Expired Promise ~ Review

Expired Promise
Last Chance Fire and Rescue #3
by Emilie Haney 
   and Lisa Phillips

What will it cost him to save her from the flames?

If you love Christian Romantic Suspense, you won't want to miss this read. Andi Crawford is always striving to be the best. Wanting to best her brothers has blinded her to her true gift. As an EMT, she can save lives in a meaningful way, but Andi doesn't see it that way. Focusing her energies on becoming a firefighter, is she denying her God-given talents? Andi doesn't see it that way, no matter how many doubters question her.

Jude Brooks is back in Last Chance County, the one place he never planned to return to. But his job as an ATF agent has him looking for answers. Specifically, why has the Crawford family attracted to attention of a cartel drug lord?

Coming home has him realizing that he never got over Andi Crawford, and if this assignment doesn't end soon, his heart may never again be his. And if he can't keep her safe, he may never recover.


There are secrets long hidden that need to be uncovered if Jude has any hope of getting the answers he seeks. But how do you force the people you most care about to reveal the truth that could save them or doom them?


This was an excellent and can't-put-it-down, I'm-reading-all-night type of book. It is part of a series but can be enjoyed as a standalone book. Highly recommend it to fans of Romantic Suspense.


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


About the Book:
She won’t stop until she’s proven her worth.

He promised to always protect her.


EMT Andi Crawford is close to achieving her goal. She’s reached probationary status as a firefighter with the Eastside Firehouse and only needs show her older twin brothers—and herself—that she’s cut out for the job. Facing the daily challenges of a female firefighter fades to the background when her family becomes the target of a dangerous drug cartel with ties to a client Andi’s mother represented as a defense attorney. Andi will stop at nothing to protect her family.


Even if that means accepting help she doesn’t think she needs.


ATF Agent Jude Brooks is back in Last Chance County tasked with uncovering information on the family that took him in during his summers as a teen. It seems impossible the Crawfords are connected to a dangerous cartel leader, but Jude’s by-the-book attitude won’t let him approach his job any other way. As he wades through a web of false information, the feelings he tries so hard to avoid resurface. Andi’s as headstrong as she was as a teen, but her acceptance of him is a balm to the hurts from his childhood. He’s determined to uncover the truth—for her and himself.

If the secrets of the past don’t tear them apart.
