Protector is a fast paced action romance. Loved Jax and Kate. Jax, a former SEAL, medically discharged, and a single dad. Kate a single mother with a stalker. Jax steps in to help Kate out. Things aren’t what they seem. A ghost from Jax’s past threaten his future with Kate. Kate has a secret that may destroy Jax’s trust. Jax doesn’t trust easily, especially women. Great ending. A sweet epilogue. I loved Laura, who had Jax back and made his HEA with Kate possible!
This great book is full of action, suspense, twists & turns and of course, some love, romance and a little bit of spice. The characters are colorful and have a level of depth to them that add intrigue and emotions into the storyline. You can’t help but get engaged and want to see what happens next. You fall in love with Jax and Kate and can’t help but want the HEA. Great read and always looking forward to the next one.

One day, Jasmine’s encounter with a bully has Jax wanting to meet Jerry, the young boy that helped her. Kate and Jerry meet the father and daughter when she fully confides in Jax. As he helps the mother and son, Jax realizes that he’s falling for Kate and is willing to do anything to help her and her son.

A story about letting the past go and take where fate brings you for your HEA. A very well written story with nice storyline and plot.
The reader is thrown right into the drama in the first chapter and I like that. The reasons and descriptions comes later. A mix of bad guys, conflicts, coincidents, kidnapping, protective guy, secrets, lies, love and emotions. All gives this story a lot of action but also makes it a bit confusing at times.
A very enjoyable and captivating read that keeps the reader on the edge at times.
Loved this story! What a thrilling ride with this SEAL! This is a little different than books I have previously read from this author. It’s an intense story involving the FBI, mafia and spies. I enjoyed this story and the characters. I loved Kate and Jax as well as some of the secondary characters. Great chemistry between Kate and Jax. I loved their kids too! I enjoyed this story with all it’s twists, turns, action, mystery and suspense plus some added steam.

In this book we meet Kate Koval and Jax Creed. Jax has trust issues when it comes to women. First his mother left him at an orphanage when he was just 3 weeks old, his old girlfriend left him and took all his money, and finally his ex-wife cheated on him. The only good thing he got from all this was his daughter. So when she is telling him about this boy who stood up for her he wants to thank this young man. Kate doesn’t date and it is rare for her to even speak with most of the dad’s but when she gets a call from Jerry’s karate teacher telling her another dad wants to thank her son she takes that call. Kate also has trust issues that go back to her ex-husband. Someone is stalking her though and she will do anything to keep her son safe including seek help with the new ex-seal she just met. Can these two get a HEA or will their trust issues make that impossible?
This is a great book. It does have its ups and downs I really want to tell you about. However I don’t want to ruin it for any other readers. I will tell you this book will have you hooked from the first word to the very end. I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.
Jax is former Navy seal and when he learns that a boy stuck up for his daughter he wants to offers his thanks. When he meets Kate and her son he knows that there is something wrong immediately. Kate is scared and she is keeping secrets but will that stop Jax from being with her. When she finally tells him that she thinks she’s being stalked he uses his contacts to look into it. What he finds makes things even more trickier. Can he trust Kate? Will her past end things between them before they have a chance?
This is a steamy hot story with some intrigue thrown in. The chemistry between them is scorching hot. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.

If you read the story about former SEAL Cole, you might remember that he had a single dad friend, Jax.
No need to have read the series to understand the story – plenty of backstory here for what you need – it is just a lot of fun, steamy romance about an unexpectedly ex military man trying to adapt to moving from life on the teams to civilian life, and working to do it and help his new community – and a special little girl, Jasmine, daughter to Jax – along the way.
Jax is the formerly deployed Dad who is now also done with active duty, with a few injuries to boot.
And Jerry is the sweet kid who takes martial arts classes from Cole – and though Jerry is small and wiry, he steps of for Jasmine when one or more bigger boys get too aggressive on the baseball field.
Jax finds friendship, and a lot more, when he asks Jerry and his mom Kate to ice cream as a thank you.
Kate ans Jax have deep and tangled back stories that they begin to share with each other as they get entangled romantically.
Unexpected complications lead to some dangerous situations where Jax and Jerry both get a chance to show off their skills, and a friend of Jax uncovers some tech advantages that could be important to a variety of folks in the future – a future that Jax and Kate might share with their kids if they can hang onto their trust and faith – and the insights Jax encourages his friend to look for with the technology.
Raw, emotional, steamy and butt kicking fun, sexy adventure and family!

Jax is very grateful when he hears that a young boy defended his daughter against a bigger bully and knows that he is in his best friend, Cole’s, club. So he asks Cole if he can have the boy’s Mum’s number. Cole phones back to say that Kate, the boy’s mum, will be delighted to hear from him. When he phones her he explains what happened and how proud she should be of him. This leads to the four of them going out for ice cream and getting to know each other. But then Kate asks Jax for some help as she thinks that she is being stalked maybe by her ex husband! This starts the adventure of their lives. Jax and Kate are brilliant together and the storyline that Flora Ferrari has created for them is suspenseful, full of drama, surprises, danger, heroism, love and romance too! There was much more of a proper story with this book which I really loved and also, of course, plenty of steamy passion. A great book that was a real page turner and compulsive!

Another great story in this series about an older man/ younger woman. Jax a former SEAL who was medically discharged is a single dad. Kate is a single mother with a stalker. Laura also was a great addition to this story as well as the kids. A book I enjoyed reading. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
This is not the usual short insta love romance I usually read from this author. It is longer, action-packed with lots of ups and downs, twists and turns, suspense, secrets and very erotic. Strong characters with chemistry that is off the charts. This book is twice as long and is packed with twice as much excitement. Definitely recommended.

Jax has trust issues, all the woman he let in his life burned him. Because of an injury he had to retire, he was a Navy Seal. He meets Kate after her son stand up for his daughter. Kate asks for his help with a stalker but she has secrets she’s hiding. Can Jax protect her and can they find love? Can Kate win his trust? The story is fast paced and kept my interest. I loved it and the characters.
He was hurt in the seals and is medically discharged. On top of that really hurt by a woman. So he has big trust issues. She has a stalker who has target both her and her son. He steps in to help but all is not what it seems. They live in a town like I have lived in. Everyone knows who, what, where, when and why you do things or so they think they know everything. Very frustrating. A very enjoyable read. I received a review copy by booksprout and voluntarily review it.
A slide into second base…
It all starts with a slide into second base. What starts you ask? A story with plenty of suspense, twists, turns and lots of steam. I have read several stories by this author and this one is so different from any of them. While most are insta-love, May/December, Alpha male stories, this one reads more like a love/suspense novel. I truly loved Jax and Kate’s story. Actually, this may be my most favorite story by Ms. Ferrari.

This is an absolute romance with a villain or two, HEA, family matters, family complications, work environment, work complications, friends, and a whole lot of everything else neede to make a good story really good as this one most certainly is! Without a doubt this is one of the better stories I have read by this author and by now I have read quite a few. If not simply the best one jet? But at the end of the day, this is only my opinion, but I can say without a doubt that I can recommend this story for anyone who likes romances with a bit of excitement, HEA, and a lot of sweet romance to top it off. All in all really well done with this one.

I liked that both Jax and Kate had kids and met through their kids. Kate was a very strong female and I liked her. I also liked that Jax was so quick to help Kate and Jerry.
