Thank you Thomas Nelson and Netgalley for this eARC, these opinions are my own. I really enjoyed Last Girl Breathing, lots of twists and turns! When Lucy was young her family, both blood and bonded, went camping. When the rain poured her and the other kids were cut off from their parents, they decide to go to higher ground and wait it out but then the dam breaks. Lucy survives but her little brother is lost and they never find his body. Years later her mom’s remarried and she has a wonderful step brother that she loves dearly. Only problem is Martin doesn’t believe the dam break was an accident and then tragedy strikes again and she loses two more of her family members to murder. The prime suspect, her ex-boyfriend Neil, another of her family. Neil says he’s innocent but can she believe him, especially when he’s hiding things? Lucy is determined to find out what happened but time isn’t on her side as a third family member is still missing. Will Lucy find them
alive? Did Neil do it? And what if what’s happening in the present is connected to what happened in the past? Court Stevens latest mystery spans years and will have you hooked unable to put it down! I was pretty positive I knew the whodunnit early on but the why kept changing as Lucy found out more and more about what happened to her family in both the present and the past. It was intriguing and tragic and you’ll feel how rough things are for Lucy and her family. What do you do when the people you trust might just be the ones to fear most? Can’t wait to read it again!
