Short and sweet novellas set in the Coastal Hope and Hunt Brothers worlds! If you're looking for something quick to read, then you've found the right place!
I found Jessica’s books withe Coastal books. The characters were so defined I had to find more. Echo being the second of the Hunt Brothers brings love for her writing even further.
Being able read about a family that defines the best dealing with their fears with the help of God is wonderful. Can hardly wait for all the brother’s stories.
Jessica is still on my TBR, but the ordering process is super smooth. Bookfunnel is my favorite direct download app for books, and her orders go through seamlessly! I highly recommend ordering direct from this author if you plan to get her books!
Love the books, very easy to purchase and download to kindle
Can’t wait for the next books in the Iron Tide series. I have read all the Coastal Hope and Hunt Brothers series and started the newest Iron Tide series. They are all so exciting and inspiring, love the different faith stories of each book.
One of the best action-packed Christian books I've read. Jessica Ashley never misses the mark when she writes. Truly, I cannot say enough good things about this book or this author.
Jessica has become one of my must read Christian Fiction Suspense authors in the last couple of years. I love the way she weaves mystery, suspense/danger, great characters and a faith thread into a story I can’t put down. My favorite element of this story was the faith element with Tessa’s journey and Zane’s devotion was so sweet. I can not wait for the rest of this series!
I received a copy of this book from the author and was not required to post a positive review. All thoughts are my own.

Transformation, Redemption, Suspense!
Jessica Ashley writes books with characters that feel like real people. You do not have to suspend disbelief in order to read the story. The characters are not perfect. We meet new characters on their journey where they may experience good and bad times, moments of confidence and insecurity, moments of great faithfulness, as well as dark nights of the soul. I can relate to all of that.
This was Zane’s and Tessa’s story. They fell in love when they were very young, but were forced apart by a cruel situation that changed every plan they had for their future lives, both as a couple an as individuals. This story finds them reunited 18 years after Tessa left Zane at the altar.
The latest chapter in Zane and Tessa’s story unfolded against a backdrop of mystery and suspense, that took several turns with a surprise ending. The author is talented; she was able to tie several story lines together in a way that was fresh and surprising.
Zane is a good man who struggles with the realities of being a soldier, an impossible situation with his boss, and now his conflicted feelings when Tessa reappears unexpectedly in his life. He adoreshis mother and his sister. I really enjoyed those family interactions. His teammates are his brothers who sacrificially support each other.
Tessa struggles with feeling unloved. She has experienced dark times, both in regards to her faith and her life. I see her as a survivor but she sees herself as being unworthy and a burden to everyone. She’s been alone, struggling for most of her life. Putting myself in her story, I understand why she feels the way she does, but it was difficult to read at times.
Honest conversations occur that help clear the air. They don’t necessarily immediately fix the problem, but they allow the characters to at least understand and move forward. The book shows the value of community, faith, relationships, and the bonds that tie us together.
Overall themes of the book are transformation, redemption, and faith. Tessa was transformed from someone who was insecure and hurt and lost to a woman of strength and faith.
Both Zane’s and Tessa’s relationship to each other, and Tessa’s relationship to God was restored and redeemed as they forged new beginnings.
Zane’s faithfulness, despite real hurt and struggle allowed him to embrace a new life with those he loved.
Author, Jessica Ashley has created a community of characters in her books and it was a joy to see characters from previous books making an appearance in this story in a way that was not forced but felt congruent and seamless to the story. It was refreshing to see how the relationships and the bonds of the characters have grown and how they relate to each other.
I am looking forward to the next installment in the Iron Tide Brotherhood series!
Please note, there are scenes of remembered domestic violence in this book, as Tessa was raised by an abusive, alcoholic father. I think the subject was handled carefully and respectfully, but I am noting that as information for those who may have experienced something similar before they pick up the book.

Completely hooked from the first chapter!
This is one of those books where you sit down to read “just a little”… and suddenly hours have passed. Dishes? What dishes?
Ugh! Take me back to Stormwatch Landing, please!
The pacing was perfect—fast, intense action without ever feeling overwhelming, and balanced beautifully with a sweet romance that kept me smiling.
Zane and Tessa’s second-chance story kept pulling me back in. The tension, the history between them, and the way their relationship unfolds made every moment feel earned. I also loved the twists—just when I thought I knew where things were going, the story surprised me in the best way.
If you love action-packed romantic suspense with heart, depth, and characters you genuinely root for, this one is a must-read. I already can’t wait for the next book in the series.

Wow, what an incredible ride! Seal of Honor has it all - chemistry, action and a twist ending I didn't see coming. I appreciate Jessica's ability to weave such a powerful redemption story of God's love into Zane and Tessa's romance. Being the first book in a new series, I am anxiously awaiting the rest to be released and complete this collection. These are the type of books I have multiple copies of - a digital, a paperback for my library and another one to lend. Jessica has done it again!
