They hit a rocky patch Dave and Judy Edgars have always loved each other – they’ve been married ten years and have three kids. But ever since Dave, a SWAT team member, was shot on duty Judy can’t control the intense fear that grips her every time he heads out to work. It puts a strain on their relationship. Dave knows she’s scared, but damn it she knew he was a cop the day they met. His patience is wearing thin. Until the tables are turned… One icy winter night, Judy, an operating room nurse, is called into work. She's taken hostage by a crazed gunman with an agenda. Now with Judy’s life in danger and the SWAT team deployed elsewhere, Dave must face the same fear his wife does on a daily basis. Terrified he will lose her, he and his law enforcement family race to save Judy and stop her captor’s plans. Read more

As I have written in many reviews for novellas, an author’s true writing chops are front and center in a shorter length book. The ability to fully develop the characters and create an engrossing, complete story is a challenge when the writer has under 150 pages to accomplish that feat. With this novella, Suzanne Ferrell has written a story that absolutely amazed me from beginning to end! This story is part of the Edgar Family series by Ms. Ferrell, and older brother Dave gets the spotlight. Married for around ten years to his nurse wife Judy, their third child is an infant, Dave is recovering from a gunshot wound while working the SWAT team, and Judy is now terrified whenever Dave leaves for work. The foundation of their comfortable married-with-children life is shaky, and neither knows how to shore it up. And then Judy is called into a shift at the hospital in the OR, only to have the operating room taken hostage by a crazed gunman….. Tables are turned as now Dave understands the fear that had gripped Judy since he was shot. The stakes escalate when the SWAT units cannot make it, and the situation goes from bad to worse. As the suspenseful story leaves you biting your nails and at the edge of your seat, the author gives the reader periodic flashbacks to Dave and Judy’s courtship. This backward glance at the sweetness of their beginning romance contrasted sharply with the dire predicament Judy was in with the present crisis. As a result, I could not help but feel the pain and fear Dave was going through - I have a lump in my throat just thinking about it! This was a fabulous, well-written addition to the series. If you didn’t love the Edgars Brothers before, you definitely will at the end this novella! A five star read!!

The tension from their jobs, along with the risks of his. Comes into his fears when a late night call of her being needed in OR and a lone gunman seeking revenge holds them hostage. Tension plot and short enough to read in a setting.

I’m starting book 4 and am enjoying them all. Just good stories and characters, not filling up pages with repetitive information. Nice to read about a family who like each other. Keeps the f word to times when it is appropriate, not every sentence. Keep writing Suzanne and I will keep reading.

David Edgars is a SWAT team member, his wife Judy is an ER nurse. The couple has been married for ten years and they have three kids. Recently, Dave was seriously injured in the line of his work and fortunately he has made a physical and psychological full recovery. Not so Judy, who has always been terrified by his line of work and hasn't yet "digested" Dave's brush with death. Her continuous nagging about his job and his complete indifference towards her fear have resulted in a serious crisis in their marriage, until the tables are turned and David feels what it means to fear for his partner's life. Usually I don't like novellas because I think they are too short to develop characters and story line properly. However, this book really managed these two components satisfactorily. The author pictured in a very realistic way what could happen to a very happy marriage when the every day workload exceeds the effort to understand what the partner really means and routine might just be the final push to marriage desaster. However, below these layers the marriage of Dave and Judy is still very much alive and the love they share even more so. Ferrell portrayed this beautifully and the excellent cast of subcharacters supported the plot and the atmosphere of the book perfectly. A very sweet read (although there is that teeny weeny cliffhanger at the end...) .

This is the third book in the series and its Dave Edgars and Judy's story. These two have been married for years. It was practically love at first site all those years ago. But now 3 kids later the stress of Dave's job with the SWAT team is getting to Judy and it causing some conflict between the two. When Judy who is a nurse is called in to the operating room one night Dave gets to experience what Judy normally goes through when the OR is taken over by a gunman who has wired all the doors with explosives. Even though this was just a novella it packed an emotional punch and every one in the Edgers family played a big part in the rescue of the hostages. If you haven't read Kidnapped and Hunted I recommend reading those before this one. I am really looking forward to Luke's story now.

The only thing that would have made this better was if it were longer. I think a full-length novel could have been created from this story-line, but then again, I'm not an author so what do I know? :-p Although the hostage plot's been done many times, it's more the emotions that grab you with this one. The love these 2 share and the way Dave's heart was breaking when he thought his wife was going to die.....well, it brought tears to my eyes. It was great to read how his family was there for him, especially since you get to read about characters from the first 2 books in the series, "Kidnapped" and "Hunted". You don't HAVE to read those first, but I strongly recommend it because it gives you a back-story on some of the characters in this novella, plus they're both awesome full-length romantic suspense novels. As for the "cliff-hanger" ending other reviews have mentioned-----well, that tells you Luke's story will be coming soon!

While reading the first two books in this series you meet Dave and Judy but they are already married with kids. You wonder about their story because you like them so much from those books. This is a novella about them and how they have hit a rough patch in their relationship due to Dave's job. Judy is so afraid for him everytime he goes to work and you feel for her. But when Dave has to see what Judy fears all the time it rocks your world. I felt my heart being ripped out of my chest reading this book. The writing was phenomenal, you feel what the characters are feeling and will be crying like a baby! Suzanne Ferrell knocked it out of the park with this one!
