Securing Kalee

SEAL of Protection: Legacy, Book 6

De: Susan Stoker

Narrado por: Savannah Peachwood

After her capture by rebels in the mountains of Timor-Leste, Kalee Solberg doesn’t think she’ll live to see her father, friends, or hometown again. What started as an adventure with the Peace Corps until she figured out what to do with her life has turned into a waking nightmare, every day a struggle to survive. Beaten into submission, Kalee guesses she’s been presumed dead by now. And she has been...by everyone but one man.

A childhood filled with abuse and neglect has turned Forest “Phantom” Dalton into the kind of man who finishes what he starts. The failed mission to rescue Kalee Solberg is no exception. After discovering she’s still alive, that he and his SEAL team left her to a fate worse than death, Phantom will stop at nothing to bring her home, with or without permission...and no matter the cost to his career.

Neither Phantom nor Kalee could ever guess another equally grave threat awaits them back home.

Securing Kalee is the sixth book in the SEAL of Protection: Legacy series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliff-hanger endings.

Not her best

I have read almost all of Stoker's books 2 or 3 times each. This was not her best. Yes, I will read it again but it seems a bit padded. Some judicious editing was warranted. It would have been better as a novella. update: after listening again, I changed my mind. At first I thought the subplot was week; it isn't Stoker's strongest. After realizing I have met crazies like Mona, I give it a pass.

Safe

I have been so anxious for Phantom and Kalee's story and the author did not disappoint! Phantom had to make a decision and knew he made the right one no matter what the consequences would end up being. The way he did little things to get Kalee through/ready certain situations was so hurt warming and her fierce protectiveness of him make them perfect for each other. This book was everything I had hoped it would be.

Kalee’s home

If you have been following Susan Stoker’s Seal of Protection: Legacy series, you would be like me, anxiously awaiting the time when, and if, Kalee Solberg, Piper Johnson’s (Securing Piper, Seal of Protection: Legacy Book 3) best friend, would be rescued.

You would be wondering about the unfinished business that Forest “Phantom” Dalton was obsessing about. Wonder no more, because Susan Stoker has given our gruff hero his much needed happily-ever-after!

I could not turn off the audiobook, not even when I needed to do something else, because Susan Stoker, and her narrator Savannah Peachwood, kept me glued to how everything will work out in the end, and I was not disappointed at all.

Thank you, Susan Stoker, for another five star read!

Appreciated the Build Up

There were hints about this storyline in previous books so I knew this one would be good. Susan didn't take too long to get her out of Timor-Leste. Phantom was able to provide exactly what Kalee needed in order to move on with her life and not be a victim. And I love the over arching theme that continued throughout all of these books. The women weren't damsels in distress. The women and men both saved each other and that is so appreciated.

Phantom is awesome!

Phantom is one of my favorite characters. I knew this book would be awesome. it had everything you could ask for in storyline and character.

I love all of Susan's books. she is my favorite author.

Great end to a great series

I have been waiting for this book since Securing Piper and was not disappointed. This book took me on a emotional rollercoaster I never wanted to get off of. Susan Stoker did it again!

Emotional Edge

Securing Kalee starts opens on an emotional edge and stays there for most of the story. This is definitely the book that you need to be in the mood to listen to. For the first several chapters we are immersed in the world of Kaylee. Where she is such a strong woman, but one that has a long way to fight her way back into the everyday world. And her champion, Phantom, he does the best that he can for her. Having been in similar situations, he is aware of her at all times. I did wonder at times how someone that suffered such trauma could be helped by just one person without seeing a professional. However, there are times to set aside reality and then there are times when the reality is that people often are strong enough that they never do seek professionals for their issues. This makes for a tough listen.

Phantom and Savannah both have their hurts and baggage. We get to see them both resolve issues and face the future. The ending as well as the epilogue was a very nice touch and a catch up with everyone. Savannah Peachwood was wonderful in narrating both Kalee and Phantom. She was able to enhance the story and keep the voices on an even keel even through the difficult emotions.

love this book

I knew she was still alive and I love how he never give up hope that he would find her with that being said I thought the story was a little rush but other than that a good read

Another Satisfying Happily Ever After

I had been looking forward to Kalee's story since we met Piper. It was definitely worth the wait!

The guest appearances were largely unexpected and very satisfying to end the series.

so good

I love this book. I was waiting for it for so long and it was worth the wait.
