Caregiver or crook? Cadi Trent knows personal tragedy firsthand. As a child, her family was swept away in a flash flood, and only she survived. As an adult, she’s an EMT who devotes her life to helping others. When her team, Disaster Busters, is called to a crisis in a nearby town, Cadi is baffled by the hostility she receives from an intriguing sheriff’s deputy. As a law enforcement officer, Frank Parker has seen it all. But he wasn’t savvy enough to see through the deception wrought on his community by a “charitable organization” after a tornado ripped through town three years ago. Now, older and wiser, he’s determined not to trust anyone. Not even Cadi, the lovely Disaster Buster he can’t seem to avoid. How can Cadi love a man who has no confidence in basic truths about her? Only God can help Frank learn to trust-and live-again.
===<\/strong>This story is a nice read to take up some time on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Cadi spends her free time serving others via Disaster Busters, the community service organization that she\u2019s created. The trauma of losing her family in a flood causes her to be empathetic to the plight of others. Her time spent serving other disaster victims wreaks havoc with her social life and it doesn\u2019t appear that she can find a mate who agrees to play second fiddle to her career. She\u2019s stunned when lawman Frank Parker is hostile towards her rescue organization. Frank has been duped by a similar community service team, and he\u2019s hesitant to accept that Disaster Busters is a legit operation. However, trouble arises when a disgruntled victim accuses Disaster Busters of a crime. Can Frank really trust Cadi and her crew?<\/p>\n

This book is book #2 in the Iowa series. If Barbour follows their usual pattern with Heartsong Presents novels, this should be re-released as part of a 3-in-1 volume for the state of Iowa.<\/p>\n

I’m giving this book away as part of my January Book Giveaway.<\/a>
