GRR Reviews Letting Go: A Contemporary Romantic Th by Anthony Awtrey

Letting Go is an interesting romantic suspense with good twists and turns and a nemesis that is evil, and his evil actually has a purpose rather than just being a sadist.

Alex Thompson is rich, but he had been living with the guilt that his wife had died at childbirth, giving birth to twins. A frivolous lawsuit, anonymous harassment calls and more kept him on the edge, even five years later. His latest move brought him and his family to yet another city, and encountered Molly McDill, a struggling single mom who lived next door. But Alex's nemesis has a timeline, and that involves getting rid of Alex... and Molly if she is in the way. Molly's ex-military ex-husband also reentered the picture, making things even more complicated. Who is after Alex, and why?

The nemesis is after something, and it involved Alex's kids, that's pretty obvious. But the twist that came later, was a bit of serendipity which I will not spoil, except to say, every character has a purpose. For once we have a MMC that's not much of a hero (heck, he hired a security firm) The ending was wrapped up nicely though, but as others pointed out, some details about guns are off (Glock pistols doesn't have a conventional safety), but that's a minor niggle.
