Nico
travels to Sanctuary to decompress and be evaluated and he never thought he
would run into his late spotter’s fiancé.
Abigail is babysitting the Sanctuary owners’ baby when Nico
arrives. Can they build a relationship
when the past comes calling?
Saving Nico is the sixth
book in The Men of Sanctuary
series. The author did a good job giving
readers an idea of what some snipers go through, especially when they lose
their partner. I liked that she also
showcased a situation that does sometimes happen when people are in special
circumstances, where someone becomes attracted to a friend’s romantic
interest. Some of us may have gotten
crushes on friends’ boyfriends in high school, but don’t act on it.
In
Nico’s case, Pete wasn’t exactly faithful to Abigail and ended up marrying
someone else before he was killed. Of
course, Abigail didn’t know that when she decides she has to get away from home
and pursues a career in the area of Sanctuary.
Nico knows he should say something, but doesn’t when it comes back to
bite him.
Nico
and Abigail have a lot of chemistry together.
Both have some baggage that needs to be cleared up, but there is the
little matter of sabotage going on at Sanctuary that brings a lot of people
together to resolve it. While there are
quite a lot of twists in the story, it does become clear who the bad guy is
about halfway through the book, but the resolution of this situation was great.
Nico
has to do some major damage control when it comes to his relationship with
Abigail, especially when Pete’s widow shows up.
I had to laugh at the efforts of all the friends of Nico’s and Abigail’s
when they tried to help them after their blow up. I loved their families’ reactions as well.
While
this story can be read alone, I recommend the series be read in order. A few situations mentioned will make the
humor extremely funny if you know the backstory. The Men
of Sanctuary series is on my to-be-read again bookshelf.
