Title: The Hunted Heir
Author: Jayna Breigh
Publisher: Kregel Publications
Release Date: January 28, 2025
Genre: Romantic Legal Drama
After a tragic loss, private investigator Nona Taylor swore off romantic entanglements and distanced herself from the world. Once a year, on New Year's Eve, she attends church to beg God for forgiveness, haunted by the guilt of driving her twin sister to her death.
Attorney DeMarcus Johnson is determined to climb the ladder to partnership by winning high-profile cases at his Los Angeles law firm, harnessing his ADHD hyperfocus to excel. He's everything Nona knows to steer clear of--an overconfident ex-jock willing to do anything for success.
Their worlds collide when Nona's pastor receives a mysterious letter claiming he's the sole heir to a substantial estate. Desperate for answers, Nona infiltrates a lavish charity ball, only to be found out by a suspicious stranger--so she latches onto DeMarcus and concocts a fib about being his fiancée.
Now bound by a false engagement, the pair reluctantly join forces to discover the truth about the inheritance. But when an unseen enemy strikes, they realize the stakes are higher than they thought. Can Nona and DeMarcus overcome their differences to keep the pastor safe, secure DeMarcus's partnership, and preserve a future for themselves?
I really enjoy Christian Fiction. The Hunted Heir by Jayna Breigh is the latest book in this genre that I have read. The book is the debut novel for Jayna Breigh.
I will honestly say that I truly didn't think I would be captivated by the storyline so soon. The synopsis of the book was intriguing, although I felt a bit too much of legal words. I began reading this book and was immediately knew I wasn't putting it down anytime soon. The main characters in this book are Nona Taylor(a private investigator) and DeMarcus Johnson(an Attorney). Nona still has guilt in regards to her Twin Sister's death and tries to keep to herself. DeMarcus is doing everything he can to become a Successful Attorney in Los Angeles. The 2 meet at a Charity Ball and when she needs to hide her identity, she grabs DeMarcus and announces that he is her fiancé. The pair then decide to work together to solve the mysterious inheritance that DeMarcus recently found out that he is a beneficiary to. I really LOVE the "Fake Engagement" storyline. Nona initially wanted NOTHING to do with DeMarcus, but I really enjoyed how their relationship grew from FAKE to Real. The happenings that come about through their research to discover the Mystery person who gave DeMarcus an Inheritance was amazing! I really wasn't anticipating the Faith to be so prominent in the storyline. The book is one of Mystery, Faith, Romance and Family! I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Faith Based Romance books! FANTASTIC BOOK!

I, too, wondered if the legal aspects would drown me, but I can say they were very easy to follow and understand. Also love the can't stand to slow growing like you to romance stories because they remind me of hubby and I.
Hoping we don't have to wait too long for the next amazing book by this author.
