My best friend is happily coupled up with the girl of his dreams and all he asked me to do is help keep her safe. Her and her friend. I can do that. I’m a bodyguard. Protection is what we do. But how the hell do you protect someone like JJ? Loud, argumentative and more sass than sense. I learned a long time ago that protection and romance don’t mix but JJ is a crack in my armor. An argumentative, … An argumentative, beautiful crack in my armor.
And to protect her I might have to break the vow I made years ago.
Book 1 of The Force Duet. Book 2, Enforce, is also available now!

Jonas and JJ are so much fun with their bantering. And it really is foreplay. When they succumb to the inevitable it’s downright explosive!
Her past has come back to haunt her and the strong-willed, sassy JJ we love is reduced to tears. But she’s a fighter and Jonas is going to make him pay.
But he goes after someone dearest to all of the Blake Security men. There will be hell to pay!!
Oh God, the Malones are just bound and determined to kill me! First the Shameless series with all their cliffies and now Force has an even more destined-to-kill-me cliffy than either Shameless or Shameful.
But, even though there’s a cliffhanger, I loved Force just as much as the Shameless series. Jonas is amazing. He’s a tough badass kinda guy like the rest of his crew, and got that whole demons on his back thing going on. He’s got some serious emotional scars to bear, and it’s made him gruff and tough on the outside. Inside, though, he’s just prime for JJ to come along and ease his burden. She’s more than an equal partner for him, with her just as tough, sassy personality and has her own demons thanks to her past. Seeing them fall fast and hard had me cheering for them to hurry up and get to their HEA.
No one does romantic suspense quite like the Malones and Force is a perfect example. Its got their trademark badass alpha paired with an equally strong, (way sassy) heroine, and chemistry that’s hot as hell. Now if only the conclusion would hurry up and appear on my Kindle, sooner rather than later, then I’d be a happy woman!
This book is the first in a duet, the second of which is Enforce, and ties in with the Shameless series. It focuses on Jessica “JJ” Jones (best friend of Lucia) and Jonas Castillo (an employee of Noah’s in his Security business).
JJ is one tough chick! But underneath it all, she is hiding a vulnerable, scared girl. Jonas is a good guy, through and through, but also has secrets in his past. Together, they are like dynamite, waiting to explode. They hide their attraction for each other behind sarcasm and they practically set the room on fire whenever they were around each other. I began to wonder if they were ever going to get together!
This book is full of non stop action, and keeps you guessing, right up until the last sentence. It definitely ends on a cliff hanger! This was an awesome story, and I’m eagerly awaiting Enforce!
