A homicide detective’s violent family history repeats itself in #1 Amazon Charts and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Melinda Leigh’s novel of murder, secrets, and retribution.
For more than twenty-five years, Philadelphia homicide detective Bree Taggert has tucked away the nightmarish childhood memories of her parents’ murder-suicide…Until her younger sister, Erin, is killed in a crime that echoes that tragic night: innocent witnesses and a stormy marriage that ended in gunfire. There’s just one chilling difference. Erin’s husband, Justin, has vanished.
Bree knows how explosive the line between love and hate can be, yet the evidence against her troubled brother-in-law isn’t adding up. Teaming up with Justin’s old friend, former sheriff’s investigator and K-9 handler Matt Flynn, Bree vows to uncover the secrets of her sister’s life and death, as she promised Erin’s children. But as her investigation unfolds, the danger hits close to home. Once again, Bree’s family is caught in a death grip. And this time, it could be fatal for her.

Review of Cross Her Heart
Cross Her Heart is about a family, two sisters and a brother, who's father killed their mother in a fit of rage.
Twenty-five years later Bree Taggart, now a Philadelphia homicide detective, sister Erin is murdered. Erin's husband Justin is the main suspect.
Bree teams up with Justin's old friend, a former sheriff's investigator who is also a K-9 handler Matt Flynn. Matt does not believe that Justin would kill his wife, Bree is more skeptical but is determined to find Justin as he is missing.
There is also the problem of what happens to Erin's two children, Does Bree get custody or their father, who is not a reliable person, has never been part of the kids' lives.
This story is the first in a series. A book that is easy to read, suspenseful enough to keep the reader interested. Believable characters and a great plot. I totally enjoyed the story and look forward to reading the next one by Melinda Leigh!
I was given a copy of the book for review purposes only.
