Active Defense (Danger Never Sleeps, Bk.3)

She's used to life-or-death situations. She just didn't expect them to follow her home. When former field surgeon Heather Fontaine returns from a party to find that someone has broken into her house--and threatened her friends--she assumes it is the stalker who has been creeping her out. She hopes to find safety and peace of mind by leaving the city and hiding out in a small town. But trouble follows her even there. Luckily, a stalker isn't the only one observing Heather. Travis Walker has been secretly watching out for her for weeks. As owner of his own security agency, it's what he does. Together, Travis and Heather must figure out who wants her dead--and why--before it's too late. Praise for Acceptable Risk "Another can't-put-down suspense thriller."--More Than a Review "Buckle up, folks."--Interviews and Reviews "Readers will be kept on the edge of their seats."--<

Heather has seen a man watching her for weeks.  Then, one night, she comes home and find things in her home have been subtlety moved--and has the distinct feeling someone is still in the house.   She flees trying to find a place in a different part of the country where she can live anonymously, and, hopefully, safely.

Just when Heather is starting to relax in her new location, a car purposely runs her off the road.
Her friend, Travis, unknown to Heather, succeeded in finding her hideout.  He was carefully shadowing her, trying to keep her safe, when her car was shoved off the road.  Although his help afterward was the only thing that kept Heather from dying in her car, Travis is upset she was attacked while he was guarding her, and pledges it will never happen again.

But despite having her friends protection, she finds herself in more dangerous situations.  
When Heather served as a military doctor in Afghanistan, a young man with a bomb strapped to him, begged Heather for help.  But it exploded before she could, and was unable to save him during surgery.  Traumatized by the event, she left the military as soon as possible.  

Heather is at a loss to figure out why these bad things are happening to her, and who is behind it all.  Had something happened while in Afghanistan that has caused her life to be in danger? 

Told from a Christian viewpoint, this high action thriller will capture your attention while Heather runs for her life.  Fans of fast-moving stories will enjoy this 5-star book.

Revell Publishing has provided Tickmenot with a complimentary copy of, Active Defense, for the purpose of review.

Running for Her Life!

walmart.com

I have read many books by this author, and this one does not disappoint. It is the third book in the series with some recurring characters, but this can be read alone!
I cant imagine coming home from a war zone, and then having a stalker, now Heather doesnt even feel safe in her own country, never mind her home.
The character Heather is a strong woman who has pulled herself up from her bootstraps to become a surgeon, coming out of a rough background amid foster homes.
You will feel yourself ducking as bullets fly, and evil is lurking, along with a bit of tender romance. 
This one will not disappoint, and I would love to go on with the lives of these characters.
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Revell, and was not required to give a positive review.

Stalker

Eason had me from the very first page.  I didnt want to stop reading, and had no clue what could possibly happen next.  I had met Heather and Travis earlier in this series, but felt like I got to know them a lot better in this book.  I could understand Heathers need to be in control, and when someone put her friends in danger she did what she knows how to do: run and hide.  Little does she know her friends know her, and arent going to let her fight alone.  Travis has a special interest in her, and it doesnt hurt that he knows how to protect someone without being seen.  Will Travis find out whos after Heather before its too late?  I love reading a novel and having no clue who the villain could be.  Eason had me guessing and took me by complete surprise.  I cant wait to see what she writes next!  I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys romantic suspense.  I loved seeing the deep friendships the group shared, and that their love for each other overcame many obstacles.  I received a copy of this book from Revell Publishing and was in no way forced to post a review.  All opinions expressed are my own.

So Good!

In Active Defense, Heather Fontaine has served her country, saved lives and done her duty in Afghanistan hospitals and now its time for her to come home and focus on healing herself. 

**I received this book as part of a promotion. 

But the nightmares and memories have not gone away as every day she deals with the trauma of all she experienced  especially the last patient she lost in the battlefield hospital.

Added to that is the fact that Heather knows that she is being watched. The final straw is when she realizes someone has been in her home and is now targeting her friends as well. Heather goes into hiding and her friends go into action.

I have read several books by Linette Eason and she never lets me down. I know I can count on a book full of suspense and intrigue with characters that are well developed and a story that is worth reading.

Intriguing, Full of Suspense - Another Solid Eason

Active Defense, by Lynette Eason, is the third in the Danger Never Sleeps series but, whilst I loved the previous two, it works as a standalone novel too. Our leading lady is a military doctor home after a traumatic incident. Quickly she realises shes attracted a stalker and, to protect her friends, she disappears to a safe location. Our leading man and friend to Heather, Travis, uses his resources in private security as well as his friendships with law enforcement to find and protect Heather.

Soon, the two find themselves fighting against more than a one man stalker and trying to ascertain what the motive behind it all is. As in every Lynette Eason, this is a fast-paced action-orientated story but I love the heart she built into Heather, she has created a woman who is easy to relate to and caring toward all those who the stumble across in their journey.

Backed by Travis team, their investigation takes many unexpected and interesting turns before its satisfying ending! Whilst I pieced some of it together, as I love to do, I didnt get all of it! I so enjoyed this adventure and highly recommend it! Its a five out of five on the enJOYment scale!

Great twists

Third in the Danger Never Sleeps series, Active Defense is true to its title, and is an exciting read the whole way through.  The group of friends from previous books is included and needed for their various skill sets, but this novel definitely stands on its own.

Dr. Heather Fontaine was used to danger, having served at a military field hospital in Afghanistan.  But when danger follows her home, she knows it is time to flee.

Travis Walker makes himself the lead in finding Heather and protecting her as the team tries to figure out who is after Heather and why.  Their relationship develops slowly into more than friends.

This book is action-packed and gripping in its page-turning appeal.  Readers of suspense will definitely want to pick this one up!

I received a copy of this book from the publisher, Revell, for review purposes.  The thoughts expressed here are my own.

Exciting Suspense!

When I first picked this book to read, I didn't realize it was book 3 in a series. My first thought, oh great. Immediately I had a preconceived notion that I would be lost. Usually books in the middle of a series pulls details from the previous one to tie it together. Plus, the cover of the book had me questioning whether or not  it was in this century or WWII location set. 

The story starts off in Afghanistan, in our current time line. I was happy, but then I discovered that I couldn't put the book down. It was good. It was a story that started off strong and then carried you along with the ups and down, daring you to stop. And stop I did and then I misplaced the book. Right at a good section. 

The story has pieces and layers as you are trying to tie one piece to another. It keeps you captivated. Yes, I found the book and was able to figure out (near the end) the who done it part.

This is the first time for me to read Lynette Eason and I'm now looking forward to reading the first two books in this series. Actually, I'm equally curious about the fourth book, thanks to the sample chapters in the back of the book. Now I have to wait for it? ACK!

I did receive this book from Revell Publishing, however my review and thoughts on the book are completely my own.

Great, action packed book

I am a longtime fan of Lynette Eason. Her stories keep getting better and better. Active Defense is the third in the series Danger Never Sleeps. I am so glad there will be a fourth book. 
This was thrilling, non-stop action and had twists and turns that I was not expecting. Good writing keeps you on your toes and I couldnt wait to see what happened next. I could not believe who the bad guy was! 
The heroine, Heather is flawed and haunted by her time as a doctor in a war zone. She also has trust issues from her harsh upbringing. Travis is one of a group of her friends who comes to her aid in trying to figure out who is following her and wants to do her harm. Travis is a staunch Christian and a solid, good guy. The secondary characters filled out the story in a credible way. I liked the makeup of the ensemble of friends and enjoyed seeing how they were there for each other. A nice touch was showing the empathy between Heather and troubled teen, Ryker and how Travis helped him. 
Through the excitement, the characters faith was evident. A theme was: With God anything is possible to overcome. 
*A complimentary copy of this book was provided by Revell through Interviews and Reviews. I was not required to give a favorable review. All opinions are my own.

Thrilling story

Good plot, less well written. I generally like Lynette Easons books, but this one less so. The story begins in Afghanistan when heather tries to save the life of a young bomber. He dies but his story does not die.

Heather, back in America, begins to be followed by a stalker. And her life begins to be threatened with home invasions, car wrecks, and kidnappings. It would take the combined work of Heather and her friends to discover the truth behind it all. In the process Heather will need to learn to trust and depend on others. She is not on her own, but it will take effort to overcome her past.

Sadly, the first  of the book are a bit slow-going; the last third picks up speed and becomes a more satisfying read. Was the book worth my time - yes, but it took a while to get there. The book barely gets 4-stars.

Christian Suspense in South Carolina

This was a solid suspense read from Lynette Eason. After meeting Heather and Travis in the earlier books in this series, getting their story was super fun. The mystery was very good and the excitement level of the book kept a great pace and was a page turner. Heather and Travis's growing relationship was easy and believable and didn't move too fast which I appreciated. I really liked the addition of Ryker, he was a fun character that I'd like to see more of. This was a quick, easy and an enjoyable read. Looking forward to book 4 in the series later this year.

I received this book from the publisher and was not required to post a positive review. All thoughts are my own.

Exciting Read!
