OPERATION K-9 BROTHERS by Sandra Owens

25/1/2022

Navy SEAL Jack Daniels (save the jokes, he's heard them all) and his trusty Belgian Malinois sidekick, Dakota, are back home in Asheville, North Carolina, after a bomb left them scarred. Unable to accept that he'll never be able to return to his team, Jack is looking for a miracle. What he isn't looking for is a permanent relationship, though he's open to a no-strings distraction at the magic hands of gorgeous local potter Nichole Masters.

Nichole is on a losing streak with men. Her ex-boyfriend won't stay gone, a competitor is out to ruin her business and even her rescue pup, Rambo, is refusing to get in line. A chance run-in with a navy SEAL turned canine companion trainer might solve the dog problem. The fact Jack is easy on the eyes doesn't hurt, either.

But when Nichole feels like she's being watched, Jack is the only person she can turn to. He's a protector and problem solver by nature and training. Accepting his protection is one thing — Nichole didn't count on falling in love.

I'm a sucker for K-9 suspense stories, I love the military brotherhood, I adore passionate, flirty romance, and pets in books just give another element to dote - and Sandra Owens delivers on all these fronts with great flow, flare, and fire that makes an impression!
With lots of delightful humor and banter that made me chuckle out loud, the author entertained and charmed me with her smoothly flowing tale.
The ardent attraction that flared between Jack and Nichole was deliciously appealing and irresistible. The connection between them was real and true, no doubt about that. The deeper feelings developing and the passion igniting, it all made me smile and sigh and swoon, it was so enchanting with a close second the connection between the doggies and their owners.
The threat that was lurking on every corner, the obstacles in Jack's mind that he had to conquer, the challenges Nicole and Jack faced, it all was wrapped around a story that captured my mind.
Operation K-9 Brothers is the first book in the series, that I am looking forward to reading and devouring.

CODE NAME: VIRGO by Janie Crouch

My code name is Virgo. The stars say I’m practical, honest, stubborn as hell.
Guilty as charged.

Zodiac Tactical is the company that gave me a second chance. We guard, protect, rescue...eliminate the threat when nobody else can. And as a former SEAL, I’m good at those things. Good with weapons, good with missions.
But with people...not so good.

So when a gruesome enemy takes Bronwyn Rourke, one of Zodiac’s newest young recruits—with blue eyes that take up nearly her whole damn face—I shouldn’t take it personally. Shouldn’t allow her to consume my every thought and become my only mission.
They took her because they thought she was alone. Easy prey. That no one would fight for her.
They were wrong.
My code name is Virgo. And I will grind my enemy to dust to bring her home.

What an amazing thrill ride and an emotional roll-a-coaster Virgo was! All the feels are on the surface, the emotions are intense, and the suspense is fierce, even cruel at times, yet nothing overly gory.
I held on, white-knuckling through the twists and turns, loving every moment of it; savoring the sweet, delighting in the passion, relishing catching the bad guys, and cheering on for the survival of the brave, strong, and badass heroine and her truly worthy hero.
Bronwyn and Sarge have one of those connections that makes you believe in soulmates. The way they get each other and understand the trials of their past and challenges of their present, accept each other just as they are - it was tangible, unique in a way that is just them, and so brilliantly, heart-wrenchingly beautiful, it took my breath away.
It doesn't matter what is going on around me or in my life, Crouch's stories captivate and beguile my mind completely. The suspense in this story builds up realities that are freighting and chilling, both globally and personally, making the protagonists bonder what are they willing to sacrifice to protect and save their loved ones.
Zodiac Tactical is proven to be one of my all-time favorite romantic suspense series, and that is saying a lot. The stories will entertain, intimidate, charm and delight, make you swoon, and make you curl your toes with the tension - and heal any kind of reading slump you find yourself in. Highly recommended!!
