Ransom

Written by Laramie Briscoe

Narrated by Ariel Royce and Christopher Rourke

Laurel Springs, AL is about to be hotter than a mid-August thunderstorm. 

When the Moonshine Task Force is absorbed into a new entity, Laurel Springs Emergency Response Team (LSERT) new faces come to town, new love is born, old love is found again, and there’s a plethora of drama and romance happening all over the tri-county area. LSERT puts police, firefighters, nurses, doctors, K-9 handlers, and EMT’s all in harm’s way as they work to keep the area safe from any threat. 

Emotions run high, passions ignite. 

Come with me, back to Laurel Springs, in what's sure to be a wild ride!

Ransom Thompson

For years I’ve wanted two things - to be a member of the Moonshine Task Force and to be the man Stella Kepler can’t live without.

One out of two isn’t bad, or so I tell myself. Being the only K-9 handler for The MTF presents its own share of obstacles, but me and Rambo? We make it work. Life is status quo, until I’m called in to help with what appears to be a hostage situation and Stella is right in the middle of it.

This is my one chance, and I’m not going to blow it.

Stella Kepler

When I’m stuck in an examination room holding a hurt woman and a man with a gun, I do the only thing I can. I sneak out, call 911 and hope help comes quickly. It does.

In the form of Ransom Thompson.

He and I have known each other since we were babies. Our mother’s are friends, our dad’s work together, and we’ve always been friends.

Only, the last few months I’ve started to notice things. How mature he is, how alpha he can be, the chiseled six-pack, and the abundance of ink spreading across his body. 

When I offer to cook him dinner for saving me, neither one of us know how that one moment will change the course of the rest of our lives.

Stella and Ransom have a steamy, hot-headed relationship but they both have a great family unit to help keep their minds focused on what's important. It was lovely seeing the OG characters and seeing how they all navigate their relationships now, 20 years on. Stella and Ransom have a very similar relationship to their own parents. It was funny seeing Ransom having to work with Renegade and the way his demeanour changed.

There was a realistic relationship between mother and daughter, they seemed to overshare a lot and Stella seemed to do a lot of things in front of her parents that were inappropriate.

I would have loved to have seen more depth in their relationship instead of quick insta-love off the bat. There didn't seem to be much development since they were already childhood friends. I'm eager to see where the rest of the series goes, especially with Nick's storyline.
