About this listen
No stranger to adversity, Liam Ryan has also cheated death. He kept himself and his twin sister safe through a tough childhood in the foster-care system. Then, at age 24, he took his first trip abroad and was blown up and presumed dead in a terrorist attack. Three years later an investigator locates him working as a security guard in Jerusalem.
Scarred mentally and physically by his ordeal, Liam needs space to decide what comes next. So he agrees to join his sister Ali and her new husband, Joe, at their sprawling estate in Port Townsend, Washington. Joe’s sister, Teresa, fleeing a broken engagement and her controlling mother, also comes to stay. Liam mistrusts rich people, but Teresa, the kind of society princess he would normally avoid at all costs, is hard to resist. Especially when she becomes suspiciously accident prone and in need of a protector.

The writing is wonderful. I found the tone to be a mysterious and suspenseful tone. I enjoyed it being read by the author. There was always an air of "the other shoe is going to drop." The characters were so well-developed and the details of them in the story made me feel like I was there. Listening to the story actually gave you the feeling that you were there, kind of like you were eavesdropping.
A romantic suspense worthy of listening to

I have had the pleasure to listen to both of the books in this series and enjoyed each of them. I loved being able to catch up with Joe, Allie, Teresa and others as well as meeting someone new.
Learning Liam's story was something I was hoping for since he was introduced. Definitely a lot more interesting than I think most people would have expected.
I highly recommend listening to the first before taking on this one, there is a lot of useful information that will help make this one make sense.
Looking forward to the next one, I really like this family and look forward to keeping them around for a bit.

The Guardsman (The Olympic Peninsula Series Book 2) Audiobook by Cat Treadgold
The Guardsman is the second book in The Olympic Peninsula Series (Audiobook) and is a Romance Suspense that will pull you in from the beginning and doesn’t let go till the end. This is my second Audiobook by this author and I truly enjoyed it as much as the first book. This author did their own narration and they knocked it out of the park . I’d highly suggest listening/reading the first book as it will help you to know the characters and what has been going on. The storyline flowed so well through the narrator that I felt like I was a part of the story. Liam and Teresa are about to find out what happens when your accident prone and need a protector. I highly recommend listening to this story to find out what happens next. It’s a definite must read/listen. I’m looking forward to reading/listening to more from this Author.

The Guardsman is book 2 in the Olympic Peninsula series and this was a very enjoyable story. I highly recommend listening to book one, so you can get a backstory on the characters, especially Liam. I also enjoyed that the narrator of this audiobook is also the author as well.
Liam Ryan was originally presumed dead after being caught an explosion in Israel. His twin sister, Ali, never give up hope that he was still alive. When a private investigator finds Liam, Theresa, who is Joe’s sister, brings Liam home. Liam tries to adjust to being “home” with Ali and Joe….while Theresa has her eyes set on Liam. Deep down, Theresa thinks Liam is stunning and she is intrigued.
Sparks fly between Liam and Teresa even when Liam does not want to admit it at first… but when strange occurrences start happening to Teresa, will Liam be there when she needs him the most?
This is a very good story with suspense, romance and intrigue. I am already looking forward to more from this author.
