Also caught in the melee was corporate consultant Calder Hudson. Arrogant, self-centered, and high off his latest career win, he’s frustrated and confused when he wakes up in the hospital after undergoing emergency surgery on his arm. The doctor tells him that he was lucky—that as far as gunshot wounds go, he pulled through remarkably well. Others weren’t so lucky, which instills in Calder a furious determination to get justice . . . a goal shared by Elle.
Their chance encounter at the police station leads to a surprising and inexplicable gravitation to one another, but even as the attraction grows, Elle and Calder can’t help but wonder if the unimaginable tragedy that brought them together is too painful and too complicated to sustain—especially while the shooter remains at large.
My ReviewOut of Nowhere by Sandra Brown
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This story drew me in and was hard to put down. Of course, there is the mass shooting to deal with at the beginning, so if that triggers you, you might want to skip ahead. But there are other things to deal with loss, grief, and finding the person responsible for the shooting.
As Elle Portman and her two-year-old son make their way out of a Texas county fair, shots ring out and her world is turned upside down.
Calder Hudson, a corporate consultant is also caught in the melee. He wakes up in the hospital after undergoing emergency surgery. He's told he is lucky compared to others that weren't so lucky.
Calder and Elle meet for the first time at the police station and are drawn to one another. As their attraction grows, they wonder if their shared tragedy will make a relationship difficult to sustain. Especially with the shooter still out there.
Thanks so much to Hachette Audio for this ARC to review.
