PROMISE TO DEFEND by Diana Gardin is the second book in the
Rescue Ops series and can easily
be read as a standalone
novel. I did not read the first book but I found this book
has a
quick recap at the beginning that will catch you up to speed. I
did find this book to be a quick read and I read it in one
sitting. This book is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat
with suspense.
Gardin's writing style is flawless as she weaves
this story together with intriguing characters, action-packed
suspense, and a touch of steamy romantic chemistry that is sure
to warm you up on even the coldest of nights. I enjoyed reading
the stubbornness and swoon worthy dialogue the two main
characters share as they struggle to stay safe all while
fighting feelings that are beyond their control. Both main
characters have a past that still haunts them, making their
current situation even more dramatic. Ronin is the picture
perfect sexy man who is confident and knows exactly what he
wants. He will stop at nothing if he is determined. After his
wife was murdered he feels he has nothing to lose. Olive is the
quintessential stubborn woman that refuses to rely or depend on
anyone but herself. Well, that is until Ronin comes into the
picture.
As you read from page to page you will not know what
to expect next with each page holding a combination of suspense
and romance. A perfect book for anyone who loves a romantic
suspense novel that is sure to leave you wanting more. I cannot
wait to read the next book in this series and do plan on
reading the first one.
The next sexy and suspenseful standalone in the Rescue
Ops series.
By saving her, he might just save himself...
I'm broken. I have been for seven years. Ever since my wife
was murdered while I was deployed overseas. I was protecting
our country, but I should have been protecting her. I
haven't looked at another woman since--but then Olive
Alexander crossed my path. She stirs up feelings I thought
were long dead. So when her house is ransacked after she
receives a threatening message, I know I have to step in and
keep her safe. I failed my wife, but I won't fail Olive.
Unfortunately, Olive isn't exactly ready to accept my help...
With her sexy-as-sin pencil skirts and sleek ponytails,
Olive clearly doesn't let anything--or anyone--mess
up her perfectly ordered life. But years spent working as a
special ops soldier has taught me how to read people... and
I know Olive is hiding something. When my covert mission for
Night Eagle Security collides with Olive's past, I'll have
to get her to open up--or risk losing her. And losing Olive
is not an option. If she's in danger, I'll defend
her...even if it costs me my life.
