Unbreakable

I really adore Hunter's writing, especially how real her characters feel.

5 stars I was so pleased to learn that Cari Hunter is releasing a new book this year and it comes out on the day of my birthday no less! I couldn't wait to get my hands on it and I'm so grateful to Bold Stokes Books for the eARC! I started it as soon as I was approved for it on Netgalley, and even though I tried to make it last, I just couldn't stop reading. Hunter never disappoints. Her books have pretty much all been 5-star reads for me, and that includes Unbreakable.In Hunter's new romantic thriller, Elin's 4-year-old has been kidnapped and she's on the clock to gather and deliver the ransom money. When the drop-off goes to shit and she's injured, Elin sees no other option but to, in turn, kidnap Grace, a HEMS doctor, to keep her alive and to help her get her daughter back.In parallel to their story line, we follow the investigation lead by Detective Sergent Safia Faris. What appears like an easy murder case at first quickly spiral into a complicated chase. With her job on the line, Safia hopes she can find Elin and Grace before it's too late.Hunter writes amazing, strong female leads who are flawed and who show just the right amount of vulnerability. They all feel like real people I'd love to befriend and hang out with. Unbreakable is a real page-turner. The story is broken into perfect-length chapters that switch between 3 POVs and the pacing is just right. I read this books over the course of two nights and I found myself saying “Oh, just one more chapter” more than once
