My Review:

Trail of Threats by Jessica Patch is part of the Mountain Country K-9 Unit series, but can easily be read independently.

Someone was watching.

One thing I love about the Love Inspired Suspense line is that you immediately jump into the action. Sadie is in her food truck when she feels she is being watched. As she is cleaning up to leave, she hears footsteps approaching. Just as the footsteps are at the other side of her truck, a car pulls up. 

Enter Officer Rocco Manelli. It is clear from the beginning that Rocco and Sadie have known each other for a long time and have a friendly relationship. Sadie is all sass, and Rocco is protective and mischievous. 

Read for: 

🦮single mom

🦮diabetic son with a trained dog

🦮officer and his K-9

🦮nonstop action

🦮Food truck

🦮lots of red herrings 

Trail of Threats is a quick read, with a solid suspense line and a budding romance.

★★★/5
