Review of “Called to Protect” by Lynette Eason

Book review from Amazon.com:

“For the past year, Chloe St. John has been working as a K-9 cop with her German shepherd partner, Hank. After being dumped by her fiancé for another woman, Chloe has decided that Hank is just about the only male she likes. She’s over the whole romance thing and focuses her attention on doing her job. Because a serious case of human trafficking with connections to her missing cousin just landed in her lap.

When US Marshall Blake MacCallum’s daughter goes missing, he’s ordered to kill the judge he’s protecting and tell no one about his daughter’s disappearance or she will die. Blake races against the clock to rescue his daughter while Chloe and Hank are asked to be a part of the task force assembled to bring down the traffickers. Chloe finds herself attracted to the silent, suffering man, but thanks to her previous bad judgment, she wonders if she can trust him. And can Blake trust himself around this firecracker of a woman?

Bestselling author Lynette Eason warns readers to buckle in for a fast and furious ride that will have their hearts pumping from the very start.”

My Review:

Wow and wow.  I’m going to be careful about giving spoilers here so as not to dampen the suspense.

The suspense and action never stops in this book until the resolution of the story. The storyline could come from today’s newscast.  The characters are great and I loved the family aspect to this story.  Even though this is the second book in the series, this one stands on its  own very well.  Lynette Eason has just moved onto my list of favorite Christian suspense writers.

This is a clean book with no foul language or embarrassing scenes.  It’s so well-written it doesn’t need those things to make it a great story.    Highly recommend this book.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.
