About this ebook

Two years after his brother’s murder in jail, Department of Homeland Security K-9 Officer Kade Sampson is still haunted by guilt. No man should ever have to arrest his own brother, even if he is laundering money for a drug cartel. Fortunately, Laia Velez—his brother’s gorgeous widow—never learned the truth about Kade’s involvement. But when she asks him for help, he knows that trouble with the cartel is far from over...

Kade is the last person Laia wants to call. But between her house being thoroughly trashed and the uneasy sense that she and her young daughter are being watched, Laia isn’t taking any chances. The cartel wants something from her. And Kade and his K-9 partner, Smoke, are her only chance to survive whatever fresh hell is coming their way...

Now Laia and Kade are trying to stay one step ahead in a game that’s growing more deadly by the minute. But what the cartel wants, the cartel gets. And Kade is running out of time to save the woman he loves from the same fate that killed his brother...

Ratings and reviews

When you think the last book of the series was the best, this talented author changes your mid as she delivers another outstanding story filled with heart and honor. This time the story belongs to DHS K-9 Officer Kade Sampson. Almost six years ago, Kade met the woman that in a short time stole his heart and then broke it when he realizes she had given her promise to someone else, his brother. After his brother’s death, Kade has kept his distance but when Laia Velez but she needs him now.

All the action, all the feels! Laia's life was destroyed when her husband, Josh, was arrested and then murdered for his involvement with a drug cartel. But when it appears that the cartel is after her again, two years later, she calls his brother, Kade, to help keep her and her young daughter safe. Despite all the water under the bridge between her and Kade. This is a fast-paced action-packed story that beautifully balances the ever-present threat and the even more undeniable passion between Laia and Kade, all while gradually teasing out the secrets they've been keeping from each other since before she married his brother. A lot of times with action/crime drama romances the romance gets a bit short-changed in the story. Not so here. There's a lot of depth to their history and the reasons why they weren't in each other's lives for so long. Even so, I loved the way Kade's relationship with Rosa, his niece, was a continuous thread that showed so much about what kind of man he is. This was a book I couldn't put down until I finally got to their triumphant HEA. I loved every bit, especially Rosa's relationship with Kade's K-9, Smoke. If you like reading about heroic K-9 officers and their sexy handlers, this is your new favorite author. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

I’m loving these Federal K9s. We’re on the sixth book of these interconnected series, and just to ensure we get even more of a doggy fix, we always get an assist from one or more of the previous pooches. Honor ‘N’ Duty sees Homeland security officers Kade Sampson and his partner Smoke trying to protect both his sister in law and niece from the drug lord who had his brother killed. They’re against the clock as the odds are stacked against them.
