DESCRIPTIONS

The fifth book of author Denise Ann Stock's Summer series involves a crime so heinous that a long-time friendship will not survive the aftermath. Christian Connor is the son of heart surgeon Ian Connor. When Christian is shot and left for dead on his front porch, he fights for his life as his family looks for answers. His sister Taylor deals with her own guilt of trying out for a professional surfing league while still being there for her brother. The Connors learn that a mafia family may be at the center of the crimes against them. Local law enforcement works to protect the family from the danger that stalks them, but the revelation of the shooter's identity is a shocker that rocks the family to its core. Denise Ann Stock grew up in Huntington Beach, California. "I got married and we moved to Florida. I went from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean. It was slower paced and a great place to raise our children. By day, I am an executive administrative assistant. My passion is storytelling. I like to write at night when all is quiet. Hobbies are tennis, and anything we do as a family at the beach or on the ocean."
