Soundproof by Jo Chambliss

Title: Soundproof (#5 in Waterproof: Navy SEALs)
Author: Jo Chambliss

A beautiful and heartfelt story of one Navy SEAL's quest to find three women despite their original unsuccessful attempt. 

Cailyn Ridley works as an oncology nurse and is asked by two of her patients, Roberta and Amy, if she'd like to join them for their final trip around Europe, an end of life bucket list trip of sorts. After confirming she'll still have a job when she returns from her absence of leave, the three women set off on their travels. 

They are having a fabulous time until they are suddenly kidnapped on their way home from a Flamenco evening in Spain. Roberta and Amy convinces Cailyn to pretend to be a boy, smears her face in dirt and dress her in male clothes from the rags provided by their captures. The rouse works as Cailyn is set to work as a house servant to the terrorist cell they now belong to. 

A group of Navy SEALs are tasked with rescuing five women captured under similar circumstances. They manage to find the two other women, but they arrive too late. Told to return back to base, one of the SEALs, Tyler "Hawk" Morgan can't let go of the fact that they never managed to find even a trace of the other three women. He uses his spare time to track through surveillance data and eventually gets a break-through. 

This is book 5 in the series, but can be enjoyed stand-alone. Read the other books in the series to find out more about the other Navy SEALs in Hawk's 'family'. 

Thank you to NetGalley and Hover Press for allowing me to read this eARC. The book is released on 7 September 2021 - pre-order your copy on Amazon

The Pucking Proposal by Lauren Landish

Pre-game rituals must be taken seriously, even when they seem completely outrageous - and indecent!  Hilariously believable.  Hockey trope. Brother's best friend. Playing to win. Pub Date: 18 Feb 2025 Part of Maple Creek series #ThePuckingProposal #NetGalley

Den som dödade helvetets änglar by Jan Guillou

"Den som dödade helvetets änglar by Jan Guillou" - freely translated as " The one who killed the angels in hell". A bit late to reading this, but what a treat!!!  His language is beautiful, the connections to true events and living people are spot on, and the criticism of governments thought-provoking and necessary in a democratic-ish society.  Written in a completely different style to his other Hamilton and Ponti books i loved this one! I’ve already got the next one downloaded and will hopefully be in for another treat.  This book is so far only available in Swedish - unfortunately similar to most of Guillou's fabulous books!
