For working military dogs, exotic settings, and non-stop danger

Chaos features Steffani Webb writing in Ronie Kendig’s A Breed Apart story world. For a debut novel, I can’t wait to see what Steffani does next!

Rio Silva wants to prove herself, but going on a mission to find her missing relatives in the Philippines wasn’t exactly part of her plan. Not to mention teaming up with the mysterious and aloof Catha McGowan. Together with Chaos, a retired working military dog, they face the jungle and some pretty serious bad guys to free Rio’s aunt and uncle from captivity.

I loved this story from start to finish. The banter between Rio and “Ireland” was spot on, the action and suspense kept me hooked and of course, Chaos steals the show.  I highly recommend Chaos for all suspense and thriller fans. Bonus for audiobook fans – the dual narrators made this story come alive. Great narration.

Havoc by Ronie Kendig gives readers more military working dogs! If you loved the original A Breed Apart series, you’ll love this spin-off. Ronie’s military thrillers are my favorite, and having working dogs just adds to the adventure. In Havoc, readers meet Crew Gatlin and his trained Belgium Malinois, Havoc. After being injured in combat, Crew and Havoc take a job in the movie biz, where he meets stunt double Vienna Foxcroft. But things go from bad to worse when the movie crew is attacked in a foreign country.

There is never a dull moment in Havoc. I love the suspense and twists all the way until the end. I love the chemistry between Crew and Vienna. She’s tough as nails, but Crew manages to get past her self-imposed armor (not that he doesn’t have any baggage of his own). And naturally, Havoc steals the show.

This is a great start to the new series! I can’t wait for Chaos, which introduces a new up and coming author Steffani Webb.

Driving Force by Kate Angelo, presented by Lynette Eason, is a must-read for fans of fast-paced suspense. This story picks up where the original Lynette Eason Elite Guardians series left off. Readers will love to revisit their favorite characters while getting to meet the new Elite Guardians, an all-female bodyguard agency.

Christina Sherman is an ex-Army sniper-turned-bodyguard. She meets Grey Parker at a public event where there is an assassination attempt on the governor. Grey gets a front row seat to watch Christina in action, and he has an assignment of his own for her. He hires the Elite Guardians to protect his partner while Grey undergoes an experimental surgery. He was injured in action when exposed to a deadly toxin which left him in a wheelchair. If the surgery is a success, he will be able to walk again. But little does Christina know that Grey’s partner, Boss, is a highly specialized Belgian Malinois who is trained to sniff out the toxin that caused his injury. A toxin that if fallen into the wrong hands would spell disaster.

This story has plenty of action and suspense but add Boss to the equation and the story becomes doubly intriguing. Boss isn’t your average dog, and Christina finds herself in danger more times than she can count trying to keep Boss from getting kidnapped. Or is that dog-napped?

The characters definitely drive the story alongside the action-packed plot. I love the budding romance between Grey and Christina. Both have complex pasts that have kept them focused on their jobs. But their chemistry is flammable, and I enjoyed watching a few sparks ignite.

If you love high-octane action with heart-warming characters, look no further. Be sure to check out this incredible debut novel from Kate Angelo. I can’t wait to read more from her in the future.

I received an ebook review copy of this book. All opinions expressed in this review are my own.
