About the Book Rescued Hearts

Book: Rescued Hearts

Author: Hope Toler Doughtery

Genre: Romantic Suspense

Release Date: September 19, 2017

Children’s clothing designer Mary Wade Kimball’s soft spot for animals leads to a hostage situation when she spots a briar-entangled kitten in front of an abandoned house. Beaten, bound, and gagged by the two thugs inside, Mary Wade loses hope for escape when a third villain returns with supplies.

Discovering the kidnapped, innocent woman ratchets the complications for undercover agent Brett Davis. Weighing the difference of ruining his three months’ investigation against the woman’s safety, Brett forsakes his mission and helps her escape, the bent-on-revenge brutes following behind.

When Mary Wade’s safety is threatened once more, Brett rescues her again. This time, her personal safety isn’t the only thing in jeopardy. Her heart is endangered as well.

My Thoughts on Rescued Hearts:

I love a good mystery. The suspense keeps me intrigued. I found both in Rescued Hearts and couldn’t put it down. Do you ever get a book like that? I find I’ve had a lot lately!

Confession #1: I’m a total cat lover and have rescued my fair share. I would have rescued the cat too.

Confession #2: The blonde bimbo impression. I’ve done it. She did amazing. Much better than I could have.

Confession #3: I love Brett’s family! Can they adopt me? I mean the matchmaking is on point.

Confession #4: I’d never make the first phone call so another reason Mary Wade and I would get along amazingly.

No clue what I’m talking about? NO idea what a gorgeous cabin in the woods has to do with anything? Check out this book from your library or purchase it at the store and you’ll know. You also are going to want to make sure you have uninterrupted reading time. Because it’s that good. There are lots of secrets kept in this book. Lots of notions that get challenged and hearts that have to be cracked open piece by piece. It moves at a fast pace but not so fast that you’re missing important clues. Definitely a good read in my opinion.

I received a copy of this book to facilitate my review. All opinions are thoughts are my own and not influenced in anyway.

More from Hope

I live in the country on land my great grandfather owned. For exercise, I ride my bike on our two-lane roads. One afternoon a few years ago, I took a detour off the paved road and onto a dirt path not too far from my house.

The lane meanders by the location of a distant cousin’s long-since demolished house. Trees and a few bushes still outline the phantom house’s parameters, but no boards or bricks mark the spot. Farm equipment waits under nearby shelters.

As I passed the lonely trees and silent tractors, a creepy sensation tickled the back of my neck. My imagination kicked into gear. What if a bike rider rode by an abandoned house? What if she saw a kitten entangled in a honeysuckle vine at the porch steps? What if, while she tried to free the kitten, someone grabbed her and dragged her inside where she was beaten and threatened with rape?

My pedalling picked up speed, and I reached home in record time.

Those questions continued popping up in my mind, however. I began seeing the characters, then hearing them speak every night as I dropped off to sleep. I’d never written a romantic suspense story before, but the characters refused to leave me alone.

Those initial questions led to the first chapter of Rescued Hearts.
