After graduating college, Amy was looking forward to a new life..little did she know it would be because of her step brother. One night she hears screaming that awakens her. She rushes to where it is coming from not knowing she was about to see her step brother kill their whole family.. She gets badly stabbed but survives. To save her life it was said that she had died, so she could change her name and move far away from it all. And that is how her new life began. For 10 years she has become a prisoner in her own house. She designs video games online and never leaves her home..ever. She has extreme security measures to help her feel safe while her step brother is alive in prison. She begins a friendship with a guy online who helps her with game codes. Tex and his wife Melody, have been through some horrors themselves so they dont ask personal questions. Amy is only known as Kitcat. After awhile of conversations Tex wants to help Kitcat with what ever she is going through..from their chats, he feels it was something horrible. He has a fellow Seal friend staying with them who is having nightmares about an incident he went through and agrees to chat online with kitcat at Tex and Melodys request. This is where the real story begins. I love the strong yet volnurable characters in this story. Im not going to tell you anymore because things take a turn ……
Amy has been through a lot in her young life. Almost killed by her step-brother, she was given a new identity as they buried her old identity in an empty casket, for her protection. Fortunately for her, the attorney in charge of the estate was a friend of her mother’s and has helped her find a level of security. Amy designs video games and is quite successful, but she also doesn’t leave her home.
Quinn was a SEAL medically discharged, now facing the challenge of what to do with his life now that he’s not military. He still had nightmares of the incident that caused his injuries and took the lives of two of his team. Tex and Melody have opened their home to him, giving him a place to ‘get his head together’ and not be totally alone.
If anyone gets that it’s Tex. It’s quite the coincidence that Amy has communicated with Tex on the dark web. She frequently finds answers to coding problems she’s having there. Tex has become a friend and Melody has chatted with her as well. With the new game she’s developing she has questions about SEALs and while Tex could answer them, he thinks Quinn would be the perfect person to do so.
As this online relationship develops so do concerns for Amy’s safety. Quinn suspects that the job he’s been asked to consider is actually protecting the woman he knows as KitCat.
Suspenseful, Intriguing, and Romantic with just the right amount of sizzle.
Amy had a horrifying night when her family was killed and she was left and thought dead as well. That was 10 yrs ago and they gave her a new name and moved across country. But she’s never been able to leave the house and has been terrified every since and has nightmares. She meets Tex online to help with the coding of her video games and that’s how she meets Quinn a former Navy Seal. It really doesn’t get exciting till the end. HEA.
Protecting Amy is a fantastic contemporary romance by Desiree Holt. This is a fairly quick read, perfect for those with limited reading time. Ms. Holt has given readers a well-written book and furnished it with fabulous characters. Amy hasn’t left her house for 10 years. After her stepbrother murdered her family she’s been agoraphobic and supports herself designing video games. Quinn left the SEALs after an injury. Quinn and Amy’s story is packed with drama, humor, sexy bits, action and suspense. The only way I could have loved this book more is if it was longer. I look forward to reading more from Desiree Holt in the future. This is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.
