The story takes place for a few days as Paige and Lucas are on the road from Florida to Texas. There's not a second where the reader is left thinking or getting bored, as these characters get chased the minute they get inside a car. Lucas has only one goal to get Paige, Kenny and his therapy dog, Aslan, to Texas safe and alive.
There is so much action to keep you gripped right from the go. While on the road there's a constant tug of war, speeding, bullets flying around, and cars crashing into them. Paige and Lucas don't have a moment to breathe freely every time they get going until they lose their tail for a while. That's when there are sweet, emotional moments between them all.
There are moments of calm where Paige and her son are adorable and their bond shining making Lucas all emotional, all the more attracted to Paige.
When the going gets tough, all three hold on strongly to their faith in God. There are constant, small prayers at the back of their minds. It was very affirming to see them get through it all with faith in their hearts.
I enjoyed how love, kindness, faith, trust, and even the therapy dog's loyalty kept them going through whilst among some very terrifying moments and being almost killed.
SHIELDING THE INNOCENT TARGETis a sweet, emotional, quick read, I finished it in a day while I rooted for love and justice to win and the bad guys to rot and all. Pick up a copy and enjoy a story that will hook you from the go and stop only when all are happy and safe.
