ABOUT THE BOOK

MY REVIEW
Oh, what fun Dana Mentink’s Act of Valor is to read. It continues the storyline that Justice Mission began, but with its own set of dangerous scenarios, sweet romance, and sprinkled-in humor. I definitely enjoyed it.
When Violet Griffin—and Zach Jameson, too, as her close, protective friend and cop—becomes caught within the drama of drug smuggling, the action-packed story takes off. The threat of danger proves never to be too far away as danger lurks at every page turn. Complicating the circumstances, Violet and Zach both must grapple with their changing, more-than-friendship feelings toward the other.
It was a pleasure to join Violet and Zach through this mystery and suspense. Through it all, they complement each other well—both stubborn and tough, yet not without vulnerabilities—and the way their romance blossoms amidst the danger is oh so heartwarming. I highly recommend their story to interested readers, but be aware that reading Justice Mission first will enhance the experience with the overarching series plotline.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
GUEST POST FROM THE AUTHOR
Cops and killers and beagles, oh my! It was a ton of fun writing the second book in the new True Blue K-9 Continuity series. First of all, I had the honor of working with some AMAZING authors. (It’s challenging creating a world together and keeping all those details straight!) I had the privilege of following the amazing Lynette Eason, so that’s always a plus! Second, I learned all about the astonishing world of beagles! Those critters are just amazing. For instance, the original beagles were tiny, only 8 inches tall and could be carried in a pocket, which is why they called them Pocket Beagles. I need one of those! The name beagle comes from the French, which is translated “wide throat” or “loudmouth.” This is well earned by Eddie in my story, who will occasionally let loose with the trademark baying. The beagle's small size, general friendliness, and ferocious scent drive, make it the perfect dog to sniff around airports and get into compact spaces. Eddie enjoys doing just that with Zach, his handler and best friend. He earns those gourmet treats that Zach bakes up for him. Best of all, Eddie was rescued from death before he became a canine cop star! It’s just awesome when you can twine fact with fiction to come up with a tail wagging suspense story! I hope you enjoy the second installment in the series!
