Ибо так возлюбил Бог мир, что отдал Сына Своего Единородного, дабы всякий верующий в Него, не погиб, но имел хизнь вечную.

CelebrateLit Tour: The Crushing Depths by Dani Pettrey

They know the power and peril of the ocean.
But as they get closer to the deadly truth…
An even greater danger lurks just beneath the surface.

When an accident claims the life of an oil-rig worker on the first drilling platform off the North Carolina coast, Coast Guard investigators Rissi Dawson and Mason Rogers are sent to take the case. Tensions surrounding the oil rig are high and the death has everyone on edge. Environmental activists are threatening to do whatever it takes to stop the structure from being completed, while rumors are being whispered about ancient curses surrounding this part of the ocean. Mounting evidence shows the death may not have been an accident at all. Was he killed by one of the activists or, perhaps more frighteningly, a member of his own crew? Rissi and Mason have to sort through not only a plethora of suspects, but also their own past and attraction to each other. Just as the case seems like it’ll break open, worse news arrives. A tropical storm has turned their way and soon they’re cut off from any rescue–and right where the killer wants them. It’s a race to discover his identity before he eliminates the threat they pose. 

Dani Pettrey is one of my all-time favorite authors, and this new series is dreadfully wonderful! Ever since reading book one, I've been dying to know about Rissi, and it was so worth the wait! The book starts off with a bang (unintentional pun... I assure you) and it never slows down. It's fast-paced action keeps you going the entire time- It isn't one you can put down easily (if at all). The characters, like all of Pettrey's characters, make you want to know them better. And the plot kept even me guessing- and I can spot a bad guy the first time I see his name, usually. This one has it all- love triangles (aWkWaRd!) and suspense, compelling backstory and hope for the future, activists on both sides of the fence, and an inspiring, but not preachy, plot. I did find it a little annoying how much the characters couldn't get over how each other smelled- but my stepmother assures me that certain colognes do that to her and daddy too so I guess it gets a pass. But seriously, it was a lot. With a multi-layered plot, tons of action, sweet romance, and more, this book is a definite recommend!


I received this book as part of this blog tour, but once again, enthusiastic honesty. (really i couldn't make this up if i tried)
