He lives to enforce the law. But he’ll break every rule to protect her.
Nick Clark
I clipped a shiny, new FBI badge to my belt, thinking I could save the world. Four years later, the shield’s got some dents, along with my idealism. And there’s one cold case that’s come back to haunt me.
A killer has resurfaced, and all my instincts tell me he’s after the victim that got away. I’ll break every rule in the book to protect beautiful, scarred Meadow. Because I’ve done the most dangerous, most distracting thing an agent can do. I’ve fallen for her.
Meadow Holiday
I don’t believe in fairy tales. Not after an attack left me a half a woman. But when Nick swears to protect me from my worst nightmare, his charm cracks my resolve to guard myself. One kiss shatters it.
But, like the evil villain in the tale, the killer won’t stop until he finishes what he started. And our happy ending balances on the point of a knife.
Customer Reviews
A Gripping Romantic Thriller
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Heat Level: 🔥
As a newcomer to Riley Edwards' literary world and diving into "Saving Meadow," the inaugural installment of The Next Generation series, I found myself swept up in a whirlwind of emotions. This novel presents a compelling blend of romance and suspense, leaving me unexpectedly teary-eyed at times.
The narrative revolves around Special Agent Nick Clark, whose determination to safeguard those he cares for is put to the ultimate test when faced with a sadistic serial killer. Meadow Holiday, the captivating and off-limits witness, becomes both his mission and his unexpected love interest.
Edwards weaves a tale of survival with a resilient heroine at its core. Meadow's strength and vulnerability make her a character worth rooting for, while Nick's unwavering dedication adds layers to their blossoming romance.
However, amidst the adrenaline-pumping action and heartfelt moments, I couldn't help but notice a slight deficiency in the level of spice typically found in romances of this genre. While the emotional depth was palpable, I yearned for a bit more sizzle to complement the narrative.
Nevertheless, "Saving Meadow" delivers on its promise of a fast-paced storyline that keeps readers on the edge of their seats. Edwards expertly balances suspense with tender moments, crafting a tale that resonates long after the final page is turned.
In summary, "Saving Meadow" is a gripping romantic thriller that sets the stage for an engaging series. Despite its minor shortcomings, the allure of its characters and the intensity of its plot make it a worthwhile read for fans of suspenseful romance.
Captivating!
This is the first book in The Next Generation Series, a spinoff of The 707 Freedom Series, a Romantic Suspense (I need this series!). You do not need to read The 707 to enjoy The Next Generation but it is recommended. Nick and Meadow's story is fast paced, and entertaining, filled with action, danger, romance, and twists and turns. Nick, a FBI Agent, is very handsome, and protective. He is such a great man! Meadow is a strong survivor, smart, and resilient. She is a beautiful character. I liked Sally, the service dog. She definitely is a great addition to the story. The storyline is emotional, and captivating. The world building is very interesting. This is an excellent introduction to the series. Looking forward to listening to Chasing Honor, the next book in the series. Troy Duran and Devon Grace did an outstanding job with the narration. Troy Duran already is on my list of favorite narrators. Devon Grace is a new narrator to me. She has a beautiful voice, pleasant to listen to. I enjoyed it. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. If you like Romantic Suspense, this one is for you.
