My Thoughts

Cold Case Target is book two in the Texas Crime Scene Cleaners series that is written by Jessica R. Patch. They can be read as stand alone stories. Sissy Spencer is the ‘grief counseling’ portion of Spencer Aftermath Recovery. A business that she runs with her very over protective brothers. She is a widow and tries to use her experiences to empathize with her clients. Beau Brighton comes from fortune. He was introduced in a previous story, Crime Scene Conspiracy. It was good to get his story. He may come from money, but one of the things he has never gotten was the approval of his father. 

He does not want to go into the family business, and he is grateful for a second chance with his friend's Private Investigator Business, Second Chances. He returns back to his home to find his sister, Coco attacked and on the brink of death. Coco has gone through a lot, her fiancé drowned and she was just starting to heal. Beau is beside himself trying to figure out who would hurt her. Sissy is one of Coco's friends, and goes to her home to clean the mess up when she is suddenly attacked. Thankfully Beau comes in time. 

Sissy and Beau have a history. Beau broke her heart many years ago - so when he is attached to her side 24/7, he is the last person she would like to have around. They suddenly need to come to terms with their past and move forward and try and figure out who is trying to kill Sissy. What they don't count on is being met with danger at every turn, and getting caught up in cold cases. 

This author is the master of suspense. Just when you think you have it figured out, boom, another avenue presents itself. I love the Spencer family and really enjoyed this book.
