Publisher's summary

Can broken be beautiful?

Ryker McCabe. Former Special Forces. Survived 15 months in an Afghan prison, tortured within an inch of his life. His scars - and his fears - keep him alone. Disconnected from the world. From his team. From any hope of redemption.

Until he meets her.

Wren Kane. Hacker extraordinaire. Desperately searching for her brother. When police find his body in a drug den, she knows there's more to his death than an overdose. He'd promised he was clean. And then, she finds the message he left her.

Wren's prepared to go it alone. Until she runs right into Ryker. He's the biggest, baddest man she's ever seen. And he's willing to risk his life to fulfill her brother's dying wish. But how can she trust him when he won't let her in?

When danger comes for Wren, Ryker jumps into action. No one hurts his little bird. Except maybe him. Because if he can't share his heart, he could lose her forever.

On His Six is a standalone, slow burn, dark military romance with several potential triggering scenes, including drug use and the brief threat of sexual violence.

All of the books in the Away From Keyboard series are standalone romances featuring a different couple, but past couples and characters do occasionally play active roles in future books.

Good

On His Six was a good book. I liked the story of Ryker, this wounded and scarred soldier who went through hell and miraculously survived, and Wren, a hacker genius on an impossible mission to fulfill a promise to her late brother. While working together Wren found the key to Ryker's blackened heart and proved that after all he'd been through, he still had a soul.
I liked the writing, it was really entertaining. My only complaint is there were a few references to previous missions - I assume were the storylines in the previous two books - what seemed to have made big impacts on some of the characters' lives but were never elaborated. As I considered this story a standalone I would have liked a few additional sentences there to be able to understand what situations the characters were referring to. Other than that I really enjoyed Wren and Ryker's story.

Out of the two narrators I liked Aiden Snow's parts better. I liked how he brought Ryker's character to life. His female voice was also very good. His speech was a lot clearer, more to my liking. Grace Grant's narration wasn't my favorite. She captured Wren's anxiety in her narration but still, I had a hard time warming up to her way of speaking. It was more slurred and a little less understandable. I'm not sure if it was a recording issue or she has such heavily veiled voice.

His little bird... Sweet!

Aiden Snow playing Ryker, all alpha, masculine and dangerous was right on target for me. That deep voice gives me goosebumps....and I love it!
I also love it when the author recognizes when they have the right narrators for a series.
This is another Special Ops book with intrigue, mystery, topped off with some romance.
Ryker was definitely a badass dude with demons and the story tells us why. He dealt with some serious stuff.
I do love listening to Patricia Eddy's books especially when Aiden is narrating.
Ryker, dealing with his fears and scars and finally finding that balance he needed and his little bird made for a decent story.
Ryker was in the previous book "In Her Sights" (Aiden was excellent in that one too) but this one is all about Ryker!! Explains his attitudes from the other book. I can't use words like angst or epic because that's not the case here but I did enjoy it and I'm just a big Aiden Snow fan so I am a little biased too.

Gripping from the opening lines

Wow - this is my first book by this author and it will not be my last. From the opening gut wrenching lines right up to the very end this story had me on the edge of my seat. It is filled with romance, suspense and heart wrenching angst. Ryker and Wren need to go from hell back to reality in order to find love in the end. Perfect narration and I cannot wait for more in this series.

Exciting story with compelling characters

The two main characters for this story are Ryker and Wren. Wren works for Dax, the only other soldier who lived through the torture Ryker did. (the story starts with a look into the horror Ryker had to go through during his time as a POW- oof, that was tough!)

This is the third in the series and there are a few details that I assume were discussed in prior books so may be best to read in order (I received an audiobook for this book so I hadn’t read the prior books but still had no trouble following the line of this story)

Overall, this story was exciting, with a good mix of action, suspense and romance. The characters are damaged but still try to do good. They have a hard time trusting but eventually, find that trusting and believing in one another is the path to their salvation. Ryker, especially, has a hard time trusting people, including those on his team but of course, through the course of the book, realizes that this trust makes him a better, stronger person. I really liked Wren’s character because she suffers from anxiety and panic attacks but rises above those to help as she can (they were trying to save some people from the same mobsters who killed her brother). There is a fair bit of violence, engaging in drugs and scenes/mentions of sexual violence. But this was an interesting and compelling story and I look forward to reading more from this author.

Aidan Snow is PERFECT for the male character. He also has a fantastic ability to go raspy as Ryker and smooth for Wren. He is a great narrator. Grace Grant did well as well but I think she tries a little too hard trying to play a male character so it doesn't sound very realistic.

This is my first book of this author, definitely looking forward to reading others!
I received this book from Audiobook Obsession and this is my honest review. #AudiobookObsessionReviewer

Beautifully Broken...... Ryker and Wren

This book is definitely worth the credit, it has action, mystery, suspense and retribution. Aiden Snow is so Amazing as the narrator. I’ve read the next book in the series as it’s Dax’S book and this series does not disappoint. However when they relive their time in captivity, that part is not for the faint of heart.

Love this series!!! Especially books 2-6

I cannot say enough good things about this series!! I am on my third run though in 5 months. I have never seen PTSD written quite like this series and it is fantastic!!
Why is Dax yelling Sit Stat at Ry one of the sexiest things ever? Such a small “insignificant” thing but dang!

Ryker💘Wren! Great Story & Audible Listen🎧

Wow, this is one great suspenseful romance. It is well written and well told, it grabbed not only my attention but my heart right from the start. The original storylines are interesting, some are deep, others are intense and took me to the edge of my seat. The characters are complex and well developed. My heart went out to Ryker as soon as I learned what he went thru. The author’s descriptive telling of his hell was realistic and heart wrenching. It is not a wonder Ryker is who he is, broken, not worthy of anything good and unable to let anyone in. Ryker has unresolved issues with Dax, the only surviving member of his team. He heads to Chicago with hopes of setting things straight with him. When Wren, a computer geek/hacker who works for Dax’s company runs in to Ryker again, they start to talk and she tells him she is looking for help to solve brother’s death, which she refuses to believe was an accident. The investigation uncovers a crime ring across the world. I loved these two together, they were so good for each other, she got thru the barrier around his heart and started to humanize him and he grounded her and curbed her anxiety. They worked well together too, he was a bad ass special forces op, she behind the scenes until all goes FUBAR. This is an action packed story, plenty of drama, twists, mystery, suspense and a nice build up to a great romance. Patricia D. Eddy, thank you for this great story and the emotional rollercoaster ride.

I listened to the Audible edition, Aiden Snow and Grace Grant are fantastic narrators and voice performers. They brought these characters to life, giving each their own voice and personality, as well as heart and attitude. I loved Aiden Snow’s take on Ryker, alpha badass, Grace Grant’s take on Wren was great too. The accents covered were great too. They are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for this great listen🎧
