As the key witness to a high-profile murder, the stakes turn dangerous and take an unpredictable twist leaving her once simple life an existence she’ll never reclaim.
In a true tug of war between good and evil, Luke fights to overcome his past, to protect his future. Can Luke and Daisy save each other and find a happily ever after? Or, does murder and mayhem prevail, robbing Daisy of her freedom and sentencing Luke to a life alone?

As with the other two Brother’s Keeper books, this book did not disappoint! Luke and Daisy have a rocky start but the rough beginning leads into an interesting friendship and ultimately a strong partnership.
There were so many surprises in this book that I really enjoyed, from start to finish. Just when you think trouble is over, it comes again out of nowhere, leading Daisy and Luke on a thrilling (for the reader) journey.
Overall, this was an enjoyable book and I look forward to the next book in the series.
Luke: It was a wonderful, suspenseful romance. I love all the O’Reilly brothers but I think Luke is my favorite. Like and Daisy had so many of the same qualities that they were perfect for each other. Luke was always all business and up right that’s what I loved about him. I fell in love with both Daisy and Luke. I loved how Stephanie St. Claire chose to write Like it was a perfect addition to the series. I loved that I could solve what was going to happen until the very end. That was made it fantastic!
This book!!!! I was pulled in from the start and could not put it down. Even after finishing it, I feel pulled to this story. Between the hero and heroine, I fell for the characters. There is suspense, intrigue, laughter, tears and a great HEA. Well worth the read.
Luke is so hot, the brooding bad boy. I loved Daisy and Luke’s story. I love when circumstances put two people together that just belong, and Daisy and Luke just belong. Luke is the brother that is the fixer, he takes care of the ugly side of Brother’s keeper. I felt Daisy was the fixer of Luke, they just belong. There is lots of intrigue, mystery, surprises, and drama as the story unfolds, this large expanding loving family is right there to support each other through it all. This is a book with great characters, interesting story and lots of feelings, an emotional addition to this series.
Luke and Daisy’s story is book 3 of the Brother’s Keeper series and is just as great, if not better then the first 2 books in the series! Luke loved being a military man and it crushed him when an injury caused him to end his military career early. Now working at his family’s business – Brother’s Keeper, he’s become very broody, however he loves his family and will do whatever it takes to keep his family and those he loves safe! Daisy is singer who happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time and witnesses the murder of a US Senator! When Luke is assigned to protect her, he see it as just another job…however fate will have it otherwise! When the chemistry between the two is too hot for them to resist, they give in to their desires, but will it end up costing them the lives of their friends and family? I LOVED Luke and Daisy’s story – great story line with great characters!
Another 5 star read from the Amazing Stephanie St. Klaire. This book has everything in it. Mystery, suspense, love, and a HEA. You definitely want to read this book.
There is something rotten in Washington, D.C., and Brother’s Keeper Security is in the thick of trying to sort it out. U.S. Attorney Carter Landry makes an appearance here, as well as a few other folks from the McKenzie Ridge Series in this book. I love seeing people from the prior series show up in this series. It’s a nice way of connecting things.
Daisy witnesses a murder at the start of the book, and Carter Landry helps her get away. She ends up in the care of Brother’s Keeper Security, and specifically Luke. Luke is dangerous and doesn’t think he’s worthy of anything good in this life because of all of the tough choices he had to make in military service to his country. This book gives us a good idea of his struggles and why he thinks this way.
Daisy talks a lot when she’s nervous, and Luke hardly talks at all at first. They spend a good chunk of the book getting to know each other, which I really liked. They slowly figure out that they have a lot in common. There is excitement, suspense, tension, and adventure in this book, and some pretty harrowing scenes. Even more importantly, it explores the relationships between these brothers and the way they support each other unconditionally. It also delves into the relationships between the women who are attached to this workplace, either peripherally or through their relationships. I appreciate the way they support each other unconditionally, even when they don’t understand why someone is acting a certain way. A good portion of this book is about building relationships and friendships with Daisy, who is in a very tough place and really needs the friendships.
This book kept my interest and was well-written and enjoyable. I recommend it if you like this type of book.
The O’Reilly brothers keep getting better and better!! This is Luke and Daisy’ s story.
Luke is a such a fantastic hero! Tough, strong, he carries a world of hurt in his heart. Daisy is a woman on the run. She is SO feisty! I loved her spirit and her strength.
This is an opposites attract story. It’s steamy and emotional. I loved it!! I can’t wait for the rest of this series!!
Absolutely loved it ! Couldn’t put it down from page one. This is book three in the O’Reilly Brothers series , and each one gets better and better. Luke will break your heart ! And Daisy will help to put it back together . A must read, as are the first two. Don’t know how she does it, but each book Stephanie writes just gets better and better.
Daisy is under the Brothers Keepers protection, under Luke’s protection because she saw something she shouldn’t have and is now a hunted person by the bad guys.
Luke thinks he doesn’t deserve someone to love, someone to come home to for all that he has done as a soldier. But there is something about Daisy that makes him want. Will he be able to let her light drive away his shadows ?
This is the third book in the Brothers Keeper series and as exciting as the previous ones. It keeps you guessing, make you laugh and cry, basically tug your heartstrings and leave you with a goofy smile. Can’t wait for the next in the series.
Off the charts sexy, emotionally thrilling, action packed romantic adventure filled with danger, swoon worthy alpha males, exciting twists and a passion that will not be ignored.
Luke O’Reilly is the real deal whole package, possessive alpha male, sexy as all get out, smart as a whip, charming when he wants to be and someone you ever want to cross. Daisy King is sassy, sexy, smart and a perfect match in every way for Luke. Highly entertaining and engaging reading experience that I know I will repeat over and over….
“Sometimes we do bad things for the right reasons. Sometimes…that makes you a hero”.
Luke O’Reilly is a retired soldier that works with his brothers at Brother’s Keeper; a high security, high tech company. He’s all about his family, work and carries around the weight of his past. He’s gruff, tough, a bad guy that doesn’t believe in happily ever afters and being worthy of a good life.
Daisy is a peaceful, kind of a free spirited woman that lives a quiet life with her dog. She does singing gigs and helps her friend Cally catering when needed. When her life gets thrown upside down and turns into a nightmare, she needs to relay on total strangers to keep her safe. Life as she knows it will be forever changed.
When Luke is assigned to protect Daisy, he sees her as a job and won’t let anything or anyone make him fail his duty. But what happens when your obligation turns into something meaningful …….When you have to decide between your job and the woman that finally makes you feel normal….
When Daisy feels like that for once she belong somewhere and find a family she loves she has to make a tough choice…..save her life or save the lives of the people she could finally call her own.
This was my first book in the Brother’s Keeper series and I was hooked! I actually devoured the pages in one day!
Packed with action and feelings, I was on edge because just when I thought the HEA was happening…..BAM more actions!
Can’t wait to see what’s up next for the O’Reillys !
Stephanie had me hook, line and sinker. My eyes were glued from page one! I loved this book so much! I devoured the entire thing in one sitting. Once I started, I just couldn’t stop. It has everything I love in a book; comedy, romance, friendship, angst, suspense and plenty of surprises.
Luke started off being so cold and indifferent, and ended being so unbelievably romantic I couldn’t help but swoon. And the comraderie and ribbing between Luke and his brothers was both hilarious and admirable. There’s nothing like the love of your family.
And Daisy……I adored Daisy’s character! She was sweet, spunky, brave, sassy and so funny. Despite not having a great childhood and all drama she went through, she still had so much love to give. She fit in perfectly with all of Luke’s family.
You know you’ve read an amazing book when you laugh so hard your ribs hurt, you cry both sorrowful and happy tears, you gasp from surprise, you sit on the edge of your seat with your eyes flying across the pages because you can’t read fast enough and you definitely, definitely swoon so hard, you wish so much you could just crawl into the pages and right into the heros arms.
Stephanie did such an incredible job, I felt like I was right there in the story with them. This was one of those book where it was so good, you just didn’t want it to end. Absolutely 5 stars all the way! Thank you Stephanie, for the excellent read.
Holy cow! Stephanie St. Klaire is certainly making a place for herself at the top with the best of romance writers. Her character’s are so well developed, but that’s not even the best thing about her writing. She creates a wonderfully woven story of romance that makes your heart throb, humor that makes you laugh out loud, suspense that makes your heart beat faster, sex that makes body parts throb and HEA’s that make you cry. St. Klaire has it all!
These Brother’s Keeper’s stories continue to amaze me. Luke is a big tough guy who thinks his past and what he’s done will make it impossible to ever have a long term relationship or be worthy of a woman’s love. He’s better off just doing his job of protecting people and country. His next job is to protect Daisy. That is, if he can ever get her to shut up!
Daisy is scared and alone–except for the man that only grunts in response to her attempts at conversation. This could be a very long period of protection for both of them. Daisy is convinced she knows the real Luke that is hidden from most. Can she convince the real Luke to come out and love her?
Daisy witnesses a murder and is whisked away by people she doesn’t know. Being taken away she has no idea what is going on. She meets Luke and he doesn’t do relationships but starts to fall for her. The brothers all try and take care of one another so while they are keeping her safe there is so much to them and all around them. You can’t help but just fall in love with Luke and what e does for her
Heart Pounding!! Excitement and intrigue are the name of the game in this story!! But it also includes a blooming romance the leads to a beautiful happily ever after. I LOVED Luke & Daisy!! Every book in this series just keeps getting better! Can’t wait to see what comes next!!
OMG! How do you describe a story that has it all?
Stephanie St. Klaire has written a full length novel about a family of ex-military brothers and their women. This is the third book in the Brother’s Keeper series and is about Luke O’Reilly who has been assigned to guard Daisy King, a witness to the murder of a U. S. senator. The story starts with a bang (gunshot) and the author takes you on a journey full of suspense and romance. But that is only part of the plot. Stephanie St. Klaire has written a beautiful book about love: of brothers, family, friends and the women who become part of the family. It is also about government conspiracies. A regular whodunit!
This is a full length novel involving a time frame of several months. The author uses that to build her characters and storyline without superfluous descriptions. Each word, sentence and paragraph are essential to the overall plot. You become a voyeur, privy to the actions and conversations of all characters.
LUKE is an exciting rollercoaster that takes you through many turns and twists. WHAT A RIDE!
The story got off to a little bit of a slow or choppy start but once it got going, it got going!!!
I love Luke, Daisy, and Gibby!!! Momma Colleen and the brood were great. It is always nice to see when a broken man finally realizes that he can have it all.
Such a page turner. Can’t wait to see the next one fall!
Luke was probably my favorite brother. I am drawn to a broody man. I love some good banter between the characters of a book and this book delivered. A feisty heroine and broody alpha male gold. I am so glad I found Stephanie her books are a great read. You won’t want to put the book down.
Wow, I don’t know what to write for this review without giving spoilers. This book is amazing. I loved spunky Daisy. She is determined to save Luke from himself. Luke is brody and doesn’t think he deserves a happily ever after. This book has lots of serious times to it but it also has laughter. The brothers all crack me up with their banter to each other. There is some mystery and tons of excitement in this book as well. Then there is tons of love and very much needed joy as well. I love reading about some of the past characters from Stephanie’s other books. Love being caught up in them. I can not wait for Dace’s story next. Hoping we get books about the cousins as well. I love this series.
