Bravo Tee O’Fallon! I don’t know how this author keeps creating the fantastic stories, but Hooray for her that she does! This author is an immediate must read.

I think this one may be my favorite. It had everything - suspense, good romantic chemistry, and that “un-put-down able” magic that makes me stay up way too late, racing through the story to see what happens next. Five stars!

Ultimate Justice is the third book in the Special Ops Series and even though you can absolutely read it as a stand-a-lone, I highly recommend reading the first two (and every other book Tee O'Fallon has written!)

Evan is a FBI Special Agent who dedicates his life to finding missing children because his own twin sister went missing when they were children. His painful past and the misguided guilt he feels over it has him living a lonely life.
His capture of an escaped felon leads to the discovery of a missing child, Noah, which in turn reopens cold cases, including his sisters.

Noah ends up in the hospital justifiably terrified and not trusting anyone except the custodian, Marlie who he seems to bond and open up with.
Marlie, after experiencing a truly heartbreaking and life altering event three years ago, is trying to just survive day by day. She wants to fade into the background but that becomes impossible when Noah needs her and Evan won't take no for an answer.

Marlie and Evan's chemistry is off the charts. The story is intense, suspenseful, heartbreaking and heartwarming...a roller coaster ride of emotions and worth every second of putting off your daily responsibilities to indulge this book in one sitting.

Tee O'Fallon does an exceptional job explaining all that goes on with investigations that makes it easy to understand and follow along.

I can't end this review without highlighting Evan's amazing K-9 partner, Blue, who is the icing on the cake in this book and he too has a happily ever after that is just so precious.

Thank you to Tee O' Fallen, Entangled Publishing, LLC and Netgalley for the ARC!

Once again Tee has given me a hero in FBI Special Agent Evan McGarry that is strong and oh so damaged he is the perfect person to wind her stories around and like usual the dog in the story this time called Blue just about steals the show. He is deeply damaged by the loss of his sister who disappeared without trace but now he has got a lead in the shape of an escaped boy called Noah Only problem is he will only talk to one person a hospital custodian called Marlie Foxe. She has her own heartbreaking history and just wants to drift through life not been noticed by anyone. But Evanm isn't taking no for an answer and soon she is working with him. Can thy find all the missing children and can they both let down the walls they have built around their hearts to realise they are in fact perfect for one another You will have to read to see.

Once again Tee has given us a fast paced easy read that has enough red herrings that you won't solve the story in the first few chapters but will have to wait for the story to unfold which is no great hardship

This story features Evan who is finally starting to get answers to the events that have shaped him both personally and professionally. I really liked the story Evan and Marlie are very likeable characters and very heartfelt. They have both been through a lot in the past and in the story we see them develop a wonderful relationship with each other. A story of tragedy, full of tension, a story about finding answers, family, and love.
I volunteered to review an ARC of this book for Netgalley

I have been provided with a review copy of this title from NetGalley for an impartial review. Ahhhhh this was just such a great read. I just didn't want this book to end and I was sad to turn the last page. I'm so excited to see what's next from this author.

I have fallen down the Tee O'Fallon rabbit hole starting with Ultimate Justice. First I would like to point out that while this book is part of a series, it is perfect as a standalone. Right off the bat you meet FBI Special Agent Evan McGarry and his K-9 partner Blue and the abduction ring they uncover. Evan has ghosts from his past that fuel his drive to find missing children and when this case takes a major turn his motivations are higher than ever. Enter Marlie Foxe, a grieving mother who has given up on living and prefers to fly under the radar just to get through life. When her custodial position at the local hospital crosses paths with Agent McGarry, the quiet life she has chosen for herself is over and she finds herself in the middle of the investigation.

O'Fallon wove this story so well. Evan and Marlie have both experienced major trauma in their lives that have fueled their current situations. However, when forced together to work on this abduction case, they are both faced with the trauma they have pushed down for too long. I really enjoyed the character growth for each character. Despite their circumstances and at times unwillingness to open up to one another, they were able to lean on each other and heal. There is thankfully a HEA for everyone and of course romance. This is a fast paced, well rounded story that will leave you satisfied at the end.

*I will say there should be a trigger warning at the end for child abuse and child loss. As a parent, it was tough at times to experience the heaviness of the topic and Marlie's grief with no warning.

Ultimate Justice is the ultimate in suspense! Ultimate Justice follows FBI Special Agent Evan McGarry and his K-9 Blue as they stumble upon a child that had been missing. As they go deeper into the investigation more questions arise leading them into a missing children's ring that has been hidden for decades. The child Evan stumbled upon is the key to this investigation but there's only one problem - the child seems to have bonded with the hospital custodian - a woman named Marlie with secrets of her own. As Marlie works together with Evan sparks fly. But is their chemistry enough to keep these two together? And what secrets of his own is Evan keeping? This book had me engaged from start to finish. The action was thrilling and nonstop. This is the third book in the K-9 Special Ops series and can be read as a standalone. Do yourself a favor and read the other two books in the series. They are that good. Tee O'Fallon is one of my favorite authors and she never fails to impress. I enjoyed the plot and storyline as much as the romance between the main characters. The K-9, Blue, is just as much as a part of the story as the main characters. You won't be able to put this down once you start reading. This is definitely one of my top books for 2024. I highly recommend this book. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Absolutely beautiful chemistry between Evan & Marlie that burned hot & bright. Noah melts your heart while you are angry for him. The camaraderie between the guys & their ladies is fabulous. The banter, humour from both human & Blue had me laughing hard. Blue did steal the show! Excellent suspenseful investigation with romance along the way! Read it! Honest review.

Ultimate Justice🐕

Ultimate Justice is the third book in the K9 Special Ops series. The story focuses on Evan, the FBI Agent who lost his sister when he was a teenager which ultimately shaped the rest of his life, to the detriment of his personal life😢 Marlie is a custodian at the hospital and works the night shift to have as little human interaction as she can. When a young boy comes in, she’s drawn to him and makes a personal connection which Evan sees when he comes to interview the boy.

Lines are drawn and this case is very personal to Evan - he finally has a new lead on his missing sister - and he won’t let anyone get in the way of following the lead to its end. But he soon makes a connection to the boy he rescued as well as Marlie and soon makes a discovery which will change everything he thought he knew about the day his sister went missing😳

Absolutely loved Evan and Marlie and embarking on their journey to discovery and truth…which I must admit took a path I would not have thought possible but only because the clues took me another direction🤷‍♀️ Suffice to say the ending and the “whodunnits” were a surprise❣️Blue, Evan’s dog was a hoot and I loved him in this story just as much🥰 I received an advanced copy via Netgalley and willingly leave my honest review❤️‍🩹

A sweet romance filled with love after the greatest loss. Love full of reunion and triumph. And maybe a little love for the dogs too.

I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Another Tee O'Fallon hit. This was a pleasure to read. I did not want it to end. Romantic suspense at its best. Evan and Marlie, a fractured and caring couple. Each of them had their own tragedy taking over their life. Finally a boy named Noah brought them together and got them to feel once again. Thank you Entangled Publishing and NetGalley for the advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Evan has spent all of his adult life searching for his missing twin sister. When a boy is discovered in the course of an investigation it leads to clues about his sister.

Evan is determined to get the boy, Noah to help him. In order to get his help he must use the one person Noah seems to trust.

Marlie has barely been living for the last three years after tragedy turned her world upside down. She is suddenly thrust in to an unexpected situation that she’s not sure she can handle, but Noah has already worked his way in to her heart in such a small space of time, she knows that she needs to help him.

Evan and Marlie are attracted to each other from the start, but neither of them is really on the right frame of mind for a relationship.

During the investigation they are forced to spend time together and they start to see that they are both broken in their own ways, but that they are also amazing and so strong in so many other ways.

I loved seeing Marlie coming back to life and fighting for the things/people she cared about. She was amazing!

I wanted to give Evan a shake one minute and a hug the next. He was so stuck in the past he almost let it ruin his future.

Noah was such a nice addition to the story and I loved Evan’s dog Blue.

I did guess who the bad guys were towards the end, but didn’t see certain parts of the ending coming the way they did.

Romantic suspense is one of my favorite genres and this is probably my favorite one so far this year. I really wanted them all to get their HEA!

I loved the chemistry between Evan and Marlie! Both of these characters were carrying around guilt and grief and they understood each other’s pain in ways they didn’t expect. Evan was so thoughtful and sweet with her. Noah was so brave and funny and I loved the relationships he built with Marlie, Evan and Blue.

One of my favorite parts was K-9 Blue having his own side romance story!!! I also loved the relationships on the team and there is some very good banter in the book.

The last 1/4 of the book is all suspense! I definitely had a hard putting it down!

Sweet K9 dog, smexy fbi mmc... Be still my heart... Throw in the fact that he's trying to save kids and... If I didn't already have a ring on my finger, Evan would be everything I want in a real man.

And Marlie, sweet Marlie, absolutely deserves him.

The action, the plot, the characters... I look forward to finding and reading every book ever written by this author!

Tee O'Fallon's Ultimate Justice delivers a gripping tale of suspense and romance that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. The story revolves around FBI agent Evan McGarry, whose search for an escaped felon leads to a shocking discovery: a ring linked to missing children, including his own sister.

O'Fallon's expertise in law enforcement is evident in the realistic portrayal of the investigation. The author masterfully crafts a suspenseful plot filled with twists and turns, keeping readers guessing until the very end. The characters are well-developed and relatable, with Evan's emotional journey as he grapples with his sister's disappearance being particularly poignant.

The romance between Evan and Marlie Foxe adds a compelling layer to the story. Their connection is both intense and believable, and their shared secrets create a sense of tension and intrigue. The inclusion of Evan's K-9 partner, Blue, adds a touch of heart and humor to the narrative.

If you're a fan of suspenseful thrillers with a dash of romance, Ultimate Justice is a must-read. O'Fallon's writing is engaging and the story is well-paced, making it difficult to put down.

In perfect Tee O’Fallon fashion it was fantastic. Just fast paced and kept me on the edge of my seat. I always love her books because they hook me from the start and this was no exception.

During the pursuit of an escaped felon, FBI agent Evan McGarry, along with his K-9 partner, Blue, discover a ring with links to missing children. This includes Evan's own sister, who disappeared more than 20 years ago and has haunted him ever since.
Evan's investigation involves interviewing a frightened young boy named Noah. The person Noah trusts most is a janitor at the hospital, Marlie Foxe. The connection between Evan and Marlie is electric, but they both realize the other is hiding secrets.

Evan's investigation leads to a cult targeting runaways. There's a ticking clock as he fears they may pull up stakes and disappear. Noah is in danger as long as he holds information that would lead to the dangerous criminals. Evan needs Marlie's help with Noah if he is to get answers. Time is running out for Evan and the children, and his powerful attraction to Marlie isn't making things any easier.

Ultimate Justice is romantic suspense done right! It has great characters, a riveting plot, and sizzling romance. Tee O'Fallon's law enforcement background shines through in the realistic and suspenseful plot. The characters feel authentic, including the dogs. The story moves at a brisk pace that will keep the pages flying. The connection formed with the well-rounded characters makes their peril, both physical and emotional, even more impactful. This story works on every level. If you love suspense, if you love romance, or even if you love dogs, you're going to enjoy this book. This is the third in the K-9 Special Ops series, but it works fine as a stand-alone. In fact, just meeting the supporting characters who star in the first two books makes you want to read all of them.

This is one of my favorite books of the year and Tee O'Fallon is an author to seek out.

I was provided a copy of this book by the publisher.
