REVIEW: Marked for Revenge by Valerie Hansen

Marked for Revenge by Valerie Hansen is the second book in her Emergency Responders series. This book is filled with action, suspense and thrills.

Kaitlin North is training to become an EMT. She is out with an ambulance crew when they get a call to an isolated cabin. When they arrive shots are fired. Kaitlin is told to stand down and wait until the police arrive but Kaitlin sees lots of blood on the front porch of the cabin and fears the person inside might bleed to death without medical intervention. She breaks into the cabin and finds a man on the floor with extensive bleeding from a leg wound. She doesn’t find out the man’s identity until they get to the hospital. Seems the wounded man is Daniel Ryan, the St. Louis policeman who let Kaitlin off without an arrest when she was a rebellious teenager mixed up with friends into drugs. What a coincidence! Kaitlin believes Daniel saved her life by that kind act. When assassins try to take out Daniel in the hospital while Kaitlin is visiting she helps him escape and they go on the run together. Their pursuers are breathing down their necks the whole time Kaitlin is trying to get Daniel to safety.

Being chased by assassins leads to lots of exciting scenes. Daniel was in hiding after his partner was shot and killed and the police chief believed he was mistaken for Daniel. Daniel had been working undercover and was outted by someone. Thus the assassins on his tail. Valerie Hansen tells this story in a clear, concise way and works in the action scenes quite well. Fans of action and suspense with a couple falling in love in the middle of all the action will enjoy this book.
