The Book Junkie Reads . . . Review of . . . COVERING OLLIE (On Call, #2) . . . Durango, CO turns in to a very interesting place on this journey to love with a touch of suspense. Olivia (Ollie) had life going in an acceptable direction with a few little hiccups here and there. She was in no need of a sexy neighbor or even a sexy cop to be placed in her path for any reason at all. She finds that she really do need that sexy new chief of police, Joe. She needs him for more than just the wonderful view, the love he could provide, the comfort he could give, and the protection she apparently needed.
There was so much here in the is small city. The intrigue of why the FBI was so interested in the one woman. The intensity felt. The emotions delivered. The danger. The children were helpful in the emotional bonding with the story. The love of the characters, family, friends, community.
The passion between Joe and Ollie came off the pages. The danger, suspense, and mystery was page turning. It was a bit interesting to see a character from a different book and a different series all read in the same week by complete coincident.
Living in Durango, Colorado for the past eighteen years allowed Ollie Rizzo to build her own business and carve out a quiet existence for her and her teenage daughter. She’s used to going it alone. However, their new silver-haired neighbor might present a problem—not only is he handsome—he’s also Durango’s new chief of police; a complication she can’t afford.
For recently widowed Joe Benedetti, the job offer as Durango’s new chief of police came at the right time. With life, the new job, and his two young sons settling into a comfortable routine, he does his best to ignore the beautiful and intriguing woman across the street. Yet when he discovers she’s caught the attention of the FBI, there is no way he can stay away.
Their worlds collide with the appearance of FBI Special Agent Cruz Livingston. The agent has a warning to deliver, one that spins life in Durango out of control, giving Joe a crucial mission—keep Ollie alive.
Freya Barker inspires with her stories about 'real’ people, perhaps less than perfect, each struggling to find their own slice of happy.
She is the author of the Cedar Tree and Portland, ME Series, the Northern Lights Collection and the Rock Point Series. She is also co-author of the SnapShot Series.
