“Target Acquired” by Lynette Eason

WOW this story was intense! I loved getting to know SWAT members Kenzie, Cole and the other team members in this Lake City Heroes book.

Kenzie is a strong, fierce woman who felt like she had to constantly prove her worth on the almost all male SWAT team. Kenzie, Cole and the team fight to work together to keep themselves alive as time and time again they come face to face with danger and almost death. It was really interesting to read about Cole’s grandmother Eliza and her experiences in the mental state hospital in the mid 1940s; and how it tied back into present day.

Lots of twists, danger, heartache and revenge. I absolutely loved this clean, Christian fiction book.

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions and views expressed are my own.

About the Book:
Tough-as-nails Kenzie King has finally earned her place as a tactical medic on a SWAT team. But not everyone on the all-male team accepts her. Rumor is, she didn’t get the position because of what she could do but because of who she knew. Which means she has to work harder and longer than anyone else to prove herself.

Cole Garrison is a man with deep faith who is finally ready to settle down and build a family of his own–if he can find the right person, that is. Kenzie sure has set off his interest meter, but trouble seems to follow in her wake. Since she joined the team, someone has begun to ambush and pick off team members, one by one.

It’s all hands on deck to discover the culprit and end the killing. Can Kenzie and Cole put aside their differences and work together as a team? Or will their budding attraction be snuffed out by a sniper’s bullet?

As you’ve come to expect from bestselling author Lynette Eason’s stories, this tightly wound plot unfurls at breakneck speed and will leave you breathless.

MY REVIEW

I love reading Three Springs Texas books by this author! I especially have enjoyed getting to know the Sloan family. Each book can be read as a stand alone story.

Lacey is returning home to her small town in order to reconnect with her daughter after leaving the military. She hasn’t had alot of experience being a mom and struggles to connect and parent her daughter. I love reading how animals can help people heal and grow relationships-in this case horses!

Lacey has known Caleb most of her life but reconnecting with him was not something she had in mind. But when he offers to help her daughter get ready for the local rodeo in exchange for a date, she finds herself agreeing.

This was a sweet clean romance about second chances, love and family! Highly recommend this story or any story from Three Springs Texas!
