Warrior

Contemporary Christian Romantic Suspense (Spiritual Warfare Series)

By: Linda K. Rodante

Narrated by: Colleen Weaver

Kati Walsh battles in her kickboxing class, but she’ll have to learn spiritual warfare when both a new pastor and a gang leader take an interest in her.

Kickboxer Kati Walsh's one outreach is to her kickboxing friends at the gym, but she’s praying God will stir her heart again. She’s not sure, though, that the new assistant pastor and his friend Reece Jernigan are what she prayed for - because Assistant Pastor Josh Corbin intends to win the hearts of the gangs in the north side neighborhood.

When Josh plans a prayer walk in the area, both the congregation and the police are wary, but Josh insists that prayer works. He believes in spiritual warfare - prayer, praise, and the Word of God. Reece, on the other hand, has been on the streets before, and his weapon of choice is a 9mm Glock. Two close friends with differing perspectives and both with an eye on Kati.

And they’re not the only ones. The gang leader has taken an unexpected interest in Kati, too.

Enjoyed this book

I found the book to be quite enjoyable. The narrator did a great job preforming.

Real Life

I listened to the audiobook and the narrator done a fantastic job. This book was real life. If you want to be touch by a story listen/read this one. There are more spiritual aspects in this book than most. So if you are scared of scriptures you best pass on this book. You better get your tissues ready for a good cry too. I love a book that gets where people actually live. There is danger, an element of mystery and romance. The romance was not overpowering to me. This would be a wonderful movie if they wouldn’t take out parts of it or change it.
I was given a complimentary copy of the audiobook by the author but was not required to write a positive review. All opinions are my own.

full of excitement

Warrior

This is a clean romance about a young msn that was rescued from a gang (with s friends help), becomes dependent on him but needs to find his worth through Christ when his friend’s life is taken trying to protect a gang member’s life.

Interesting storyline

This book was an absolutely thrilling read from start to finish. The pacing kept me hooked, with each chapter offering new twists and moments of intense suspense. What stood out most to me was how "clean" the story was — free from unnecessary vulgarity or graphic content, making it refreshing and accessible to a wide audience without losing any of its edge or emotional depth.

Another powerful element was the theme of spiritual warfare woven throughout the narrative. It wasn’t just a backdrop — it felt real, urgent, and deeply meaningful. The author portrayed the unseen battles between light and darkness with vivid clarity, making the spiritual stakes feel just as high as the physical ones.

Overall, the book delivered an exciting, thought-provoking experience that left me both entertained and spiritually encouraged. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys thrilling stories with a strong message of hope and resilience.
