She’s bringing his son home

A missing little boy triggers San Diego K-9 officer Shannon Clemens and her canine search-and-rescue partner into instant action. For the rookie cop haunted by a childhood tragedy, bringing Sawyer Evans’s son safely home is more than a job. It’s a mission she can’t fail… But forging a friendship with the father is a tactical error that could compromise her first solo assignment. Yet the deepening bond between them is almost impossible to resist…

My Review

I’ve read all of the books in this series except for the first. I’ve loved them all, and this one is no exception! Books involving animals are always so heartwarming. I really enjoy the K-9 series because of the special bond an officer has with his or her dog. In this case, Shannon Clemens is a search-and-rescue officer, and she gets called into a case for a missing little boy. Shannon is ready for action, but the case hits close to home. She lost someone close to her when she was younger, and that gives her a sense of desperation to find this boy before it is too late.

The officers from previous books show up, but you don’t need to read them first. They help Shannon work through her emotions concerning the missing child’s father. I love how compassionate the characters in the book are. They’re far from perfect, but they always are thinking of what others are going through.

This romantic suspense book moves very quickly, and you’ll want to keep reading to find out what happens! There are some great twists and turns that will keep you guessing. I loved the ending, and you will too! Add Home to Stay to your must-read pile of books!
