Two Reasons to Run

The Pelican Harbor Series, Book 2

De: Colleen Coble

Narrado por: Devon O'day

The gripping second installment of the Pelican Harbor series from USA Today best-selling author Colleen Coble! Police Chief Jane Hardy has only just been reunited with her long-lost son when she learns of an impending terror attack that threatens everything she holds dear.

A lie changed her world. Police Chief Jane Hardy is still reeling from the scandal that rocked her small-town department just as she took over for her retired father - the man who wrecked her life with one little lie. Now she’s finally been reunited with her presumed-dead 15-year-old son, Will, and his father, documentarian Reid Dixon.

When a murder aboard the Gulf Coast oil platform Zeus exposes an environmental terrorist’s plot to flood Mobile Bay with crude oil, Jane and Reid must put their feelings for each other aside and work together to prevent the looming sabotage.

When the terrorist puts Will’s life on the line, protecting him could be the common ground Jane and Reid need...until ghosts from the past threaten to ruin their fragile relationship for good.

Jane has plenty of reasons to run. But what if she stays?

Pelican Harbor = Gulf Shores

Narrator's voice is pleasant but sometimes difficult to differentiate speakers.
#2 was less satisfying than #1 because the details of the attack are sketchy and some situations are simply unrealistic. Being able to leave a hospital without being asked to sign an AMA form? No way. Caught in a bear trap and not given crutches? Right. Still, no foul language. Characters believe in the existence of God but faith is not on prominent display.

Great story

Enjoyed the story, the characters and the narrator. Look forward to the last one in the series.

Nice three-part story

I enjoyed the plots that crossed crossed onto one. I remember the oil spill and it was nice to dedicate a book to the importance of ocean preservation.

I like the narrators voice, for the most part. Sometimes it would be helpful for her to take a breath between time frames so we know time has passed.

Some of the facts in this one were driving me crazy. Like the passcode to Charles’s fortress could have easily be changed when Elizabeth moved out. And the ease of an ER patient having free roaming access to an ICU patient, as well as coincidentally having the same physician. But I live in a bigger city so perhaps that works in small town hospitals.

Overall, I’m looking forward to book three in the series.

Being able to find God after leaving the horrors of a cult

I liked the twists in the story line. It’s the best of Colleen’s work to this point. I like the search of God in the characters lives. I didn’t like how Jane was so wishy washy. She forgave and then something would happen and she didn’t just take one step back but seemed to digress back to square one.

Another Great one

"two Reasons to Run" is another exciting thriller written by Colleen Coble and Narrated well by Devon O'Day. I've fallen in love with the characters of Pelican Bay and really enjoyed trying to figure out 'who dun it ' I look forward to listening to more stories in this series as well as others written by Colleen Coble.

Love it but…

I love the book but to be honest I’m just ready for it to be over. I’m gonna read the third book just because I don’t want to quit in the middle but really I feel like it’s drug on too long.

Must read...

Great follow up to book one and I can’t wait for the next book in the series.

Really keeps your interest

This is a very well written book. The pace is appropriate, the storyline very interesting and the outcome not obvious. Totally enjoyed the first one and now this one in the series.

Great character building

There wasn’t anything I didn’t like. It was well written, looking forward to the 3rd one.

So so

While I immensely enjoyed the first installment, this installment did nothing for me. There was no connection or aw-ha moment.
