The
Elite Guardians, bodyguards led by Olivia Edwards, are always watching over
their client, radio personality, Wade Savage. Unfortunately, Wade’s stalker is
equally vigilant in watching his every move. As the stalker begins to expand
his, or is it her, focus to include Wade’s young daughter, Amy, and one of his
bodyguards is severely injured in an attack outside the radio station, Olivia
is forced to call in back up from local law enforcement. Even with the extra
resources, much of Olivia’s time is spent with Wade, and the growing attraction
is undeniable. Will the attraction prove too much of a distraction, and will
that lead to deadly consequences? After all, Wade has done something to make
the stalker very angry.
When reviews are posted on web sites, the
reviewer is often asked to give a star rating of the book or product. When
considering the number of stars I consider how well the item being reviewed met
my expectations and how pleased I was with it. Well, if I were to give Always Watching a star rating, and I was
comparing it to how other mysteries I’ve read over the last few years met my
expectations and provided reading pleasure, I would give it four stars.
However, if I were to compare it with the last two Lynette Eason books I’d read
from her Hidden Identity series, I would probably give it three stars. As
mysteries in general go, Always Watching
is a great read, but for my reading pleasure it was less engaging than Nowhere to Turn and No One to Trust. I found the characters to be less endearing and
the events less realistic. Am I saying that I wouldn’t recommend this book,
absolutely not. It simply is not my favorite Lynette Eason book. Will I read
the next book in this series, certainly; after all it’s a Lynette Eason book.
I thank Revell Publishers and Christian Fiction Blog Alliance for
providing Always Watching for my honest review. I did not receive any monetary
compensation for a favorable review and the opinions expressed here are
strictly my own.
