I really enjoyed this clean, love-Inspired, suspenseful romance. I bought this at a local library sale and I voluntarily chose to review this story. I’ve given it a 5* rating. This story pulled me into it from the very beginning and just kept tugging till the very end. There is a lot of action with plenty of bad guys to dislike. I really enjoyed these characters. It was kind of scary with the medical condition to take care of, in the the middle of everything. It does have a happy ending that wrapped everything up. On to my next read.
Kaitlin North is training to become an EMT. She is out with an ambulance crew when they get a call to an isolated cabin. When they arrive shots are fired. Kaitlin is told to stand down and wait until the police arrive but Kaitlin sees lots of blood on the front porch of the cabin and fears the person inside might bleed to death without medical intervention. She breaks into the cabin and finds a man on the floor with extensive bleeding from a leg wound. She doesn’t find out the man’s identity until they get to the hospital. Seems the wounded man is Daniel Ryan, the St. Louis policeman who let Kaitlin off without an arrest when she was a rebellious teenager mixed up with friends into drugs. What a coincidence! Kaitlin believes Daniel saved her life by that kind act. When assassins try to take out Daniel in the hospital while Kaitlin is visiting she helps him escape and they go on the run together. Their pursuers are breathing down their necks the whole time Kaitlin is trying to get Daniel to safety.
Marked for Revenge by Valerie Hansen is the second book in her Emergency Responders series. This book is filled with action, suspense and thrills. Being chased by assassins leads to lots of exciting scenes. Daniel was in hiding after his partner was shot and killed and the police chief believed he was mistaken for Daniel. Daniel had been working undercover and was outted by someone. Thus the assassins on his tail. Valerie Hansen tells this story in a clear, concise way and works in the action scenes quite well. Fans of action and suspense with a couple falling in love in the middle of all the action will enjoy this book.
I received an ebook review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for my fair and honest review.
Romantic suspense is one of my favorite genre’s. This was my first book by this author, and I really enjoyed reading it. The chemistry between Kaitlin and Daniel was special, I would have enjoyed more in the line of other characters in the book because basically they were the whole storyline. Not saying that is a bad thing, only that it limits the involvement I feel in the book in regards to how it tugs on my emotions, I truly need that to happen for a book to grab my total attention. Overall I would give the book a 4/5 rating.
