Super amazing end to a super amazing series!

The Catch is packed with so much action, an incredible amount of twists and turns, and the most wonderful (if somewhat broken) characters you could ever wish to fall in love with!

Highly recommend to anyone who loves romantic suspense by Lynette Eason or Natalie Walters!

A huge thanks to the publisher! I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Admittedly the third book in the series, this was my first book by this author. That being said, I had no trouble following the storyline. Action packed, this clean thriller follows Madison as she deals with a flurry of cases. She's just received word that they may have finally apprehended her husband's killer, years after the fact. She is trying to process that when a trial goes bad and there is an attempted kidnapping of a judge. While protecting him they discover that his wife has been murdered and it might be by the judge's mistress. On top of that, the baby he and his mistress had together, is missing along with the babysitter - when will things end?! Fast paced, the plot sounds complicated, but quickly straightens itself out. Many characters prove redeemable, while others are bad through and through. The Catch is a clean, inspirational thriller about learning to trust others, but to most importantly place trust in God.

I love a good WITSEC plot! Harris is at it again with her fast paced action that will quickly get you tangled and wondering which way is up. Madison is still trying to find out who killed her husband and who shot her in her home. Jonas has feelings for her, but isn't sure she'll ever be able to move past the murder of her husband. I feel like more of the romance between Madison and Jonas is built in the other books, and this book is suspense and "wrap up" heavy. That's ok if you've read the entire series! It kept this book moving quickly, and I couldn't wait to see how all of the loose ends were tied up. I LOVED having a whole series dedicated to one couple/story line. I wish we saw more of that in Christian Fiction. Harris continues to produce captivating stories that are automatic "must reads" for me.

I received a copy of this book digitally via NetGalley as well as purchased it from Baker Books. I read and reviewed this book voluntarily, and all opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.

Much like the other books in this series, this moves at warp speed and it will keep you guessing until the end.

I really enjoyed seeing Madison's story continue with the search for her husband's killer and who shot her. She has amnesia about that night when she was shot but she will find out who and why in this book, but even then there are some twists that I didn't see coming. But at least she gets closure on this event and can move forward in her relationship with Jonas. I think this was holding her back from allowing the relationship to blossom.

The action/mystery/suspense aspect kept me guessing and wondering how each piece would unravel to reveal the truth. Not everyone is who you think they are and perhaps those you thought untrustworthy will give you a second chance.

I love the setting of this series. Seattle is a beautiful area and there is so much to do. It is a great spot for those that love the outdoors as we can see in a few scenes as they tromp through various wooded areas, trails, and parks.

This is the last book in this series featuring US Marshals. However, it gave me good insight into what they actually do compared to other government agencies. It is not a light job and there is just as much danger as any other entity.

This is a fantastic trilogy and well worth the read. We give it 5 paws up.

Couldn’t get into it. I read the other two at least a year ago and it’s just not the same when you don’t remember what’s happening in the series. I don’t feel like re reading the last book just to read this one. It ain’t worth it, and nothings rly suspenseful ab it. It’s just boring now.

The Catch is the third book in the US Marshals series. While you may be able to read this one okay as a standalone, you are definitely going to get the most out of the story by reading them in order. While the primary mystery in this book is new, there has been an ongoing mystery (that of the murder of Madison's husband) and a romance between her and Jonas that has been building throughout the course of the series. As such, while you may be able to get caught up enough to enjoy the book, you definitely will be missing a lot of what lead up to this point.

With a name like The Catch, one can assume that this would be full of action...and it absolutely was from start to finish. There was a lot going on in this story, and just when you think you might have it figured out or that things were drawing to a close, another surprise would be thrown in to keep us guessing. Lisa Harris has certainly mastered the art of creating a suspenseful read that will keep you on the edge of your seat and this was another great example of that. I thought it was a very good conclusion in the series, and one not to be missed by romantic suspense fans!

** I received a complimentary copy for consideration. All thoughts are my own.

A exciting and fantastic finale to the US Marshals series! Really liked the twists, turns and surprises in this novel. They definitely kept me guessing. This story has a lot of moving pieces and it was fun trying to put them together. The ending was super good and spot on for the series. Great read!
