About this listen

From New York Times bestselling author Susan Stoker comes a sizzling suspense about the romance that blossoms between two strangers during a snowstorm and the stalker who threatens them both.

Riggs “Chappy” Chapman didn’t expect to be disrupted at his remote cabin in the woods. But when a stray dog arrives on his porch, he winds up finding a stray woman, too, trudging through the snowstorm in search of shelter. His military days may be behind him, but Chappy is hardwired to protect her from the storm and whatever it is she’s running from.

Carlise Edwards didn’t expect her car to break down in the Maine wilderness. All she wants is to escape whoever is stalking her back home. There’s no way anyone’s going to find her and Chappy deep in the forest, especially not in dangerous weather. But she finds it hard to mind the circumstances when the company is this stimulating.

As the snowstorm rages, Chappy and Carlise find that, despite the cold, they can generate plenty of heat of their own…but there’s more than just natural dangers lurking in the woods.

Credit worthy!

Very satisfying and heartwarming! Strong male lead, no cheating, likeable heroine, and a dog! Yay!

Slightly Above Average

The writing was easy to follow, nicely detailed, and the characters were well-described. The storyline was cute, but predictable and slow moving. It had a hint of spice, but could easily have had more with these two characters. I will say there was a lot of repetitive, inner dialogue…but the book did have a twist, which was nice. Not sure I’m interested in the next book.

protector potential falls short

great prologue and satisfying beginning. nice character development. unfortunately works too hard to convince with words and internal dialogues rather than allowing the story to convince with action, this making the story too prefictable. the beautiful setting and characters still.make the protector a good 'read'.

Great new series

This was an amazing start to a new series but one of my favorites authors. This book was a lot less military than the other, more of the after effect of service. The close bond between Chappy, JJ, Cal and Bob are both heartbreaking and heartwarming. I can’t wait for the rest of the guys books. Chappy and Carlise story is so sweet. It was great to watch Chappy win Carlisle over with just being a good guy. This was a wonderful story. And of course Ryan West was amazing. He is my favorite male narrator. Ava Erickson was good too.
