Publisher's summary

They’d been through it all and emerged victorious. Now they stood on the very brink of a whole new life bursting with possibilities and renewed hope for the future. Colin will take the bar exam and begin his promising career as an assistant commonwealth attorney for the city of Charlottesville. Joshua receives his second PhD and adds forensic psychologist to his list of achievements. What could possibly go wrong?

And then:

Three students are abducted from the University of Virginia campus. All three are recovered alive but have been sexually assaulted and brutally beaten. From his new position as assistant commonwealth attorney, Colin partners with both campus and city police in a combined task force determined to solve these horrific crimes and put the perpetrator behind bars. But can they succeed before the "campus abductor" strikes again?

The abusive and volatile husband of one of Joshua’s patients threatens his life. Suddenly Joshua is under siege as he is stalked both at work and at home by an unstable assailant.

Entangled in both these life-threatening situations, Colin struggles to protect both the university he loves and the man he adores. But...

“Oh God, Josh, my sweet love, if anything’s happened to you....” His voice trailed off, unable to voice the unthinkable.

“NO!" Joshua’s mind shrieked. "I can’t give up! I won’t give up! Colin will come! He’ll come!”

Warning: This novel discusses sensitive material that may be distressing to some listeners. Relevant Law explores themes of abduction, physical violence, and non-graphic sexual assault.

Exactly what you should expect

If you're familiar with this authors books and these characters specifically then this should come as no surprise to you. The quality of the writing and narration are amazing as always and pair together beautifully. Josh is the housewife and work mom everyone wants to married to. just an overall sweet guy who is very educated and loves that he gets to make a home with his husband. Colin is like Diminick Carisi from law and order SVU. He's funny, charming, good at what he does, but hard working, protective, determined to get justice, and cares about his people and his community. This book definitely has a lot of really engaging intimate scenes but everything in the book is more sensual, romantic, and even poetic at times. Colin's voice in makes you melt and Joshua's is smooth and sweet. But none of that sound be a surprise. What's really great about this book is the way the plot was laid out and we got to see Josh struggle for a bit. I think we are used to seeing Colin struggle and make mistakes and Josh trying to be the adult and deal with it but now the situation is reversed. We get to see how their personalities change when the script is flipped like this. Colin is still stubborn but protective in stead of overly independent. And Josh is lashing out in frustration for once because of his own problems in stead of taking on everyone else's issues with a soft touch, even if he's still trying to apply logic to all these situations. it's interesting to see and really refreshing. I love that this is another great book in the series that stressed the important of mental health issues and appropriate help and care as well as realistic martial and personal issues. And again, the story line was great. It built slowly but organically and it had moments where I was on the edge of my seat without having to be anxious for the entire book. I really recommend this book and this author to anyone and everyone interested in romance novels. These two are my #relationshipgoals This story absolutely did take my emotions in a ride though so be prepared.

Enjoyable

This is Fearless Heart book 2
You really should read the first as this is the same couple moving forward and stuff from the previous book is mentioned. However saying that… I did listen out of order and quite liked the characters and story.
I love established couples and Josh and
Colin were so sweet and in love.
There are some twists and the story is exciting.

The narration is pretty good and I enjoyed listening.

Amazing - brilliant narration

Both the author and the narrator were new to me. I became curious because of the blurb, which sounded totally interesting to me.
Janice Jarrell has a great writing style and it didn't take long for me to find myself in Colin and Josh's world. I haven't read volume one and I didn't feel like I was missing any essential information from volume one while listening to "Relevant Law".
On the contrary, Colin and Josh's storyline intrigued me enough to want more of them and that's why I'll be listening to volume one.
I enjoyed the story immensely, I felt the deep love they have for each other with every word. The everyday life of the two was wonderfully described. Colin can't get out of his skin and is a bit overprotective at times, but I found that very endearing.
The author drew the characters deeply and the story was very emotional, but also exciting and totally entertaining.

This was also contributed to Walker Williams, who did an excellent job. He gave the characters different voices and I always knew who was speaking. He also did an absolutely great job of portraying the emotions - and there were a lot of them. Wow, I was blown away! He made a great story even better with his brilliant narration. And unfortunately, the 10 hours of audiobook were over way too quickly. I was captivated from the beginning and listened to the audiobook in just two days.

Highly recommended!

Hang on because this one is not a slow, sweet romance. It will take you on a wild ride, and I'm still trying to recover.

STORY: 5 stars

Holy crap!! Mind trip. Emotional. Gets under you skin. Relevant Law takes everything you have been experiencing in this series by Janice Jarrell and turns it on its head. You go deeper, darker, and have to search for the light at the end of the tunnel. It's there, but you have to keep turning the pages...and trust me, you want to. Josh and Colin's story is far from over, and this book is mind blowing! It's a must read. I don't want to say too much and give everything away, but be prepared for suspense and emotion on the high end of the scale.

NARRATION: 5 STARS

Walker Williams once again delivers a great performance and brings this story to life, making it jump out of your speakers and off the the pages. I absolutely loved this one, and as emotional and everything that this one is, Walker did a great job with it all.

OVERALL: 5 STARS

This one is a great addition to this powerful series. It is a must read/must listen. 5 stars and I suggest you one click today!

Intense

This is an intense story. It is a time when Colin has moved into his attorney career. He and Josh are settling into daily life when there is a problem on campus. Someone is kidnapping and killing students. At the same time Josh is having trouble handling an abused client. Colin has stepped in to try and protect Josh when he is threatened by the client’s husband. At the same time Colin has warned Josh to be careful. Colin is so concerned he even drives Josh to work. Josh starts feeling Colin is over protective and goes about his lifestyle. This is where the intense, emotional part takes hold. The author does a wonderful job of bringing the situation for these two into such reality I could feel the emotions going on. The story also shines on the relationship between these two guys and their friends. This is a very powerful, emotional story. I can’t imagine where the author will take these characters next. I have to give credit to Walker Williams. The narration brought much more reality to the story. His ability to give each character individuality and feeling make the book irresistible.

Love & Faith

This was another great book that follows Colin & Joshua Campbell-Abrams. These two have endured some serious ups and downs throughout this series and the previous Revolutionary Heart series. This book continues that and had me caught up in its story far too late trying to finish it. Add in the great narrating and I just could not wait to finish it.

I received an ARC and this is my unbiased opinion

Stunning!!

Their story is angsty, raw and gripping! Colin is now working as a lawyer for the Commonwealth of Virginia and Josh has gotten a second PhD. When Josh is threatened, Colin will go to any means to protect his love. This was a fantastic emotional ride! Walker Williams does a fantastic job with the narration, well done!! Overall this is a seriously fantastic audio.

Colin and Josh

Great Couple!! Book two and the story continues.
Colin passes the Bar and Josh is working in a Clinic when, ALL hell breaks loose. Nightmares do come true. this is a Fast paced story that holds your attention throughout.
Its a nail biter for sure. Again in this book plenty of trouble and turmoil. This couple sure gets tested with unexpected situations. I laughed out loud and cried real tears. Hold on to your seat, for sure!!
Great writing by Janice Jarrell and the narration by Walker Williams was outstanding. he really brought this book and these men to life. David, Nate, Trent and Jeff.
definitely, a bunch of guys I will look for more books about. Well worth the credit and your time to listen.

Amazing!

Story: Every adventure with Colin and Josh is a veritable emotional rollercoaster! I love the couple Janice Jarrell created and it never gets old to see what she has in store for them!
This new installment has a very well written suspense thread woven into the story and I loved the change of pace! The characters never stop amazing me with their development and all the intricately constructed pieces of their personalities. It’s yet another great book and by far my favorite series following the same couple!
Narration: Brilliant performance as always. There are not enough words to express how ideal Walker Williams is for these books.
