TARGET ACQUIRED by Lynette Eason, Reviewed by Rebecca Maney


Lake City Heroes Book #2: (Christian Suspense Thriller with Mystery and Clean Romance)

"You catch more flies with honey, sweetheart. Remember that."

Did her grandmother really know what she was talking about, because Kenzie King was having a difficult time navigating the waters of being the only female on her SWAT team with any measure of decorum. She was extremely qualified to be a tactical medic, Kenzie's law enforcement skills were accompanied by an M. D. which in itself should have earned respect, but still . . . there was that one loud voice above all others who questioned her very presence.

"Beautiful Kenzie King, who took his breath away and pulled all his protective instincts to the surface."

SWAT team leader Cole Garrison was conflicted about his feelings for Kenzie, he was way past the point of ignoring the way he felt, but for the sake of team unity Cole intentionally compartmentalized them on a regular basis. Then . . . she became a target of someone else's deadly ire, putting not only her life, but the lives of his entire team in danger.

What did I love most about this particular romantic suspense? The plotting was extraordinary; strategically placed snippets of family history interrupted the chapter flow, providing an eerie backdrop that tip-toed in and out of relevancy to the characters' present circumstances. That being said, you could practically reach out and touch the unspoken chemistry between Cole and Kenzie; begging to be recognized and yet careful not to breach boundaries, until . . .

The deal was sealed, I loved it!

BackCover Blurb:
Tough-as-nails Kenzie King has finally earned her place as a tactical medic on a SWAT team. But not everyone on the all-male team accepts her. Rumor is, she didn't get the position because of what she could do but because of who she knew. Which means she has to work harder and longer than anyone else to prove herself.

Cole Garrison is a man with deep faith who is finally ready to settle down and build a family of his own--if he can find the right person, that is. Kenzie sure has set off his interest meter, but trouble seems to follow in her wake. Since she joined the team, someone has begun to ambush and pick off team members, one by one.

It's all hands on deck to discover the culprit and end the killing. Can Kenzie and Cole put aside their differences and work together as a team? Or will their budding attraction be snuffed out by a sniper's bullet?

As you've come to expect from bestselling author Lynette Eason's stories, this tightly wound plot unfurls at breakneck speed and will leave you breathless.
