About the Book

Tactical Force

Title: Tactical Force Series: Triumph Over Adversity #6 Author: Lynn Shannon Publisher: Creative Thoughts, LLC Release Date: February 28, 2023 Genre: Christian Romantic Suspense

Some wounds never heal.

As a former Navy SEAL, Walker Montgomery faces danger without flinching. But not even a combat zone halfway around the world was far enough to escape the trauma of his teen years. His younger sister was murdered and the killer never caught. Since returning home, he’s been quietly working the case, unable to move on with his life until justice is served. She’s a survivor. Hayley Barlow has her own tragic childhood. Abducted and held captive, she barely escaped the clutches of the same killer that murdered Walker’s sister. The invisible scars on her heart and the brand on her shoulder are souvenirs she can’t get rid of. When Hayley receives a taunting phone call from her attacker, she turns to Walker for help. A race to stop a killer. Walker is committed to safeguarding Hayley, but their closeness fractures the walls surrounding his heart. As the killer draws them into a deadly game of cat-and-mouse, nothing is as it seems. Walker is used to taking the fight to the enemy, but this time, with Hayley’s life on the line, it may cost him more than he’s willing to lose.

My Thoughts:

What do you do when you were kidnapped by a serial killer who killed your friend in front of you when you were still in high school? Well, you get trained in the Army and pursue a career in law enforcement. At least that is what Hayley Barlow did until a recent injury sidelined her. Now ten years later, coming back to her hometown had never been part of her plan, but her mother passed away and she has some personal matters to take care of. Little did she know that her coming back home would reawaken her abductor's appetite. 

Walker's sister was murdered and his girlfriend, Hayley was kidnapped. Even though they broke up, Walker was not going to stop looking for the murderer. He does not believe the killer stopped, in fact he is convinced he has been abducting and killing women all this time. But how can he connect the dots? Also, he will do anything to keep Hayley safe as he still has very strong feelings for her. Can they reawaken their romance and dreams after Cassanova is brought to justice? Maybe if he survives. Hayley is not the only one Cassanova wants, he wants Walker to play his sick game too.

This was a riveting page turner that kept me up late into the night and I woke up early just to get back to the story. I did not figure out who Cassanova was, there were plenty of suspects to choose from. The first few opening pages was a bit creepy, but they really set the atmosphere for the life and death race Hayley and Walker find themselves in against this very obsessed killer. I wanted to keep the lights on! This is number six in a series but can definitely be read as a standalone. This is also the first book I have read by author Shannon, and I will be taking a look at what I have been missing in this entire series. 

I was provided a copy of this novel from the author. I was not required to post a positive review and all views and opinions are my own.
