I liked the premise and most of the characters are very likeable hence the 2 stars but I did quit reading half way through. The rescues were too easy. They just seemed to have the info they needed and be in the right place and I felt like I was missing chunks of the story. They talk about people like I should just know what's going on. Not for me.

This is a well written story with great characters. I really think you will enjoy this one I know I did. I stared this series with book 3 and it was so good I wanted to read the rest of the series. I can't wait to read the rest of the series. I would encourage everyone to go get this one and enjoy.

Hmmmmmm
Well, the first half of the book I skipped a bunch of pages because the description of how they feel about each other got nauseatingly redundant. The second half was much improved with action going on.

The dialogue was what made it bad for me.

Great storyline. This is the second book I have read about the Red Mark group.
This is about Sam Redley Kelleher who is a former Navy Seal who is in love with Cassidy Winter and her daughter Grace.
Cassidy's ex has some deadly enemies and they kidnap her to try and get her to turn over the money that her ex has taken. She escapes and Sam helps to keep her and Grace safe while also trying to find her ex-huband.
I won't go into any more details, you will just have to read it yourself. It was a great read with a HEA.

This is the full story of San Redley Kelleher and Cassidy Winters from Montana's Bravest. It is a gripping story involving danger, suspense, love, fears, past tragedies, and hope. Sam is a partner in Red Mark which specializes in rescue and protection. They mainly focus on rescuing children. When her past catches up with Cass, will Sam be in time to rescue her and her daughter from a deadly killer? Intense page turner!
