Kate Maxwell is a private investigator who has loved Luke Gallagher for what seems like forever. And when he disappeared seven years ago, she has spent all her free time trying to find him. Now he's back and she finds that his leaving was a choice, which hurt. Luke Gallagher was recruited to be part of an elite team of operatives working to stop a terrorist who is planning a devastating attack on American soil. To do that he left everyone he loved behind, including Kate. Luke plans to take down the terrorist network with the help of his old friends but it won't be easy. And if he and Kate make it out alive, he plans to do whatever it takes to win her heart once again.
Wow, from beginning to end Dead Drift takes you on a wild ride you won't soon forget. This is the fourth book in the Chesapeake Valor series where you'll find a very exciting conclusion, but not until you have chewed off all your nails. The story (as well as the series) is very complex with lots of intertwining threads. It's also a series I would definitely read in order as there is a subplot that runs through all the books. This was the story I have been waiting for after learning about Luke through the other three stories. It mainly focuses on Luke and Kate but you see the other lead characters from the previous books as well, which I love. There were some parts that were difficult to read as you learn how truly evil the enemy really is. The chemistry, though, between Kate and Luke was great. You'll find yourself trying to solve the puzzle right along with them. Honestly, I hated to see this series end as I have grown fond of all the characters. Well done!

A few quotes I liked:
Kate, he feared, still struggled in that area - full dependence on God - just as she had in college. She loved her Savior - always had and, from what he'd observed, still did mightily - but loving and depending on were two vastly different things.
[Katie] She was a tender movement of a slow dance on the front porch to the soft melody of crickets. She was every sensation, every good moment, every emotion rolled into one.
Gentle has it's own strength but gentle, unfortunately, does not protect you from enemies.
