K-9 HOLIDAY RESCUE
Surviving Christmas by Valerie Hansen
When single dad Sean Murray returns from a war zone and discovers someone is following him, he turns to his old friend K-9 officer Zoe Trent for help. But as the threat escalates, can Zoe and her police dog find whoever is menacing Sean and his son…and make sure this Christmas isn’t their last?
Holiday High Alert by Lenora Worth
After a cryptic note appears in the playground at Josie Callahan’s daycare center, rookie K-9 officer Dalton West vows to protect Josie and the kids she loves—especially his daughter, Maisy. And with a stalker closing in, the widower and his four-legged partner are all that stand between Josie and a deadly Christmas.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The romance is nonexistent in this pair of inspirational tales, and the promising premises are hindered by insufficient research, excessive drama, and contradictions. In Hansen's "Surviving Christmas," when police officer Sean Murphy, a single father and ex-soldier, is attacked in his home, he and his son, Patrick, move to Desert Valley, Ariz., to stay with his high school friend Zoe Trent, who's also a cop. Zoe makes arrangements to get Sean who's suffering from PTSD into the service-dog training program; in the meantime, she and fellow officers will investigate the attack. In "Holiday High Alert," day care owner Josie Callahan is receiving threats from an unknown source. Widower and rookie K-9 officer Dalton West's daughter attends Josie's day care, so he wastes no time becoming her protector. The motives of the antagonists are flimsy, the actions of the police are questionable, and the responses of the townspeople are illogical. Neither couple spends any time developing intimacy, and the relationships form because of, not in spite of, the danger they face.
