Black Diamond by Susannah Sandlin
5.0
There are just some books that are so good, where you get so involved with the characters, that you just are unable to set them aside. BLACK DIAMOND was one of those books. My plan was to read a little over breakfast and then go get the rest of my errands done for the day. Well let's just say that my errands did get done but a few hours late.
While I did enjoy and appreciate the beauty of the bayou, what really grabbed and held me were the characters. Jenna is such a flawed individual who is unsure of herself but determined to regain the ground she had lost after the shooting. Cole's answer to the darkness of our society was to retreat completely but meeting Jena is causing him to rethink that decision. I also really liked Mac, who was Jena's partner and a secondary character, he tends to be a chatterbox and a flirt so people tend to underestimate him.
The pacing on this book was perfect with a lot of tension that builds towards a satisfying conclusion. I really appreciated the bits of humor that gives the reader a chance to catch their breath.
I do recommend BLACK DIAMOND to any of my readers who enjoy a well written romantic suspense. This series is on now on my radar and I can't wait for the next book to come out.
