Book Review: Ambush by Colleen Coble (The Sanctuary #1)

Ambush by Colleen Coble
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Ambush by Colleen Coble starts with a strong premise, weaving mystery, danger, and romance against the vivid backdrop of a wildlife refuge. The atmosphere and character development are engaging, and I enjoyed watching the relationships unfold alongside the suspenseful plot.

I loved the originality of the sanctuary setting. The lurking danger of predators added real tension and fun to the story. The character development and mystery were engaging, and the atmosphere pulled me in right away. However, the constant repetition of facts and plotlines became frustrating. Instead of deepening the tension, the repeated reminders slowed the pace and made the story feel less polished.

I especially recommend the audiobook. The narrator did a fantastic job with the voices and conveyed the emotions beautifully which elevated the experience.

Thanks to Thomas Nelson Fiction, HarperCollins Christian Publishing, and NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.

3.5/5⭐️.
