Dr. Cassandra Jones married the love of her life. Both medical Doctors, they lived a fairytale romance until a tragic accident ripped that romantic fairytale to shreds.
She was determined to honour Brian’s memory, and was doing just that until the very handsome, sexy Jed Atwood walked into the medical conference. Something about Jed stirs Cassie in a way she never expected, and what begins as a one-night stand during the conference turns into a whirlwind romance.
Dr. Cassie struggles with her conscience as her relationship with Jed continues; is she being faithful to her beloved husband? All she knows is the attraction between her and Jed is undeniable.
The adventure does not turn out how she expects and she surprises herself with a series of unpredictable actions.
Just as Cassie opens to the possibility of real feelings for Jed, he abruptly vanishes. It’s an unexpected mystery; has he just lost interest? ….has he been kidnapped? Cassie soon discovers he is involved with a sinister group of criminals. Should she walk away or follow her heart into danger’s path?
The first novella of a four part series will pull at your heart strings like a Harlequin and make your heartbeat race with excitement and suspense.
Letting go and moving forward is a painful process that love can soothe
Cassie is a grieving widow experiencing the depths of sorrow on the 3rd anniversary of her husband’s death while attending a medical convention. There she bumps into Jed quite literally and for the first time feels something for a man besides her husband. He’s charming, funny and sexy as sin. Feeling like she is betraying her husband with each encounter, she tries to avoid Jed but he proves unavoidable. Their weekend ends in what she hopes is a one-night stand. Angry with him and most especially herself she races home to collapse in tears of confusion and the sense that she has betrayed her beloved husband.
Jed doesn’t give up though. Days later, he shows up at her clinic and continues to pursue her. After confiding why she reacted as she did, Cassie discovers the compassionate side of Jed. As their relationship and feelings deepens the author hints at a secret Jed is keeping. Mysterious phone calls and unanswered questions have Cassie concerned. Then Jed disappears. This story leaves you hanging and wondering at what will happen next. The author’s writing is quite engaging. However, I was disappointed to see it end as it did. Thankfully, there are three more stories in the series so hopefully we’ll find out just what happened to Jed and what dangers he brings to Cassie’s life.
I received a copy of this book for an honest review.

05 JanReview: Silent Threat by Dana Marton
Excerpts“Oh God. The Murray curse strikes again.” She said the bitter words. “I’m just too stupid to learn.” Her lips wobbled. “Please leave.” Her eyes glinted with tears, devastation in her expression, in the way she held herself, as if on the verge of collapsing. Jesus. He’d made her cry. Cole’s gut twisted. “Annie, please.” He came to his knees, then to his feet. He couldn’t lose her.
