Genre: Christian Romantic Suspense

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.

Unseen Danger continues the thrilling story of the elite Phoenix K-9 Security and Detection Agency that began with Hidden Danger (Guardians Unleashed, #1). (Each book can stand alone or be read as series installments.)

My Review

Wowza! Unseen Danger hits the ground running and does not let up. The action is fast and fierce, there are questions swirling around the entire narrative that you are craving to know the answers to, and there are parts where my heart was literally pounding, and I caught myself holding my breath.

Nevaeh is the heroine of the story, and it is clear she’s a fighter with a lot of strength. She is struggling with severe PTSD, but she fights to not let it consume her and interfere with her life, but it’s a constant battle. Watching her face her fears and fight to overcome them is something that was so empowering to me. She is a fighter through and through and her strength is truly an inspiration.

Branson is a Herculean hero after my own heart. He’s a Godly man with a heart of gold who is doing all he can to help his sick father while trying to figure out his own purpose in life. Not only does he have physical strength but his spiritual strength is also strong, as well as his heart to protect others. I loved the interactions that Nevaeh and Branson share together, as their chemistry is natural and beautiful, and it’s natural to root for these two.

My favorite part of the entire novel was the PK-9 unit themselves. I love each of them so much!! Their camaraderie is always fun and I love how solid they are, each having one another’s backs no matter what. One of my favorite scenes involved Phoenix and Nevaeh working through some of Nevaeh’s struggles and it’s clear that Phoenix cares about Nevaeh so much without any words being spoken. It’s so nice to see women who truly care about one another, and lift one another up.

Honestly, this was pretty close to the perfect read for me. The characters are realistic and engaging, the premise is entertaining, and you feel vested in this world, and the writing and overall flow was sheer perfection. The only part I wasn’t too crazy about was the ending of the final showdown as I felt like it was a little too unrealistic, but other than that this novel was great! I am so thankful that I had the opportunity to read a novel in this amazing series and can’t wait until I have the opportunity to read them all!

My Rating: ★★★★★
