Blurb/Summary:
She's fighting to stay independent--he's determined to protect her no matter what...

Brooke Richards survived the earthquake that took her parents and most of her leg, but she needs time to regroup. A trip to Florida for a state-of-the-art prosthesis and to visit her best friend Linda seems ideal. But the trip turns traumatic when Brooke witnesses Linda's boat disintegrating in a fiery explosion.

Police Officer Garrett Ciavello believes the blast was intentionally set to hide something Linda found on a dive. When Brooke offers her expertise in underwater archeology, Garrett accepts her help with the investigation. But since his fiancée's death years ago, Garrett has become overprotective, and as they are drawn to each other, Garrett realizes he will risk anything to keep Brooke safe.

Brooke is fiercely independent. Garrett is fiercely protective. Will they heal each other's wounds and find a killer...before it's too late?




Review:
Need a suspenseful, action packed story filled with emotion?  Beneath the Surface offers that and so much more.  The characters, Brooke and Garrett, have seen a lot of loss and heartache in their life.  A cruel twist of fate brings them together, but there is so much they have to overcome to be together.  Their own fears, plus stay ahead of a killer. 

I love the way Brooke and Garrett are portrayed.  They are easy to relate to, which makes them real and likable.  The pacing is great, so many twists and turns in the plot and it kept me going.  The suspense is heart-stopping and overall this story is great!  Joya Fields weaves a tale of intrigue that romantic suspense readers can enjoy.  Add this one to your to be read pile today!
