This is old school suspense romance. Enjoyed the story of ex-mercenary who is drawn back into the business. First for revenge for the death of his wife and child. Secondly to protect the recently widow neighbor who is in the crosshairs of the cartel who just murdered her husband. Good storyline that had me finishing the audiobook in one day. This is a part of a series but I never would have known, except for the part at the end that was a little like a reunion. Thank you #NetGalley for this ARC, all opinions expressed are my own. #TheWinterSoldier

This is a Cowboy Romantic Suspense, and this is the 5th book in the Soldier of Fortune series. I have not read the other books in this series before picking up this book. I listened to the audiobook for this book, and the narrator was not my favorite. This book has a great mix of romance and action/suspense. I really got pulled into the story, and I did not want to put this book down. This book did read old country, and it almost read like a historical fiction book. I received an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.

Another great story by Diana Palmer. I liked the characters and the push/pull that happened between the two main characters. The narrator did a good job but sometimes I wish they would have both male and female narrators to do the male and female parts of the story instead of having the male narrator try to sound like a female. All iin all it was a very enjoyable story to listen to.
