Word of Honor 

(Love and Honor) 

October 4, 2022


  
FBI Special Agent Lynda Culter is investigating an ecoterrorist organization in the Alaskan wilderness when her partner is taken captive and murdered before her very eyes. The only person who can identify the key players, Lynda gets assigned to take part in a joint operation in Istanbul to take the organization down.

As a woman in a Muslim country, she'll find it much easier to move around undetected with a fake husband. Unfortunately for her, the man assigned to play the role is none other than US Army weapons specialist Bill Sanders--the man who crushed her heart into a million pieces back in college.

With a cargo bay's worth of hurt and baggage between them, these two consummate professionals must play their parts perfectly if they hope to stop those responsible for bombing oil pipelines, killing innocent civilians, and threatening to destabilize the oil markets. But love long buried has a way of resurfacing at the most inopportune times--and protecting Lynda has become Bill's primary focus.


Steve's thoughts:    

 

Wow!  Better strap yourself in before you open this book, because author Hallee Bridgeman is about to take you on the ride of a lifetime!

 

We live in a world that is becoming increasingly and aggressively self-centered.  Everyone has rights, and holds beliefs that they are willing to die for . . . or kill for.  Which is why we need people like FBI Agent Lynda Culter and Army Weapons Specialist Sergeant Bill Sanders (you can call him Drumstick, he won’t mind!) on your side. 

 

Green War, an extremist ecoterrorist group with a history of blowing up oil pipelines around the globe, has finally been run to ground by Agent Culter and her partner (and serious love interest!) Jack Haynes.  While serving a warrant on the group in Anchorage, Alaska, the situation suddenly and tragically escalates, and Jack is shot and killed, and then set on fire, while Agent Culter is forced to look on helplessly.  Backup arrives in time to rescue Agent Culter, but there are some things one never recovers from.

 

Months later, Sergeant Bill Sanders and the rest of the Alpha Team he serves with receive orders to Turkey, where they coordinate with other international agencies . . . including the FBI and Agent Culter.  However, this isn’t the first time the Sergeant and the Agent have met.

 

In fact, the last time they met, Bill had shattered Lynda’s heart, and annihilated her world.  As Bill and Lynda will soon discover, the Lord works in mysterious ways, His wonders to perform.

 

Thrown together as “newlyweds” for the sake of the operation, it doesn’t take long for the old flame to start flickering again, and it soon flashes into a consuming fire that neither one feels led to extinguish.

 

Spanning the globe in search of the mastermind behind Green War’s vendetta, the closer they get to their final destination, the more certain it becomes that Bill and Lynda were meant to be together. 

 

Full of twists, turns, and surprises, Word of Honor will keep you up nights turning the pages as you travel with the best of the best, doing what they do best.

 

Unapologetically Christian in her writing style, Hallee Bridgeman openly and honestly reveals the character and nature of a God who truly cares about His warriors, both in and out of the battle.

 

Word of Honor has a couple of treats at the end of the book:  several Middle Eastern recipes inspired by the book are included, as well as a discussion guide which is perfect for individual use, or for small-groups.

 

 

I received this book free of charge in exchange for my open and honest review.
