Book Beginnings, First Line Friday, & Friday 56: Chaos (A Breed Apart: Legacy #2) by Steffani Webb & Ronie Kendig

Book Beginnings is a weekly meme hosted by Rose City Reader that asks you to share the first sentence (or so) of the book you're reading. I'm also linking up with Carrie at Reading is My Superpower for First Line Friday. Friday 56 is hosted by Freda's Voice and asks you to grab a book (any book), turn to page 56 or 56% in your ereader and share a non-spoilery sentence or two. Freda is taking a hiatus right now, but Anne over at My Head is Full of Books has taken over until Freda returns.

This week I'm featuring Chaos (A Breed Apart: Legacy #2) by Steffani Webb & Ronie Kendig, a really exciting romantic suspense set in the jungles of the Philippines. 

About the Book

When Rio Silva is told her aunt and uncle are missing in a Philippine rainforest, she knows there is only one way to find them: the retired military working dog her dad entrusted to her. Chaos, however, has a mind of her own. A lot like Rio. Worse, they’ll have to trust arrogant, demanding former Army Ranger Cathal McGowan if she hopes to get them back.

The last thing Cathal McGowan wants as he heads into the darkness of the rainforest is to be shackled with a young, pretty teacher who has no tactical experience. But she has heart—he’ll give her that. And he has the expertise necessary to rescue her family.

Putting everything on the line, Rio and Cathal struggle to navigate the terrain, as well as their emerging feelings for each other. But the closer they get to mission success, the more things aren’t adding up, including who might be behind the disappearances. It’s not long before they realize the rainforest holds greater perils than deadly vipers…and the biggest danger of all might be to their hearts.

Dive into another thrilling A Breed Apart: Legacy adventure!

UNDISCLOSED LOCATION,  IRAQ

Sweat dripped down his face. Down his back. The heat almost suffocating under the sixty pounds of gear strapped to him. And dirt. It was flipping everywhere and invaded every inch of...everything. What he wouldn't give for a day back in Kildare right about now.

Friday 56 

Adrenaline was making it hard to think, but she did know that this was a bad idea.
