Deadly Deceit by Natalie Walters

Independent and tenacious journalist Vivian DeMarco is back in Walton, Georgia, for one reason--to do her job and get out. When her boss suddenly dies under suspicious circumstances, Vivian's only hope for finding the truth--and the next big story--is small-town law enforcement's lanky poster boy, Deputy Ryan Frost. But the deeper they dig, the more twisted the truth becomes, and Vivian finds herself fighting for not only answers but also her life. False leads, incriminating emails, and someone called The Watcher force Vivian to confront the secret of her past and decide: How much is she willing to risk for the sake of a headline?

We are taken back to Walton, GA.  Vivian lost her job when she didn't reveal something personal about one of the subjects of her story.  All Vivian wants to do is do a good job in Walton so she can get back on a big city paper again.  Things don't always go as planned.  Ryan and Vivian had met previously in book one of the series.  He has since gone to Quantico FBI training and trying to decide what he is supposed to do with his life.  Stay in Walton, GA or accept the many job offers he has received.  As Vivian and Ryan try to catch The Watcher, their paths constantly intersect with each other.  

I thoroughly enjoyed this book.  Although this is book two in the series, it isn't necessary to read book one to understand this book.  Some of the same people are in both books and it fills in the gaps where needed.  

I was given this book by Revell Publishing via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.  I was not compensated in any way.
