Book Description, Modified from Goodreads:
A dangerous organization is kidnapping and trafficking newborns—and Officer Justin Leacock’s nephew is their latest victim. To save the stolen baby, Justin will have to go undercover as a married couple with his former fiancée, Detective Violet Jones. Except finding the boy isn’t enough; they have to prove he's the kidnapped child. Now they must outwit the kidnappers on their tail and survive the icy wilderness, too.


My Review:
Undercover Baby Rescue is a Christian romantic suspense novel. Justin feels like he needs to fix everything, so he's always involved with his family's messes. He didn't want to drag his wonderful fiancée, Violet, into his chaotic life, so he called things off. While Violet liked Justin, she wished he'd actually open up about what was worrying him. Since he'd never asked for help before, she agreed to go undercover with him to try to save his nephew. As they worked together, they also worked through the issues that broke their relationship up and learned how to truly be a team.

The main characters were engaging and reacted realistically to events. The suspense came from the attacks by the bad guy and the danger created by the weather and terrain. Justin supported and admired Violet. He came to realize that he needed to ask others--and God--for help rather than just trying to fix things on his own. Both Justin and Violet grew as people through the events in the story. They prayed to God for help with the situation. There was no sex or bad language. Overall, I'd recommend this exciting novel.
