Connor

In the Company of Snipers, Book 5

De: Irish Winters

Narrado por: Troy Duran

How many times can a man say he's sorry? Connor Maher is about to find out. As if dogging the brutal Sonoran Cartel through sun-baked Utah isn't tough enough, he's come face to face with his worst nightmare. Diminutive ex-Marine spitfire, Isabella Ramos, has just three words to say to him: I. Hate. You. Like he hasn't heard that before.

Why was he the one who got to live?

Izza only accepted the Utah operation because of Connor. It's time he knew the truth, but how can she trust him with her life much less the secret she's come to share? He's nothing but grief personified behind the guise of a blue-eyed, honorable man. Not until the cold-blooded SC dumps her and Connor in the farthest corner of the relentless Utah desert does she begin to realize that there are things worse than death.

My favorite in the series...so far!

I've listened to almost all of the books in this series that are available on audio, and I love them all, but this is the one I constantly go back to. The conflict between Izza and Connor, the anger and hurt over everything that happened between them is so palpable and real that it goes straight to my heart! The first time I listened I had a very hard time with Izza's treatment of Connor, and I still do, but hearing the book again and again, I have come to truly understand Izza and to love their journey back to each other even more with time. Add to that the fact that they are forced together to survive being kidnapped and left for dead, and their bond goes even deeper.

Irish Winters writes her characters and plots so well that a lot is conveyed in the simplest scenes and statements, and Troy Duran, as always, brings the story to life beautifully, allowing listeners to feel every emotion, experience every event as if they are right there with the characters. He is extremely gifted and will always be my favorite narrator!

Connor & Ellie!

Irish Winters is going strong with her In the Company of Snipers series! Each one as good as the last, I find myself falling for the hero and thinking she can't write a better one. The last was Harley, and now with Connor, I think I have a new favorite! With the reputation of a playboy, Connor is a constant flirt. Meeting women and turning on the charm is what he does. Izzy is his best friend Jamie's sister, and his flirting took him a little further with her. Now pregnant, and miserable since the death of her brother, Izzy is doing whatever she can to stay away from Connor. But circumstances don't allow it, and their only chance of survival may be to rely on each other. Will they find help in time? Will they realize their true feelings? This is fast paced, and full of suspense. I love a story that has some meat to it, and this one has a great plot. Featuring many of our previously met snipers, and of course Mother, it's an action filled story with a second chance to find love. It's excellent and I can't wait for Rory!

Troy Duran continues his narration of this series. He has me hooked with his smooth voice, pulling me into the story and keeping me captivated. He is the perfect cast for these alpha men, consistent from book to book and makes me just want more!

Captivating!

This 5th book in The Company of Snipers series is captivating from beginning to end. I fell in love with Connor right from the start. Izza took a little longer to like, however as the story developed she drew me in and had me hoping she could forgive Connor and admit she loved him. The story had a lot of action and was difficult to put down once I began listening. Troy Duran is amazing at bringing the story to life and portraying all the characters. Looking forward to the next book in the series.

Another amazing story of loyalty, love, and honor.

The author has given her readers another unforgettable story of love and honor. Every character is a hero before they begin their current mission. All of the men and women are former military people with special skills used by the security company. That is a simple term for the special missions they often find themselves on such as this one with Conner and several other members of Alex's company.

Conner is part of a team sent to back up a DEA team scoping out a dangerous and growing drug cartel. Little did Conner know he would be coming face to face with a former Marine he'd toured with in Iraq. Izza was as tough or tougher than any male marine and spent most of her time proving it. She hated Conner, or so she repeatedly told him. She was tiny but made up for lack of size with her smart mouth and abilities. She knew he would be on this mission and had to tell him sooner or later now might as well be it. Little did she know just how different the mission would become.

Conner didn't want to face Izza again. Didn't want to hear her words of hate. But she was part of the team and he'd do what had to be done. The mission went up-side-down fast and ...well you need to listen or read this one to learn -- no spoilers.

I can tell you that this team and the people who work with them are amazing, expect no metals. They just do their job. Save the people who need saving. Take out those who need taking out. They work together and their combined skills make them a force to match the power of a hurricane.

This is a love story but Izza is a bit hard to take until you learn her story. When they say love conquers all, even sassy, foul-mouthed Izza falls under the saying. Be prepared to have your emotions stretched, from tears, smiles, love, hate, disgust and just about every other emotion. Like all the other stories in the series, it stands alone but will make you want to read more about the people in the team you meet along the way.

The narration is wonderful. I love the deep voice of Troy Duran. He sounds exactly like you expect these guys to sound.

Another Great Addition to the Series!

This is the fifth book in the amazing Series In The Company of Snipers, a Romantic Suspense. I loved to follow Connor and Izza in this amazing and entertaining story. Connor is handsome. Izza is strong and independent. She is a little harder to love, at least for the first part of the story. The storyline is action packed, and filled with twists and turns. Troy Duran is one of my favorite narrators. I love his voice. He did a great job with the narration. I enjoyed it and I highly recommend this story and this Series. Looking forward to listen to the next book in the Series, Rory.

Connor

I liked the plot, the 2 storylines were both interesting. Izza was a witch for the first half of the story & had an immediate personality transplant once she admitted she was in love w/ Connor. I can overlook that for the sake of the story. Most insta-love happens when the outside conflict is the focus. What I can't wrap my mind around is the mercy & understanding they gave the young man who wanted to kill them. Most of these stories imply that the characters are Republicans & we know how much the GOP love their guns/how much they hate Mexicans. It was a perfect storm for them to kill that young man but they didn't. That is the most unbelievable aspect of the whole story. The fact that he was a teenager would have no bearing on the situation irl.
