He’s the last client she wants to protect…
Elite Guardians bodyguard/former sniper CHRISTINA SHERMAN has protected uncooperative clients before—but this time, well her client is bossy, headstrong and occasionally eats off the floor. Yes, he’s a highly trained military working dog, but certainly her skills could be put to better use, right?
Not according to former Special Forces Air Commando GREY PARKER. He needs her help to protect his dog while he undergoes an experimental surgery that could restore his ability to walk. He just needs someone to keep his canine partner safe. Most of all, Grey wants back on his feet so he can track down a deranged scientist known as The Scavenger who unleashed a nerve agent that left Grey sidelined in a wheelchair.
When an attempt is made on Grey’s life, and dead bodies begin piling up—with evidence the same toxin is responsible—suddenly Christina is tasked with keeping both dog and soldier alive…and with them, the secrets that could stop a terrorist attack.
But this time, even Christina might be in over her head.
Dive into the exciting ignition to the Elite Guardians Collection.
My Thoughts:
In typical Lynette Eason fashion, Driving Force by Lynette Eason and co-authored by Kate Angelo features a high-stake chemical warfare race to justice. With characters like Christina, Greg, and the dog, Boss, the characters are fully developed, have a dark past that colors their view of the current situations. Angelo does a good job at having the characters play off these dark wounds and allows them to motive the characters in their current situations. As for the plot, their, of course, were plenty of moments of running from bullets and trying to chase down the Dr. and / or the Russians who are producing the chemical warfare. There were many high-octane moments that were mirrored over and over again, so it did not seem that inventive. With the dog and all his training, it reminded me a lot of Ronie Kendig’s A Breed Apart series, which I loved. I love seeing working dogs who are highly intelligent and put their lives on the line for our country too. Overall, Sunrise Publishing is definitely doing a wonderful thing by allowing accomplished authors to mentor unpublished authors and allow them to craft stories from the accomplished authors secondary characters. I love this idea. I believe that James Patterson started this, but this is the first of its kind for the Christian Publishing industry.
I received a complimentary copy of Driving Force by Lynette Eason and Kate Angelo from Sunrise Publishing, but the opinions stated are all my own.
