I keep hoping for an Arizona series, but this is getting close.
Note - this critique will give spoilers of the series.
The main story involves a car crash with one fatality, one person in a coma and with amnesia when she recovers, and one missing baby. Other stories include a serial killer striking at various state parks who targets blondes (such as K-9 officer Harlow Zane in book 6) and Sergeant Tyson Wilkes working to convince his highers up to make the K-9 unit permanent, in spite of several sabotage attempts.
This series includes:
- "Detection Detail" by Terri Reed.
- "Ready to Protect" by Valerie Hansen.
- "Hiding in Montana" by Laura Scott.
- "Undercover Assignment" by Dana Mentink.
- "Defending From Danger" by Jodie Bailey.
- "Tracking a Killer" by Elizabeth Goddard.
- "Explosive Revenge" by Maggie K. Black.
- "Rescue Mission" by Lynette Eason.
- "Christmas K-9 Unit Heroes" by Lenora Worth and Katy Lee.
Once again, I didn't read the Christmas novella duet.
In the previous series, the broad stories are resolved in books 7 and 8, but this one completes one of the stories in book 6. My favorites are "Undercover Assignment" and "Explosive Revenge." The former one is based in New Mexico (the territory for this K-9 Unit is from New Mexico to Montana); not quite Arizona, but close enough for me to feel homesick.
While I enjoyed the series, there was one story I had a hard time getting into, a first for the K-9 series, that being "Hiding in Montana." Also, there were two different stories in this series where the heroine enters the book struggling to keep her business afloat, with her main business antagonist is a suspect for the trouble-making, and exits the book selling her business to that main antagonist (who was not part of the troublemaking after all) to take another job and be close to the hero. I may be one of the few, but that made me feel sad in both cases.
That said, this series is full of great suspense and romantic tension.
