Book Tour: Deadly Proof


    Book info.        

About the book:


Riveting new series offers legal suspense with a romantic twist
In the biggest case of her career, attorney Kate Sullivan is tapped as lead counsel to take on Mason Pharmaceutical because of a corporate cover-up related to its newest drug. After a whistleblower dies, Kate knows the stakes are much higher than her other lawsuits.
Former Army Ranger turned private investigator Landon James is still haunted by mistakes made while serving overseas. Trying to forget the past, he is hired by Kate to look into the whistleblower's allegation and soon suspects that the company may be engaging in a dangerous game for profit. He also soon finds himself falling for this passionate and earnest young lawyer.
Determined not to make the same mistakes, he's intent on keeping Kate safe, but as the case deepens, it appears someone is willing to risk everything-even murder-to keep the case from going to trial.

My Thoughts On the Book: 



This is the first book in the brand new series Atlanta Justice by Rachel Dylan. This is the first book in the genre of Legal Fiction that I have ever read. It was rather interesting. The fact this is a Christian book made it more interesting. 

Since I mentioned that Deadly Proof is a piece of legal fiction, I should mention that there was a lot of legal terms and details. Never fear though the characters explain these details. Which made the job seem much more realistic. 

I liked that the book had a female lead. Also that she was a lawyer, it is so sweet to have a strong female lead. It was a good break from the typical supporting characters we usually see in books. 

The main character is a strong and independent woman named Kate. She is a workaholic, and surprisingly she has a small personal life. She has a small group of friends. Two of whom try and remind her to take a break now and then. I enjoyed that while Kate had a very excellent work ethic but didn't work for the money. I liked that the book shined a light on lawyers that actually care about their clients. 

While I enjoyed the characters, they both had their fair share of faults. I felt like they had hardships that were relatable. Their struggles were real life and not overly dramatized or unrealistic. 

The sense of faith is what I loved most about this book. Kate was constantly praying, which is something that even in many Christian fiction novels can be lacking. I loved how she showed her faith in God with every chapter. I also liked that she wasn't shy about her faith. She shared her beliefs with people, in a way that wasn't overly preachy.
