It all comes back to bite him! When terrorist Damien Freihof began his rampage on the Omega Sector unit, he claimed it was revenge for them killing his wife, but circumstances lead them to believe she’s not really dead, and that she might be just the bait they need to bring this madman out of the woodwork so they can take him down once and for all. This has been an exciting series with lots of twist and turns, and this book was a fairly fitting end to it all.
Omega Sector founder Ren McClement will stop at nothing to bring down the terrorist who has been attacking his group of highly trained law enforcement officers for the last few months. Freihof has killed, injured and tormented more than anyone can stand, so Ren’s determined to bring his reign of terror to an end once and for all … even if he has to use an innocent party to do it!
Natalie Anderson has been on the run from her demented husband for several years now, and she should know better than to trust a man she runs across, but Ren seems so sincere. Little does she know that he knows exactly who she is and who she’s running from … he just believes she’s an accomplice instead of a victim! As he comes to know the real person, Ren wishes there was another way out of this mess, but he has no other option than to reveal that she’s still alive … will it end her life for real this time, or will he be able to save the day and keep her as well as the rest of his team safe from Damien Freihof?
Hold onto your seat, This is one thrill ride that you won’t want to get off of. From the beginning until the end this book pulls you in and keeps you turning the pages until the end. This is the first book that I have read by this author but, it definitely won’t be the last. It has intrigue, suspense, action, adventure and romance.
An ardent love story and an explosive finale to the riveting romantic suspense series that has kept the readers on the edge fearing for the protagonists’ lives, while swooning over the ardent romance.
Natalie’s survival instinct and strength to withstand the horrible abuse her ex-husband Freihoff, the searched after killer and domestic terrorist, done on her made me admire her while her destiny broke my heart. To think that she was so whole, so strong, still standing and taking care of herself after everything she went through is nothing sort of amazing. One of the things that I truly admire about Janie Crouch’s writing is the way she builds her heroines to be tough, capable, smart, independent women, with an inner strength that carries them through the worst possible scenarios life can put them in.
Ren had a bit worried at the beginning, I admit, but I warmed up to him soon, when I witnessed his kindness, his good heart, his struggles with honesty while working undercover, and his aim to protect and guard Natalie with everything in him. The sweet and luscious love story developing between Ren and Natalie is the center of the story, capturing my heart, making me sigh because of the tangible, strong connection between them, the way they get each other, and oddly enough, the trust that was building between despite the circumstances.
The secrets Ren had to keep to accomplish his mission, to stop the terrorist attack yet keep Natalie safe while getting her co-operation gave the story intensity and put the whole situation on a frail edge that could crumble at any moment. The wild nature surrounding them while on hiding put their endurance on a test, yet it is the threat from the fellow humans that can end their lives before they have a chance to explore the passion and feelings flaming between them.
The smoothly flowing and well-written story pulls you in, brings all the feels into the surface, and makes you fall in love with the characters. I loved how the whole Omega team was present in the tale while the suspense was fierce, each doing what they are the best at. They pulled Natalie into their fold and brought me in tears with the support and kindness they showed her.
With the delightfully tender and gentle love story for the founder of the Omega sector, the agency bit farewell to the readers, with the final showdown to capture the terrorist that has plagued them for so long, tortured themselves and their loved ones and even killed their own.
Now I want to go and binge-read the whole series again…

In the Lawman’s Protection
Janie Crouch
Another 5 star read in the miniseries Omega Sector:Under Seige!
From beginning to end another nail-biting, hair-pulling, breath-holding suspenseful, intriguing, romantic story in only the way Janie Crouch can write.
Ren and Natalie are thrown together as the Omega Sector try to bring a stop to the reign of terror Damien Freihof is instigating against them. Will the elaborate plan REN has to discover if Natalie is an accomplice or a victim backfire or work.
As an end to the series it goes out with a bang!
Ren is a fantastic character, we learned about him a little before in the series but he has a complex personality and his life is full of mysteries since he spent most of it undercover. I really enjoyed learning more about him and to see him act as well….he is really the perfect match for someone like Nathalie
Nathalie has fear deeply set in her bones…beside psychological trauma, her body as well as her psyche show the traces of Damien torture…. she took the opportunity she saw to flee but she never felt free always terrified he would find her again….but no matter how much she suffered…deep inside she is still a good person, she shows compassion and when she can help other she does…it’s really telling how courageous she is.
This story was all i wanted it to be…there was tension, moments where i cried, moments where i laughed all together with the Damien arc coming to an end and while i love this series it was really time for him to meet his fate and for the rest of the characters to be able to breathe a little…
It was a page turner from the beginning and if this could work as a standalone i prefer to recommend you to read it in order so you have a deeper insight of what the characters have suffered to help understand how far they are willing to go to succeed. It’s said they suffered yes but it’s it’s too light explanation for what they really endured so this series is better read in order for sure.
It’s a great romance with a excellent dose of suspense so i recommend it without any hesitation or doubt!
Again Janie Crouch done great Job.Story tells about woman named Natalie who fake her death just to get away from her cruel and evil husband.Then when she running away she meet man named Ren.She doesnt know that Ren is supposed to find out does she know her husband business who is planing terrorist attack.Attraction rises between them and clock is ticking.what happens next…?you have to read it to find out;) my opinion is that book was so thrilling and full of action,keep you alert and keep hunger to read more and more.Could they trust each other after lies? Can Ren keep her safe?
This is a truly engaging, suspenseful and intriguing romance. From the start you will become so invested in the lives of the characters, you will feel the anxiety of the suspense and the anticipation of the heartache yet to come. Natalie and Ren will weave themselves into your heart, and you won’t want to let them go.
The story is fast paced, action packed and will keep your attention from beginning to end. The characters are well-developed, the emotions are high, and the passion is steamy. The storyline of the series is intense and compelling, but each story can be read as a standalone. You may find it more enjoyable if the stories are read in succession as the characters are integrated into the whole series. I highly recommend you read this story and the series!
In The Lawman’s Protection-Book #6:
I finished it in one day. Be prepared because you won’t want to put it down.
When Ren McClement who’s the Omega founding agent goes undercover to find Natalie Anderson it gets very interesting. She’s Damien Freihof ex wife who they thought was dead. Damien has been terrorizing, and been after the Omega Sector for quite some time now. Ever since he thought Natalie was killed by there agents.
After he sends in two of his agents to make contact with Natalie she freaks and needs to run. Just as he predicted she would run. He just hopes he can win her over. Now it’s time to get her on there side. He needs to play it cool, but things go a little off track.
Hopefully she’ll see him as nothing but a nice guy.
First book I have read by this author and it was amazing. Full of drama, suspense, action, adventure, unusual situations and circumstances and romance. It had a strong cast of characters and a solid, engaging storyline. It was non-stop excitement all the way to the end.
My heart went out to Natalie. She had been through a lot in her abusive marriage and even though she was able to escape by faking her death, she still never felt safe. She became excessively compulsive in regards to her safety, always searching and watching, trying to be as plain and forgettable as possible and always checking, re-checking and checking again all the doors and window locks at home. She just knew deep down that her ‘death’ would not last forever, that her obsessive ex would come for her and next time it would be the end. She worked many jobs for cash under the table just to have food and shelter but she always had her bag packed and ready to go at a minutes notice. Even though she seemed weak, she was resilient and had a core inner strength and a determination to survive.
Ren, on the other hand, I really was determined to not like him. He gave Natalie such a hard time in the beginning and with the befriending and setup, I just wanted to strangle him. However, knowing his side of events and what had happened to his friends and others he worked with because of Natalie’s ex, it made it easier to understand where he was coming from. He was definitely a leader, strong and sure of himself and his mission. He had already deemed Natalie guilty and was sure she could lead him to her ex so they could end his reign of madness for good. The more interaction he had with Natalie and the more they talked and shared about their lives you could tell he was a good man with strong convictions just wanting to keep those important to him safe.
I enjoyed the drama between all the characters in the book and the pace of Ren and Natalie’s friendship to romance relationship. I also liked the postcards, that was a nice sweet touch. There are also some somber moments, moments of excitement, smiles, laughter, and tears. Great read, all around.
* I received an ARC of this book from the author with no obligation to review. The thoughts expressed in this review are non-biased and completely my own.
Sorry to see this series end. Natalie was a fantastic character who was “dead” and in hiding. Ren was with the Omega team and was after her to find her husband and at first thought she was still working for him. Being with her for awhile he finally decided she was innocent but then used her as bait. This was another great story with plenty action and lots of great characters. I really liked Natalie and Ren. Although I wanted the bad guy caught I hate to see this series end as they were all great!
this is a revitting story, that I could not put down. if you like suspense and romance you have to read this story. love Ren and Natalie could not believe what all she has been put through l liked that the whole team comes in to help if you have read any of the other books you have to read this one. I was given a copy of the book but this is an honest review.
