When materials engineer Zoey Butler lands her dream job at Future State Energy, she believes her research in renewable energy will make headlines. Unfortunately for her, she’s right. Zoey is working on her latest experiment when FBI Special Agent Alexis Thompson and her K-9 partner, Waffle, raid Future State and arrest the head of the development for fraud. Zoey helps the FBI find answers in the aftermath, but she soon finds herself jobless and unemployable. Desperate and out of options, she reaches out to Alexis, the one person who knows Zoey was duped like everyone else.

Liam Graham is an FBI special agent and instructor at Riverbend K-9 Academy. When Alexis brings in a new recruit with an unusual background, Liam pairs her up with Tasha, a dog in need of a handler to stay in their competitive program. Zoey is thrilled to put her past behind her and give the mischievous rescue dog her own second chance. However, shortly after she arrives, the FBI realizes the Future State case is far from closed. And Zoey may be the key to solving it.

Zoey offers to go back to Future State to help the FBI end things once and for all. Only this time, she’ll have Liam and Tasha for backup. But, the problems at Future State are more explosive than any of them suspect.

    It’s my first fiction book. My first language is Spanish and I read the Bible and I also enjoy science stuff. But I wanted to practice my English reading something entertaining. Love it! It has no profanities, no drugs or sex, it’s just what I wanted. I’m looking forward to reading the others in the series!

    I expected more action and intrigue. For my taste, this book was a little slow burn on the action side and lacked level of action I need to keep me interested.
  • Great book

    Nice story line different from so many, making it very entertaining. It appeared to be well researched with only one or two missing facts. Well worth the time to read

    I really liked this story in a very unique setting. The romance was just right for the circumstances. As a dog owner their stories along with the humans were fun characters. I look forward to reading the next one in this series!

    Zoey Butler loses her dream job at Future State Energy, after they were raided by the FBI. Unable to find another job after that embarrassment because that was her only job exposure experience. Zoey has an idea to ask the FBI to give her a job cause she is desperate and fortunate enough they take her up on that. She gets flown out to join with the FBI K-9 academy. 
 Liam Graham is an FBI special agent and instructor at Riverbend K-9 Academy. Liam pairs Zoey up with Tasha, a dog in need of a handler to stay in their competitive program. Zoey is thrilled to put her past behind her and give the mischievous rescue dog her own second chance. However, shortly after she arrives, the FBI realizes the Future State case is far from closed. And Zoey may be the key to solving it.
 Zoey offers to go back in to help the FBI end things once and for all. Only this time, she’ll have Liam and Tasha for backup. But, the problems at Future State are more explosive than any of them suspect. The first thing to mention is that there’s isn’t a lot of cozy mystery hero’s who works in STEM. I was truly happy to have read this book, especially with the start of a new series which features a materials engineer. The second thing would be that Zoey is a relatable, clever and overall lovely character. I was fascinated by her competence and her fortitude as she was expertly clever. Thirdly, would be writer’s background grows this book to an even more interesting level. I can appreciated the details and that make it sophisticated but not overly much so. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series, I have it loaded in my kindle now. I recommend this to everyone! Dog lovers, cozy readers, stem reader, even budding romance readers???. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
