Publisher's summary

An ex-military man returns to his hometown and reunites with his first love in this suspenseful romance—but he's made some powerful enemies that are after them both . . .

Love is the greatest risk of all.

After multiple tours of duty, Brandon Forte returns to his hometown on a personal mission: to open a facility for military service dogs like Haydn, a German shepherd who's seen his share of combat and loss. It also brings him back to Sophie Kim, a beacon of light in his life . . . and the one woman he can't have. But Forte's success means he's made enemies in high places. Enemies who are now after Sophie . . .

When Forte enlisted and left without saying goodbye, Sophie did her best to move on. But with her first love back in town, looking sexier than ever, she's constantly reminded of what they could have had. Then after he risks himself for her, Sophie realizes she'll have to put her life in the hands of the man who broke her heart, knowing the danger—and the sparks between them—could consume them both.

Critic reviews

"4 Stars! With an action-filled plot riddled with suspense and tension, Drake's latest in her True Heroes series is the best one yet. Steady pacing, engaging storytelling and genuine, vulnerable characters (coupled with the endearing heroic dogs that protect and love them) make this romance shine."—RT Book Reviews

Absolutely Enjoyable

This gifted author knows how to create engrossing stories with true yet realistic heroes, both human and canine. I'm already looking forward to book 4!

I particularly enjoyed the way Brandon and Sophie's relationship grew from childhood friends to adult lovers, based on mutual respect and mature affection.

The plot was an interesting mix of suspense, friendship and romance with some explicit but tasteful sex scenes - no alpha jerks, no passive women and an adorable dog.

Absolute Trust

This was another good story. I hope Ms. Drake plans to continue the series. She certainly set up for future tales. I especially enjoyed Sophie adopting a Cream Point Siamese kitty from the cat cafe, lol. Between the men & the dogs, there was a lot of testosterone floating around, lol. A small dose of estrogen was just what was called for! (Siamese are my favorite breed of cat) it really gave the story a little extra sparkle. 👍

I truly love these stories

I truly love these stories where you can see how animals around you can help you heal and that you just have to open your eyes and see who's around you that can make you whole again

not as good as the first two.

I was excited for these two characters to have their own book but it just wasn't as good as the first two. I honestly found myself even fast forwarding parts.
same narrators as the first two and they were still good. just the story or characters or something just couldn't hold my attention.
