This romantic suspense story starts in a perilous
situation; a man is walking through an office building
shooting people. This spree killer wears body armour and
the SWAT team that arrives needs to study the situation in
case of a second shooter. Ashley Parrish, who has come to
Tennessee for an auditing contract, tries to help other
women while hiding and calling the emergency services. She
just hopes they will act in time.
TENNESSEE TAKEDOWN pulls no punches as Dillon Grey works
with his SWAT team to resolve the situation. Later, Ashley
can answer few questions as she is a recent arrival in the
firm. She drives off through the Smoky Mountains badly
shaken. Her troubles are far from over however and only
because Dillon decides to check on her does anyone know how
badly matters have gone wrong. The pair of them end up on
an island in a swollen river, during a storm, with at least
two gunmen chasing them. They don't know why this is
happening and have to depend on their wits and Dillon's
local knowledge.
Dillon is a dependable, quick-thinking man, well trained in
his demanding job, but at home he keeps rescue horses and
trains them for adoptive owners. Ashley is a CPA who for no
reason she knows, appears to be at the centre of this
chaos. She can't help blushing when she thinks of Dillon,
but there's no time to relax let alone get romantic, for
the murderous pursuers are determined to capture - or kill
- this Nashville native.
This is a fast-paced story with plenty of escapades and yet
there is time for two people to discover love. TENNESSEE
TAKEDOWN is an adult romance which probably breaks all the
rules about police starting relationships with witnesses.
In the end though they have to decide if a girl from the
bustling city could live in a small town, or a guy from the
Smokies could move to a city, or if there is anything in
between to sustain a relationship. Author Lina Diaz has
made sure that it's not all shots and punches; an element
of depth in the characters improves the story. Her other
works are also romantic suspense and they sound just as
interesting.
A SWAT officer in small-town Tennessee will do anything to
protect the innocent beauty whose life has been put on the
line in Lena Diaz's Tennesse Takedown
It can't be a coincidence that in the past twenty-four
hours, three different thugs have tried to kill or abduct
Ashley Parrish. Sexy SWAT team leader Dillon Gray saved her,
but now he wonders why someone would want to murder the
beautiful accountant…and why he finds her so infuriatingly
attractive.
Then the FBI comes after Ashley for embezzlement, and Dillon
knows he must protect her from a killer and prove she's
being framed. Taking her on a hair-raising run through
dangerous terrain barely fazes him. But wanting her for more
than just one night scares the hell out of him.
