Welcome to the Takeover + Review Blitz for Canyon of Deceit by DiAnn Mills hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!
Title: Canyon of Deceit
Author: DiAnn Mills
Publisher: Tyndale Fiction
Release Date: September 9, 2025
Genre: Romantic Mystery & Suspense
A rescue team searches for a missing young girl and suspects all is not as it seems in this high-stakes romantic suspense novel from the author of Lethal Standoff and Facing the Enemy.
When wilderness survival expert Therese Palmer receives a frantic phone call from former colleague Professor Rurik Ivanov, she is shocked by the news that his young daughter, Alina, is missing—and that Rurik wants Therese’s help finding her. She’s sure Rurik hasn’t given her the whole story . . . especially since he refuses to report the kidnapping to the police. Yet with a child’s life hanging in the balance, Therese can’t turn down this mission. She knows the clock is ticking and she can’t do this alone.
Therese reaches out to Texas Ranger Blane Gardner, whom she met seven months ago during one of her training courses in wilderness survival skills. Blane’s specialized training and background with the Crisis Negotiation Unit make him uniquely prepared for this search-and-rescue mission. He agrees to help Therese and to accept Rurik’s terms to keep Alina’s disappearance quiet, and as the two begin working together, Therese is determined the spark growing between them won’t distract from their mission to save Alina.
Traversing deep into the desert of Guadalupe Mountains National Park, Alina’s last known location, Therese and Blane struggle to separate truth from lies within the mix of intel they’re receiving. As they close in on answers that suggest the involvement of Russian organized crime and a high-profile international assassination attempt, they must fight to rescue Alina before she becomes an innocent casualty of a much bigger plot—no matter the risk to their own lives.
Christian Suspense with Romance books are a favorite genre of mine. Canyon of Deceit by DiAnn Mills is the latest in this genre that I have read.
WOW, the intrigue and mystery in this storyline starts immediately. The main characters in this book are Therese Palmer, a Wilderness Survivial Expert and Texas Ranger Blane Gardner. Professor Rurik Ivanov daughter is missing and he calls Therese frantically for her assistance in the case. Some Red Flags about this case are noticed right away by Therese, but a child is missing and possibly in danger, so she knows she has to act fast. She calls her friend, Blaine Gardner for his assistance and expertise. Therese and Blaine take the case on, and agree to not contact the police as the Professor has requested. They focus the search within Guadalupe Mountains National Park, where Alina is last know to be. The uneasy feeling about the facts that the Professor might be hiding come to light the more they search. I really admire their determination to find the missing girl, even as they realize they she might be in extreme danger, which puts them in danger. I also LOVE how they are noticing that even though they have only known each other for 7 months or so, they are attracted to one another. The story has so many twists and turns, mainly due to the fact that they have to unravel the mystery of the Missing Girl. The book is Action Packed Suspense and Romance. I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Christian Suspense and Romance. AMAZING BOOK!
