Ratings and reviews

Reviews and reasons for enjoying a particular book are subjective as for myself, I thoroughly enjoyed Honoring Lena. Blackard seamlessly accomplishes tying up the series and introducing characters that will be featured in a future series all within the confines of Lena and Marshall's story. She does it well and with feeling. The author takes preconceived notions, misunderstood circumstances and personal baggage then proceeds to blend them into understanding, changes in perspective, and a shift in priorities in a return to leaning upon God and following His Will with a healthy dose of intrigue, action and introspection. The interplay between Lena and Marshall, how two people can have the same goal, but totally different grasps on the situation was interesting to see and as the reader we got a front row seat to both sides of the same coin and how that worked into both their working and personal relationship. Meeting Lena's large family added another layer to her character. All of this could easy bog down the story but each sentence both moved the story along and fleshed out these newly introduced characters. I have enjoyed all seven books of the Stryker Series and look forward to this next one! I received an advance copy of this book. The review is my own.

This is book seven in The Stryker Security Force Series and it is Lena and Marshall's story and omg it is a must read. Marshall is a single dad to Carter after his wife was killed and while in a restaurant completing a business deal he received a note warning him what will happen to his son if he doesn't cooperate with what they want so all Marshall wants to do is get to his son to make sure that he is safe. Lena works for Stryker Security and she was working undercover as a nanny for Carter who was cracking her heart open a little bit every day which was no good as she was a tough person especially after her fiance Ethan was killed while they were both on assignment in the military so she couldn't afford to be weak or vulnerable but that seemed to be happening while she is with Carter. When danger threatens get again they need to disappear but will she be able to keep them safe and what is going on with her feelings for Marshall which shouldn't be happening at all. There are many twists and turns along the way that you don't see coming and that is what makes this book a real page turner and totally addictive. I have to say that I absolutely love this series and each book just gets better and better and i couldn't put this one down as I wanted to see what would happen next. Sara Blackard is an amazing author and writer and I definitely recommend you read this book, series and other books by her and you will definitely not be disappointed as she certainly knows how to keep her reader's attention and on the edge of their seats. I Voluntarily Reviewed an Arc Copy of this Amazing Book.

Lena is a rough and tumble, tough bodyguard who takes no nonsense from any one.....except a cute little boy. A cute little boy whose father caused the death of Lena's fiance and the person after whom the Stryker force is named. When trouble finds them, they head to the wilderness to try and outrun their pursuers..... If you enjoyed the previous books, then you will love this too. I received this as an ARC and leave this review voluntarily.
