I don't usually read contemporary romantic suspense, but I decided to give Submerged a try, and boy am I glad I did. From the very beginning the setting breathed life, and I could have sworn the author herself was an experienced rescue diver because the dive scenes were so authentic. Dani Pettry knows how to do her research and weave it seamlessly into her stories in order to create a fantastic experience for the reader.

Cole McKenna is a top-notch, sigh-worthy hero. A man dedicated to family, to ...more

Whoa! What an adventure! I had a feeling that Dani Pettrey would write a romantic suspense that sucked me in from page one and wouldn’t let me go till the very end. And that's exactly what happened!

Whoa! What an adventure! I had a feeling that Dani Pettrey would write a romantic suspense that sucked me in from page one and wouldn’t let me go till the very end. And that's exactly what happened! While the suspense and tension wasn't very high in the first half of the book, things DO happen that keeps the reader going…and then I hit that halfway mark and it just took off!

There is quiet a large cast of characters in Submerged. Not only does the reader really get to know Bailey and Cole, but also his other siblings and best friend, Landon. And not just briefly, either—by the end of the novel I had come to care for Piper, Kayden, Gage, and Landon just as much as I did Bailey and Cole. Pettrey did an amazing job weaving so many characters into the plot and still making each person and their struggles unique and memorable. Makes me look forward to the next book even more!

And the writing! Wow, was I impressed. So vivid, sharp, and clean. Takes the reader right into the moment, making the characters come alive. And the way she described Yancey, Alaska and all its charm makes me want to go visit this little town. Very well done!

I would recommend this book more for older teens, since there are a few mature situations this book deals with. One character was known to sleep around in her younger days, and while nothing is described, one character remembers having to listen to the teen boys lewd conversations about their times with her. As I said, nothing too descriptive, but this sordid past plays a big part throughout Submerged.

But, really, Pettrey handled this situation so well and carefully, I was impressed by how clean she kept the book, considering the situation her characters find themselves in. All around, I found Submerged to be a wonderful, awesome read that I know I will pick up again. The characters will remain vividly in my thoughts for a long time to come! Here's a high-five from me, Dani, on writing an awesome romantic suspense!! Loved it!! ...more

A good start to a family orientated Christian Suspense that plunges you into the world of Yancy set Alaska.

The family dynamics was definitely my favourite aspect which is great as there are a few more books to this series :).

I love the way Biblical scripture and prayer was included through out the story.

The suspense element was ok.

I give Christina Moore 4 stars for her entertaining audio performance.

Piper was my favourite so I can not wait to read book two.

Well I discovered I love Dani Pettrey. I read this book in 1 day and it was so worth it. I love the female lead and her struggle to forgive herself of her past sin and to believe God has forgiven her as well. Love the male lead who forgiven her as Christ forgave. One of the things I liked about this book is Christ isn't merely mention, but it is the theme of the novel. I can't wait to read this series and know more about this family. I highly recommend this book and I am sure the series!! ...more

This is a challenging review for me to write. I wanted to give this book more than three stars, and I debated going up to four throughout the book. However, the continuous lewd mentions to Bailey's past just tipped things too far south for me.

Don't get me wrong: We all have sins in our past that stick in our minds long beyond receiving forgiveness from Jesus Christ. And yes, these things color our perceptions sometimes, as well as the perceptions of others. I think Ms. Pettrey by Andrea Renee Cox

This is a challenging review for me to write. I wanted to give this book more than three stars, and I debated going up to four throughout the book. However, the continuous lewd mentions to Bailey's past just tipped things too far south for me.

Don't get me wrong: We all have sins in our past that stick in our minds long beyond receiving forgiveness from Jesus Christ. And yes, these things color our perceptions sometimes, as well as the perceptions of others. I think Ms. Pettrey portrayed this pretty well, but I don't think the lewd comments and innuendo were appropriate. Writing about a theme such as promiscuity is really tough, and while Ms. Pettrey refrained from going behind those bedroom doors, there were moments when things were a bit too descriptive or lead the mind to figure out details I'd rather not have in my head.

Something that drove me nuts, probably because it's something I would flag as a copyeditor, was the over-usage of phrases such as "turned heel" that were fairly unique and stood out in my mind as I was reading. They are cool once or twice throughout an entire book, but used more than that and they become a distraction to me.

Another minor note (this particular thing did not weigh into my rating): In the Kindle edition, the POV switches were not noted very clearly, leading to some confusion and head hopping. I noticed in my paperback copy that these POV switches were established with a single blank line. I hope the publisher will make sure these things are made clearer in future Kindle editions they produce.

However, I really enjoyed getting to know the McKennas. I loved how the two leads were thrust together over a tiny piece of evidence in the crime. That was an amazing thing that I've not seen done very often. The crime aspect of this story was quite intriguing, and I wish I could tell you more about it, but I don't want to spoil anything in the discovery for other readers. What I adored possibly more than anything else about this story, though, was the "Nancy Drew" thread. Now that was such fun! It kind of came out of nowhere, but I liked it from the first moment it showed up and every minute afterward.

I am looking forward to trying the next book in the Alaskan Courage series.

I was not compensated for this review. ...more

The story is supposed to take place in a fictional town on the peninsula just south of Kodiak. Um, I lived on Kodiak. Her descriptions do not in any way match what I remember. She talks of Piper and Landon trekking through salt marshes ("the glades") but never mentions mosquitoes. If Landon is complaining of trekking through mud, he would definitely be complaining of the mosquitos!! They're Alaska's unofficial state bird, for crying out loud! lol They would be being eaten alive during the summer! The worst thing is all the diving. At one point they talk of staying in the water for around an hour. Not in Alaska!! My sister's brother-in-law fell in the water in Kodiak and nearly died of hypothermia in 4 minutes!! Nothing was mentioned of special dive gear for the cold water, and even with special gear they would have been seriously limited on how much time they could stay in. For Cole to show up with a dive mask and tell Bailey she only needed a swimsuit shows how badly this book was researched. I wish she had done a lot more research of what the area is really like.

Some of the story line I thoroughly enjoyed. Dani dealt with Bailey's rough past very well. She didn't fall into the trap of being too descriptive, but she didn't gloss over it, either. Cole is almost too good to be true. He is all care and concern for Bailey, seeming to have no trust issues or doubts about her despite what she did to him years ago, but has issues trusting a young man he's been working with that's in a bad situation. The guy has been doing great for months, but he's very quick to suspect him when something goes missing. A little bit of a double standard to me.

The last think is a personal preference. I don't like it when books rewrite history. "Well, everyone THINKS that such and such happened, but what REALLY happened was....."

I struggled with how many stars to rate this. I ended up going with three vs. two for the sensitive way she dealt with Bailey and her story. ...more

Bailey Craig vowed never to set foot in Yancey again. She has a past, and a reputation--and Yancey's a small town.

She's returned to bury a loved one killed in the plane crash and is determined not to stay even an hour more than necessary. But then dark evidence emerges and Bailey's own expertise becomes invaluable for the case.

Cole McKenna can handle the deep-sea dives and helping the police recover evidence. He can even handle the fact that a murderer has settled in his town and doesn't appear to be moving on. But dealing with the reality of Bailey's reappearance is a tougher challenge. She broke his heart, but she is not the same girl who left Yancey. He let her down, but he's not the same guy she left behind. Can they move beyond the hurts of their pasts and find a future together?

REVIEW: This debut book from new-to-me author Dani Pettrey is full of suspense, surprises, romance and faith. This book pulled me in from page one and kept me reading until after midnight to find out how it ended. Loved the vivid descriptions of the town of Yancey Alaska making the reader feel they were right there. There is a large cast of characters but you feel you get to know each one of the McKenna family and their relationships are so well depicted. Bailey grows and develops leaving her past behind and truly understanding second chances and God's forgiveness. Through it is an interesting Russian mystery, it was certainly a book that leaves you wanting more. I'm definitely hooked and can't wait to read the rest of the series.

FAVORITE QUOTES: "It's why I work with teens at Grace. There is so much in this world trying to pull them down. They desperately need Christ. We all do. And they need to know how much He loves them."

"I'm still such a mess. We all are. We don't instantly become like Jesus the moment we're saved. It's a journey."

"When people hurt they usually want to run away from God instead of to Him--even though He's what they need most." ...more

Cole McKenna isn’t like other search-and-rescue divers. He loves God, he loves living in the small town of Yancy (population 603) with his brother and sisters, and he loves adventure. Him and his family help with search-and-rescue missions, but they take it personally when rescued victims don’t survive. Cole’s best friend, Landon, works with the sheriff’s office and they work hard to keep the peace in their small Alaskan town. Cole and his family also own the local shop, Last Frontier Adventures, where they offer activities such as diving and white water rafting. When Cole and his sister, Kayden, are called to help recover the passengers of a crashed plane they soon learn of foul play involved pushing them to find answers.

When Bailey gets the call that her Aunt Agnes died in a plane crash and decides to travel back to her hometown in Yancy to attend the funeral, she’s more afraid of facing Cole and her past reputation than anything else. She’s no longer the town tramp, but she still cringes at how people will react to her appearance even 10 years later. Then she learns her aunt’s plane was sabotaged and is determined to bring about justice even though it requires a longer visit than she expected.

Despite the tension and mystery this story offered, I laughed throughout and deeply enjoyed every element Dani writes about. There’s family, faith, and forgiveness in a practical yet meaningful way both expressed and experienced in every chapter.
I love that the story is set in Alaska.
I love that the McKenna clan works and plays together.
I love that the search-and-rescue team take it personally when victims don’t survive.

Despite the emotions felt in the story, there’s a satisfaction in how each relationship is developed. The reader senses the deep loss felt by loved ones who die in the story, but there’s also healing and affection as well. Every time the McKenna family is together, there is unity and fun for the reader as well as the characters. It’s commented in the narration that the McKenna clan works independently yet in unison, they bring love and magic to the story which really amazed me!

There are also references to James Patterson and Nancy Drew in the story, which fit perfectly within the plot :)

There is violence in the story since a killer is discovered in this small town, but it creates just enough of an investigation without being gory.

Much of the story is about Bailey having the strength to realize she is a new creation in Christ, having the ability to overcome her past image and not fearing what others think of her. She carries a lot of guilt and sees herself as unworthy, I believe many readers will relate to her plight and will want to cheer her on as I did.

This story really does have everything; romance, action, a murder investigation, forgiveness, fun, underwater discoveries, small town characters, and an aunt who held many secrets but devoted her time to loving her niece even after she has passed on. It’s commented more than once that if you stay in Yancy long enough, you become part of the McKenna family. Well the same can be said about Submerged; read the first page and let the water pull you in.

I want to thank Bethany House Publishers for the review paperback copy they sent me. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
