He’s the last client she wants to protect…
Elite Guardians bodyguard/former sniper CHRISTINA SHERMAN has protected uncooperative clients before—but this time, well her client is bossy, headstrong and occasionally eats off the floor. Yes, he’s a highly trained military working dog, but certainly her skills could be put to better use, right?
Not according to former Special Forces Air Commando GREY PARKER. He needs her help to protect his dog while he undergoes an experimental surgery that could restore his ability to walk. He just needs someone to keep his canine partner safe. Most of all, Grey wants back on his feet so he can track down a deranged scientist known as The Scavenger who unleashed a nerve agent that left Grey sidelined in a wheelchair.
When an attempt is made on Grey’s life, and dead bodies begin piling up—with evidence the same toxin is responsible—suddenly Christina is tasked with keeping both dog and soldier alive…and with them, the secrets that could stop a terrorist attack.
But this time, even Christina might be in over her head.

My Review
Driving Force
by Lynette Eason & Kate Angelo
Book 1 in the Elite Guardians Collection
Rating: 4.5/5
“God was her rock, the one who trained her hands for war and her fingers for battle. She refused to let her training fail her now.”
As a huge fan of Lynette Eason, I was super excited to get my hands on an ARC for the new book in her Elite Guardians Collection. Newcomer Kate Angelo does an amazing job of expanding on Eason’s Elite Guardians series and bringing her own voice to a fantastic series with strong female leads. And you can definitely read this as a standalone novel if you haven’t read the Elite Guardians series yet.
First, the book cover is great and quite eye-catching. The heroine is front and center and looks incredibly capable.
Second, the story dives in right away. This story is fast-paced, adrenaline-filled and full of suspense. I was completely hooked from the first chapter.
Third, the main characters are strong yet relatable. Christina has her own ghosts but she does her job well and seems to do it better than others. She is guarded at first but learns to trust. Grey suffers from PTSD and doubts his abilities after becoming wheelchair-bound. I loved how the authors highlighted a hero with a disability and they were not afraid to deal with some of his demons.
Fourth, Boss is amazing, loyal, intelligent, and so adorable. That is all. 😉
Fifth, I always enjoy when an author can incorporate faith aspects into their writing in a non-forced way. The message is very applicable and authentic.
Highly recommend if you enjoy Christian romantic suspense that hooks you from the start and keeps you guessing till the end!
My thanks to the author and publisher for providing me with an ARC of the book. All opinions expressed here are entirely my own. No positive review was expected and no compensation received.
