“Seconds to Live” (Homeland Heroes Book #1) by Susan Sleeman
I have read lots of books by this author and I love her writing and clean suspense stories! I was thrilled to start reading the first book in this new series!
For whatever reason, I had a hard time connecting with the two main characters, Taylor and Sean. I guess I found them both kind of bossy, rude and not very likeable. I did keep reading the story and by the end I did like them both more. I’m looking forward to getting to know other characters and seeing where this series goes.
There were alot of tense scenes, lots of action, twists, and clean romance… I really enjoyed it! Not one of my favorites, but definitely worth recommending and reading! I liked the story line and learning more about witness protection and marshals.
I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.
