Romance Suspense

Chuck Tanaka is sure his edge in the military is gone; being captured and brutally tortured has a way of taking one's confidence and destroying the larger than life feeling. Chuck's commander has other ideas regarding Chuck's ability to perform. Reluctantly Chuck goes undercover as a Black Jack dealer on a pleasure cruise ship to gain information on a possible terrorist cell by using Jolynn Taylor, the daughter of the mob boss/owner, as a mark. Chuck doesn't take in to account the fiery redhead and the package she represents until it's too late. With danger lurking around every corner, keeping Jolynn safe means keeping her close and risking his cover. Regardless, Chuck has a job to do, but what will is cost him this time? Hopefully, Chuck can stay on point and keep his libido and heart locked firmly away.

Jolynn Taylor has spent most of her adult life staying away from her mob boss father and his shady dealings, but when he falls ill, Jolynn has no choice but to return to her father's turf, a pleasure cruise ship, meant for fun and sun. Jolynn is immediately attracted to Charles Tomas, a new Black Jack dealer; his sweet smile and endearing dimples attract her like no other man has is quite some time. Just this once Jolynn wants to let her guard down and throw caution to the wind and enjoy herself and the hunky Black Jack dealer but unfortunately it is never meant to be. An attempt on her life and a betrayal that runs too deep scares her enough to run. Thankfully a very unlikely protector helps Jolynn stay safe but can she keep her heart safe as well?

Catherine Mann's 4th Dark Ops book, PROTECTOR takes you on an exciting wild ride through the Italian country side while burning up the pages with enough chemistry to start a forest fire. Very Hot! Very Fun!
