Sergeant Nathan Thompson lost his leg in Afghanistan. Megan hides a secret. When they are assigned as a paramedic team, tensions flare—Nathan thinks Megan is a condescending know it all, and Megan resents a partner who might not be able to offer 100%.
As they respond to calls their mutual respect grows. Then Nathan notices bruises on Megan's arms, and her excuses don't add up. The next life Nathan must save may be that of his own partner—if only she'll let him.
Reviews:
...'Crossing the Line is well written and well planned and involves topics of growing interest to mainstream readers. The placement of a war veteran into a position of contrasting weakness and power is masterful. The use of medical jargon is interesting without leaving the reader bored. The love story keeps readers guessing and engaged.'
...'very compelling'
...'fast paced and easy to read'
...'The strengths of this novel are the moments of action, the scenes of emergency and procedure. These are what ultimately make it unique'
...'The nature of the characters' profession is literal life and death, and the reader gets an up close view of how rescue personnel must come to grips with this fact. This also lends to the excitement and adrenaline running throughout the text and pushes the reader to keep reading—and read quickly.'
Reader Reactions:
'Ok, I'm finished. Shaking, shocked, and finished. When is your next one going to be complete? I can picture the entire book in my mind. Every single detail. Holy cow.'
'Oh my God. The book is so good!! Was so good. I'm sad it's over. Not everybody wants to read things that are "socially acceptable"…Sometimes you want raw and realistic and relatable but still with enough magic and feel good warm fuzzies to get you through it and make you love it all the more. That's exactly what [Crossing the Line is].'
'The whole damn book was amazing! I read until 3am, then thought about it all night. Then woke up thinking about it. It's a GREAT book! I loved it! I want more! I'm still hungover from that book. I can't even get into another book right now, had to go to magazines.'
'My partner just finished your book. He threw it and screamed. He's like, "WTF! When is book two coming out?? Why do authors leave you like that!!!" He said its the only book he's ever read, like actually finished. He's read books but never finished them. He says he's going to need xanax because of a book.'
