The Delight
Oh how cool is this! I wasn’t expecting to find a neat little long epilogue to the Search & Rescue series, but there it was just in time to get readers jazzed for the author’s new K-9 Rescue series. A brief drop in with all four couples to see how they are fairing in romantic mountain bliss left me smiling and sighing.
Review
This is a freebie extra that caps off the end of the Search and Rescue series and gives an introductory teaser to the first of the Rocky Mountain K-9 Unit series. I enjoyed how the author divided up the seasons with each former pair of main characters getting their update. Winter has Lou and Callum out on an ice rescue run while Callum figures out how to unfreeze his tongue to pop a question, Ian and Rory fight a fire and then their next fire call leaves Rory gasping with surprise in the Spring, while in the summer, George and Ellie go on a dog-thieving mission before Ellie startles George with some new, and finally the fall brings a near death experience for Chris and Daisy when she proves she can be out in the great big world afterall.
Loved this look-in. It’s short. The vignettes only take up a third of the location on my e-reader, but worth snagging for fans of the series. Can’t wait to dive into the next series of books set with the K-9 officers of the mountain area.

Um, yes please. I also already want the K9 series. I think you just added to my wishlist again.
The book temptress strikes again. 🙂
It’s cool when authors write a little something like this for a series you love.
I was so tickled when I saw this, Christy. I know half of it’s marketing the next book and series, but it was also a free peek-in on favorite characters so it was love at first sight.
it’s always nice when you have a short story in a series you like! I need to try this author
It is very nice, Melliane. I was so excited to see this collection of shorts that updated each couple.
Great review Sophia Rose. She is on my list of authors to read.
Oh yes! So worth it, Debbie! 🙂
I’m glad to see you enjoy this author! I have the first K-9 book series on my to be read pile.
I can’t wait for that one, Angie!
Oh how nice to get something like this at the end of the series.
It was a great surprise, Mary. I was so glad to trip over it.
Oh that’s a really fun way to transition between series. I don’t think I’ve seen that done before really.
I think so, too. I think it is similar to the free prequel she did before Search & Rescue series, but this time she did a sequel to this series and introduced the K-9 police in one of these stories to give the new series a push as well. It’s a good idea and was definitely fun for me. 🙂
I skimmed since I plan to read this. I am excited about starting the new series on audio.
You’ll love this one. Its short, but so worth it. I’ve got the new one in eARC waiting for me, too. 🙂
I grabbed this freebie, but I haven’t read it yet. At first, I saw your page count and thought that it was long, but then I saw you said it was only about a third of the book, which is about what I was expecting. I’m very excited to see the next series.

Yeah, that was exactly why I thought I should say something about where the book actually ended so folks would realize it was a shorty. I saw some one flip their lid b/c it was so short and slammed it in a review and I eye-rolled b/c… freebie.
You’ll enjoy it. 🙂 I am itching to pick up my review copy for the next one, but am making myself wait and taking my review books in order. LOL
