Collateral Damage

Honorably discharged from the Army after an explosion nearly killed her, former military psychiatrist Brooke Adams has set up shop to help others—but her days of helping military personnel are over. She's got her own battles to fight from her time overseas, and she's not equipped to take on more. Former Army Special Ops Sergeant First Class Asher James could handle anything that war sent his way—terrorists, bombs, bullets. The only thing that scares him now is sleep. As the shadows close in, the nightmares begin.

Finally convinced that he needs help, Asher makes an appointment with a counselor, and Brooke is pressed by her boss to take him on. When he arrives at her office she isn't there—but a dead body is. Brooke is devastated when she walks in, and Asher is a conveniently strong shoulder to cry on. But she can't take him on as a client after sharing such an intimate and unprofessional moment, can she? And he's not sure he can handle sharing his deepest fears with such a beautiful woman.

When it becomes clear that Brooke was the real target of the attack—and that her secrets go even deeper than his own—Asher vows to protect her no matter what

Acceptable Risk

Sarah Denning is a military journalist with the Army in the Middle East when her convoy is attacked and she's taken hostage. When former Army Ranger Gavin Black is asked by his old unit commander--Sarah's imposing father--to plan an extremely risky rescue, he reluctantly agrees and successfully executes it.

Back in the US, Sarah is livid when she's discharged on a false psychiatric evaluation and vows to return to the Army. Until she learns of her brother's suicide. Unable to believe her brother would do such a thing, she puts her plans on hold and enlists Gavin to help her discover the truth. What they uncover may be the biggest story of Sarah's career--if she can survive long enough to write it.

Strap in for another breakneck nail-biter from bestselling romantic suspense author Lynette Eason that will have you up turning pages long into the night.
 


MY REVIEW:  "Acceptable Risk" is Book Two in author Lynette Eason's thrilling inspirational romantic suspense series, "Danger Never Sleeps". Sarah Denning is a military journalist serving as a guest instructor at a school in the Middle East. When terrorists capture her and a young teacher and twelve female students, the situation is grim, and there is only a slim chance of survival. Sarah's father, a high-ranking member of the US Army, calls in Gavin Black, a former Army Ranger now working as a private security agent, to rescue Sarah and the girls. Sarah is painfully estranged from her father, and she and Gavin once briefly dated--now she is stunned to have been saved by the actions of these two men working together. Just as they prepare to return stateside, they receive the devastating news that Sarah's younger brother, who had been suffering from PTSD, has committed suicide. Sarah doesn't believe that her brother took his own life, and when she and Gavin begin their own investigation, they discover other similar cases of supposed suicide. Working side-by-side under such emotional circumstances brings Sarah and Gavin closer together, but can they survive the danger around them and find future happiness with one another? "Acceptable Risk" is highly recommended for lovers of fast-paced, involving romantic suspense.

MY REVIEW:  Author Lynette Eason concludes her riveting, contemporary inspirational romantic suspense "Danger Never Sleeps Series" with Book Four, "Hostile Intent". After a decade spent in military service, during which time her father died, Ava Jackson returns to civilian life to care for her ailing mother. When Ava is attacked after visiting her mother in the nursing home, an old friend, Caden Denning, comes to her aid. Caden, the brother of Ava's best friend Sarah, is an FBI Special Agent, and a case he's working on has links to Ava and her father. To the world at large, Paul Jackson was a travel reporter, but to a select, deadly group of elite undercover spies, he was a highly-skilled CIA operative. Ava, prized by her father for her intelligence and her own intuitive abilities, was very close to her father, and she came to her own conclusion that he worked for the CIA. She was the one person in his life who had his ultimate trust. After his mysterious death, she must follow the instructions and clues that he left behind, and she and Caden work together to so solve the grisly series of murders which all somehow link back to Paul Jackson. Longtime acquaintances and part of a circle of friends who grew up together and shared many memories, Ava and Caden had been unaware that they each had a crush on one another. Now, spending so much time together and having to rely on each other, friendship and attraction are merging into something more personal and powerful--could it be love? If they can solve the gruesome serial killings and bring the mastermind to justice, will the way be cleared for a bright and happy future? "Hostile Intent" is a terrific finale to a great series, which I highly recommend for lovers of thrilling, well-written, inspirational contemporary romantic suspense.
