**ARC REVIEW**

Kidnapped for Ransom is my first read by Jacqueline Adam, and it definitely won’t be my last! This story hooked me from the very first page—the action starts immediately and never lets up. The pacing is tight, the suspense keeps building, and there were plenty of twists I didn’t see coming.

The balance between the romance and the danger was spot on. The second-chance romance between Chelsea and Matt felt natural and heartfelt, and I loved watching their connection grow as they fought to survive. The ending was satisfying and tied everything together perfectly.

I also appreciated the Christian elements woven seamlessly throughout the story — the themes of faith, prayer, and forgiveness felt genuine rather than preachy. Definitely a must-read!

Thank you to Jacqueline Adam and Hayling BookStorm for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.
