Danger in the Rockies (Colorado K-9 Unit, 3) by Terri Reed

Danger in the Rockies (Colorado K-9 Unit, 3)
ABOUT THE BOOK

A K-9 team’s investigation

leads to a deadly case of mistaken identity.

K-9 officer Maren Anderson is shocked when she catches a glimpse of her presumed-dead twin sister—moments before a shooter opens fire. DEA agent Colt Dawson rescues her and helps secure the crime scene, but before Maren can find her sister, Opal vanishes again. Maren has questions and so does Colt—especially since Opal may be the key to exposing a drug kingpin’s identity. But now the cartel leader’s henchmen think Maren is her sister and she has a target on her back. Forced to work together to unravel the deadly mystery, Maren and Colt must track down her twin before the criminals closing in claim their lives…






MY THOUGHTS.....

Grab this book if you're a fan of danger and adventure, because the non-stop action begins in the opening pages! An investigation of an illegal adoption ring sends K9 officer Maren Anderson to a suspected OB/GYN clinic. What she doesn't expect in this visit is a frantic attempt to dodge bullets and a shocking view of her "presumed dead twin sister" fleeing the crime scene. Her rescue by DEA Agent Colt Dawson introduces her to even more danger! He is trying to capture the leader of a drug ring, and multiple clues point to Maren's sister, Opal. Is it possible that the missing key to Colt's investigation may be held by someone who looks just like Maren?

The intriguing characters and thrilling plot kept me turning the pages, but best-selling author Terri Reed didn't stop there. A glimpse of Maren and Colt's past experiences offered depth to the story, and their realistic emotions created the perfect conflict. Could they overcome their doubts and trust their hearts? I loved the romantic tension and the faith that's woven into their story. Inspiring faith, but never preachy...one of Reed's trademarks! And I can't forget two loyal canine protectors, Haven and Rusk!

I recommend Danger in the Rockies for fans of heartwarming but thrilling romantic Christian suspense.

I received a complimentary ARC from the author. There was no obligation for a positive review. These are my opinions alone.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Find Me at the Table (Jonathon Island / Season 2, #3) by Andrea Christenson

Find Me at the Table: Enemies to more, a cooking competition, and the man whose career she accidentally destroyed. (Jonathon Island | Season 2 Book 3)
ABOUT THE BOOK

She ruined his career with one review. Now they have to cook together.

A food critic who can't cook. A chef who can't let go. One cooking competition that changes everything.

Ava Harper writes restaurant reviews that can make or break careers—but she's hiding a secret that would destroy her own. The daughter of celebrity chefs never learned to cook. When her editor forces her to compete in Jonathon Island's Flavor Fest, she's not just out of her depth—she's partnered with Zach Sullivan, the chef whose restaurant her review accidentally ruined.

This should be a disaster.

Zach has nursed his grudge for years. He's blamed Ava for every setback, every failure, every sleepless night. Now he's stuck in a dead-end job under a tyrannical chef, and his only shot at redemption means working alongside the woman he's spent years resenting.

The problem? She's nothing like he expected.

Between burnt garlic bread, sabotaged flour, and the watchful eyes of celebrity judges, Zach and Ava discover that the truth behind that fateful review isn't what either of them believed. As old wounds finally come to light, they'll have to decide: Is forgiveness worth the risk? And is love the recipe they've both been missing?








MY THOUGHTS.....

Find Me at the Table is another delightful book set on Jonathon Island, and I'm once again reminded just how special this place is! Jonathon Island, Michigan, with its charming landmarks, wonderful people, and the ever-present opportunity for friendship and forgiveness. Exactly what chef Zach Sullivan and food critic Ava Harper both need, but can they find it with each other?

Author Andrea Christenson offers a realistic portrayal of two people challenged to forgive past hurts. Zach's career as a chef was damaged by a review that Ava submitted in error, and Ava has a secret that could derail her credibility as a food critic. Forgiveness doesn't happen immediately, and trust isn't easy to find. Will their time on Jonathon Island give both of them a second chance?

Find Me at the Table is a wonderful addition to the Jonathon Island, Second Season series. I love the sweet chemistry, the enemies-to-lovers trope, and the inspiring nuggets of faith that Christenson plants throughout her story. There's also a chance to reunite with the amazing Sullivan family! Wonder what comes next in this outstanding series from Sunrise Publishing?
