About this ebook

Just because helping out is the right thing to do doesn’t make it easy …

Pierce is on the hunt for Salem, a K9 military dog that belonged to Pete, a veteran, who can no longer look after himself or the dog. So the dog has been handed from owner to owner—until she’s become too much to handle—and now the law is involved. No one has Salem’s best interests in mind … and they definitely don’t have Pete’s either. Pierce is about to change all that … whether they like it or not.

Hedi, a young deputy, has lived in Arrowhead, Colorado, all her life and knows Pete and Salem but was helpless to do much when greed overtook his friends and family. She recognizes in Pierce the same qualities that Pete has, and, by Pierce’s actions alone, she knows a corner has been turned. She also understands the locals won’t take it lying down, and this means war …

Pierce served his country overseas for many years, and seeing another veteran in trouble makes him realize the fight isn’t over, even after life in the navy ends. In fact, this battle has just begun. But … this one … Pierce will finish. And he plans to win.

Ratings and reviews

Dramatic, suspenseful and filled with action, this book held my attention very easily. The story itself is engaging and often heartbreaking. I liked Pierce and Heidi and felt emotionally invested in the outcome of this book. The main focus of this entertaining series does not really seem to be romance. So I will say if that is the expectation you go into these books with, I think you will feel shortchanged.

This is the second book in the series and it was a good as the first one. I got sucked right into this story and I couldn't put it down. There were many times this book has me on the edge of my seat. There are some nasty people living in the town and when Pierce comes he really shakes things up. You got to love an alpha male that has a heart of gold. Watching Pierce in action is really something to read. Also don't under estimate Heidi. She's got a lot of heart, but she has the backbone to back it up. I really loved how this one ended. It left me with a smile on my face. I like the set up for the next book because it sounds like it's going to be interesting.

This is book 2 in the K-9 Files series and it features Pierce and Hedi. Pierce is a man of honor. These two hit it off as friends pretty quickly. In a town full of corruption, the good guys tend to gravitate towards each other. The story really tugged at my heart strings. Helping a rehabilitating veteran and his canine veteran war dog stay together, makes for a fabulous read! The action and suspense were great. Even though the story line was amazing, the romance was little on the slow side. Characters, good and bad, were fantastic. The flow of the story was constant and was full of action. I’m looking forward to more!
