About the book
Every marriage has a
secret, but this one is deadly. Lauren Stephens wakes up to find her husband,
Gene, has vanished during the night. His phone is dead. Desperate, she hires
Jake Wolfe and his war dog, Cody. They search the house and discover something
so disturbing that Jake won’t allow Lauren near it. “No, if you see this, there
is no unseeing it.”
Lauren thought she had it
all: a loving partner, two great kids, a successful business, and a beautiful
home in the San Francisco
hills. But all of that is about to come crashing down, due to a missing
husband, a hidden past, and a frightening secret that will shock a trusting
wife to the core. Gene has enemies, and now they want something from Lauren.
Jake Wolfe is a flawed man
who has a habit of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. He wants to
leave his secret, violent past behind him, but when Lauren and her children are
threatened, his protective instinct takes command. Jake soon finds himself
involved in a dangerous conspiracy, targeted for death, and engaged in battle
with a powerful, unseen group who will stop at nothing to get what they want.
Jake’s going to have to
think fast and fight hard to protect Cody, Lauren and her kids.

And I thought
I couldn't turn the pages fast enough. I couldn't sleep
because I couldn't put it down to sleep!
Vigilante Assassin kept me spell bound from page 1. Jake Wolfe
just grabs your interest especially when he shoots a would
be
assassin out of the water within minutes of the first line of the
book.
This was a ride that keeps you hanging onto your seat.
I was surprised by a few things.
I expected some language. I expected some graphic scenes
what with all the murder, kidnappings and gang activity. I expected some
bedroom scenes.
To my surprise and pleasure I found none of the above and
would
gladly offer this read to granny. She wouldn't even blush!
The plot was a bit twisty beginning with an assassin after Jake
and then moments later he is asked to help find a missing person who he finds
dead in his own home in a secret room.
The plot continues to unfold leading to more assassination
attempts
drug running and kidnapping.
When the bad guys decide the only way
to get to Jake is by snatching his girlfriend Sarah. Who by the way wasn't no
easy victim she literally takes out a couple of the would be kidnappers before
she is finally snatched.
I can honestly say that this is the best book of this kind
that
I have read this year.
The characters are all well developed. The good guys Jake's
friends and associates are like-able, trusty worthy and get the job down.
And then there's Cody the retired military dog that Jake adopted
when his handler Jake's friends looses his life. Cody is a huge part of
the story. He is engaging and brings some humor to the story.
Jake rewards Cody for a job 'well done' with meatballs no sauce.
He's a protector and trained rescue dog. He can be a lap dog and therapy dog when needed.
If you like a thrilling suspenseful read check this one out.
I can easily give it 5 stars and then some if I could!
Vigilante Assassin is book 2 in the Jake Wolfe series.
Each
book is written as a stand alone. I didn't even realize it
was
book 2 until I started to write this post. You'll enjoy it even
if you haven't read book 1. But expect to like it so much you'll buy it too.
I received a complimentary copy.
This review will appear on retail sites and Good Reads.
