Wrongly Accused (SWAT: Top Cops #1) by Laura Scott - Starting August 10, 2015

[Megan]

A DESPERATE FATHER

Only one thing matters to Caleb O'Malley: his daughter. Framed for his wife's murder, Caleb's only wish is to see his little girl. But Noelle Whitman, his daughter's foster mother, isn't buying his plea of innocence until bullets start flying and they're running for their lives. Staying one step ahead of the real killer proves nearly impossible, but former SWAT cop Caleb will risk everything to keep them safe. Because now there is nothing more important than Noelle and his daughter—not his freedom, not even his life.

SWAT: Top Cops—Love in the line of duty

50% done

(view spoiler)[any idea who the killer is?? I don't know why, but I'm not 100% trusting Declan, but I do hope he's not the killer. Other than him, I have zero ideas... (hide spoiler)]

[Melanie]

Oh, (view spoiler)[it was wonderful how Caleb let his daughter go swimming and because of that, they didn't leave on time and get in the car that was rigged to blow up. (hide spoiler)]

[Melanie]

Finished

(view spoiler)[I can't believe she isn't his biological daughter! Such a surprise, but I guess I should have, considering the affair. I loved how he didn't let it change his love or feelings for her -- she is still his daughter - even if not biologically.

I was surprised that Nicole got shot but I'm so glad she survived and healed quickly. (hide spoiler)]

Finished chapter four (27%) (view spoiler)[

I wonder who is trying to kill Caleb? His lawyer maybe, though what would be his motive?

I didn't really like how Noelle reacted to Caleb, yet understood it because of how she felt he was guilty. However, I love how much she cares for his daughter and treats her as her own. (hide spoiler)]

Finished chapter nine (56%) (view spoiler)[

It's weird how quickly Declan distrusted Caleb when he was accused of Heather's murder, someone who was the best man in his wedding and very good friends with him, but I'm glad that he finally seems to be trusting him and is helping them hide.

I wonder why Heather would of been involved in an escort service, when she was both married and had a successful modeling career. Unless she wasn't, and someone else is/was using her picture for their business and that's the reason she was killed. But if that's the reason, why still be trying to kill or frame Caleb? Maybe the two aren't connected and it's one of the people she had an affair with that killed her. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[It could be Brickner, but that almost seems too obvious since that the character Caleb is currently suspecting. I was definitely wrong about his lawyer being the suspect, since he's dead, but maybe the real culprit was using him somehow to get to Caleb...such as tapping his phone or interrogated him before he killed him?

(view spoiler)[ It was! I bet that made the person who rigged it mad, but I was so glad about it too! (hide spoiler)]

Finished chapter twelve (72%)

(view spoiler)[ That was very brave of Noelle to fight the man off like that, even though they were still caught. It probably bought them some time and made him forget to search them, which allowed her to text Caleb with directions. I'm very curious what's the reason for all this. I had a crazy thought that maybe Heather was a twin, and either she killed her twin or her twin killed her but why would either of them do that and why wouldn't Caleb know about her? So that's probably not a likely scenario. (hide spoiler)]

[Megan]

Finished

(view spoiler)[It was definitely a surprise that Kaitlin wasn't his biological daughter, though with how many affairs Heather must of had it shouldn't have been. I was really glad that he didn't let it change the way he treated her, and that he still thinks of her as his daughter.

I loved that the book ended with the wedding of Caleb and Noelle. I thought it was sweet how they kept Kaitlin standing up with them, instead of sitting after scattering the petals as many do with flower girls - it made for such a sweet visual of the three of them. (hide spoiler)]
