I’ve been waiting for Erik and Shayla’s story since reading the first book of this series and the mystery between revolving their one night stand and how Erik was so hooked up on Shayla’s memory and then she starts working where he works, she ignores him and he can’t stop looking for ways to interact with her, so I had an incline that their story was going to be next and I’m glad I was right 🙂
These two have crazy chemistry and are both strong, especially Shayla. She has an adorable son, Grant and is very protective of him, so obviously she’s hesitant to start anything with Erik. I understood her perspective of starting a relationship especially of what she went through with her ex, who was abusive to her, but Erik, little by little, penetrated through the steel walls that surround her heart and she gives in to him and his love <3
I loved how Erik was with Shayla's son, Grant 🙂 I think that's definitely one of the moments I fell in love with his character because even though he was definitely a man-whore before Shayla and had this sort of facade in front of everyone, he let that all go with Shayla and her son and it was heartwarming to see them, slowly becoming a family <3
Of course, before these two have their happily ever after, they have to go through a series of obstacles and events in the form of several past hook-ups of Erik's and Shayla's ex rearing his head to cause trouble but luckily these two have great friends, some unsuspecting ally to their side and their love to overcome it all and they did 🙂
I loved the epilogue so much <3 <3 Erik and Shayla made a beautiful couple with a beautiful family <3
We also get a teaser into what is going to be Jack's upcoming story (He's Daisy's dad, the heroine from book one, Security Breach) and I can't wait to read this one too 😉
Shayla is a single mother who is working temporary jobs hoping to find a permanent position. She agrees to be set up on a blind date. She meets Erik at the restaurant and thinks that he is arrogant and a big flirt. However, she does tell off the server who is shamelessly flirting with Erik since she is on a date with him. The night ends up with Shayla and Erik getting hot and heavy in a hotel room. Shayla leaves the next morning before Erik wakes up thinking she’ll never see him again.
Shayla is shocked when she sees Erik again at her new job subbing for her friend Carrie, who had set them up, at Rogue Security. Erik hasn’t been able to get Shayla out of his mind since their date so he is glad to see her. However, Shayla really doesn’t want to have a relationship with Erik so she turns him down. Erik is persistent and wears Shayla down to go out with him since they both know that there’s something happening between them.
Shayla came from an abusive relationship so she is very hesitant to get into another relationship. However, when her past comes back to threaten her, Erik and the entire Rogue Security team are there to help Shayla. Shayla can’t believe that she has all these people in her life that cares about her. She and Erik work through her issues and guilt and decide to give their relationship a go!
This is a great story about a woman who has been hurt in the past who does find her happily ever after with a great guy but also some great friends who really cares about her and her son!
I have to say this book was so amazing and for some it may be a little hard to read and Evan does stress that there may be triggers as it touches on domestic abuse and a woman who had the courage to get out for her & her son.
Shayla & her son Grant aka Grunt will just melt your heart and you’ll be cheering them on as they put their lives back together and carve out a lil nook for themselves.
Erik is big flirt who goes after what he wants and gets it, because he is a player and who is about to get played when he goes on a blind date with Shayla she’s not his type, but there’s just something about her that draws him in and soon she’s under his skin and his protection, because he want’s more. Oh holy hell this book was so damn good I didn’t want it to ever end I couldn’t stop reading it. I most definitely would recommend this book.
This is my unbiased opinion and my review.
Shayla has had a rough life, her ex husband beat her pretty bad so she had him put in jail but not soon enough to stop her three year old son Grant from seeing it. Shayla gets a job recommendation from a friend of hers and fixed up on a date she figured it’s time she got to live a little because it’s been two years since she did anything. When Shayla meets her blind date Eric she knows right away she is out of his league but she didn’t think he would flirt right in front of her.
When Eric meets Shayla he is surprised someone thought they would be perfect for each other because she is the complete opposite. What Eric doesn’t plan on is how Shayla shot down the waitress who was hitting on him or the way she jumped on him when they left the restaurant. Both of them keep thinking about the other so when Shayla becomes the new employee at Rogue Security they couldn’t be happier, the only problem is that Shayla isn’t ready to share her past just yet.
As Shayla and Eric get closer so does the danger she has yet to share with him but she better start talking before the danger takes everything away from them. I loved this story and how wrapped up in their lives you become and how tough Shayla was when she needed to be no matter what.
First I have to say I love how this book was written with the timeline overlapping book one.
As for the story….it was great. I loved seeing Erik grow into the man he was meant to be. Let’s face it, if you judged the man by the first date he would never make it in book-boyfriend world. He’s my kind of guy all alpha when he needed to be but was great in showing his gentler side with Gretchen and Grunt. Shayla was doing the best she could and actually doing a pretty darn good job. When she agreed to the blind date, she just wanted to “dust off some cobwebs”. When the two see each other again you just know there is going to be some push/pull and the more we learn of Shayla’s life, the more we can understand why.
This was a great read and I loved all of the characters – even the secondary ones.
Could Erik be any more swoon worthy?? He’s hella sexy and very alpha. Nothing hotter than a redeemable jack ass who turns you to mush when they are being the sweetest when it comes to kids. Talk about ovary explosion! I’m such a sucker for single parent books and False Security didn’t disappoint in the least with Shayla, the single mom of 5 year old Grant. I loved their story from beginning to end. I couldn’t get enough of them and the rest of the Rogue Security team.
Both of these characters had great chemistry and just as amazing individually. Shayla was such a strong heroine that definitely gave Erik the good kick in the ass he needed. And let’s not leave little Grunt out. You just can’t help but fall in love with him. You’ll want to jump in the book and squeeze that little boy. The whole crew is just amazing and will want you being part of the team as well.
False Security is book #2 in the Rogue Security Series. It can be read as a complete standalone but recommend to read Security Breach #1 as the characters are interconnected. Amazingly written in dual POV with its own HEA with the perfect epilogue. Not one you want to skip out on.
My first impression of Erik when I met him in book one was…player! He oozes confidence and sex appeal and the women flock to him like bees to honey!! To be honest, he is one hot dude!
So, Carrie talks Shayla into a blind date with Erik and to say she is less than impressed with him would be an understatement but there is chemistry there. After a hot night together, she disappears and he can’t stop thinking about her.
When she turns up at the office to work, both are surprised to see the other. Erik is determined to change her impression of him. It’s so beautiful watching their friendship and attraction grow and then when you see Erik with Gretchen and Grant?! My heart!
But danger is lurking, can Erik and his team keep Shayla and Grant safe?
Loved this book!
I really liked this book and would recommend it, but I would tell people about a few things before they read it. I didn’t like Shayla’s possessiveness on their first date. She had no intention of this man being anything other than a one night stand so it seemed really out of place. At one point Shayla was attacked in an elevator and they said they had no cause for her to get a protection order. However the attack was on camera. That’s how they knew she was in danger. That didn’t make sense and really bothered me. There were only minor details I didn’t like. Overall I like it, and it included a flash forward epilogue. I love those.
This is the second book in the Rogue Security and Investigation series. It is a standalone, so you don’t have to read book one first.
This is a good read. It kept my attention for the most part. I did find myself skimming some of the sex scenes, they were a little repetitive and didn’t always progress the story line.
I liked the characters.
Shayla is a great mom.
Erik is a great guy, especially once you get past how he acted on his blind date with Shayla.
Like the previous book, the bad guy was pretty obvious to figure out who it was.
Overall, I give this one a 3.5
Book 2 of the series
I really enjoyed this second book in the Rogue Security and Investigations book.
This book we already had a clue about after reading book 1. I really liked the characters, but some of the story played out very slow and Erik’s progression from playboy to family man was hard to believe because there wasn’t enough detail to support his progression and growth. Otherwise good story.
Loved it so much!
Even though Erik was cocky (some might call him something else) but I loved it.
Erik and Shayla meet on a blind date that turned in a one night stand.
Imagine their surprise a few days later that they would be working together.
They both can’t forget their night together and very much attracted to each other.
But Shayla comes from an abusive marriage and doesn’t trust much.
Loved the slowly building relationship between Erik and Grant (Grunt).
Good storyline and loved the suspense and that Erik was so protective.
Can’t wait for the next book. Jack’s book!!
False Security is the second book in the Rogue Security Series. I believe it can be read as a stand alone HOWEVER, there are scenes in this book that intersect with book 1. I think it would be more enjoyable if read in order. Not necessary, just a suggestion.
This is the story of a woman who is trying to start her life over. She is strong and independent and standing on her own two feet. She meets a guy who is kind and alpha and sweet and hot and ummm a fantastic big brother to his little sister.
It’s a fast moving story with well developed characters and a very clear beginning, middle and end. I read this from cover to cover in one sitting.
I absolutely recommend anything that this author writes.
I didn’t want Erik and Shayla’s story to end! These two have dealt with heartbreaks in their pasts and will do everything possible to protect the ones they love. I loved Shayla’s determination and tell it like it is attitude. Erik wasn’t expecting this sassy lady to turn his world upside down. Seeing this alpha male go from being a womanizer to a committed man and father figure will have your ovaries exploding!!
My first book by Evan Grace and I can officially say I’m a fan! I loved so much about False Security. From romance that swept me off my feet to heartwarming moments with friends and family I couldn’t get enough! I think the world knows by now I’m a total sucker for single parents. But I’m an even bigger one for men like Erik.
This giant of a man checked alllllll my boxes!
Cocky alpha
Secretly a great big teddy bear
Sweetness that brings forth all kinds of swoon
HOT
Yes please! Gimmie some more Erik! Even not making the greatest first impression this man still managed to melt my heart quicker than I could blink. I loved every thing about him and Shayla together! Shayla is a sweetheart of a single mom still recovering from the abuse she endured at the hands of her ex. Erik’s sweet and gentle love, along with that of his family, helped heal not only Shayla’s heart but that of her adorable son too. Mixed in with a bit of nail biting suspense it made for a book I could not put down!
Evan Grace always, always, knocks it out the park. Yet again she gives us another great book in her Rogue Security Series. Each couple just keeps getting better and better!!
I absolutely loved Erik and Shayla and the way their storyline seemed to flow together so effortlessly.I also couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to the secondary characters of Rogue Security, who I look forward to hopefully getting a book soon. Especially a certain bounty hunter…….hint hint!!!
This is the second book in the Rogue Security and Investigation Series and I loved it!! But I never had my doubts, Evan Grace is one of my go to favorite authors. Her writing is top notch. From the first page to the last I was totally drawn in to this story. And I never wanted it to end, and those epilogues!!!! Those just made me hungry for more! These books give so much more than romance, they give you suspense, mystery and action. On top of some sexy Alpha- hot men who take care of the women in their lives. So you really couldn’t want for more in a book. I don’t want to give to much away because this is definitely one of those books you need to learn everything from the book itself but y’all need to read this book. This was an amazing book an I highly recommend it!!!

Getting to read the second book in this series was awesome! I was hooked from the very first sentence. I was easily able to finish within a day. Shayla and Erik couldn’t be more different. But when they’re together it’s like those differences didn’t matter. Seeing the relationship grow between these two characters was not only entertaining but also inspiring. When reading a book, especially a Romance novel. You want to feel the chemistry between the main characters. Well they had plenty without going overboard. You felt that chemistry throughout the book. If you wish to read this book. Please note the first book must be read in order to understand what is happening. It is so worth it to start reading this series. 4/5 – By Vanessa
Love this emotional rollercoaster that Evan Grace takes us on!! Shayla’s story deals with some hard issues. Grab this amazing book today to see what happens!
I floved Erik and Shayla’s story so much, I started and finished it the same day. Gorgeous Erik is so full of himself and it takes the beautiful, spunky Shayla to point it out to him. Something about Shayla makes her stand out from all the others and that’s the allure not to mention the incredible connection and mattress gymnastics. Lol. In this case, opposites do attract. This was such a beautifully written phenomenal book you will not want to miss it. I’ve yet to read a book by Evan that I do not love or enjoyed reading.
What happens when a blind date turns into everything you never knew you wanted? You will drop everything when you find her after she left you after the best night of sex of your life. Erik runs the surveillance for Rogue Security. He’s a former marine and he’s not ready to settle down – but Shayla throws a wrench into all of the plans he thought he had.
What happens when you are trying to rid your body, mind and spirit of an abusive ex-husband? You agree to go out on a blind date that starts out horrible but ends up a one-night stand. Shayla doesn’t need complications and she’s not sure she is ready to date but is ready to clear the cobwebs. She has her 5 year old son Grant to worry about and doesn’t need another man to try to control her.
Erik and Shayla have a chemistry that no one can deny and he starts to not only win over Shayla’s heart but the security that Grant needs to find after his father abused his mother. But what happens when Shayla’s ex-husband comes back? What happens when he tries to rip their happily ever after out from under them? Erik and the Rogue Security crew are ready for the fight.
