I liked this story as I love stories about K-9s and children. This story had both. When a mom and her little girl were kidnapped, STEALTH operative Elle Spade and her K-9 partner, Daisy, were assigned to find them. She wasn't thrilled to have to work with Sargent Grant Anders, but she would take any help she could get. It turned out that they worked together better than either expected.
As they searched for the mother and daughter, they were worried about finding the two before it was too late. Especially the little girl.
This was a great book. I was hooked by the constant action and tension of the search as well as the light romance.
4.5 stars

I like the storyline. I love the depth the heroine loves the little girl, and her K-9 partner with a passion. She has a broken mouth with more swear words than is probably necessary. Young kids are the ones who tend to speak that way as a way of demonstrating they're not a baby but colorful adults & it does the opposite. The second thing is because of raw sex scenes, if you just flip about 4 or 5 pages over it picks back up right where the storyline left off. Overall; the book is actually very good. I just think if she tweaked it some she'd have an excellent story.

Good, quick read. I love any book with a dog. I will pick up some more books by this author.

Elle Spade is a great dog handler but her psyche is a mess, she's all over the place.
Part of it is due to some horrible events she witnessed in Afghanistan,
Sgt. Grant Anders, Missoula County Sheriff’s Office, is looking for his forever love.
Elle is convinced that love is a lie.
It's a good thing that the author, Danica Winters, got all the mushy stuff out of the way from the start. Except, oh no, Grant is staring at her ass:-
"From the lines on her ass, she liked bikini-style underwear. Probably red. No. Blue. She seemed like the kind of woman who wanted relaxed, easygoing lovemaking. In his limited experience, it was the women who wore red panties who were the wild things and those who leaned more toward blue who were more of his speed."
I like a deep-thinking man :)
Oh god, now she's looking at his ass:-
"That ass. Damn. He must have been the master of squats ... The animalistic part of her brain, the part she wished she could control, made her wonder how it would feel to have him in between her legs. She could almost feel his ass in her hands as he made a few of her wilder fantasies come true."
Whoa there girl!
Just get a room the two of you!
Meanwhile there actually is a plot - a little girl is missing, her mother is dead. The father, a US Senator, knows more than his prayers.
Elle and Grant make the beast with two backs and soon afterwards find the missing child.
It's all pretty run of the mill stuff and instantly forgettable.
2 Stars.

Security operative Elle Spade has two loves: her K-9 partner, Daisy, and the three-year-old girl that is her responsibility. The child is daughter to a US senator, but Elle has never met him, and wonders about how he really feels about Lily. Then Lily and her mother disappear and Elle is certain it was her fault for not seeing what might happen when she saw men talking with Lily's mother, men she'd never seen before.
Local police sergeant Grant Anders steps up to assist in the search for Lily and her mother, only to find the woman dead of multiple stab wounds. But where is Lily and is the blood on her mother's body that is not hers an indication that Lily, too, is being harmed and may also be dead?
Looking for the child forms the basis for joint efforts between Elle and Grant to find Lily, even as they begin exploring their respective feelings for each other, but will their relationship become something more than a fleeting fling in the midst of all that is going wrong with the search for the missing child?

I enjoyed this intriguing Romance that I bought at our local Goodwill store. This is not for the under 18 readers. It does contain some sexual content. However, it did draw me in fairly quickly and I do wish I had more time to read it faster. My guess switched back and forth a little bit but it's all laid out at the end and a few little surprises come through.

Bad language
This could have been a great book but they added language that just ruined the whole thing. So sad that writers thing that they need to put that in there. Its not even the bad guys that are talking. Good people don't talk like that.

K-9 Recovery
I worked hard just to finish this story. I am not sure what was so discouraging about it. It was just sort of boring.

Ok. I only picked it up because I have a fondness for Rotties

This was just a romance with very little to do with K-9s or recovery. Not every interesting.
