Attempted Murder, Amnesia and Love Found

Nate, an officer, witnesses a car crash which is obviously an attempted murder when gun shots occur
The woman has obviously been abused and can not recall her name or what happened
The story is well written building upwards, piece after piece and dialogue from the ‘good guys’ and the ‘bad’. Suspense and romance as a bonus
Enjoyable story and the narrator was perfect for the male lead, did fine with the female, but just fell short during the rest of the story. Not bad but felt a bit more zing would have helped
I received a free audiobook for an honest and voluntary review

Nate and Rose!

Fast paced and exciting, Cheryl Yeko treats us to Nate and Rose's story! Nate is coming home after wrapping up a case only to see a speeding car veer off the road. When he gets to the car, the woman is unconscious, and after being shot while trying to help her, he knows she is in danger. When the woman awakes with no memory of who she is, Nate takes it upon himself to protect her, calling her Rose and doing his best not to act on his attraction to her. The questions are who is chasing her and why, and will he be able to keep her safe? Will she get her memory back and what will happen if she does? I love these kind of romantic suspense stories. Memory loss is extremely interesting, learning how the brain works, and what could possibly trigger the return. Rose is strong and brave during her journey, and having the handsome Nate by her side is just icing on the cake. Nate is the kind of man you want next to you during times of trouble. This is a fast, fun listen.

Alan Taylor has a very rich voice, and I enjoy his performances He has a protective quality that shines as Nate and he easily transitions into Rose with strength and love. He creates a warm feeling and makes the listen exciting and comforting.
