Final Showdown


While investigating the gun smugglers the team has been chasing, ATF agent Daniel and K-9 Dakota (a Great Dane) get caught in a gunfight but they are not sure if the assailant is after Daniel or Aurora the crime scene tech or why.  But, Daniel insists Aurora stay with him at his house, which Aurora soon finds is a big fortress loaded with cameras and many other safety features.  In the meantime, Daniel and his Grandmother are taking care of a toddler, Joy, because her mother is dying and this is all the family she could find for her daughter.  But when the killers find a way to infiltrate his house and threaten him, Aurora and his family, it is his team he calls for help. 

This a very fast paced, suspenseful audio, with tons of action.  I love the characters and really am not ready to see the team breakup, as they are now like family.  The voice actor did a awesome job narrating this audio, she really brought the story to life.  I really like this book and this series a lot.


 

Colorado K-9 Rescue


McKenna’s nightmare has come true, the person prosecuted for her kidnapping when she was a teen, is out on parole, and the disappearances start again.  As McKenna’s hears what the victim says while there with victim support dog Mocha and FBI agent Evan about her ordeal.  McKenna starts to see the similarities with her kidnapping but no one takes her seriously until she disappears again, and Even with Mocha’s help must put the pieces together before it is to late.

I really liked hearing this story as Mocha is not the typical K9 one would experience in connection with law enforcement.  But Mocha has a few tricks up her sleeve as they all find out.  I really enjoyed the voice actor that narrated this audio the voice really just worked for me as McKenna’s.  This book is a clean, refreshing, fast pace, suspenseful thriller.  This audio does not disappoint.


 

Double Protection Duty


This is book 7 in the Dakota K-9 series, and unfortunately, I have missed a few in the series and would love a chance to review those as well.  These are really wonderful K-9 books most follow the job outright but none totally but I can see why.  In this book one of Kenyon’s twins is kidnapped and he wants and needs his teams and longtime friend (if not more) Raina to help to get his son back, as those are the people he trusts most when time is short.  Raina is the person that took the twins in as her own when Kenyon was missing for quite a while and even when the team found Kenyon, but helped him get the help he needed to remember his sons and everything else so he could be the father he once was.  But now Kenyon is back fully and where does that leave Raina who had thought for a long time she would be the boy’s mother. 

This is a wonderful clean story of fear, faith, and love.  I liked this book a lot and the voice actor did a awesome job.  I love the characters, especially the boys as it captured them well.  I hope there is more to the series and I get to listen to all of them.

This is a wonderful audio with great voice actor that brings the story to life with her voice.  This is a clean Christian story that is centered on Rory and Asher’s relationship as they come together and terms with the past, not to mention a pup named Moose that rounds it all out.

Escaping the Wilderness

Amanda fulfilling her grandfathers dying wish finds herself in a chase for her life.  Soon rescue comes in the form of outdoorsman and wilderness pro Boone McGregor and dog Cookie.  But soon she must reveal a secret she never wished to reveal in hopes it will save her and Boone.

This is a good, clean, Christian book that is told through a wonderful voice actor.  It inspires hope, love, faith, and hope.  This is a really good audio that is well worth it.

 

Texas Ranger Defender

Texas Ranger Tucker Powell hears shots and soon finds a woman covered in blood and a dead body on his ranch.  But is she the victim or assailant, no one knows because she can’t remember any of what happened.  She might not remember, but the killers do and are after her real quick and now Tucker and her have to make a stand or run.

This is a clean and wonderful audio.  The voice actor was great and transported me into the story.  This book shows there are still some good guys out there but you might need to be covered in blood and have people shooting at you to find them.

Dexter the Stand Up Dog


This is a story of a families beloved dog that gets hit by a car and looses a front leg.  But Dexter finds his own way to deal with his predicament and his will to be able to run and jump and play like he used too. 

This is a wonderfully told and illustrated book about love, kindness and perseverance, and a little active dog who won’t say I can’t.  This book is so good and the illustrations help bring it to life.  It shows the heartbreak but also the love to bring a little dog some normality in his new world that isn’t so normal any more.


 

The Poisoned King

 


Christopher dreamed of going back to the archipelago, and it came true, but he found the world he loved was in trouble.  There is a poison and it is spreading through the land and killing dragons.  Christopher and the sphinx must root out the source and stop it before all the dragons are gone.

Oh my this book was quite the ride, it was such a whirlwind of activity that it kept me reading past my bedtime to see what happened next.  The range of characters was so interesting and who they put there difference aside to work together to help fix the problem.  I really can not wait to see what is next for Christopher.
