Alice Walker and her six-year-old son are on the run. She knows they need to keep a low profile as it’s only a matter of time before her past catches up with her. When her car breaks down in the middle of a snowstorm, she and Dillon have no alternative but to hide in a stranger’s garage. It’s either that or freeze to death. Will this stranger be her saving grace or has she put herself and her son in further danger? After reflecting on his life, Callum Summer has concluded that he’s ready to settle down and start a family. However, he needs to find a woman first. Not that he’s short of female attention, but the right one hasn’t come along yet. When he finds a young woman and her son hiding in his garage, he knows she’s the one. His dog Storm knows it too. Can he commit to Alice and Dillon? Be the one to put them first above all? He’ll try. He knows Alice hasn’t had an easy life. He also knows she’s hiding something but is reluctant to tell him. Will she come clean before her past threatens the life she’s come to love? Saving Them is Book 2 in The Summer Knights Series, which can be read as a standalone or part of the series.
It's snowing, there's a power cut and younger brother Connor needs a lift. It's lucky that Callum Summer is an even-tempered man, given that he has to open the electric garage doors manually to drive through the snow to collect his feckless younger brother - and of course he leaves the garage door open, because it'd be a hassle to close it.
Cue orphan of the storm Alice, and her young son Dillon, seeking shelter from the weather on account of their car having broken down. The garage means a roof over their heads, the ageing camper van inside it a place to rest their aching--and bruised, in Alice's case--skin and bones.
When Callum discovers his uninvited guests, his generous and gentlemanly nature kicks in, and soon he's offering them more solid shelter. Relationships are formed, not the least between Dillon and Storm, Callum's German Shepherd--but the attraction between Alice and Callum is of a bit more than the faithful friend variety. It's clear that the mother and child are escaping from something, and under Callum's gentle influence she begins to open up---but she's holding back something which could put her new-found protector in danger.
Once again author Tracey Gerrard provides a knight in shining armour to rescue the abused damsel in distress and her child - so that's Kane and Callum sorted. There are still three of the brothers waiting in line, however, and I note that brother Mason has his eye on a waitress named Kat. Could they be about to serve up the next slice of the love lives of the Summer brothers? And after that, there's still Connor and Henry ...
If you have read the first book in the series then this sequel will take you down a different path and concentrate on another of the Summer brothers, Callum and the beautiful Alice who quite literally suddenly appears in his life. On one wintery stormy night Alice with her 6 year old son Dillon escape abuse. What they actually escape from isn’t made clear until later on in the book but from bruises on Alice’s face and body it is not hard to imagine what she is escaping from. However in the middle of a blizzard Alice’s car breaks down and in freezing cold temperatures Alice and Dillon have to trudge through heavy snow to get to safety. Just when she loses hope she finds an open garage and shelters for the night. However the next day it is discovered the garage belongs to Callum and as soon as he sees her he is immediately besotted. Noticing the state she and her son are in, Callum invites the pair to stay in his home and although reluctant and wary at first she agrees. Gradually Alice’s wall crumbles and her and Callum begin to develop feelings for each other. But then Alice’s past comes back to haunt her and when Callum finds out what she did she fears he may not want her. As with the previous book in the series this is a great little thriller romance that fans of both genres will love. I think I said with the previous book that it would do well as a movie with Cavill and Sweeney in the roles of Kane and Meadow. I reckon the same would apply for this book but with maybe David Corenswet as Callum and Alexandra Daddario as Alice.
I’ve read several books by this author and have enjoyed them all. This one, the second in The Summer Knights series, is no exception, and I loved it. Alice Walker and her young son are on the run, and they seek refuge in a stranger’s garage in a snowstorm. The garage belongs to Callum Summer, and he and his dog, Storm, are attracted to Alice from the beginning. However, Alice doesn’t know if she can trust this man, and he, too, has reservations as he suspects his surprise guest is hiding something. This is a lovely story with interesting characters, and I strongly recommend it.
Saving Them is the second book in the Summer Knights series and it revolves around Callum Summer. A heavy snowfall sees Alice and her young son, who are on the run, having to take shelter in an open garage after her car breaks down. Callum’s ex-police dog, Storm, knows there is someone hiding and when Callum goes to investigate, he finds Alice and decides to help her. The attraction between Callum and Alice is so real but she’s a stranger with a possibly dodgy past and she’s worried it might catch up with her. This is an excellent second book in the series and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. It's one you won’t want to put down until the last page.
This isn’t the first book I’ve read of the excellent Tracey Gerrard , and I have to say it did not disappoint. I need to admit I haven’t read this series in order, however this one concentrated on one brother of 5. It was easy to read and I picked up the story as if it were a stand-alone. I think I’m going to have to go back and read book 1, because I want to know more. The story was well written, captivating and it flowed with a skill the author should be proud of. A difficult situation in the heart of winter, develops marvellously into an emotional love story, full of secrets, love and laughter. Loved it.
I enjoyed this book as much as I enjoyed the first in the Summer Knights series. Alice is on the road with her son and breaks down during a heavy snow storm. Cold and scared, she seeks shelter in a camper van stored inside an open garage. A garage that belongs to Callum Summer. I loved this sweet romance, and read it quickly, not wanting to put it down. I am thoroughly enjoying this series and am looking forward to Mason and Kats story next Recommended if you like a sweet clean romance, with well rounded and developed characters with heart and stories of their own.
Saving Them, Book 2 in the Summer Knights Series by Tracey Gerrard, is another winner by this talented author. I previously read Protecting Her, Book 1 in the series, and enjoyed it immensely, and this second in the series is even more binge-worthy. If you’ve not read the first in the series, fear not, it reads beautifully as a standalone with brief references to what happened to the characters in the first book to adequately orient you. When Alice Walker and her six-year-old son camp out in the garage of Callum Summer to protect them from a raging snowstorm, Callum discovers them the next morning and attempts to take them under his protective wing. Alice, a victim of abuse, is wary of his motives, but Callum is a true gentleman and a kind soul. Eventually, the two learn to trust each other and a beautiful romance ensues. This story has its tragic moments and there are many suspenseful moments and bad guys to thrill and chill, but the story also weaves a beautiful theme of love, respect, redemption, and family values throughout. This is a love story you won’t want to miss out on, and I can’t wait to see what thrills author Tracey Gerrad has in store for us in Keeping Kat, Book 3 in the series. Luckily, Book 3 is already available. I highly recommend this author and the Summer Knights Series for a most entertaining read.
I LOVED Let Me, so you can imagine my delight at discovering the return of Tracey Gerrard’s signature blend of heart-pounding tension and heartfelt love in Saving Them. Running for their lives, Alice Walker and her six-year-old son, Dillon, seek refuge in a stranger’s garage. Enter Callum Summer, a man who has everything except the family he longs for. That changes when his dog, Storm, discovers them. The attraction between Callum and Alice sizzles from the get-go, but Alice’s secrets threaten their relationship, and Callum must decide how far he will go to protect them. Gerrard’s tale of survival, trust, and the healing power of love delivers heartwarming moments and gripping suspense. Callum is my kind of hero - strong, protective, yet patient and kind. Alice is resilient, and Dillon steals every scene he’s in. Add Storm, the ever-loyal canine protector, and you feel like you’re among family. I devoured this delicious book in one sitting. If you love romantic suspense with deep emotional stakes, you will, too! Saving Them has made me hungry for more from this fabulous author!
Tracey Gerrard has pulled it out of the bag again! This is the second book in the summer Knights series which follows the fortunes of the extremely handsome Knight brothers. This book focuses on Callum Knight who comes to the rescue of Alice and her young son who are fleeing for their lives. It’s a beautifully written romance with all the feel good factors. I read this in one sitting and souls highly recommend it to anyone who is a fan of romance!
This sequel to book one of the Summer series begins when Alice and her 6-year-old son, escaping abuse, leave on a snowy night and, after breaking down, find themselves sheltering in a garage belonging to Callum. There is an attraction there, but given her history, can she trust this man? A lovely, interesting storyline leads us along as secrets are uncovered. Highly recommended. I have not read book one as of yet, but I will do so shortly.
Alice and her son escape abuse, no longer able to take it anymore, Alice takes to the road. But It’s snowing, and then Alice’s car breaks down. She struggles through the snow with son looking for safety. It appears in the form of a garage. The next morning, the owner of the garage finds them and offers her a place to stay in his own home. The story is filled with twists and turns that keeps you turning the page. A Thriller with romance weaved through, well written and I highly recommend.
A nice easy read with all the ingredients for a romance – woman running away with her son from abuse – found by a kind man – and we're on our way to a budding romance...but is it as easy as that?
