5 Stars
To say Freya pulled me in from the very beginning would be an understatement, I found myself sitting up in the middle of the night reading, then claiming a quiet day and plunked in my chair until I finished Joe & Ollie's story.
Ollie had my praise with a you go girl very quickly. She is a single mom that has spent the past almost 18 years trying to do best for her daughter. All of this while learning to no let her disability slow her down. Ollie is a woman full of strength & courage, doing her best to show Trinny that she too can do anything she sets her mind to. Making a living they can both be proud of. Watching Trinny take charge of her new job intent to get the job done, it is clear that she has instilled good values in her daughter. Ollie loves hard but is skittish to put herself out there recognizing it affects more than her.
Joe and his boys are slowly adjusting to their move to a new town. Joe has taken on the task of Chief of Police and is doing the hard balance of work and raising his children. With a solid babysitter to help with the boys after school he seems to be doing OK so far. Mason and Ryder are adjusting well but lets face it the loss of a parent is not easy to get used to. Everyone deals with loss and grief differently. He is a loving father that makes time for his children. When Joe crosses paths with Ollie she brings to the table some new feelings that he hasn't had in a very long time. It is an adjustment to get his heart and mind on the same page.
True to her fashion of romantic suspense Freya gives a great mix in the story. A very well planned plot with enough suspense to keep you looking for answers while drawing you into the lives of her wonderful characters. She does a wonderful job of mixing the children into the mix and reminding us that it takes a bit more to sort through when they are involved but it is more than worth the risk in the end. Family weather they are blood or not is still family and we are usually most happy when we can count on our family.
I am loving the On Call series and the mix of characters. It was also fun treat that she brought us back a few characters of the past. Looking forward to the next adventure.
