janie? And what happens when Gage
realizes that there may be a witness to the murder?
Add in the
boss' hunky son, Ford Elkhart, who is immediately attracted to Taylor, and also
add in Clay Maynard, head of security at Healing Hearts who has been looking
for his daughter for many years, and you have the basic ingredients for one
very fascinating story. But this story
is anything but basic! Lots of action
and lots of plots that all intertwine. I
could not put this book down!
There are so
many characters that you can't help but love, and also those you
love-to-hate. But even those that you
hate are so well developed that you are able to see their motivation for what
evil things they do... all because of the great writing skills of Karen Rose.
I highly
recommend this book.
