Rescuing You: Secrets and Spies in Shadow Cove (The Wright Heroes of Maine Book 2) Kindle Edition

A heart-pounding tale of danger and devotion, the riveting second installment of the Wright Heroes of Maine series by a USA Today bestselling author.

CIA agent Michael Wright's world crumbles when his girlfriend, Leila, is snatched off the street and later seen in the grasp of a terrorist he’s been tracking, Michael blames himself. Keeping his identity secret from her clearly didn’t protect her. Now he must defy the Agency and fly to Iraq to rescue her.

Leila Amato escaped Iraq a decade earlier, only returning in her worst nightmares. But those nightmares have come true when she finds herself captive and all alone, or so she thought until she sees her identical twin sister.

Michael tracks Leila to a desert compound, but his rescue mission goes awry when he discovers her sister needs to escape as well. His detailed strategy can only ensure one woman’s safety. Now they’re on the run, trying to get out of the country before their enemies track them down.

But Leila’s kidnapping is only one small part of a larger plot—one that endangers thousands of lives—and now he doesn’t know who he can trust. Not even the woman who’s stolen his heart. A woman who’s been keeping secrets of her own…

A high-stakes international chase full of romantic suspense, spies, and a ticking time bomb that will keep you reading all night long.

About the Author

Robin Patchen is a USA Today bestselling and award-winning author of Christian romantic suspense. She grew up in a small town in New Hampshire, the setting of her Nutfield Saga books, and then headed to Boston to earn a journalism degree. After college, working in marketing and public relations, she discovered how much she loathed the nine-to-five ball and chain. After relocating to the Southwest, she started writing her first novel while she homeschooled her three children. The novel was dreadful, but her passion for storytelling didn't wane. Thankfully, as her children grew, so did her writing ability. Now that her kids are adults, she has more time to play with the lives of fictional heroes and heroines, wreaking havoc and working magic to give her characters happy endings. When she's not writing, she's editing or reading, proving that most of her life revolves around the twenty-six letters of the alphabet.

“She was keeping secrets, but he was too. And he wasn’t ready to reveal his.”

Honestly, I fell in love with one of Robin Patchen’s books about another Wright brother, so I knew I had to read the stories of the other brothers as they are launched in this series, The Wright Brothers of Maine. Rescuing You is the second book of the series, and features the story of Michael and Leila. Michael, an undercover CIA agent in Germany, is horrified to find his girlfriend has been kidnapped by Vortex, the terrorist he is trailing.

Leila is a native Arab who left Islam to turn to Jesus. Her captors would not treat her well for defecting from the faith, their perception of a Middle Eastern woman’s role, or her first escape into Germany. Michael chomps at the bit when histeam leader, Brock, asks him to remove himself from the situation and let the team handle it.

Explosions, daring escapes, and shoot-outs up the suspense ante. Ruthless, strategic terrorists and a sick twin complicate matters. As does the fact that Michael does not stand down as told, nor does Leila like to be given commands without knowing ‘why.’

Secrets. This novel is all about secrets and trust. Both Michael and Leila hold dangerous secrets, and both need to learn to trust God and other people if they are to survive. There were a few times each I wanted to sit Michael and Leila down and “straighten them out, but good!”

Rescuing You is a novel that will also have you thinking about what some immigrants are willing to endure to reach our shores. By the end of the book, you’ll be looking to tie up a few loose ends and read more of the Wright brothers’ stories, starting with Bryan’s adventures in Finding You.

I received a copy of the book from Celebrate Lit. I also bought my own ecopy. No positive review was required, and all opinions are my own.

Notable Quotables:

“But in his arrogance—and his fear—he’d gone it alone. As he so often did. And because of that, he’d lost…everything.”

“Hope seemed lost, but God was a God of hope, wasn’t He?”

I enjoyed reading the rescue of the two sisters. I really liked seeing God in this Christian fiction novel. I like her books because she gives God the grace in her novels. I have been reading too many Christian fiction novels that God only gets a cameo appearance. What is the point? It really isn't a "Christian" fiction novel. It is only a fiction novel that is clean without the inappropriate things in it. Nothing more.

This is a great book of international suspense and danger with a side of romance. When CIA agent Michael Wright discovers his girlfriend has been abducted, he is afraid he is the cause. He is placed on leave and ordered to stand down from locating her. Leila left her country and family years ago so she would not be subjected to the horrors done to the Christian people in that country. Her father’s friend catches up to her and threatens her sister would suffer if she does not return to Iraq. Finding out her father has promised her hand in marriage to a horrible man she abhors makes her even more anxious to escape. Be sure to read this story and follow along as Michael tries to rescue Leila and her sister, Jasamine from certain horrors and quite possibly, death.

"Leila had to face it. No one was coming for her."

Leila Amato could hardly process how her life had changed in just a few short hours. Being held captive within the heavily guarded walls of a remote Iraqi compound was a far cry from enjoying a romantic evening with a tall, dark, and handsome salesman on the hillsides of Munich, Germany.

"The woman Michael Wright had given his heart to was gone. Just . . . gone."

Pulling all his strings as a CIA operative did not allow him permission to find Leila, in fact those resources were never designed for personal missions, but that didn't mean he was going to let her disappear either. The plan Michael did come up with was pretty sketchy and full of potential hiccups, but nothing prepared him for the overall picture or the fact that he would be rescuing two women, not just one.

What an amazing story! Fast-paced, heart-racing scenarios coupled with honest, soul-searching conversations, paired with enough romantic chemistry to set off several massive explosions. Leila's feisty independence absolutely tested Michael's patience, . . . . . my goodness, the man was trying to rescue her at the cost of his own life, . . . . but then again, Leila had no true idea of who he really was. And ironically, he didn't really know who she was either.

"He will cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness will be your shield and rampart." - Psalm 91.

There is only one true Rescuer in this story and Leila and Michael both know Who that is.

5.0 out of 5 stars An awesome inspirational romantic suspense!
Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2024

Robin Patchen can be depended upon to write a romantic suspense with Christian elements. Regarding Rescuing You: Secrets and Spies in Shadow Cove (The Wright Heroes of Maine #2), she knocked it out of the park. There are a lot of moving parts in this book (i.e. people, places and cultures).
Those parts require much detail to be ingested by the reader so in my case, I couldn't read at my normal speed. Sometimes I'm guilty of reading the high points in a cookie cutter story layout. Man meets woman; woman in distress; man rushes in on a white horse and saves the day; HEA. Blah blah blah.
NOT true when you pick up a Robin Patchen novel. There is depth to her stories. The characters are well-developed. The suspense takes you on a white-knuckle ride. In Rescuing You, the heroine is from a mideastern culture. The author wrote in such detail that she held my interest without drowning me in the superfluous.
5 outstanding stars!

I should know better. I really should. Starting a Robin Patchen novel at 11pm when I have a flight the next morning is not a good idea! I managed to put the book down so I got enough sleep, then read it all through my flight, and finished it after I arrived home. I love her novels. The suspense is thrilling, the tension is perfect, the romance is tender, the violence is realistic enough without dominating the story, the outcome is just right every time.

This story continues the Wright Heroes of Maine series and is an excellent follow up to the first book. We're following Michael's story, rescuing his beautiful heroine, Leila, AND her identical twin sister, Jasmine, from behind the very closed doors of Iran. What a ride! I thoroughly loved this novel and I'm very much looking forward to the next one being released.

This book grabbed me from the first page and I didn’t want to put it down! I enjoyed watching the main characters grow in their faith and understanding of themselves. There were lots of challenges to overcome and quite a bit of shooting, entwined with romance and themes of trust and hope. Although not a cliffhanger, some aspects of the storyline will continue to develop in future releases. So excited for the next book!

What an action-packed read. Never a dull moment. Lots of tension and suspicion. Makes me wonder how keeps happening. I like how they all learn to trust and be more open with those closest to them. A good (near) ending, as it seems to continue in the next book. Definitely an exciting read.
