Synopsis:

Caroline Bragg’s life has never been better. She and Brandon Lancaster are taking their relationship to the next level, and she has a new dream job as legal counsel for Praecursoria—a research lab that is making waves with its cutting-edge genetic therapies. The company’s leukemia treatments even promise to save desperately sick kids—kids like eleven-year-old Bethany, a critically ill foster child at Brandon’s foster home.

When Caroline’s enthusiastic boss wants to enroll Bethany in experimental trials prematurely, Caroline objects, putting her at odds with her colleagues. They claim the only goal at Praecursoria is to save lives. But does someone have another agenda?

Brandon faces his own crisis. As laws governing foster homes shift, he’s on the brink of losing the group home he’s worked so hard to build. When Caroline learns he’s a Praecursoria investor, it becomes legally impossible to confide in him. Will the secrets she keeps become a wedge that separates them forever? And can she save Bethany from the very treatments designed to heal her?

This latest romantic legal thriller by bestseller Cara Putman shines a light on the shadowy world of scientific secrets and corporate vendettas—and the ethical dilemmas that plague the place where science and commerce meet.

It didn't take long for me to be pulled into this novel! I immediately felt a connection to the leads because of their dedication to their work and to others. With everything that is going on in our world with Covid, this was a timely, relatable read that left my skin tingling and hair standing on end from start to finish.

I loved the building of Brandon and Caroline's relationship, as well as their Christian values that were displayed through their actions/choices. Understandably, they both have their fears and reasons for holding back in giving their full hearts to one another. The relationship felt real and I had all the feels with both of them!

As I progressed through the book, I stopped taking breaks to read and found myself anxiously awaiting the next page turn. I couldn't read fast enough! The research is thorough and explained in such a way that I didn't feel completely lost. Fantastic read!
