This is book 4 in the Callahan Confidential series. I have read all the books in this series and love them all, however if this is your first book to read in this series you will have no problem keeping up.
Matt Callahan is a handsome police K-9 officer. When Lacy Germaine is in desperate need of his help, he does all he can to keep her safe no matter what odds may be against her.
Lacy can't believe how her life is turned upside down. Will she be able to put aside her trust issues and trust this handsome K-9 cop, even though she knows not all police can be trusted.
I loved the action, suspense, mystery and romance in this book. The Callahan family have a great love and loyalty to each other. I look forward to hearing more from this series.

Shattered Lullaby by Laura Scott. This is the fourth book in the Callahan Confidential series. It can be read alone however. Matt is a K9 cop and Duchess is his partner. If you have been reading the series he is Maddy’s twin brother. The book immediately starts with action packed scenes. Lacy is on the run with her nephew, 3 month old Rory. She was at her sister’s house when she over hears her sister and husband fighting and shots go off. Matt and Duchess stop to assist them. The complication is that Lacy is that her brother in law is a police officer and she is not sure who she can trust.
Lacy and Matt make a good couple and team. There are some very cute scenes with the baby Rory. I thought Matt had an interesting back story that made him more likeable and a good fit for Lacy and Rory.
I felt it was a little too early for the ‘I love you’s’ but otherwise the relationship flowed well.
Fans of the series will be thrilled when Matt’s brothers help with the case.
I received this book from Netgalley. I was not required to write a positive review.

The riveting action and chilling tension from the very start of the story carries through the tale and kept me on the edge, feeling as fidgeted and frustrated as the characters as the clues were not coming in, the potentially deadly attacks continued no matter where they were hiding, and time was running out to stay in hiding. Talk about living in the moment with the characters - truly an intense reading experience.
I have enjoyed the Callahan mini-series, the family that pulls together when the need arises, who always has each other back, and are ready to banter and tease as fast as protect. All the stories have been stand-alone novels even though the siblings have had roles in each of the stories.
Matt Callahan might be the youngest of the brothers, but he is no less capable, smart, and brave like the rest of them. His relationship with his K-9 partner tells so much about the kind of man he is, loving, caring, protective, that I immediately liked him. Matt's faith in God is unwavering, he trust's God's guidance and protection even as he faces the life and death moments while performing his job.
Lacy Germaine is a brave woman. I can't imagine the situation she finds her self in, yet she acts smartly and unselfishly, she puts the little nephew and his safety first and is willing to do anything to protect him, to provide for him, and take care of him in this dire situation they find themselves in. Lacy had never learned to pray or trust in the Lord, yet by Matt's example and guidance, she learns about personal faith in God and learns to pray both in need and in gratitude.
I loved Lacy and Matt and the connection they had. With the little nephew and the k-9 partner, the four of them made an instant little family unit, a team that obviously cared for each other, and were there for each other. The attraction between Matt and Lacy was palpable, and the way the romance part was dealt with, given time for the feelings to mature and grow, was just brilliantly, naturally done.
With intriguing, edge action and suspense, examples of faith in God both in good and bad times learning to trust in His guidance, mixed with sweet and tender romance, and a loving, rambunctious family, the story kept me mesmerized and captivated while I was completely absorbed in the tale. A great addition to the series!
