About this listen

Egan Maddox isn’t sure he’s the right man for the job when Northstar director Byron O’Neal asks him to find his missing daughter and protect her from an unknown danger. Egan’s never shaken off his attraction to Kellee O’Neal and hiding away with her could be more trouble than this former Navy SEAL can handle.

Kellee is lost, with no memory, and believes someone wants to hurt her. When Egan appears and seems to know her, he convinces her she’ll be safe with him. As her memories resurface, she turns to Egan for comfort, and her youthful crush transforms into a womanly passion she can’t deny.

With the Russian Mafia closing in, Kellee learns her entire life has been a lie. How can her love for Egan be enough to help her navigate the murky waters of her past and prove that her heritage doesn’t matter as much as the woman she’s become?

ENTHRALLING

DEAD RECKONING is the second book in the Northstar Security series. They each stand completely on their own and can be read in any order.

Hurricane Igor, amnesia, the Russian mafia, and sexual tension all kept me enthralled from beginning to end. I lost count of the number of times I held my breath in this story! This is not a good thing when you are driving- LOL.

It starts out with a hurricane; not one of my favorite things in the world since I do live in Florida. Kellee’s life spins out of control from there until she finds her anchor, Egan. I loved that even then she didn’t make it easy on him and he didn’t make it easy for her either.

I loved that Kellee was a strong young lady. She was resourceful, smart, and independent. She wasn’t afraid to speak her mind and face the consequences of her decisions. With Egan, she is fierce and just as determined as he is. This girl is not going to just say “yes, Sir.” He better have a reason for his orders or she isn’t going to jump. She is my hero!

I was rooting for Egan from the minute he fussed at Kellee’s father. Can you tell I have a bit of the rebel in me? I’ll pretty much do as you ask, as long as you have a good reason, but “because I said so” isn’t a reason. Still, you can tell he has a soft spot for his Sweet Kellee and he only needs to know she is missing to start jumping. Isn’t that sweet, too?

The suspense was fantastic, entertaining, and well executed.

Narration: The narrator, Charles Norman, is like listening to a favorite uncle tell a story. (Mine was named Uncle Wib.) I could listen to him for hours and hours. His name on a book would be a positive factor in choosing it for purchase!

Note: while I was given this book as a gifted audiobook copy, my opinions are my own and are given freely.

A Gripping & Entertaining Listen

This is an excellent listen! The pace was good and the storyline keeps you interested until the end. The only problem I had with the narration was Mr. Norman's voice choice for Egan. I didn't think it fit the character. Other than that, this is a wonderful audio book to listen to! I will be looking into getting the other two in the series.

Egan and Kellee

I received a copy of this book for my honest review.

Kellee spent her whole life being protected by the men in her life. She chafed under the restrictions and went to a different company. I do not understand why her father thought it would be dangerous to work for him but had no issues with arranging her a job with another company.

Kellee comes back to her apartment and gets ready to evacuate ahead of a hurricane and is confronted with a Russian kidnapper. She then gets swept away in the hurricane and loses her memory.

Her father then asks Egan to go find her and keep her safe. Egan has feelings for Kellee, but he was an asshole to her the last time he saw her. Despite that, he is able to gain her trust and keep her somewhat safer. His own gruffness with her tends to get in his way. But she slowly remembers everything and develops deeper feelings for him.

As they are chased by the Russian mafia, they work together. It is a thrilling story.

The narrator was difficult to listen to although I eventually got used to it. His voice for Kellee was like that of a man mocking a woman. His voice for Egan was fine, but a few decibels louder than normal, so it was jarring. I did get used to it.

Russian mob and secrets

Kelly is a PI living in FL when a hurricane is about to reach land. Her plans to evacuate are halted when a man barges into her apart and attempts to kidnap her. After a struggle, Kelly kills the man and races into the storm. Days later, Egan is summoned to his job and is assigned the task of locating the boss’ missing daughter...yep, Kelly! When Egan finally locates Kelly with FL evacuees, she has temporary amnesia. Follow Egan, as he tries to protect Kelly from unknown assailants, as well as struggle with his attraction to the little spitfire. Lots of bad guys and drama. Great story and narration! I actually enjoyed this book more than book 1. Looking forward to the next book.
I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an unbiased review.

Interesting and Entertaining

This was an interesting and entertaining story. I thought it was a bit dragged out in the middle when Egan and Kellee were traveling however it still held my attention. Egan was a bit gruff for my liking and therefore I didn’t really feel the romance between him and Kellee the way I think I was meant to. All in all though there was enough action and good storyline to make the book entertaining. I liked it much better than the first book in the series. Charles Henderson Norman did a great job with the narration and all the voices were very distinguishable. I received a free copy of this audiobook and am providing an unbiased review.

Loved the Details

I got this story via audiobook boom and this is my voluntary review. I loved this story. A beloved daughter is sought by a vicious biological father. She gets caught in a hurricane and loses her memory. The man sent to rescue her is also in love with her but is fighting it. But he will not allow anyone to hurt her. Past secrets are revealed and love conquers all including what could have been a bad situation between beloved father and daughter. The narrator did a great job and the many twists of the story made for an exciting listen.

Entertaining mystery love story.

A well crafted entertaining thriller with a dash of a mystery and a spritz of a love story.

This is well performed by the Narrator who mixes his accents with relish.

Pretty good, for what it is

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

I started this series with this book, so didn't have any background information from book 1. That being said, I didn't feel lost, really, so was able to enjoy this book on its own. The narration was pretty solid, especially the Russian accents, and I really enjoyed the listen.
