Liam Peters falls in love and marries Rebecca Hancock after a whirlwind romance. Only a couple of months after their marriage, Rebecca is kidnapped from a shopping mall. Liam does everything in his power to find her, but the police are less than helpful.As Liam desperately searches for his wife, he discovers she might not be the innocent woman he thought. Perhaps there was a reason for their quick romance and marriage which had nothing to do with love. Liam doesn't want to believe it, but he quickly realizes he was played for a fool.As he does his own investigation, he discovers his wife was mixed up in quite a few illegal activies. His own life hangs in the balance as he comes up against the Russian mob, corrupt pharmaceutical people, and US Marshals. As Liam travels across the country to find his wife, readers will be on a rollercoaster themselves as they try to figure out the bad guys from the good guys.The premise of this story is captivating and it has the potential for a great storyline, but I felt as if I needed more. I wanted to know the characters better than I did. There were a few slow parts in the middle of the book, but I thought it got off to a great start and had a great end.I loved that the author kept giving us twists and turns to the point that the readers have no clue which characters to trust. We needed a score card to keep this straight, which I found fun. Missing Rebecca is a quick read and suspense lovers will enjoy this one.FTC Disclosure: The Partners in Crime Blog Tour provided me with a copy of this book to review.
