BOUND BY DUTY

Assignment: single mom surveillance

The Military K-9 Unit series continues

Her serial killer brother's escaped -- and it's single mom Zoe Sullivan who's under suspicion. Sgt. Linc Colson trusts two things: his instincts and his Rottweiler K-9 partner, Star -- and certainly not the pretty face he's assigned to monitor. He's done everything to keep her from getting under his skin -- now he must stop those who want to put her six feet under.

My Review:

Woohoo -- the second book in the Military K-9 Unit series continues the desperate hunt for a serial killer and includes a mystery unique to this story. These books can be read as standalones despite the over-arcing suspense thread that will play out over the course of the series. Hansen did a great job of picking things up where events in Mission to Protect left off but in such a way that it would be easy for someone who hasn't read that first book to comfortably read this one. No small feat when you consider the number of characters (including K-9s) we need to keep track of. Not to mention the serial killer on the loose!

Can you imagine having a brother capable of murder? And if that isn't awful enough -- to have people think you could actually be aiding and abetting him? That's the impossible predicament Zoe finds herself in. She's hurt and angry -- a fiery dynamo who isn't afraid to stand up for herself...and she's had to do that a lot lately. Especially where her unwanted 'shadow' is concerned. Linc may only be following orders but she's had enough of his not-so-covert surveillance and we get to enjoy the fireworks!

As far as Linc's concerned, Zoe's guilty until proven innocent - he's suspicious like that. And he's a bit of a grump. He might have his reasons but there were still times I wanted to slap him upside the head. :) Especially since his K-9 partner, Star, is a Zoe fan from the get go and we all know that dogs are the best judges of character. But while Linc trusts his four-footed partner in everything else, he seems oddly reluctant to give Zoe the benefit of the doubt.

But she makes it hard to stay aloof especially when it appears that someone has drawn a target on her back. Strange turns to creepy and then downright dangerous as Linc and Zoe (and Star the K-9 Rock Star) race to find answers before Zoe ends up dead!

An intriguing, fast-paced romantic suspense that delivers an edge-of-your-seat read.
