The Guardsman

The Olympic Peninsula, Book 2

By: Cat Treadgold

Narrated by: Cat Treadgold

No stranger to adversity, Liam Ryan has also cheated death. He kept himself and his twin sister safe through a tough childhood in the foster-care system. Then, at age 24, he took his first trip abroad and was blown up and presumed dead in a terrorist attack. Three years later an investigator locates him working as a security guard in Jerusalem.

Scarred mentally and physically by his ordeal, Liam needs space to decide what comes next. So he agrees to join his sister Ali and her new husband, Joe, at their sprawling estate in Port Townsend, Washington. Joe’s sister, Teresa, fleeing a broken engagement and her controlling mother, also comes to stay. Liam mistrusts rich people, but Teresa, the kind of society princess he would normally avoid at all costs, is hard to resist. Especially when she becomes suspiciously accident prone and in need of a protector.

Enjoyable

I haven’t read the first book in this series, but still really enjoyed The Guardsman and didn’t feel lost. The suspense and family dynamics and loyalty to each other throughout the book was great.

great audio book

This is my second audio book in this series which I enjoyed listening to just as much as the first. If you haven’t listened to the previous book in this series I highly suggest doing that. It is just as great as this one. I enjoyed the narrator and what they added to the story. They made it easy and engaging to listen to. What happens when you are accident prone and are in need of a protector? Liam and Teresa are about to find out. Their story is one that is full of romance and will keep you coming back for more. The characters have great growth as well as chemistry throughout the story. I really enjoyed this audio book and I think you will as well. I highly recommend this audiobook.

Great Book

5 Star’s
The Guardsman (The Olympic Peninsula Series Book 2) Audiobook by Cat Treadgold
 
 
The Guardsman is the second book in The Olympic Peninsula Series (Audiobook) and is a Romance Suspense that will pull you in from the beginning and doesn’t let go till the end.  This is my second Audiobook by this author and I truly enjoyed it as much as the first book. This author did their own narration and they knocked it out of the park . I’d highly suggest listening/reading the first book as it will help you to know the characters and what has been going on. The storyline flowed so well through the narrator that I felt like I was a part of the story.  Liam and Teresa are about to find out what happens when your accident prone and need a protector.  I highly recommend listening to this story to find out what happens next. It’s a definite must read/listen. I’m looking forward to reading/listening to more from this Author.

Intrigue and Romance

This is Liam and Teresa's story. Once again this author took me by surprise. The audio story puts your mind into the audience. This story holds all the suspense and romance you could ask for. Teresa is a strong independent woman and Liam has seen and been through enough trauma. While both are tied together by family and blood, their banter is fun to follow. Can Liam and Teresa fight their true hearts and stay away from each other? Will their siblings help to keep them apart? Having been to Port Townsend, this story fits perfectly, even if there were some fabrications. I still love this story. This could be a standalone, but I feel you should read this series in order, as book one has some information that will keep you on track with this story. Yes I will be waiting to see where this author takes the next in this intriguing series.

I got my questions answered

The Guardsmen (The Olympic Peninsula, Book 2)

I have had the pleasure to listen to both of the books in this series and enjoyed each of them.  I loved being able to catch up with Joe, Allie, Teresa and others as well as meeting someone new.

Learning Liam's story was something I was hoping for since he was introduced.   Definitely a lot more interesting than I think most people would have expected.

I highly recommend listening to the first before taking on this one, there is a lot of useful information that will help make this one make sense.

Looking forward to the next one, I really like this family and look forward to keeping them around for a bit.
