BOOK REVIEW- Redwood (Linear Tactical #11) by Janie Crouch

   

Gavin Zimmerman. Military codename: REDWOOD. This former Special Forces soldier will protect Oak Creek from any threat. 
Even one that comes in the form of a delicate blonde with haunted eyes.

A tiny town in Wyoming and the fake ID in her pocket are Lexi Adam’s last chance. She's used her all her resources to escape the danger that hounds her. A danger the whole world would agree she brought on herself.

She just wants a chance to start over, to rest for a moment, but the town's upstanding and oh so sexy sheriff is determined to get to the truth behind her lies. 

Even if it gets them both killed.    AMAZON LINK

5 STARS

 This book had a great opening chapter.  It was nothing like what I was expecting but that was also a really good thing.  I remember thinking, "What?".   The emotional parts also had great depth without being sappy. About the time it seemed like things happening in Lexi's life was clear that's about the time another curve was thrown.  It made for an intense and a"grab you" kind of story.

I also joined in with the laughter of Gavin's team of friends.  That was when it came to the obnoxiously named drinks that Lexi was sending Gavin in the bar.   Every time he made a misstep with her, he got a drink like "Pain in the Ass" or "Duck Fart" just to name a few.  Hilarious. 

The other people in the story added without overwhelming.  I feel that even if this is the first story a person has read in the series it would still be a good standalone. 

The story kept me involved all the way through.  With the danger ratcheting up even more with a surprise twist until it comes to a stunning conclusion.  

 By the way, I have to applaud the author in her use of eBook covers for this book and the others in this series.  

For me, this was a 5 Star story all the way !
