Bennett hasn’t made his move, but that’s about to change.Bennett Walker visits my bakery daily. His best friend is dating my best friend. There’s no getting rid of him now. A shared hello or a nod of the head is all that passes between us each morning as I pour his coffee. What I don’t know is that Bennett has a secret. A big one. And everyone’s secrets come out eventually.Pelican Bay is full of … come out eventually.
Pelican Bay is full of surprises. Some of them have been more wonderful than I could ever ask, but others are far more than I bargained for. All I wanted was a cute little bakery by the bay. Now my building is in the line of fire, and there’s a hot former SEAL who refuses to let me save myself.

Anessa is opening a bakery in Pelican Bay. Every day Bennett comes in and has coffee in her bakery. Bennett is very attracted to Anessa and would like to ask her out but hasn’t built his courage up yet. Anessa is doing some remodeling in the kitchen area of her bakery and comes across something unexpected. Anessa now needs Bennett’s help. He jumps at the chance to get to know Anessa better. Along the way there is the mob, a biker gang, quirky townspeople and Bennett bossing her around acting like she is brainless. It is a crazy, funny, entertaining story. I love when you have a story that makes you laugh out loud. I loved seeing these women completely make the men of Pelican Bay Security crazy. This story was filled with heartwarming moments, some spice, some sugar and some crazy and you have a great read. I can’t wait to read the next one!

Well written characters. Fully developed plot with interesting action, suspenseful underlying stories. Great chemistry between Bennett and Anessa. Wonderful addition of secondary characters. I need Ridge and Tabitha’s story and Spencer and Katy and Pierce and Mack. I love it.

Book 2 in this great new series!! Bennett and Nessa fit together seamlessly and I really liked how the author brought in the characters from book 1 so we get to see how they are doing now. There are plenty of comedic moments to keep a reader chuckling throughout the book! I enjoy the writing style of Megan Matthews and look forward to more books featuring Pelican Bay Securities!!

Oh I loved Future Risk by Megan Matthews. Who wouldn’t fall for Bennett Walker! He visits Anessa’s bakery every day. The whole town of Pelican Bay knows they have feelings for each other but neither have made a move. Anessa moved to Pelican Bay for a chance to finally be on her own and make a life for herself. Bennett, an ex Navy Seal, works with Ridge at Pelican Bay Security and when he learns Anessa has discovered money hidden in the wall of her bakery, he and Ridge jump into action. As Anessa and Bennett grow closer they will have to figure out a way to keep her safe. There was so much going on this story that you simply could not stop reading. Between Anessa’s girlfriends, Pearl and the secret Bennett has been keeping I definitely recommend this book if you are looking for a summer escape!
Another great story from Pelican Bay. This is book two in the Pelican Bay series and has Bennett and Nessa. She is opening a bakery in town and Bennett is a former Navy Seal and works with Ridge at his Security Business. She is redoing her kitchen for her business but finds something the previous renter left behind. This sets the stage for Bennett stepping in to help especially as he’s been wanting to ask her out! This is another great adventure in Pelican Bay and will pull you in especially as the characters from the first book are involved!

I loved this book. It’s book two in the Pelican Bay Security series. This is Bennett and Anessa’s story. This book made me snort chuckle quite a few times. The trouble the women seems to find in this series is crazy and at times funny. Bennett works with Ridge (book 1) at Pelican Bay Security, Ridges security firm. Bennett and Ridge served together in the Navy as SEALs. Anessa has moved to Maine to get away from her overbearing family. They’re all convinced she’s going to fail miserably in Maine. Vanessa opens up a bakery in town and settles in for life in Pelican Bay Maine where the residents are a tad quirky. Bennett and Anessa have been dancing around their attraction to each other. When Anessa finds over $200,000 hidden in a hole in the wall of her bakery her life gets turned upside down. Before she knows it, she’s dealing with the mob, a local biker gang and Bennett bossing her around like she’s doesn’t have any brains in her head. Will her budding relationship with Bennett survive all the craziness? Will things ever get back to normal for poor Anessa?

Anessa owns the bakery in Pelican Bay and along with her friends Tabitha and Katy they can get into more trouble but the men from Pelican Bay Security (Ridge and Bennett) keeps coming to the rescue.
Anessa and Bennett have been flirting almost everyday but it seems to be going nowhere until she tangles with some bad guys and Bennett takes her home with him in order to protect her where she finds out he has a son she did not know about. Loved this suspense packed romance with great characters.
Pelican Bay
This book contains a little bit of everything. There’s so much going on that it’s hard to describe everything. The “base” story revolves around Anessa and Bennett’s relationship. Yet it’s the other offshoots that hold it together. The cast of characters is too long to list but each one is pivotal to the overall read. I guess Anessa summed it up with the fact that Pelican Bay wasn’t the sleepy little town she was promised. I off now to read book one and book three…..

Characters and backstories build into a fantastic story of two people deciding to start fresh in new jobs, friends and romance (if one will finally do more than nod “Hello”). She finds a drug money stash in the bakery and all hell breaks loose, and the story takes some twists and turns as he and his team do battle to protect. Be prepared to not close this book until you are done as the need to know what happens next will keep you WIDE awake! Love the story and will be reading more from her very soon.

Anessa owns a bakery and is secretly attracted to one of her regular customers, a former SEAL named Bennett Walker. Bennett also would like to pursue a relationship, but neither has made a move.
One day when Anessa is preparing to move the old stove out to prepare for the installation of a new stove, she finds a huge sum of money in a hole in the wall behind the stove. Apparently the previous renter of this space was a drug dealer. The bad guy comes back for his ill-gotten money, Anessa is kidnapped, and Bennett is there to protect her with his security company. Is this enough excitement to kick their romance up a notch? Will they finally admit to each other that they have feelings they would like to pursue? Is a HEA waiting for them once all of these problems get resolved?
Pretty sure this was one of the best security firm books I have read. I loved this story so much and can’t wait to move into the next novel. This series is centered around Pelican Bay and has the most amount of Alpha males you would ever come across. The story is interesting, engaging and keeps you hooked.

Full of action, intrigue, suspense, and humor. The girls of Pelican Bay are always finding trouble, and this time it’s Anessa’s turn. Finding a large amount of money hidden in the wall of her bakery is just the start of her troubles. Bennett jumps at the chance to get to know her better, to protect the woman he;d like to be more than friends with. But Bennett has a secret to protect, and Nessa has not just the mob but also a biker gang muddying the waters. I loved watching Nessa and her friends completely befuddle the men of Pelican Bay Security. And they have some of the BEST conversations! With plenty of heartwarming moments, this is a great addition to the series, and I can’t wait to read what comes next!
