Summary

From New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Nicole Blanchard comes a small town military romantic suspense where opposites attract and combust.

He was a grumpy jerk. And I wanted nothing to do with him. Absolutely nothing at all. So why couldn’t I stay away?

I lost everything when my family was murdered, including myself. After years of therapy and conquering my agoraphobia, all I wanted was to start over. The quiet North Carolina resort seemed like the perfect place. Until I discovered a dead body.

The only person who believed me is the last person I expected…surly mountain resort owner and recluse Ford Collier. A man who is rumored to have killed his own teammate on his last deployment as a Marine. As dangerous complications arise, I’ll either learn to trust again, or neither of us will make it out alive.

Romantic suspense..my favorite!

Nicole Blanchard knows how to keep my attention with her fabulous romantic suspense! This is the first book in the First to Fight series and I was on the edge from the start. Peyton has come to town, running from her past but always looking over her shoulder. She witnessed the murder of her family and now is just beginning to put her life back together. Working for grumpy Ford at the hotel is just to get by until she finds something else. But just when she gets ready to leave, she finds a murdered woman on the beach. Now determined to see the case until the end, she is staying and the chemistry between the broody, former marine is growing. But will Ford let his heart be taken? Will he be able to keep Peyton safe a the murder is investigated? I would say this is a fun listen, but some would think I am crazy. I love a book that pulls me in and makes me think. Blanchard always plots her stories so well, and this one not being and exception had me trying to guess the entire time. My heart raced with suspense and with the budding love. It's a fabulous story and wonderful listen!

Christopher Rourke and Ariel Royce bring it all alive with a fantastic performance. Rourke dives into the grumpy man that is Ford. He never gives an inch, is stubborn and difficult, and when he loves it fierce. Rourke captures his voice with all the nuances perfectly. Royce is new to me, showing her versatility as Peyton grows. At first, the timid, scared woman, she finds her ground and follows her way. Royce nails it in each scene as Peyton begins her new journey. I loved these two and think they made a wonderful team and great listen.

Excellent Story & Listen🎧 Captivating & Intense!

Nicole Blanchard pens another amazing novel set in her “First to Fight” series, a romantic suspense that not only captivates your attention the entire book but it tugs on your heartstrings too. The characters are realistic, easy to relate to and connect with, they were easy to care about too. Peyton Rhodes is trying to get on with her life after suffering a traumatic event and a devastating loss. It has been three years since, a tough three years, but she stepped out of her house and into her car and while she has a destination, she is in no hurry to get there. A road trip takes her to scenic Windy Point, a small town and tourist stop in North Carolina where she decided to stay and booked a room in “The Bear Lake Lodge” for the week. The place was recommended, but the supposed owner, Ford Collier, was not the friendliest or the most welcoming for someone in the hospitality business. Ford, former Marine Special Ops, had his reasons for being a grump or not wanting to be overly friendly with anyone. There is something about Peyton that he recognizes and it is something he is familiar with, pain, she is hiding her pain, but he caught a glimpse of it.  And when Peyton stumbles upon a dead body by the river, a body that disappeared, Ford believes her. The police are called in and on the case, but without a body or evidence of one, there is not much they can do. Then other unexplained things happened, and she questions her own sanity, but Ford is there for her, keeps her grounded, and wants to protect her. I thought these two were great together and for each other, despite being broken and haunted by their past. I loved how everything played out in this book, it is a beautifully plotted romance and the mystery suspense storylines are well done, they keep you on your toes and take you to the edge of your seat and wow, I never guessed or saw that coming. Nicole Blanchard, thank you for another fantastic story and emotional rollercoaster ride.  

🎧📚🎧 And for the terrific narration, Ariel Royce and Christopher Rourke were the perfect cast to bring these characters to life and did so with a complete understanding of who they were portraying, giving each a voice that fit that character’s persona and were believable in every role they played. They set the perfect tone for the story, captured all the characters’ emotions and projected them into their performance. These versatile voice artists are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for the great listen.
