Claiming Grace

Ace Security, Book 1

By: Susan Stoker

Narrated by: Erin Bennett

For Logan Anderson, moving on from a traumatic past means moving back to his hometown of Castle Rock, Colorado, to start a personal-security business with his brothers. But it's not long before Logan runs into Grace Mason, his best friend from high school...and the woman who never answered his letters during his Army years.

Grace was pleasantly surprised to see Logan return to Castle Rock, despite their falling-out ten years ago. Everyone always assumed they would end up together, including Grace, who had eyes only for him. But as Logan eventually escaped their town, Grace got pulled further into her family's controlling grasp - and farther away from the man she loved.

Now, united by scars both visible and not, the two must fight to free Grace from the suffocating hold of her family. But the Masons won't let go easily - and they'll do whatever it takes to keep the couple apart.

Gets a 4 star just for being Stoker's book

Okay, I've read and enjoyed all of Susan Stoker's series, and applaud her willingness to try a different formula. A bit darker.

As another reviewer remarked, there are plenty of plot holes that should have been addressed during the final draft process. The believability that we as readers suspend to allow for "insta love" and legal matters to dissolve with a flick of a pen are normal. But some plot holes are just holes.

What the characters go through as children definitely impact their adulthood. That being said, it is really hard to like the female lead.

As for this narrator in the audio book, she reads well and keeps the listener engaged, but the attempt to do a male voice is just sad. Logan's brother's voices are particularly feminine and awkward.

This author never disappoints

Another winner from Stoker and a great narration. I didn't love this one as much as some of her others, but still decent and worth the time. Will listen to the next one.

Interesting

This was an interesting story but so cheesy. It is not my typical type of book I read though so it is hard to judge.

Susan Stoker always delivers a good read.

this book had many twists, and every time you thought you were close to the end there was something unexpected. I love this

Really awful parents

Intensity. Wondering how she would get free. It’s not a cookie cutter story. Yes there is a damsel in distress. Yes there is a hero/love interest. However the path to happiness is intense.
