-From Goodreads- A K-9 protection team. An assassin. Only one can survive. An assassin is on the loose in the Twin Cities, aiming to kill FBI witnesses the Phoenix K-9 Security and Detection Agency is hired to protect. Rogue CIA agent Amalia Pérez and her protection K-9 must get the edge on this deadly opponent before he kills her childhood best friend—the only man who knows her true identity. Investigative journalist Michael Barrett can’t believe his eyes when the woman he’s spent years searching for walks back into his life. But he soon fears the woman he loved is lost forever beneath the secrets Amalia wears like armor. As the assassin closes in, Amalia will risk anything to keep Michael safe—anything except believing in the God he trusts. When the layers of deception become as dangerous as bullets, can Amalia and Michael uncover the truth in time to stop the assassin from completing his lethal mission? ASIN: B09ZHHQ5V6 Her past is about to catch up with them both... I've been hooked on the Guardians Unleashed series from the very start, the prequel as a matter of fact. What more could you ask for than riveting suspense and dogs?! And when I say dogs, I mean seriously cool working dogs with jobs as dangerous as their owners... | This Book received a 4 Bark rating. |
One of the things that I loved about Covert Danger was the way Jerusha Agen portrayed her heroine, Amalia. Scarred and jaded by her years as a CIA agent she can't afford to let anyone inside her emotional barriers and day by day she has to try to come to terms with what she has seen and the things she has done. Amalia just seemed to come across as real to me. Michael was one of those rare heroes that I positively disliked throughout most of the story, it was only near the end that he begins to realize what his obsession has cost everyone around him that I began to grudgingly like him after all.
Guardian Unleashed is nothing if not exciting. It is a series that has proven to be intriguing – romantic suspense that borders on thriller status. I have enjoyed every bit of it so far and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone who likes their Christian romantic suspense a touch on the grittier side. Plus, there are dogs...need I say more? As you may have surmised, nevermind that Covert Danger has just released, I CAN'T wait for the next book in Jerusha Agen's Guardians Unleashed series...
