Search and Rescue, Book 2

De: Katie Ruggle

Narrado por: Rachel Dulude

As a motorcycle club member and firefighter, Ian Walsh is used to riding the line between the good guys and the bad. He may owe the club his life, but his heart rests with his fire station brothers - and with the girl he's loved since they were kids, Rory Sorenson. Ian would do anything for Rory. He'd die for her. Kill for her. Defend her to his last breath - and he may just have to. Every con in the Rockies knows Rory is the go-to girl for less-than-legal firearms, and for the past few years she's managed to keep the peace between dangerous factions by remaining strictly neutral. But when she defends herself against a brutal attack, Rory finds herself catapulted into the center of a gang war, with only Ian standing between her and a threat greater than either of them could have imagined.

Contains mature themes.

Written very well!! Story was well told on audible! It followed the previous book well! Give it 5 stars!

Great story line

Great story. There is only thing that annoyed me and that is the authors propensity to blow things up in her stories. I just finished one of her series where I’m sure there’s only two buildings left in the whole town. And she blew stuff up in the story too, I could do without the bombs all the time.

Awesome book!

This is Ian and Rory's story. It has a wonderful small town flavor with warm, interesting, and fun characters. The suspense and excitement are totally entertaining and enjoyable. The narration is very good!

Great read!

I really enjoyed this one! It picks up with Ian Walsh, the firefighter who is split between the firefighter/search and rescue world and the MC. He also is dealing with some suspicion towards him about the headless body found int he first book in the series. Rory is his best friend, though they both have secrets. Things start escalating when someone/intruders are trying to break into Rory's compound at night. She owns and operates a gun shop and range on property she inherited from her parents and is known to the cons as the place to get not so legal guns for the last few years. Rory had been trained by her prepper parents from a very young age and so is dealing with the threat and trying to figure out who and what. Ian is not liking it and wants to protect her and stay with her which is causing their relationship to start shifting from best friends into more as it gets harder for them to hide the feelings they have. The attempted break ins continue to escalate as the nights go on and secrets start coming out. I enjoyed watching Ian and Rory start opening up to each other and navigating the changes in their relationship amidst everything else that is going on around them. This story did a good job of blending everything together and flowing smoothly throughout. It was well written and had plenty of action and intrigue. I loved getting to know the other characters better and seeing how things are coming along with the headless body case as well. I'm excited for the next book in the series and to see where things go now.
The narrator did a good job with the story and characters and bringing them to life.

have to say it again

4-4.5 stars

This was a really good story. I liked Ian in previous stories so I was happy to see his book come up. It was enjoyable while being interesting and engaging.

Rory is an unusual woman. She was born to parents that were disillusioned with the world and became preppers, getting ready for the time when society goes to hell. Rory lost her parents 3 years ago and she took over the family's gun shop. Unfortunately, after being home schooled and conditioned since childhood to keep to herself, Rory doesn't socialize much.

Ian is a fireman and also a member of a motorcycle club that isn't necessarily on the right side of the law. Ian got a lot out of the club when he was younger and has always felt he owed them. However, he also has the need to help people and his brothers in the club saw his job choice as being a slap in the face. Things have been tense for a while and Ian's been trying to straddle the line between his two lives.

Ian and Rory met for the first time when they were 12 years old. Rory's parents tried to be self-sufficient and didn't buy much in the store but Rory got to go along on a rare trip and met Ian. Ian bought Rory a cupcake and started her love for rarely attained sugary treats. They saw each other over the years but never got too close. When Ian comes around and hears that Rory has been having someone lurking around the gun store at night and setting off the alarm, Ian becomes very protective.

Rory is apprehensive because she's had a crush on Ian since he bought her the cupcake but never thought he's want her in return. Ian had basically the same thoughts about her so when he realizes that Rory is actually attracted to him, he makes it his mission to win her. Rory holds back of course and denies the blooming relationship with Ian when everyone in town is talking about it but no one truly believes her protestations. There is trouble to deal with, part of it was already coming but part of it got exacerbated by issues that take place in this story. Allegiances are tested and some fall apart while others stand strong. Ian and Rory get through a lot danger and a good amount of drama, coming out of it doing well and heading towards and HEA together.

This was a really enjoyable story. I liked Rory as the heroine. She grew up being trained to be ready to handle anything...except human interaction. I really liked seeing her get her bearings, making friends as well as getting together with Ian. Ian was a great hero and I liked how he did what was needed to protect those he cares about. Overall, this was a really good story that kept me engaged through to the end so I'd recommend it. :D

Flaming Good Book!

Lots of action and suspense! I am really enjoying this series of books and this authors writing style. I really love the humor she puts into her books, too. This was a great read. Thanks!
