Ratings and reviews

Great Romantic Suspense with K-9s This book is part of a series with each book centered around a different K-9 and his handler. This story is very tense and suspenseful. The romance is sweet, clean, and turns out well. The book is also faith-filled in a nice way. Each book in the series is written by a different and exceptional author. It has certainly led me to read more of these authors' other works.

I so enjoy books that involve K-9 dogs in various situations! They are amazing assets to the law enforcement community! Cody is a bomb-sniffing dog in this story and Henry is his handler. Henry has been put on administrative leave because someone said he used too much force when he arrested them. Sound familiar in our day and time? However, Henry didn't do it and he's going to prove it! He doesn't like just sitting around the station and neither does Cody!!! Olivia is the Internal Affairs officer who is investigating the allegation. She takes that seriously and has to spend time with Henry to see if the charges are true. However, a bomber suddenly targets Henry & his sister just as the investigation ramps up so Olivia is caught up in it too AND she's pregnant! There was a lot of action, which this author does very well. I liked the characters and the story line. Of course I loved Cody, the dog, too! It's part of a series but I haven't read the other books and totally enjoyed it!

I really enjoyed Explosive Situation by Terri Reed. She always does a great job of creating well developed characters and uses descriptive language in a way that you can easily picture every scene. When I read Explosive Situation - the 4th book in the True Blue K-9 Unit: Brooklyn, I had not yet read any of the previous books in the series. Though there were some references to what happened in previous books, this book was wonderful on its own. I don't feel like anything in the previous books was spoiled to the point of not wanting to read them. The IA investigation made Olivia and Henry instant adversaries from the beginning. It was great to see how they got to know each other and fell in love. Henry's sister Riley's relationship with her brother was totally understandable. You really got an idea for what all the characters were feeling which I thought made the book great. My favorite lines were "But the thread of attraction knitting them together was stronger than her will. In this moment, she was helpless to resist the yearning deep in her soul." The suspense part of the book explodes with action with a bomber targeting Henry, Riley, and Olivia. Cody, the bomb sniffing K-9, plays a big role in trying to keep everyone safe. It was a hard book to put down. I received a free copy of this book from the author without any requirement of submitting a positive review. All opinions are my own.
