Winter Hawk: A Raptor Holiday

Evidence, Book 9

De: Rachel Grant

Narrado por: Nicol Zanzarella

Raptor operative Nate Sifuentes isn’t thrilled to find himself back on the job on the first day of his winter vacation, but he can’t say no when his brother asks a favor. At least he’ll earn an easy Christmas bonus - after all, driving a fired military contractor home after she’s been escorted off base by military police can’t be that hard.

In a matter of minutes, Leah Ellis has lost everything, and now she’s stranded in the nation’s capital on the first night of Hanukkah without money, phone, or bed. All she has is a mysterious driver who might be after her technical knowledge of the US military’s drone operations.

The former Green Beret’s protective instincts - and skills - kick in when he discovers the alluring AI engineer is being hunted. On the run, they escape the winter cold by generating their own heat, but will they find answers in time to stop a terror attack on Christmas Day?

Technology, danger, and unexpected love

I enjoyed this holiday novella with a side of danger and mystery. The story had a wonderful mix of sweet, spicy, and real life issues. Leah is a programmer for military drones working as a civilian contractor on a military base. She is unexpectedly fired by her employer and escorted out of the building and off the base. She has no wallet, no money and no apartment and it’s the first night of Hanukkah. Nate is a Raptor operative who comes to pick up Leah as a favor to his brother who owns a car service company. But a simple pick up and drop off becomes much more when it appears someone is hunting Leah. To get to their HEA, they’ll have to step a step ahead of the bad guys while trying to figure out what is going on. Despite being short, the story was well written and included engaging dialogue, three dimensional characters, and a captivating storyline. I am excited to read more in this series.

Nicol Zanzarella did a wonderful job narrating the stories and characters into life with enough change of inflection, tone and cadence to voice multiple characters quite convincingly.
