The Book

Tough-as-nails Kenzie King has finally earned her place as a tactical medic on a SWAT team. But not everyone on the all-male team accepts her. Rumor is, she didn't get the position because of what she could do but because of who she knew. Which means she has to work harder and longer than anyone else to prove herself.

Cole Garrison is a man with deep faith who is finally ready to settle down and build a family of his own--if he can find the right person, that is. Kenzie sure has set off his interest meter, but trouble seems to follow in her wake. Since she joined the team, someone has begun to ambush and pick off team members, one by one.

It's all hands on deck to discover the culprit and end the killing. Can Kenzie and Cole put aside their differences and work together as a team? Or will their budding attraction be snuffed out by a sniper's bullet?

As you've come to expect from bestselling author Lynette Eason's stories, this tightly wound plot unfurls at breakneck speed and will leave you breathless.

Book Review

Target Acquired is the second book in the Lake City Heroes series but can be enjoyed just fine as a standalone as well. 

Talk about a fast-paced adventure that will keep you on the edge of your seat! This one certainly did just that! Right from the start, I was drawn into the action. As the story begins, Kenzie is a new SWAT team member--- but as the only female in a career that is very male dominated, she's got her work cut out for her to prove herself... and not everyone is happy with her new position, and she finds herself with a target on her back leading to this action-packed suspense read which was balanced nicely with the romance too. 

While the contemporary storyline drew me in right away, the story actually had a dual timeline that took us back to the 1940s. I actually really liked this other storyline a lot on its own, but it did take me a while to figure out how the two stories were connected so that threw me a little bit at first. It all makes sense in the end though, and while I'm a still a little uncertain just how I feel about the ending, I really did enjoy the book overall! 

If you're looking for an exciting Christian romantic suspense, this is certainly one to add to your TBR.
