Acceptable Risk

Lynette Eason's latest book, Acceptable Risk, is yet again a tale full of action from page one.  Sarah Denning is a military journalist working in the Middle East, when she is kidnapped along with a group of young girls.  Gavin Black, a former Army Ranger, is called in to attempt a rescue.  After Sarah is successfully returned to her home in the states, not only will she have to deal with emotional hurts from her past, but danger seems to have followed her home, as well!

Gavin and Sarah had previously met in their time overseas.  So it seems that their reconnection may lead to something more.  When Sarah's father receives threats on his life, he hires Gavin to keep Sarah protected.  Now, you know for sure that things may soon change!

As Gavin and Sarah seem to be finding danger at every turn, it is interesting trying to put all the pieces of this tale together.  Hold tight as you wait to see if the pieces finally fall into place!
