Resumen del Editor

From Wall Street Journal best-selling author Brittney Sahin comes a thrilling new standalone second-chance romantic suspense featuring a grumpy wounded warrior and the sunshine-to-his-gloomy-skies he never got over.

When Tessa finds herself in a foreign country with no clue how she got there, it’s just her luck that the only person who can help her is the same man who once broke her heart.

Gray Chandler, co-founder of Falcon Falls Security, was given a second chance at life after a helicopter crash in the Army. What he never expected was to fall for his physical therapist—his colonel’s off-limits daughter.

After sharing one hot night with Tessa, he promised himself he’d move on and never look back. But 13 years later, her late-night call for help sends him on a mission like no other. And this time, there’s no turning his back on her or his feelings.

Tessa Sloane never forgot her first physical therapy patient back in college. The handsome, rugged, and stubborn Green Beret had been a challenge, but he also stole her heart. Only to break it, leaving her unlucky in love ever since.

When Tessa bumps into Gray in her 30s, and is in need of a rescue, she’s surprised it feels as though their summer together was only yesterday. And their sizzling-hot chemistry is even stronger than before.

But in the face of danger, where old friends become new enemies, and lies and betrayal are at every corner, Gray and Tessa quickly realize “what can go wrong will".

No longer the broken man Gray thought he was, he’ll do whatever it takes to save Tessa, even if it means sacrificing their second chance at forever.

Terrific Story & Listen🎧Gripping & Emotional!

This fantastic romantic suspense is captivating from start to end and I loved everything about it, from Britney Sahin’s wonderful writing style to the fabulous characters and storylines she created to the perfect cast narrators who bring is all to life from the pages to your ears. This book is the fourth in the series but stands on its own, sometimes when you jump into an existing series you feel like something is missing, i.e. world building, but no worries here, everything you need to know is detailed. Though I am excited to check out the earlier books in the series, as well as her other series. “The Taken One” is Gray Chandler and Tessa Sloane’s story, and wow, what a story it is. Gray, former military, was injured while serving in the US Army, he recovered from his injuries and is going to physical therapy to learn to walk again with his new prosthesis. He and the therapist he worked with grew a special bond, but she is leaving to finish school and when he goes to say goodbye to her, he learns she is his colonel’s daughter and completely off-limits. Despite the colonel warning him to stay away from her, their goodbye turned into a memorable night, one neither one forgot. Fast forward eleven years, they run into each other again, she and her friend have their own practice and Gray is considering moving back to town. Because of a misunderstanding, their run in was cordial but brief, but a friend of Gray saw his reaction to her and wound up giving Tessa his number in case she ever wanted to call, which she contemplated doing but never did. That was until she had to, she was in deep trouble, injured in another country with no memory of how she got there or what happened in the last week, with no phone she only had two numbers memorized, one was not an option the other was Gray’s, so she called him and a good thing she did because she is in way over her head and she does not have a clue of how, why and who is after her. With Gray and his team on her side, they vow to protect her and find investigate what is going on. I loved the complexity and layers of the story, the plotting and world building is fantastic, as are the character growth and development. There is never a dull moment, and it has the perfect balance of drama, angst, action, mystery, twists and turns, thrilling suspense, heartfelt emotions and a wonderful second chance romance. Britney Sahin, thank you for this fantastic story and the wild, take me to the edge of my seat, ride. 

🎧📚🎧 And for the wonderful narration, Aiden Snow and Kit Swann are the perfect cast to bring these characters to life and did so with a complete understanding of who they were portraying, giving each a voice that suited that character, and were believable in every role they played. They set the perfect tone for the story, captured all the characters’ emotions and projected them into their performance, making you feel every single one. These versatile voice artists are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another fabulous listen.

Absolutely PHENOMENAL Listening Experience

What can I say? Brittney Sahin has once again delivered an absolutely incredible addition to the Falcon Falls Security Series.

Gray Chandler and Tessa Sloane are both broken. Gray literally and figuratively and Tessa emotionally. Thirteen years ago Gray was wounded in combat and Tessa found herself being his physical therapist. What neither expected or admitted was that the therapy was both physical and emotional. They found a connection, but when their sessions ended, they both were left with scars and wounds unseen.

A chance meeting has Tessa’s heart reawakening and Gray’s heart breaking. And once again, a door is closed. But a few days later, Tessa finds herself calling the one man she knows that can save her…Gray. She’s in a foreigner country with no memory of how she got there. One call, and Gray forgets everything but getting to Tessa.

Protecting Tessa is at the forefront of Gray’s agenda. But he’ll have to fight both of their pasts. And just maybe if he can save her, he can win her heart. He won’t walk away again.

Add in some old friends, family, and nemesis and you have another amazing story. Sahin delivers impeccable research, storylines, and set ups for future books that leave my anticipation levels at an all time high. And she gives us a tasty tease about the Falcon Falls Security Leader, Carter, that has me on the edge of my seat.

This narration duo was absolutely amazing. My first time listening to Aiden Snow and Kit Swann together and they more than met my expectations. They took me on a journey. I could feel the ups and downs, the fears, the hopes. Excellent audible experience.

Love this series, !!

The last two books have been hard to stop listening too. The whole series has been fantastic. I’m ready for the next one with Jack, falling in love or Carter..

Story:
First off, I loved this book! Second. I really loved this book, and thirdly, I freaking loved this book! It started with the dedication!

Gray, my god. This book hotty threw me for a loop. He was the best! THE best!!
“I promised you I wouldn’t walk away this time, which means not even the devil himself can rip me away from you. Got it." ~Gray.

Tessa, this girl was amazing. I loved her spunky, klutz word vomit self. She was perfect for Gray.
“I think we can all use someone in our lives to help bring out the best in us.” ~Tessa. I truly love that Tessa was a part of Gray's life when he was at his lowest! Knowing the connection started after his history with Sydney. Just a FYI, I am holding a grudge with Tessa's dad.

I honestly had tears in my eyes when it ended. Don't ask me why, I mean, they were happy tears. The book took me by surprise, in the best way possible. I do not know how Brittney can still manage to bring us these fun, amazing stories. The chemistry that is between these two characters was effortless. They just fit and flowed. All of her couples have flowed so well. For some reason, these two hit such a sweet spot for me. The angst in this book was top-notch. When I read a Brittney Sahin novel, I know I am in for a wild ride. The characters, the plot, and the level of details are nothing short of incredible. Her books make me so happy and giddy. The Taken One is no exception. I truly did love this book. I loved Gray and Tessa, the epilogue 🥺😍. Ugh .this series so far has been so fun, and I can tell it's going to continue being incredible. My words can not do this book justice.

~He had Tessa reminding him at every turn. He was a fighter, so he did his best to be one.


Narrators: Aiden Snow and Kitt Swann. these two are simple the best!!!

Loved this book!

She has done it again! Great story and perfect narration! Can’t wait for more of her books

Emotional second chance story

So great to see Gray finally get his happy ending. It certainly didn't take long for the story to draw me in. With lots of mystery, action, danger, and suspense this second chance romantic suspense takes you on an emotional journey as Gray and Tessa find their way back to each other. And of course the rest of the Falcon Falls team and some of our other favorites lend a hand. Amazing narration by Aiden Snow and Kit Swann take you down this Amazing road.
