In this prequel to Flee the Night—the first book in Susan May Warren’s critically acclaimed Team Hope series—Lacey Galloway leads a rather predictable life as a contractor for the Department of Defense. But news that Sergeant First Class Jim Micah is missing in action leads her on a dangerous trek overseas to rescue the man who secretly captured her heart.

Although her DOD connections quickly cut through the red tape, she also enlists the help of her ex-boyfriend and Micah’s best friend, Lieutenant John Montgomery. As they hatch a covert plan to find and rescue Micah, Lacey’s feelings are once again torn between the two men.

After this I am intrigued to read the rest of the series. Susie May Warren is one of the first Christian Fiction authors I read many years ago and I have yet to be disappointed in her stories. While most of hers that I have read is from her Christian Historical Fiction series, I enjoyed this introduction to some of her contemporary novels. I just added the Team Hope Series to my wish list, I’m sure I’ll like them all. Her narrative voice is one that keeps me going back for more.
