Dani Pettrey Launches a New Romantic Suspense Series
In college, Griffin McCray and his three best friends had their lives planned out. Griffin and Luke Gallagher would join the Baltimore PD. Declan Gray would head to the FBI and Parker Mitchell would go on to graduate school as a crime scene analyst. But then Luke vanished before graduation and their world--and friendships--crumbled.
Now Griffin is a park ranger at Gettysburg, having left life as a SWAT-team sniper when a case went bad. The job is mostly quiet--until the day he captures two relic hunters uncovering skeletal remains near Little Round Top. Griffin just wants the case to go away, but charming forensic anthropologist Finley Scott determines that the body is modern--a young social justice lawyer missing since spring--and all evidence points to the work of an expert sniper. When FBI agent Declan Gray takes over the case, past and present collide. Griffin soon realizes he'll need to confront some of the darkest days of his life if he--and those he cares about--are going to escape a downward spiral of murder that crosses continents.

Entertaining but fell flat of expectation.
By L.R.Smith
Let me first say that I truly enjoy the writing of Dani Pettrey. I am a huge fan of the Alaskan Courage Series, the books were different and filled with well research plots, depth of characters and setting, romance and suspense. Therefore, I was anxiously awaiting the release of this new series to see the new group of characters that Pettrey would introduce to us. The story was good. However, something is missing. It was sort of your typical formula and possessed all the elements that Christian romance novels should have to be enjoyable but there was nothing endearing about the characters. "The brothers" are suppose to be life long friends yet, other than a moment of truth between two of them about a tragic event that happened in the past and the last chapter, we don't see them relating to each other as anything other than co-workers. Finley, the love interest, is strong and intelligent although shortly after the first few chapters her identity is mainly as sidekick/ride-along. Outside of Griffin wanting to be with her to keep her safe, there is no reason for her to be involved in the investigation and her "skills and expertise" are set aside never to be used again. It was sad to see what could have been a great start to a series fall flat.
Do I recommend you read this book? Sure, it's entertaining. Will I read the next in the series? Yes, because I have hope that as the series grows, hopefully, the writing will grow as well. Would I pay $9.99? I think you could wait this out a few months until it drops a little in price. Your not going to miss anything.

cold shot
By My Favorite Pastime
Park ranger Griffin McCray finds a body buried in a Gettysburg cemetery. Unfortunately that body is not part of the Civil War bodies that are buried there. This body is more recent. Finley Scott is called in to identify the remains.
The person who hid the body does not want the remains identified and will do anything within their power to keep evidence from pointing to them, including kill again.
Griffin recognizes the bullet wound in the body as the work of an assassin. Griffin has no desire to work with Finley. She is too attractive and Griffin refuses to let anyone inside of his heart. Finley has a way of winning people over though. Griffin appoints himself as her protector while the murder investigation is underway, it is hard to keep up barriers while spending so much time with Finley.
Both Finley and Griffin have pain in their past that makes them vulnerable and has hurt past relationships. The chemistry between them though is hard to deny and soon those barriers begin to break down. Will Griffin be able to protect Finley from their unseen foe before it is too late?
I think this is a solid start to a new series for Dani Pettrey. I did think that the romance between Finley and Griffin moved too quickly. It seemed like one minute Griffin was stand-offish to Finley(yet attracted to her), and then in the next moment they were so in love there was nobody else on the planet! I felt like I missed a chunk of the story somewhere. I was like, "What? When did that happen?" Other than that I think I am going to like all of the characters in this new series. Looking forward to seeing what happens with Parker, Declan, Ashley, Kate and maybe even finding out what has happened to Luke, the missing "pirate" of the group.

Griffin McCray and his three best friends had their lives planned out

Cold Shot by Dani Pettry
Back cover: In college, Griffin McCray and his three best friends had their lives planned out. Griffin and Luke Gallagher would join the Baltimore Police Department, Declan Grey would head to the FBI, and Parker Mitchell would study to become a crime scene analyst. But then Luke vanished before graduation and their world—and friendship—crumbled.
Now years later, Griffin has left the police force and his friendships behind. Still trying to forget a case that went bad when he was a SWAT team sniper, he’s living a quiet life as a park ranger at Gettysburg. Quiet until skeletal remains are uncovered near Little Round Top—and thay aren’t Civil War-era.
Griffin just wants the case to go away, but a charming forensic anthropologist Finely Scott discovers evidence pointing to the work of an expert sniper. When FBI agent Declan Grey steps in to take over the case, past and present collide. Griffin soon realizes he’ll need to confront some of the darkest days of his life if he—and those he cares about—are going to escape a downward spiral of crime, danger, and murder.
My Review: From the back cover of the book, you might think that Griffin McCray is the main character, but Finley Scott plays a big role in the book also. Griffin and Finley’s time working together—and annoying each other—is about to end, when a skeleton is uncovered one night. They both immediately contact trusted people tell help them get to the bottom of this.
One of the things I didn’t like was that at one point, Finley Scott says that she doesn’t know whether the remains are male or female—but goes on to talk about them as Jane Doe… At one point someone Finley worked with is killed, but it is brushed off. (I think the author could have made the same point by just knocking him unconscious.) Really the only thing that happens to let you know that it is sad, is someone says, “I can’t believe he’s gone.” But then it just carries on like his life didn’t matter—only Jane Doe’s.
At one point Griffin takes Finley to a shooting range. She had never been shooting before, so he told her how, and Finley shot… and hit it dead in the center of the target with the first bullet. I’m not saying that that never happens, but it doesn’t usually happen. (and when having that skill later proves pointless, she might as well had a realistic shooting talent.)
Because Finley seems to be in trouble, Griffin insists that he stay at her house, or she stays at him. Finley agrees to it—but that seem really out of character for her, at least to me. She is super stubborn and determined when it come to everything else and then Griffin—practically a stranger—just declares that this is going to happen? I didn’t like that at all.
Declan Grey works for the FBI, and took charge of the case. For some reason though (which is revealed in the story) none of his bosses or coworkers want to help him. What I didn’t like about that was that he was still able to get all of the warrants that he wanted/needed.
At some points I felt like Ms. Pettrey’s writing was weak, because instead of writing about the character and letting me come to my own conclusions, the obvious was stated…. A lot. Over and over, Griffin would talk about how creepy this person was.
I read this book all in one sitting. (I was in the car for fourteen hours so I had plenty of time to read. ) I think maybe that’s why there was so many things I didn’t like—I didn’t have time to take it all in and process it maybe. But there was that one character that was the key to the case of something, I didn’t remember hearing about him until three fourths of the way through. (but he also played a small role). All in all I’d give this book three out of five stars. I probably wouldn’t go out of my way to read all of Ms. Pettrey’s books, but if I got the opportunity to get them for free I may.
I got this book for free from the publishing company in exchange for an honest review.
