Someone wants her dead.
It’s up to him to make sure that doesn’t happen.
The
first bullet didn’t kill her. But the next one might. With a target on
her back, Battle Mountain reserve officer Isla Vachs has no choice but
to trust Adan Sergeant. The soldier turned bodyguard has one final
mission: protect his best friend’s widow and her daughter. As each step
plunges Adan and Isla deeper into a sniper’s crosshairs, a deadly truth
is about to become chillingly clear…

There was a question that kept cropping up for me and of course the people in the story. How in the world was the assassin picking their victims. They seem so totally unrelated. And the biggest question is why Isla?
The relationship between Mazi and Adan really was special and I liked that. The relationship between Isa and Adan was dicey. Emotional and filled with angst and some guilt on both of their parts. Most of that guilt coming from Clint's death and some how they each feel like they failed him. Of course, it didn't help that Clint was keeping a lot of secrets from them.
I also liked the how the fellow officers in the community had each others back and were such a family. The mayor however you can keep him. That political poser. He causes a lot of trouble.
Several times I just wanted to shake Isla until her teeth rattled. She let her emotions rile her and she stomps out into the open. It's like she totally forgot that someone wants to kill her. And her behavior is something that puts other people in danger as well.
Speaking of danger there will be PLENTY of that. A lot of UNPREDICTABLE danger, which really kept the story jumping. I just never knew what was going to happen next.
The ending was just as intense as the story has been all along. But it has a good ending and even better beginning
