Texas Target Standoff

What I have seen is that there is evil in the world, and someone needs to be there to intervene when necessary. Dr. Shelby Warren is a psychologist who specializes in working with military clients, particularly with those suffering with PTSD. The study of PTSD has come a long way since my studies in college, but the suffering certainly hasn’t changed. Returning into service before they are ready can bring disastrous results to themselves and those around them. Needless to say, most want to get back in uniform as quickly as possible, including our SEAL, Paul Avery. However, when threats leave the doc wondering who wants her dead, he is no longer the patient but the protector. The action never ends in this incredibly written story. Shots fired, a bomb threat, car crashes and more will keep you trying to figure this one out right up till the end. What has she done that has put her in the crosshairs? Perhaps the biggest question for both is whether or not they will trust the Lord enough to learn to smile again. This ARC was received through Love Inspired Suspense and CelebrateLit.

We are back in Texas with another of the Avery siblings in this clean Christian suspense romance. Paul Avery, a Navy SEAL, is still recovering from an injury and a tragedy in his last mission.

While he is not happy with the evaluation, he will do anything to get back to his Team. But suddenly Shelby becomes his mission when her life is in danger. He’ll do anything to keep her safe. Who is trying to kill her and why is the biggest question. As the danger intensifies, so do feelings. But each of them have to find a way to forgive themselves and survive the danger. This rollercoaster ride will keep you guessing and hoping that in the end, they will solve the mystery and find love and their faith in God. I was entrusted a copy of this book.
