Life Flight by Lynette Eason ~ a Review

by Susan Roberts

If you want a real page-turner that will keep you up past bedtime...if you want a book that you can't put down once you're read the first chapter...if you want a book with an ending that will surprise you, pick up this book. This was my first book by this author but it definitely won't be my last.  The characters were well written and the plot kept me guessing until the end.

Penny is an EMS helicopter pilot.  She's brave and willing to take chances if it helps her patients.  When she runs into a storm, she has to land the helicopter at the top of a mountain.  Of course, there is no cell service so she hikes to the nearest house to call her location in.  Plus she finds out that there is a serial killer on the loose in the same area.  Both of these things going on at once, test her skills and her nerves to the limit.  She faces the serial killer and survives with the help of an FBI special agent.  When they find out that the person who was shot was not the serial killer that the FBI is looking for, Penny and Holt both become a target for the real killer.  On top of all the stress of the ongoing case, someone has let the media know about Penny's bravery and she is being harassed by the media.

As Penny and Holt try to stay one step ahead of the killer, he is watching them and making plans for them.  The killer is super creepy and devoid of feelings for anyone.  He causes situations that will get Penny out in the open so that he can fulfill his plans for her.  Penny is one smart woman and tries not to let her nerves affect her job but it's getting more and more difficult.  Can Penny and Holt find the killer before he finds them??

This book is a roller coaster ride with lots of twists and turns.  While all of this is going on, Penny and Holt begin to develop feelings for each other which makes them even more anxious to protect each other.  

Penny is a strong resilient woman who is both smart and able to fight for her life.  This is a book about new love, friendship, and family.  Parts of it are difficult to read but this is a clean story with no sex or profanity.

This book is listed as the first book of a new series and I can't wait to read the rest of the books in the series.
