About the Book:
After a tour of duty in a war-torn country, embattled former Navy SEAL Max Jacobs finds himself discarded and alienated from those he loves as he struggles with war-related PTSD. His wife, Sydney, files a restrain order against him and a petition for divorce. Max is devastated.
Then a mysterious man appears. He says he's organizing a group that recycles veterans like Max. It's a black-ops group known as Nightshade. With the chance to find purpose in life once again, Max is unable to resist the call of duty and signs on.
The teams handles everything with precision and lethal skill--until they're called upon to rescue a missionary family from a rebel-infested jungle and avoid a reporter hunting their identities.
Will Max yield his anger and pride to a force great than him--love?
My Thoughts:
I didn’t read Nightshade by Ronie Kendig in a single sitting, but I could have. This highly entertaining story held my attention from start to finish. The plot packs in danger, romance, and suspense in exotic locations. Max’s personality and personal drama added to the intensity of the story. I absolutely loved his second-chance romance with his almost ex-wife, Sydney. Their relationship was spot on and I loved how things played out between them.
Nightshade by Ronie Kendig kickstarts the Discarded
Heroes series. There are some overarching situations that must continue through
the series, but the main relationships and situations had satisfying closure. I’ve
already ordered book two, Digitalis, and I can’t wait to read more about
this amazing group of men and their romances.
Love this! War related PTSD is such a problem, It's nice to see a book where a veteran can continue to feel needed.
