Welcome back to Caseville!
This is book 4 of the Protect and Serve series but can be read as a standalone. If you’ve read the previous books though or the Sunnydale Days series you’ll be excited to be back in Caseville with your favourite characters.
In this book it’s been 6 months since Pete’s life got turned upside down due to doing whatever it took to help his daughter Ari, who has a chronic life threatening illness. Sitting alone in a bar he meets a gorgeous younger lady who propositions him leading to a steamy one night stand. She just so happens to be his daughter’s new doctor Emma. A relationship would be forbidden but they can’t deny the pull they feel towards each other.
Pete is a silver fox. His love for his daughter knows no limits and I love their relationship. He’s terrified about his daughter’s health which can make him shut down and be standoffish at times which is completely understandable. He falls for Emma hard and fast. I loved the age gap romance.
Emma is such a lovely FMC. She’s intelligent, caring and goes above and beyond for Pete and Ari. I love her relationship with her younger brother too.
I love the small town vibes and the sense of community it brings with all of the side characters who we have met in previous books. It has great disability representation too with a range of characters with different needs.
Ari’s medical journey will have you on the edge of your seat at times and is an emotional rollercoaster for all involved. There’s also twists and plenty of drama that I didn’t see coming.
I enjoy Constance’s style of writing. I’d say the story is medium paced and easy to get lost in as you get attached to the characters. The spice is fade to black with minimum detail.
Overall I give this 4 stars. I really enjoyed it and will definitely reading more of the series.
This book is well developed and will actually bring you to tears at times. A father fighting for what’s right in his job, his daughter and in the younger doctor he has fallen for.I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
One of the best books I’ve read this year! 5 stars!
Such a poignant book. It deals with health issues, real life problems and hope from love. It has some very serious issues that the characters dealt with. It also if filled with hope and love, plus a community spirit that supports each other. I really enjoyed reading this book The author does a great job with the storyline and the characters. She pulls from some of her other stories with some of the same characters that made to book familiar to be because I read everything she writes but if you are new to her it is very much a standalone book. I would give this book and the author more than 5 star if possible.I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
