ABOUT THE BOOK

Title: A Strike to the Heart 

Series: Strike to the Heart #1 

Author: Danielle Grandinetti 

Publisher: Iron Stream Media 

Release Date: April 12, 2022 

Genre: Historical Romantic Suspense 

She’s fiercely independent. He’s determined to protect her. 

Wisconsin, 1933―When a routine mission becomes an ambush that kills his team, Craft Agency sniper Miles Wright determines to find the persons responsible and protect the woman he rescued. But the fierce independence that led Lily Moore to leave her family’s dairy business for the solitary life of a dog trainer and the isolation of her farm don’t make that easy. Neither does his unwanted attraction to her. Meanwhile, escalating incidents confirm that she’s far from safe. 

Lily fears letting the surprisingly gentle retired marine into her life almost as much as she fears whoever is threatening her. As Wisconsin farmers edge toward another milk strike, one that will surely turn violent, it becomes clear that the plot against Lily may be part of a much larger conspiracy. When the search for her abductor leads close to home, she must decide whether to trust her family or the man who saved her life.

My thoughts: I have enjoyed some of the author's previous stories, so I was thrilled to have a chance to read this one! I enjoyed the history that the story is immersed in, since I hadn't read about the dairy strikes during the Depression. I also found Miles job and the set up of it to be interesting.

Miles is tasked with finding a young woman who has been kidnapped, a mission that should be fairly cut and dry. When things go south right before finding Lily, he realizes that things may not be as easy as he originally assumed. As he and Lily join forces to uncover who is behind the violence and kidnapping, they discover some interesting clues along the way, both in regards to the mystery and in how well they work together. I liked that Lily is a strong character and how she and Miles come together to figure out what is going on. This is a wonderful story to pick up and enjoy!

I received this book from Just Read tours. This is my honest review.
