Good story, quick read. Deadly Fall is part of the Devil’s Shroud series but you don’t need to have read it to enjoy this one. While Harlequin series books are no longer at the top of my TBR (to be read) list, I am a huge fan of books by Elle James and will read anything she writes. This was a very quick read for me and I enjoyed it. The attraction between Dixie and Andrew could be felt in the writing and I loved how Andrew was willing to risk his life for a daughter he didn’t even know existed; his devotion to Leigha was wonderful. I loved the mystery and suspense in this story. I just wish that there had been an epilogue (I’m a sucker for epilogues). After the mystery was solved I wanted to know a little bit more about how things really wrapped up. Considering that this was the last book in the series I think an epilogue would have been a perfect touch. If you’ve enjoyed the other books in this series I’m sure you won’t want to miss this one as characters from previous books make an appearance. Even if you haven’t read any others this would still be a great read for anyone who enjoys romantic suspense stories from Harlequin. An advanced copy of this book was provided to me but my review was voluntary and not influenced by the author.
