Searching for Hope

Redwood Coast Rescue, Book 6

De: Tonya Burrows

Narrado por: Stephen Borne

He'll risk everything for a second chance.

In the courtroom, defense attorney Callum Holden fights for justice, but when it comes to matters of the heart, he's about to face his toughest case. The brilliant and beautiful true crime researcher Ellie Summers, once the keeper of his heart, now barely acknowledges his existence. In a last-ditch effort to win her back, Cal vows to solve the one mystery that has haunted her for decades: the disappearance of her older sister, Hope. She’s not willing to compromise her principles… or her heart.

Ellie has a steadfast moral code and refuses to be swayed by a man who makes his living defending the worst of humanity. Between her podcast production company and training Puzzle, her search and rescue puppy, she tells herself she's too busy to miss the charming lawyer with the distractingly good looks. Yet, when Cal presents a photo of a teenage girl resembling her missing sister, she drops everything and joins forces with him to find the truth.

But everything is not what it seems…

Their mission: infiltrate the Hope's Embrace Commune during its annual couple's retreat. It’s idyllic at first, and the longer they stay, the hotter the spark between them blazes. But then the lies, manipulation, and mysterious disappearances begin to surface. Someone within the walls knows exactly what happened to Hope and is willing to kill to keep the commune’s secrets. And finding Hope might mean losing each other.

Searching for Hope contains a second-chance romance wrapped in a fake relationship and a hero with the same personality as the goofy K9 sidekick. This is the sixth book in the Redwood Coast Rescue romantic suspense series by Tonya Burrows, but can be enjoyed as a standalone.

Searching For Hope

Searching For Hope Book 6 of Redwood Coast Rescue by Tonya Burrows is a dynamic, twisted and a bit disturbing second chance romance that kept me on the edge of my seat!! I really enjoyed Callum tenacity and drive to help Ellie find her sister Hope and get her back. I really didn't like Ellie but I did like the romance between the characters Stephen Borne does a fantastic job narrating the characters and kept the suspense going for me. Highly recommend!

Searching for Hope is the sixth book in The Redwood Coast Rescue Series. This is a wonderful second chance romance between Ellie and Callum. Callum is determined to have Ellie back in his life permanently. He decides to investigate her sister Hope’s disappearance. The journey they embark on is filled with mystery, a very dangerous cult, murderers, a lot of tension with many twists and turns. There is a surprise visit from our friends from HORNET. Can Callum and Ellie make their relationship work? Listen and discover all the answers. As always, Stephen Borne was absolutely phenomenal in his narration. He portrayed all characters perfectly. I highly recommend listening.

A Disturbing Thrill Ride

I thought this book was as entertaining as the others in this series. I felt that this book was creepier than the others as part of it was set in a commune, and I found that setting more disturbing as there was something unsettling about being in a place with people that have been brainwashed and become zealots about their way of life. I liked Ellie and Cal and their second chances at romance story. There were several steamy scenes. I was entertained by Stephen Borne's narration as his performance was easy to follow, and his voice was pleasant. I was given a copy of the audiobook. I volunteered, without financial gain, to post this review which reflected my honest opinions regarding this audiobook.
