Covert Police Detectives Unit Series, book 7

De: Ashley Emma

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

After surviving human trafficking, Alexis gets a second chance at life. Will she use it to find love, or let guilt and fear hold her back?

When she was held captive by a sex trafficking ring who kidnapped women--including Amish women--Alexis was forced to spy on the victims and report to her kidnappers or face horrific consequences. The Amish women she spied on forgave Alexis, and after they were all rescued by the Covert Police Detectives Unit, they even became good friends.

Now that she is widowed, Alexis returns to the Amish community to raise her daughter and open a therapeutic equine center. Her dream is to share her love of horses with those in need of therapy, hoping it will heal her own broken heart in the process.

Ben Banks thought his life was over when his wife Estella died, leaving him to raise their daughter alone. Ben's book deadline is fast approaching, but he hasn't written anything good since his wife's death. Looking for new inspiration, he visits his good Amish friend Derek in Unity, Maine, where he meets Alexis.

He recognizes Alexis right away as one of the trafficked women he helped rescue from that warehouse a few years ago when he worked for the Covert Police Detectives Unit, and instantly feels a connection to her and her young daughter. Soon enough, words begin to flow from his fingertips to his laptop as he can't stop thinking about Alexis. Their daughters form a strong friendship immediately, bonding as they both share a love of horses and learn to ride.

Just when Alexis thinks she will find happiness and closure, a threat from her past comes back for her.

Can these two widowed souls find healing at the Amish stables and get a second chance at love, or will Alexis' dark past keep them apart forever?

I liked the unusual story line. But the repetition of the words "gush”and flat-sounding "thank you” became tiresome.

Very much disliked the narration. Wrong inflections and sterile emotion took away from the tone of the writing.

Unique

Very different from most Amish stories. Was a bit liberal with how open they are with shunned members.

AI reading is awful

AI reading is awful. So hard to enjoy the story and i typically love Amish books. Tried so hard to keep listening but it’s like fingernails lightly on a chalkboard
