Fighting Redemption: A Small Town Romantic Suspense (Texas SWAT Book 1) Kindle Edition

Tactical Medic Jena Martin has put her career as a combat medic behind her and thrown herself into working with the Ransom, Tx SWAT. But that comes with its own set of challenges. Namely, her brooding Team Leader, Alex Myers, the one man who shows zero interest in her, which is a shame. She could do with a pleasant distraction. Jena is certain someone has been in her home, moving her things and eating her food.

SWAT Officer Alex Myers knows when one of his team is operating under duress, and he’s always been hyper-aware of Jena. It’s clear to him she hasn’t been herself lately. After a successful operation, he corners her when she doesn’t want to go home. The battle-hardened medic breaks down in his arms and confesses she fears for her safety. Someone is stalking her, and she has evidence of possessions going missing.

Alex offers Jena his guest room for the night. She’s always been a bright light on his team and in his life. When she seeks comfort in his arms, all the barriers he’s erected in the name of professionalism crumble. As their forbidden relationship blossoms, Alex uncovers Jena’s secret. She might not have a stalker at all. It might be PTSD from a horrific accident she suffered overseas. Before Alex can get to the bottom of things, he’s slapped with an order to stop seeing her—or lose his job. It’s a decision that should be clear, except Alex can’t give her up.

Alex and Jenna on the same Swat team both fighting their attraction to each other. When Jenna runs into Alex mistaking him for someone she thinks is following her she must come clean to Alex. Thinking it could possibly be PTSD and not a stalker Alex helps Jenna by investigating the issues. They can no longer hide their attraction to each other when force to live together so Alex could protect Jenna from the stalker. Loved it hard to put down

4.0 out of 5 stars ARC REVIEW A great start to a series
Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2018
Texas SWAT #1, A brand new series from Sidney Bristol does fall into the Aegis World but only by some familial connection. Ransom Texas is experiencing a population boom like much the rest of the DFW area and the once quiet little town of Ransom has worked its way to being city. I really enjoyed this one it has a nice balance between the romance and the suspense. The characters are wonderfully done and beautifully flawed really brings them to life. The active setting I have no problem with I live in the DFW area I know exactly where Ransom is suppose to be I can picture that very easily in my head. I really enjoyed the plot. Jena fears there is one of two things wrong with her, she either is suffering from delayed PTSD from her time as a combat medic or she has a stalker. It was small things at first things moving, then things disappearing, and the strange feeling that someone is watching her. It's gotten to the point that she wakes up in the middle of the night and feeling like someone is in her house. She's losing sleep and it's becoming obvious that something is wrong.

Alex Meyers is the team leader for his SWAT, Jena part of his team not as a member of SWAT but as it's medic. Alex has always been aware of Jena he tries to ignore her but he always knows exactly where she is, he does this because he knows it's against department regulations to date anyone on your squad. Jena has had a thing for Alex since she started working with SWAT, it's easy to flirt and kid with the other guys because it means nothing but the fact that Alex avoids her she thinks he doesn't like her, she's satisfied just naming her vibrator after him. But when Alex catches her mid freak out she confides in him her problem. Alex takes it seriously to the point he offers her his spare room so she doesn't have to home alone. This gives them the opportunity to finally open up to each other about their feelings. This also causes Jena's stalker to escalate and everyone finds out about them and Jena's stalker they are put on administrative leave until it's all resolved. It doesn't matter to Alex he is willing to risk his job just to protect Jena.

The relationship between Alex and Jena gets pretty hot and heavy it moves pretty fast but it's been slowly building for years. At the start Jena is worried about her sanity and the fact that this may all be in her head, but Alex reassures her nothing about this is in her head. Alex has as kept something from Jena not that it's a secret just about everyone in town knows what happen to him and why he moved to Texas from Detroit, Jena didn't come back to her hometown until after the hype died down. But Alex is still afraid to tell her because he's worried she will think differently about him.

Overall, this was a fantastic way to start off a new series. It had some nice intros to the different characters and I look forward to them.

WOW! What an intriguing story. This story is about Alex and Jenna. The story starts out with each other wanting the other but go about it the wrong way. It takes Jenna being stalked to finally have these two being out their attraction to each other. Alex's secret was causing his nightmares until The stalker shows Jenna what Alex was hiding. Jenna was upset because she felt like Alex couldn't trust her enough to let her know. The escalation gets intense when the stalker decides if he can't have Jenna then no one will. Once the threat was neutralized, these two finally find some peace with each other. I am happy these two found their happily ever after. FANTASTIC job Sidney! I would recommend this book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Needs Proofreading 🧐
Reviewed in the United States on September 9, 2022
I read this as part of a bundle in "I'll Be Watching You", and overall it's a good story. Keeps you on your toes, addresses the respect our men in black and blue deserve as well as our military. PTSD is often down played or swept under the rug. So Thank You for your services. This could have been a higher rating, but too many proofreading glitches and it took away from the story. Enjoy 🤓

What a terrific story. Jenna is a marvel. Such a gifted woman. And so burdened by her past that a stalker went under her radar for some time. Then she second guessed herself—afraid no one would believe her. What an authentic character Ms. Bristol created. Jenna is just like every woman. This one is high suspense with action, poignant moments and a terrific romance.

First book in a new series and I loved it. The characters are well drawn, original and believable. The plot is interesting. The balance of action and non-action is good. Not to mention hot sexy times. Can't wait for more.

4.0 out of 5 stars Looking Forward to the Next Book in the Series
Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2018
This is my first time reading anything by this author, but I would definitely pick up something by her in the future. I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review. This book is romantic suspense with Alex, a HOT Alpha SWAT team leader and Jenna, a courageous, independent former army medic who works in conjunction with the SWAT team on missions, as well as working as a paramedic at the local hospital. These two tried to keep their feelings professional around each other, and neither knew the others' feelings, but when Jenna is forced to admit that she might have a stalker all bets are off. Alex will not let anyone harm his girl. But, is the stalker real or just imaginings caused by PTSD? When the incidents become more than can easily be explained away Alex knows they have to involve the police and Jenna agrees b/c she is scared to death. How do you fight against someone you can't see, but who invades your privacy repeatedly and could possibly harm those around you? While those around Jenna are scrambling to figure the puzzle out, will she become a victim after all? You will have to read the book to find out, but I, for one, did not want to put the book down until I finished. Definitely give it a chance!!
