"Conspiracy" is a Christian romantic suspense. This is the third book in a series and continues the story of the main characters in the previous books. Drew, Paradise, and Blake asked questions, found clues, and made connections regarding the deaths of Drew's and Paradise's parents. Two of the bad guys were pretty guessable as the clues built up, and they weren't a surprise to Paradise's group, either. While I didn't guess the main whodunit until the critical clue was uncovered, I did wonder at this person's behavior shortly before the reveal. This killer made a mild attempt to misdirect the investigation but did so by pointing them toward two major clues, one of which prompted Paradise to remember the truth. Basically, the killer needlessly exposed themselves, and I don't quite understand why (though the killer had plans to disappear, and I suppose killers aren't required to be logical).

The main characters were likable and reacted realistically to events. The suspense came from the danger from the attacks on Paradise. Blake and Paradise supported each other and worked well together. Paradise grew in her trust that God cared about her. There was no sex or bad language. Overall, I'd recommend this exciting novel.

I received an ebook review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley.

Riveting suspense as Paradise and brother Drew try to figure out the decades long mystery of who killed their parents. As the romance plays out for Blake and Paradise, they must hold onto their faith when trouble follows them and endangers the wildlife sanctuary yet again.

The wrap up to the series was exciting and full of surprises. I liked the interaction between Paradise and Blakes family. The memories keep unfolding for Paradise as she remembers what happened years ago. But if the principal players of that fateful night are gone, who is behind the attempts on her life! Who does not want the truth to come out! This bad guy was really hard to figure out.

Along with the mystery, there are interesting facts about the animals at the sanctuary. I liked that the main characters prayed about each obstacle that came across and chose to leave the outcome to God. Also, I appreciated the crossover characters in other series by this talented author.

Get ready for a thrilling finale to the Sanctuary series! Colleen Coble pulls out all the stops in this heart-pounding conclusion. Conspiracy kept me quickly turning the pages. Filled with twists & turns, edge of your seat suspense, sweet romance, & a touch of faith, this story definitely grabbed hold & didn*t let go.

Wildlife veterinarian Paradise Alden*s ready to let go of the past & look forward to a future with Blake & his family. As she continues the hunt for her parents* killer, she*s joined by her newly discovered law enforcement brother, Drew. But, unearthing deep family secrets & narrowing down suspects brings new threats, & Paradise is forced to face one of her worst fears, a leopard trained to stalk and kill.

Wow, this story was so intense! I loved seeing all the pieces of Paradise*s past finally come together in this stunning conclusion. I*ve enjoyed seeing her rekindle her love for Blake & was hoping they*d finally find their happily ever after. Their romance didn*t disappoint, though they*re faced with one frightening obstacle after another as someone*s determined to get Paradise out of the way.

I enjoyed watching Paradise & Drew become closer as siblings while they ferret out the clues to their pasts. It was fun getting to know Drew better & see him find a possible new love interest. With the discover of who Drew*s father was & more family secrets coming to light, the danger escalates with more murders, betrayals, & suspense, culminating in a pulse-pounding, shocking ending that had me on pins & needles.

I*ve thoroughly enjoyed this series & hope that this won*t be the last we see of Paradise, Blake, & Drew. Along the way, I*ve loved learning more about the sanctuary*s animals. Who knew a group of lemurs is called a *conspiracy?* And it was such a treat getting cameos of Hez & Savannah too.

Highly recommend to romantic suspense fans! To avoid spoilers, I definitely recommend reading the series in order. I received an advanced copy with no expectation of a positive review. All opinions are my own & voluntarily provided.

Conspiracy by Colleen Coble is the final installment in the Sanctuary series (yes, they need to be read in order). I LOVE the setting - my home state. So many places mentioned that I have visited which makes confirming the details easy. If you love a page-turning suspense this series is for you. Just as I 'thought' I knew how it would end, PLOT TWIST! Also, reading about the exotic animals at the sanctuary was very interesting. But I cannot ignore the romantic aspect. Romance, suspense, beautiful setting, conflict, healing from past scars. family. This series hit all the 'feels' for me.

Released July 7th. I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Such a great and surprising ending to the Sanctuary series. Colleen Coble outsid herself again with this series. We got our answers but not without a messy path to the ending.
