DNA technician Dani Jones is chaperoning teens on a mission trip to a reservation when her van is run off the road. Loner and former DEA agent Gideon Marshall finds the van in a ditch and offers Dani and the teens shelter for the night. Later, when illegal drugs are discovered in Dani's van, Gideon offers to help her find out who is framing her and who is after her. This story was fast-paced and action packed, but I never found myself as connected to the main characters as I would have liked to be. I did like Gideon's retired drug-sniffing dog Lou, but I wished Lou would have been featured more throughout the story. Despite these things, this was still an enjoyable enough read.

Woohoo! A spectacular debut romantic suspense and a new favouite Love Inspired author for me to enjoy (hopefully for years to come!)
Lou, the retired drug-sniffing dog captured my heart immediately. What a hero! And as gallant as only a noble K-9 can be! His 'partner', Gideon isn't half bad either -- and just about as furry. :-) Though he has some issues that make him gruff and grumpy and a tad untrusting. Which isn't in Dani's favour 'cause she's in a heap of trouble! Love the way the plot unfolds -- great action and suspense but with enough quality breathing spaces for a relationship to develop even though this all takes place in a whirlwind couple of days!
Jaycee Bullard is on my reader radar now and I'm excited to see what she has in store for her next Love Inspired Suspense novel! Can't wait!

I really enjoyed this book by Jaycee. Its about a young woman who has structured her life because she blames herself for the death of her twin. Dani Jones is such a neat character that is easy to relate to. Gideon Marshall is another person easy to relate to. He blames himself for things that happened and because of that has made some tough decisions. This is her 1st book and it is awesome. I loved how its fast paced and keeps you guessing as to what happens next. She also shows you how you can trust someone and it can be misplaced. For it had happens to both of the characters. You will find this book fascinating to read.

My review today is on the Love Inspired Suspense, Framed for Christmas. This is Jaycee's first book for LIS but I have a feeling we will be see a lot more from her. This book is well written, action packed, and full of faith. I really enjoyed it and I know you will too.

I liked this story. It has all the elements of a great story, a little romance building, danger from unseen attackers, persons who care for each other (basic human kindness) love for animals, and the cold of winter. The characters are very believable, and the plot is easily followed. I do highly recommend this book.

This book is a little different than the usual romance because of the suspense of finding out why the main character is having such trouble. Jaycee Bullard created a nifty little diversion for a hot summer day

I really enjoyed the characters and the whole story. The story of drugs and how innocent people get involved without their knowledge.
