5 STARS
When I chose this book to read I hoped I wasn't making a mistake. Why? I would be jumping into a series, but not having read any of the other books first. But I was worrying for nothing, it was great and easy to follow. There is quite a few people that pop up in the story BUT it was so well written it wasn't confusing at all. Add in some great animals as well, especially that one K-9 Greta with her handler Collins. What a great K-9 Greta was, more versatile than anyone expected.
Bree and Matt Flynn are great as a team both personally and professionally. I enjoyed that so much. Even down to Matt being so good with the kids that Bree was raising. That would be Bree's murdered sister's children. That would be 16 year old son, Luke and 6 year old Kayla. They added a richness to the story, as a family and as Bree tries to protect them when they are threatened. Dana has been helping Bree and her family as a nanny but so much more as they view her as family too.
Another "team" that I enjoyed was, Dana and Matt's brother Nolan Flynn. They are good friends who support each other but there's some love sparks there too. I loved that Nolan was a "patient" man about that.
You want a intense story, with surprises as the dangers mount and some romance too? This story has it and was way better than I hope for. The biggest surprise comes towards the end. You'll never guess who is after Dana and why. I always love that in a story. Plus I loved how things ended at the end with all of the families.
