Very religious

It was a good book, but definitely very religious. Felt like that should’ve been stated in the description. I am not against Christian in the slightest, but every several sentences something about the Lord was mentioned.

Another intriguing book by Terri Reed

I couldn't stop the audio. I loved the family unity, love story and the convictions of the dogs and their handlers.

Sweet romance with fast paced action

Nothing I like better than a book that focuses on crack FBI K-9 team. In Guardian Terri Reed introduces us to such a team. I'm not sure who I liked better the human characters or the dogs! What a team! The action in this story was also top notch; capturing my attention from the first line to the last.
The romance was sweet though I prefer my romance with a little more spice! This romance reminded me of those old movies that faded to a breeze gently blowing through an open window just when it got good! However , Terri Reed writes with a definite Christian, abstinence before marriage bent so the sweet,chaste affection is understandable. The Christian undertones are just that - light undertones. Prayers for safety and protection that fit with the suspense of the story. Very relatable!
I did tire of the main character Leo's constant protestations that he was not worthy of Alisha, especially since everything about him screamed he had faith in God's leadership in his life. So why was it so hard to accept that God had led him to his soul-mate?
The voice performance was just perfect for this selection. Callie's voice changes allowed enough distinction between characters, you could easily tell which person was speaking . The pace and tone of her reading clearly added to the suspense and tension in the action scenes. Very well done! It was like sitting in a performance of a live readers theater!
Overall it was a very good audio book selection. I am looking forward to more from this series!

suspenseful but continues

I liked the story but was a bit disappointed in the ending. I was hoping for more. I will probably buy one more in this series to see how it all ends.

Intense Story

What a wonderful love at first sight plus service dogs love story. Beautifully written and hear warming story line in a short story.

Great, clean book

This book was great. It's a slow burn, faith based story about a woman who's in the wrong place at the right time. Now she has to stay alive long enough to keep her son and father safe. It's a great listen with God, easy to like characters (except the bad guy) and precious working dogs.

Captivating

Kept me wanting to come back and listen to what happens next. The reader was excellent.

This was a very “nice” story. It was a mystery of sorts.

Though it wasn’t a who fone it it was a where is he? The chemistry between the main characters and for once the heroine does not do what she has been told not to do which puts her in danger. No unnecessary sexual content. Just a good suspense drama.

exciting!!!!

none stop action and very realistically written !! this book kept my attention clear to the ending

I LOVED this audiobook.

Exciting from the first paragraph. Interest and story never lagged. The writer writes in word pictures. Ofcourse the dog is wonderful and adds another element of interest.
I learned a lot from this book.
