MY REVIEW

City girl Kelsea goes to Colorado to visit rancher Will with a business proposal. Kelsea has a beautiful, bright personality with lots of skills and the ability to make people laugh and feel at ease. I also loved seeing the ranch in Kelsea’s eyes with her learning how to take care of animals and the day to day chores and living on a ranch for the first time.

I also liked seeing Will evolve during the story as he learns to stop and appreciate the beauty and comfort his ranch offers others.

They were both great main characters and easy to love. I can’t wait to read more in this series that hopefully will include the townspeople that were also introduced. I loved this easy to read, fun book!

I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.

About the Book

Title: Tactical Force

Series: Triumph Over Adversity #6

Author: Lynn Shannon

Publisher: Creative Thoughts, LLC

Release Date: February 28, 2023

Genre: Christian Romantic Suspense

Some wounds never heal.

As a former Navy SEAL, Walker Montgomery faces danger without flinching. But not even a combat zone halfway around the world was far enough to escape the trauma of his teen years. His younger sister was murdered and the killer never caught. Since returning home, he’s been quietly working the case, unable to move on with his life until justice is served.

She’s a survivor.

Hayley Barlow has her own tragic childhood. Abducted and held captive, she barely escaped the clutches of the same killer that murdered Walker’s sister. The invisible scars on her heart and the brand on her shoulder are souvenirs she can’t get rid of. When Hayley receives a taunting phone call from her attacker, she turns to Walker for help.

A race to stop a killer.

Walker is committed to safeguarding Hayley, but their closeness fractures the walls surrounding his heart. As the killer draws them into a deadly game of cat-and-mouse, nothing is as it seems. Walker is used to taking the fight to the enemy, but this time, with Hayley’s life on the line, it may cost him more than he’s willing to lose.

MY REVIEW

This is the first book that I have read from the Triumph Over Adversity series. This book can be read as a standalone book or as part of the series for better character development with repeating characters. I enjoyed getting to know Walker and his tactical team members including Jason, Kyle, Nathan, Logan.

Hayley returns to her childhood home after the death of her mother and runs into old friends and old memories. Walker and his team try to protect Hayley against the Casanova serial killer, who had attacked her 10 years prior and is now back for revenge.

This clean Christian fiction had lots of suspense and twists and turns. I really enjoyed the fast pace story line and characters. It was not graphic although the content is about a serial killer, kidnapping and murder.

I can’t wait to read more from this series!

ABOUT THE BOOK
A raging forest fire isn’t the only threat…

When an act of arson claims the life of a hiker, Yosemite Park Ranger Livy Chatham is the only witness—putting her right into the path of determined criminals. Only rock climber Hayden Bryant can protect her from the killers destroying all evidence of their crimes. But can Livy and Hayden outrun the danger that’s as hot on their heels as the fires blazing through Yosemite?

MY REVIEW

I really enjoyed this fast paced LIS National Park suspense. Livy and Hayden were both great, strong characters and I enjoyed reading about their traveling, ranger and climbing adventures.

It was interesting to learn about firestorms and how they control large forest fires. This clean suspense story had lots of action that kept me intrigued and wanting more. I read it from cover to cover in one day because the action and drama drew me in and I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next!

I noticed this story had alot more religious references about faith and God than most LIS books that I’ve read. I didn’t find anything wrong with it, but it may come across preachy if you aren’t use to it.

I would definitely read this book again and recommend it to others- I really enjoyed it! I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.
