"--"Author Lorhainne Eckhart is adept at showing deeply felt emotions through actions, instead of just telling us. The insecurity, fear and paranoia practically emanated from Laura at the beginning of the story and watching her find her strength was truly an honor." Reviewed by Natasha Jackson, Readers Favorite --"A beautiful tale of emotional struggle and the battle to protect a family." J. Jackson --"I don't know how I missed this author as much as I read, but I am glad I stumbled upon her. This story in particular touched me because of Andy's love for Gabriel, and the lengths he went to protect his family." A. Mullins" In THE DEADLINE, Andy Friessen has packed up everything and moved his family two states away, to Montana, to protect his wife, Laura, his newborn babies, and his stepson, Gabriel, from the threats of his mother. What Andy doesn't know is that they'll soon face a new threat, one he never saw coming. Gabriel is sick, and a trip to the doctor confirms Laura and Andy's worst nightmare: Without a lifesaving transplant, their son won't survive. What Andy doesn't count on, as he tracks down the young man who fathered Gabriel, as well as Laura's estranged parents, is that a whole host of problems are about to be unleashed.
