Vigilant ~ Review with Giveaway

Welcome to the Blog Tour and Giveaway for Vigilant, the first book of The Night Guardians series by Sara Davison, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!





Vigilant
The Night Guardians #1
By Sara Davison

Children have been being taken in the night and no one can figure out why. Detective Daniel Grey and his partner Sharleen Roberts are left with few clues or leads to follow much to the frustration of their commander. Whoever is targetting these kids seems to know exactly what they are doing until one night they received a 911 call that could be their big break. But not all breaks prove helpful if they can't bring the pieces of this puzzle together.

Nicole Hunter keeps people at a distance it is the only way she can avoid disappointment when they let her down which they always do. Her parents are a perfect example of this always bailing out of any planned get-together. It's been years since she's seen them and phone calls are brief affairs that leave her wishing for more. She has no desire to find a man to mess up what she has but Gage Kelly isn't about to be deterred. He sees something in Nicole that he can understand - a deep seeded pain that has become part of who she is. Nicole is someone he's not about to give up on not when he feels the way he does about her.

The first few chapters introduce the reader to the characters (it is a bit confusing at first but once it gets into the story it clears up). When the characters start having their lives intersect it gets quite interesting as it moves towards the climatic conclusion.

This book focuses on children that are caught in a repeating cycle of abuse and those who try to work within the bounds of the law that can't always protect them. But if you could do something when the law fails would you risk everything to protect these young victims?  That is what Vigilant asks some of its characters. Overall this a well-written, well-paced book that fans of romantic suspense - especially the Love Inspired Suspense type reads will enjoy.

I was provided a complimentary copy of this book with no expectations but that I offer my honest opinion. All thoughts expressed are my own.

ABOUT THE BOOK

Title: Vigilant
Series: The Night Guardians, Book 1  
Author: Sara Davison 
Publisher: Mountain Brook Ink 
Release Date: June 1, 2019  
Genre: Inspirational Romantic Suspense


She must choose between the man who represents the law and the one who may have taken it into his own hands.

Neglected by her parents for most of her life, Nicole Hunter keeps everyone, especially men, at arms’ length. So when Attorney Gage Kelly walks into the diner where she is waiting tables one evening, she fights her attraction to him with everything she has.

Gage and his brother Holden grew up in an abusive home, and Gage has baggage of his own. But the connection between him and Nicole is too strong to ignore, and Gage manages to convince them both that their relationship is worth the risk.

Then children begin disappearing in the night.

When Detective Daniel Grey starts to close in on the child snatcher, and enlists Nicole’s help, she faces her deepest fear. Everything and everyone she has clung to so tightly could be ripped from her, leaving her completely alone.

Except for one.
