Olivia, eight months
pregnant and with her three-year-old Aaron, has been on the run for
six months. She married her brother’s best friend. They were both
soldiers, but when they came back from the war and joined a band or
mercenaries they changed. Her husband was no longer interested in the
family. He’d become more interested in money. When he was killed,
Olivia became a target for the mercenaries including her own brother.
For six months,
she’s felt safe, but one day on the way home from the church, she’s
grabbed and forced into an alley. Luckily Ryker, an ex-soldier, has
been watching her. He intervenes and convinces her that she has to
run again. Although she doesn’t want to trust another soldier,
Ryker begins to earn her trust.
This book is filled
with suspense and violence from the first pages. It moves quickly and
keeps your attention hoping Olivia and Ryker will escape. Although
this is a romance, there are no sex scenes and there is an emphasis
on Olivia’s religious background.
I liked Olivia.
She’s a fighter. She’s been on her own for six months and had to
fight off one attack on her life. She’s attracted to Ryker, but she
doesn’t immediately fall into his arms. She’s cautious where she
gives her love for a second time. Ryker is also a good character. He
wants to take care of Olivia and has feeling for her, but he doesn’t
push her.
If you enjoy a
romance filled with action, this is a good one.
