The Advocate Series

Author: Teresa Burrell

Book #1 in the series

Sabre Brown is an attorney who works in the juvenile court system. At times she may be representing a parent and at other times she represents a child. In this case she is representing a very mature nine-year old; Sabre needs to determine whether or not it is safe to allow the child to return to the care of her father. On the surface the father appears decent and responsible but the further Sabre digs into his past the more challenging her decision becomes.

I’m glad I enjoyed this book because I have three more of her books on my Kindle. I must have got them at a very good price (or free) for me to have so many in the same series.

Book #2 in the series

Sabre is back with all her colleagues – Bob, another lawyer, and JP, her investigator. Sabre is handling two cases in this book. She is defending a friend on a murder charge, as well as representing two children who have been raised in an extremely prejudiced family. Sabre also has a love interest in this book.

I enjoyed the story but felt there was just too much going on. The case of the children was practically ignored and the outcome she got for them came very quickly and without much explanation. It will be awhile before I pick up Book 4 in the series.

Book #4 in the series

It was a bit like meeting old friends as I read this one. There is a lot going on in the lives of the two children Sabre is representing. And amid all the drama of their lives, Sabre’s friend Bob has been arrested for the murder of the children’s father. It was always noted that JP, her investigator, was Texan but I didn’t like all the “JP-isms” that he came out with (new to this book).

I don’t think I missed much by skipping Book 3 and I won’t be looking for any more from this series.
