Publisher's summary

He carries the burden of his mistakes.

The wounds on Jason Gonzalez’s body are nothing compared to the ones on his heart. The former Marine avoids getting close to anyone new, especially his gorgeous next-door neighbor. Until he hears a scream coming from her house in the middle of the night.

Her enemies are too numerous to count.

Addison Foster escaped an abusive marriage and has become an advocate for others. When an intruder breaks into her home and nearly kills her, Addison is rescued by an unlikely protector. But the threats against her aren’t over, and she needs help.

Danger around every corner.

Jason makes it his mission to keep Addison safe, but keeping her out of his heart proves impossible. As the threats increase, there’s no room for mistakes. Will his calculated risk pay off or will it end in tragedy?

Each book in the series can be read as a standalone.

Very entertaining Christian suspense, romance

This book features Jason and Addison who both have broken parts in their lives. Someone is trying to kill Addison and Jason and his friends work to save her. It is sprinkled with a Christian message which I enjoyed. There is clean romance, lots of suspense, and some great action scenes. And of course I loved the dog. The performance is very good.

Shannon is a new author to me. I really enjoyed her writing style & lovable, relatable characters, including a military dog that is so endearing. There were many twists & turns. Just when I thought I had it all figured out, I was thrown for a loop. I also loved the Christian aspect of the book that was beautifully incorporated with faith, prayer, and love without being preachy. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves a thriller with a good, clean suspense-filled romance.
