Description

Ex-Navy SEAL, Sean Murdock, is done with the Navy, done with being a bodyguard and ready to embrace construction as his new vocation. When he offers to ride shotgun with the local mobile veterinarian to deliver a horse to a client, he doesn’t expect the trip to turn into a rescue mission.
Gabbie Myers grew up on a ranch in Montana and knew from her first pony that she would become a veterinarian. Now she has a mobile practice that takes her all over the county and sometimes further. When one of the new construction workers at the Lucky Lady Lodge offers to go along for the ride to deliver a horse, she accepts, knowing she’s heading into notoriously survivalist territory. She’s happy to have someone along who knows one end of a gun from another. 
At a truck stop to refuel, Gabbie hears pounding from the inside of an eighteen-wheeler’s trailer. The discovery of a teenaged girl inside, leads her and Murdock on a mission to free others trapped in the compound from which the girl escaped.

    I received a complimentary copy of this book and I am voluntarily reviewing it. While this is a part of a series, you don't have to read the prior ones to fully understand and enjoy this delightful tale. This story is told in a dual POV format. I love getting to know the characters better by seeing into their thoughts. It really makes them more humanized and believable. Gabbie is a veterinarian who comes to Sean Murdock's rescue when his horse bolts. To pay her back for saving him, he volunteers to go with her when she delivers a prized stallion to a location near a dangerous town of preppers. Surprises abound here and to this reader's delight, hopefully the introduction to another great series with Murdock's friends! This is a sexy read but if you aren't into that, I would just skip over those few pages so you can enjoy this story.

    Another book by Elle James that I couldn’t put down. Murdock, Iron Horse Legacy Book 8, was excellent. When Hank Patterson introduced Sean Murdock to his group of Brotherhood Protectors, Sean was not seeking employment. He was happy as a carpenter at Lucky Lady Lodge. Until he meet Gabbie Myers, the lady veterinarian. Gabbie needed help delivering a horse to a dangerous survivalist part of town and Sean stepped right up to help her. Unbeknownst to Sean, this would be a rescue mission. At a truck stop waiting to refuel, Gabby hears banging from a truck near them. When they investigate they find a teenaged girl locked inside. Listening to her story and finding out there are more girls imprisoned, Sean and Gabby are off on their dangerous rescue mission. I received a copy of this book as an ARC from the author. All of the opinions are my own.

    A*R*C for honest review with no compensation Murdock is book 8 in the Iron Horse Legacy series by Elle James and so enjoy seeing old friends from this series and from the Brotherhood Protectors. Sean Murdock, ex-Navy seal working for the McKinnon family to rebuild the Lucky Lady Lodge and has been approached by Hank Patterson to join the Brotherhood Protectors. When he meets Hank at the family ranch they head out on horses to talk and check the range but his horse spooks almost throwing him when another rider comes to his rescue who happens to be Gabby Myers, ranch veterinarian. When she explains her apprehension at dinner about delivering a horse, Sean volunteers to be her protector, something he thought he would never do again. What happens next will keep you on the edge… Suspense danger emotional nailbiting, child abductions, drama and more…
