The Girlfriend Rescue

A K9 Handler Romance (Disaster City Search and Rescue Book 1)

By: Jenna Brandt

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

A search and rescue cop training to become a K-9 handler, a lovely dispatcher who always has his back, and an earthquake that threatens to tear them apart…

Officer Ted Hendricks has been biding his time, locating missing skiers and hikers for three years in Colorado, while waiting for a chance to become a K-9 handler. When a spot opens up at the Disaster City Search and Rescue facility in Texas, he jumps at the chance to go, even though it means leaving his girlfriend behind.

Dispatcher Deanna Harper had one strict rule — never date a cop. That all changed when she got to know Ted Hendricks. He was the only single officer in the department who didn’t hit on her, which made him all the more appealing. When he decides to travel across the country to train as a K-9 handler, she decides he’s worth taking a chance on a long distance relationship. When Ted’s team is deployed to help in the aftermath of an earthquake in Colorado, Ted finds out that Deanna was in the epicenter.

Can Ted find Deanna in time to save her? Will Deanna be able to survive until he does? And if they reunite, will they find a way to be together despite the distance between them?

Follow Your Heart

Initially, it seemed all too easy to see the relationship between Ted and Deanna. It was loving and nurturing. Distance however, is an obstacle that is very difficult to overcome for close relationships, although it is possible. Finding Deanna and Maggie in trouble was what pushed Ted over the top forcing him to recognize his priorities. Once Ted could get past seeing the destruction of the city and knowing that Deanna needed him, his resolve was unflinching. It was certainly gratifying to be able to use your newly learned talent to save your lady love. Sweet love story!

NO! To virtual voice!

The flat narration ruins a good story. Words are mispronounced, there's no variation to the tone or nuances in expression and there's no distinction between the characters. Not the way to promote the stories.

Bad Narration, Strory ruined.

Could be a good listen, but virtual voice narration ruins it. No difference between male and female characters.

Too much praying... I had to quit

The virtual voice isn't as annoying to me as some people, but it's incorrect inflection and all the praying made me not finish listening. I consider myself a Christian, but the kind that does not have to talk about church and prayer all the time. I would like to know how the story ends but the girlfriend and her church stuff made me stop early.
