Innocent Target

Redemption Harbor Series, Book 4

De: Katie Reus

Narrado por: Sophie Eastlake

From USA Today best-selling author Katie Reus comes the next story in the explosive Redemption Harbor series, where sparks fly and so do bullets....

He wasn't supposed to fall for her....

She was a target; a contract that came across his desk by mistake. Axel was simply going to warn her that she was in danger and get out. Then he got a taste of her and fell hard. But they're from two different worlds. Not only is she innocent, she's out of his league. He should keep his distance, but he can't. Not when someone wants her dead. Now he's driven to protect her, to keep her safe.

What happens when she discovers who he really is?

Hadley moved to Redemption Harbor for vet school and to be closer to her new family. Now that her billionaire father knows about her existence, her life has changed drastically. She just never imagined she might be targeted because of her family. And she definitely never imagined she would fall for the one man she should never want; a man who kills for a living; a man who's obsessed with her; a man who will do anything to protect her from the danger lurking in the shadows.

Good job

This is the story of brooks half sister and new guy Axel. This was sweet and short but a full story. Narration was great as Sophie Eastlake always is. She does excellent male voices (very important in my humble opinion)

One of my favorites

Hadley is learning that with wealth complications can arise. A kidnapping hit is put out on Hadley and when she is attacked a stranger steps in and helps her. Is he really a stranger? Axel is hired hitman that learns Hadley has become a target. Axel falls in love with Hadley and decides to keep her safe not matter what. What happens when Hadley finds out what Axel does? Can these two find love despite the differences? An amazing book that I was excited to read. This story has everything you could want in a book, trust, friendship, loyalty, love, and suspense and action! A book for everyone.

Love it!

This series is wonderful and this fourth book is another great story in it. I can't wait for the next one.

I absolutely love Sophie Eastlake she is plain spoken and makes the story pop to life. Have you listened to any of Sofie Eastlake’s other performances before? How does this one compare? She is an excellent narrator Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? Yes I enjoyed it very much Any additional comments? Fantastic story and I can't wait to see who we get next.

Perfect narration, perfect story

Audio-book: Narrator – Sophie Eastlake
I really enjoyed this narration! The tone was great with perfect fluctuation. Both male and female voices were done very well and I never struggled to atune myself to this narrators voice or to decipher who was speaking. Listening to this audio-book was the perfect method for a re-read!


When someone is out to kidnap and torture Hadley, Axel immediately steps in. Just a look at her picture is enough to send his protective instincts into overdrive. Once he meets her face to face, he’s completely gone for the sweet innocent woman who is in a madman’s crosshairs.

Hadley had a rough upbringing and now that she’s met her brother and father she’s finding a contentment she never knew, even if they are a bit overprotective. When she spills coffee on a handsome stranger she immediately feels attraction to him, not knowing that he’s been monitoring her actions. As they become closer Hadley has stars in her eyes not realizing that Axel is keeping a deep dark secret from her. One that has the potential to rip her heart out.

I loved Axel so much! He was so totally in it with Hadley. Every step he took, every decision he made was to keep her as long as he could before the inevitable would happen. Once his secret was revealed there was no way she would want to be with him and my heart hurt at his assurance that all would be over when that day came. And that day must come soon, and he’s the one who must reveal all his secrets to her, quickly. That was just additional angst to an already fraught situation.

Hadley was so sweet. She deserved all the goodness life could offer and she has fought hard to become something more. When things take a drastic turn she never loses her control. She may not be able to physically take down a threat, but she keeps her emotions in check and handles each change in her perceptions with a strength that was compelling to read about. She was the perfect woman for Axel and together they were amazing.

Each book in this series has gotten better and Innocent Target is no exception. Definitely my favorite of the group at this point. Axel and Hadley both checked all my boxes for a great hero and heroine. This is a fast paced read with lots of action, well developed secondary characters that added to the plot rather than bog it down, so much steam you’re going to need a fan, and an ending that will leave you with a happy and contented sigh.

Part of a great series

I totally love this book. Axel was great addition to the series. the voice was easy to listen to and follow the different people.

Whew! Lots of action!

Quick, action packed story! Someone has a kidnapping contract out on Hadley. Professional hitman, Axel, is intrigued by the photo of the 22yo and, even though he never takes this kind of contract, he does so that he can protect her. Axel doesn’t count on falling for Hadley but he does and Hadley reciprocates those feelings. Can A el team up with her brother and his security team to thwart the other hitmen? Is there an HEA in store for Hadley and her hitman?

INNOCENT TARGET by Katie Reus

INNOCENT TARGET by Katie Reus
Innocent Target is the 4th installment in the Redemption Harbor series. I really enjoy series books, as we get to catch up with previous story characters in the new story. Katie has a such a way of telling a story to make you care about all of them. This is another great story. It has suspense, heat, well developed characters, and a plausible story.
This one brings us the story of Hadley and Axel. She is a college student that is going to be a veterinarian. She has newly discovered family in Brooks and Douglas Alexander, her brother and father. Axel is a former FBI agent that is now a hired gun. When he has a message come across his desk mistakenly that is a contract to kill Hadley he goes to warn her and ends up protecting her and falling for her. I do not like to give to much a way when I review books so that is all I will say. Sophie Eastlake once again does a fantastic job as narrator for Katie's work.

Loved It!

This is a great book; this is the fourth book in the Redemption Harbor series written by Katie Reus and narrated by Sophie Eastlake. She was a target; a contract that came across his desk by mistake.

And she definitely never imagined she would fall for the one man she should never want; a man who kills for a living; a man who's obsessed with her; a man who will do anything to protect her from the danger lurking in the shadows.The author and the narrator did a great job on this. I really enjoyed listening to it and I am looking forward to the next book in this great series.

Sweet story

This was a good story about a loyal, loving hero who fell hard. I was a little disappointed in the end.
Narrator did an awesome job.
I also couldn't relate to much to the heroine. She was 22, but I felt like she was 16.


Spoiler..
I found it hard for Axel to be caught off guard like that.
