Stacy Eaton treats us to the sequel of her Second Sheild story and keeps us on the edge til the very end. This picks up where book 1 left off.

Mack is dealing with her own life. 40, pregnant and alone, she is dealing with it the best she can. She has the shoulder of Chris to lean on, and his strength is helping her get through. There is a serial killer on the loose too, and trying to piece the clues together is proving difficult. When Drew returns and wants his life back, finds Drew and the threat that the killer can bring to her, all bets are off. Will she take him back? Will she want to be with Chris? Or will the killer take all the decisions away? Eaton keeps the emotions high in this one. The kids play a big role and they are adorable. I love that Eaton brings her law enforcement experience and theories into the story. The serial killer is original and so realistic it’s scary! The best kind of romantic suspense and the ending is priceless!
Haven R Powers finishes the series with an enjoyable narration. I did find it difficult at times to distinguish who was speaking, but the suspense was high and emotions perfectly executed. I enjoyed the story.
