Praise for the novels of Rachel Lee “A page-turner full of mystery and suspense, keeping the reader engaged every step of the way.” —Fresh Fiction “While the relationship-building excels, it is the heroine’s strength in the face of such personal adversities that is the real scene-stealer.” —RT Book Reviews “[Rachel Lee]’s deft use of dialogue to make her stories convincing works as well with conspiracy theories as with contemporary romances.” —Publishers Weekly
