Genre: Christian Romantic Suspense

This woman and her K-9 protect others. Now who will protect them?
After a brutal attack, it took Nevaeh Williams six years to rebuild her life. Now a security specialist at the Phoenix K-9 Security and Detection Agency, she faces danger nearly every day. But when an old friend is targeted, her fragile stability begins to crumble.
Celebrity bodyguard Branson Aaberg could lose more than his career if he fails to end the mysterious threat against his client. Soon he’s more concerned with rescuing the tough but vulnerable woman who joins his security team.
Nevaeh is there to protect her friend, but what if she needs protection? What if the feeling she’s being watched isn’t the result of her traumatized imagination? If the danger is real, Nevaeh’s only hope for survival may be the God powerful enough to defeat her worst enemy—the one she doesn’t see before it’s too late.

Guest Review from Donna
What I think you should know:
Unseen Danger by Jerusha Agen is a Christian Romantic Suspense. It is the third book in the Guardians Unleashed Series, however it is really the fourth due to a prequel. I would recommend that you read the prior books starting with Rising Danger and it introduces many key members of the series in the Ladies of Phoenix K-9 group. This book features Nevaeh Williams and her Rottweiler mix, Al.
What you might need to know:
Nevaeh struggles with PTSD due to a violent attack, she tries to hide how much it is impacting her life
Branson witnessed a church shooting when he was younger, it guided him to become the man he is today.
What I think about this book:
Agen has created a wonderful world with the ladies of Phoenix K-9, each story is full of twists and turns with danger around every corner, but God’s faithfulness shining throughout. Nevaeh’s story touched me in a profound way. Oftentimes I struggle with why God allows bad things to happen to his followers. Nevaeh’s Pop said “But I learned long ago, I got to trust Him ‘cause there ain’t no stopping Him” what a powerful message. I also appreciate how characters in the book come to realize that in a situation where they thought God had abandoned them, He was really there protecting them! I loved this book and look forward to more of Guardians Unleashed
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Celebrate Lit, this in no way influenced my review. All opinions are my own.

More from Jerusha
For as long as I can remember, I’ve struggled with fear. As a child, fear of bugs, thunderstorms, and being left behind shadowed my otherwise happy days.
Though I’m all grown up now, I still haven’t shed that shadow of fear. My fears are more grown-up, too. Now I fear losing loved ones, physical dangers, and death.
People in our culture love to tell us it’s okay to fear. They say fear is natural and even helpful. But the Bible tells a counter-cultural story. The Bible tells us the truth that fear of anything in this world is sinful.
So the Lord has been taking me on a journey to fearless in recent years. And along that journey’s path, I encountered Nevaeh Williams. The heroine of Unseen Danger, Nevaeh experienced life-threatening, terrifying trauma when she was attacked.
Six years later, she’s still haunted by PTSD and frightening memories. As a security specialist and protection dog handler with the Phoenix K-9 Security and Detection Agency, Nevaeh tries to hide her fear. She can function well most of the time, as long as she avoids the trigger of getting close to any large, strong men.
Nevaeh’s story was a powerful one for me to write since she is crippled by fears even worse than my own. Culture would say her fears are “legitimate” and “useful.” Some of Nevaeh’s friends and even her boss encourage her to use her fear as a tool.
But that approach doesn’t help Nevaeh find freedom from fear. Tolerating my own fears doesn’t help me either. Excusing and condoning fear only makes fear worse. Because such fear is a sin which, when allowed to fester, will grow and spread until it takes control of my life.
Nevaeh’s battle against fear is an inspiration to me and anyone else who struggles with worry, anxiety, and any form of fear. Her story shows that defeat of fear is possible. Freedom is possible. Victory is possible. Fearless is possible, only through the power of Jesus Christ.
Do you want to battle your fears alongside me and Nevaeh? Reading Unseen Danger might be a good place to start.
