Publisher Description
Sometimes the scariest things in the jungle aren’t the bugs.
One minute, Casey Shea was minding her own business, doing her job, teaching entomology to college students, and the next she was in the middle of the Costa Rican, jungle fighting for her life.
Troy “Beatle” Lennon has watched his friends fall head over heels in love, but never thought it would happen to him. Until he sees a picture of his teammate’s sister. That was it. The absolute joy in her eyes calls to him in a way he can’t understand.
But that joy is currently being threatened by an unknown person who had Casey kidnapped and hidden deep in the jungle. It’s up to Beatle to find her and keep her safe until the threat can be neutralized. Surviving the dangers of the jungle turns out to be the easy part…staying ahead of the killer is much more complicated…and deadly.
**Rescuing Casey is the 7th book in the Delta Force Heroes Series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliffhanger endings.

A great 7th book
Wow. Susan stoker's books just keep getting better and better. She teases us with snippets and the blurb in newsletters with just enough wet our appetite so when we come to actually read the book we are left in awe at the full story and you are thinking damn it's brilliant. The characters were great and really shone through the story and you could see a connection between Beatle and Casey right from the moment he came to her rescue. Even though she went through so much he was still there by her side, calming her and reassuring her.
We start with Casey, in Costa Rica on a research trip with 3 students for bugs they needed to get their exam results. What she didn't bank on was being kidnapped then being seperate from her students and dumped into a waterlogged out, fighting to live. Then Delta force came along to rescue her as the others had already been rescued.
We feel all of the emotions that Casey had in her from Anger, fear, frustration, confusion and weakness. She is a strong lady with a stubborn nature wanting to do everything herself. Wanting to walk out the jungle under own steam. Beatle likes her........a lot, but focuses on the rescue as thing turn around and some of the kidnappers come back to kill her. Once home this is where things take a twist. Without revealing to much I certainly wasn't expecting that. Someone knows her and wants her gone but who is it? With one phone call can Casey relay to Beatle there is a problem whilst the bad person listens? Will Beatle save her again in time?
A fantastic book that I really enjoyed from beginning to end. Annie was brilliant as always and I had a tear in my eye with the sign she made for Casey. A brilliant book that is a fantastic addition to the Delta force series. I voluntarily reviewed this book as an advanced reader copy
Iffy
The author’s description of the Costa Rican people and their motives/actions within the plot is an overly simplistic take on the typical ‘bad guys’ and leaves a bad taste in the mouth.
The interactions of the two protagonists and the controlling nature of the male character acts are also a little alarming.
Not a comfortable or enjoyable read.
