Run Rabbit Run by Kate Johnson
I first read Kate Johnson when I got lost in her novel The UnTied Kingdom, a unique novel with a blend of fantasy and chick lit. I was looking forward to another book from her, and that Run Rabbit Run was a mystery. I love a good mystery, and this one did not disappoint! This is actually a series following Sophie Green, but I didn’t have any issue catching right up with the characters. Sophie is an ex-spy, but she is forced back into that world when she is framed for murdering a M15 officer. Her gun with her fingerprints are found at the scene, but Sophie didn’t do it. Her only option? Run. Luke Sharpe is a M16 officer, or was until his girlfriend Sophie was accused of murder. Now he has to worry about her safety as she becomes a fugitive, try to find the real killer, and be able to hold on to his job. Will the power couple be able to clear Sophie’s name in time – and maintain their relationship?
This book was fast-paced and had me on my toes the whole time! The mystery is great, as is the relationship between Sophie and Luke. Luke is a former playboy, who is learning to love one lady and all that comes with being monogamous. It was great to also get the story from his POV. Sophie just gets in one jam after another, and while worrying for her life she also worries about her relationship. Add in a sexy partner-of-sorts in Jack, and Sophie has quite the full plate to worry about. I am definitely going to be checking out the previous books and would recommend the series!
