"The Blood Oath": A mother’s secret, a lost identity, and a father’s decision bring peril to a man who learns who he is and what he’s made of in trying to save a young woman.

"The Patsy": A swindler with violent tendencies discovers elderly widows can be dangerous, too.

Outstanding!

I can only hope this author Ross town right more books like this. I totally enjoyed them all of them. Where the good wins against the bad guy. All parts store is the great I really can’t say which one was my favorite but the one with the truckers and the teenage boy was really good, but the one with Luke having to save Jennifer that was really good too they were all really good I love them! If you love normal people saving the day you will absolutely love the stories. Not to mention the narrator was awesome he did such a great job. Sometimes I wish I could give a book more than five stars but alas I cannot so I will just give it five stars across-the-board.

Intense stories

This was an interesting compilation of stories - all well-written, all well-narrated. I was a little uncomfortable with all of the stories having an undercurrent of direct or indirect sexual assault but that was the catalyst that drove the desperation in all of the stories.

LOVED IT!

I loved it! The narration was great and kept me entertained. The author did a great job with the characters. I liked that you get five stories all in one book. This was not my first book by this author, I previously read Touched and enjoyed it as well. I look forward to reading more books by this author. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Solid Writing

A solid collection of suspenseful stories. Short but definitely kept my interest with each story.

Narration was fitting for this collection.
