Decoy Valentine is a story full of adventure, danger, and love. Kent does a great job of capturing a reader's attention with menacing threats and moments of peril, mingling with a tender romance.
Susanna is back in her small hometown of Sweetheart, ready to help withe the town's Valentine celebration. She's an overly nice and giving character, which leads to her being taken advantage of by some of these quirky residents. Her childhood best friend, Daniel, shows up again as well, which leads to a fake relationship, escalated threats, and a hint of romance. Daniel is a solid, likable character, with a sweet, protective streak.
I really enjoyed the way Kent kept me guessing. The mystery/suspense elements were well done and not very easy to untangle--just the way I like it. The pacing was perfect--not too overwhelming, but moved at a believable stride. I would have loved an epilogue to tie everything together, especially with the celebration, but it was still very entertaining.
Although I'm all about the love, this story was a great deviant from the typical Valentine's story and I loved the blend of a perilous romance.
