THIS WOMAN AND HER K-9 PROTECT OTHERS. NOW WHO WILL PROTECT THEM?
After a brutal attack, it took Nevaeh Williams six years to rebuild her life. Now a security specialist at the Phoenix K-9 Security and Detection Agency, she faces danger nearly every day. But when an old friend is targeted, her fragile stability begins to crumble.
Celebrity bodyguard Branson Aaberg could lose more than his career if he fails to end the mysterious threat against his client. Soon he’s more concerned with rescuing the tough but vulnerable woman who joins his security team.
Nevaeh is there to protect her friend, but what if she needs protection? What if the feeling she’s being watched isn’t the result of her traumatized imagination? If the danger is real, Nevaeh's only hope for survival may be the God powerful enough to defeat her worst enemy—the one she doesn't see before it's too late.
My review:
I have been looking forward to this book ever since I finished the last one. And it was worth the wait.
Each one of the Phoenix team has been interesting and complex so far, and Nevaeh was no exception to the rule. Subject to panic attacks because of PTSD due to an attack, she is about afraid of her own shadow. Yet she is determined to protect others. It is important to have characters readers like, and she definitely fit the bill. I found myself cheering her on and hoping she could conquer her fears.
Branson was the hero of the story, and you just can't help liking him. A Christian protecting celebrities, he found himself living in a world not at all conducive to living the Christian life, always afraid to speak up about his convictions for fear of losing his job. He is the total opposite of Neveah, and scares her into the next atmosphere by his very huge presence. The two of them together, playing off each other, is quite entertaining.
And Branson is quite amusing with his kitten. Quote from the book that someone made a graphic of: "Who would have imagined Hercules would baby talk to a baby feline named Princess?"
Unseen Danger is a non stop adrenaline rush of suspense and drama, with romance, humor, and faith woven throughout the story. Agen is not preachy about it, but brings forth lessons of faith that her fictional character Neveah needs, and even a wakeup call for Branson.
I am not a dog lover. In fact, I don't remotely like dogs...but I for some reason like them in stories like this. Each of the Phoenix team has a dog they use in their work, and Neveah's was great to read about. And in addition to Neveah and her dog, all of the other Phoenix members and their canine helpers made appearances throughout the book.
My favorite of the books in this series so far is the prequel, Rising Danger. Unseen Danger comes next to it in my opinion. This book had a lot happening in it, and was a book I found difficult to put down.
Agen is a newer voice in Christian suspense, but she is quickly becoming a noticeable one. I definitely recommend this book, and the ones preceding it. And they should be read in order.
I was provided a copy of this book for review purposes. All opinions in this review are my own.
