Five years ago, Megan Hoffman was raped in her home, and her world fell apart. Though she's piecing her life back together, she never feels truly safe because her rapist has never been caught. Megan believes suppressing her tragic past is the only way to protect her privacy and her progress toward healing her soul, so she vigilantly guards the secret of her attack. When Megan meets Jack Calhoun, her sexy new neighbor and a single father, she fears her fragile life is about to shatter again. Jack is an investigative reporter, researching the town's string of unsolved rape cases. While Jack's investigation threatens to unearth Megan's secret, his charm and rugged appeal tempt Megan to leave her well-fortified comfort zone and take a chance on love. But new leads in the serial rapist investigation bring Megan's nightmare out of hiding and make Megan the target of a madman determined to silence her ... forever.

RRAH's THOUGHTS AND PONDERINGS:

DANGER AT HER DOOR is an outstanding contemporary romantic suspense from Beth Cornelison.

Megan Hoffman is a woman with a past who is tired of running. She has moved to a small town, changed jobs and changed her name. Megan hopes starting over will stop the danger from her past. She couldn't be more wrong. Danger is catching up with her, and this time it threatens to leave more than emotional scars.

Jack Calhoun is a crack shot reporter that has moved next door to Megan. Jack's instincts can spot a lie a mile away, and he senses that something is off with Megan. Megan does not know whether to trust Jack or not, because she would not just be trusting him with her past and secrets, but also with her very life.

DANGER AT HER DOOR is an excellent romantic suspense. The characters are fresh, vulnerable, and full of vitality. Cornelison is brilliant with her story weaving skills and leaves readers on the edge of their seats page after page. I would highly recommend this read to anyone who enjoys romantic suspense. You will NOT be disappointed.
