Sniper is the 13th book in the Reed Security Series and the 1st book in a 3 book arc. Jackson and Chance are the second and third book in this arc and must be read in order. It is recommended the series is also read in order.Chance “Sniper” Hendrix is all about a good time. He was married when he was serving as a Navy SEAL and it didn’t work out so well for him. When his wife left him, he decided … wife left him, he decided that he was going to enjoy life and do what he loved. He knows that marriage can be good, but he just doesn’t want to go there again. He never intended to sleep with a stripper. He never intended to get involved in her life. But now that he has, there’s no turning back. But there’s nothing fun about the situation he just got himself into and there may be no way out.
Morgan James is searching for her missing daughter, Payton. After months of a dead end investigation, she takes matters into her own hands. Working as a stripper, she’s looking for a man named ‘The Broker’. He either has the information she needs or he’s the one behind the devious plot. She’ll do anything to get her daughter back, but in this tangled web of lies and manipulations, who can she trust?
“F&ck, man. You got a Whitworth Rifle?” I stood up so fast, my chair flew backward. I stalked over to Vanessa and tore the box from her hands. I laid the box on the table and took a deep breath before I opened the lid. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. Holding the Holy Grail would have been nothing compared to this.
“Give me some gloves,” I snapped. No one did anything for a minute, but when I glared around the room, Craig took off and was back just a minute later with a pair of gloves for me. I pulled them on and then ever so gently picked up the rifle.
“Vanessa, you don’t know what you have here. This magnificent weapon was designed by Joseph Whitworth in 1854. There were only thirteen thousand four hundred built between 1857 and 1865. Do you know how many of these still exist? There probably aren’t any left. This could be the very last original rifle in existence.”
I ran my hand over the gun lovingly, murmuring to myself. “49 inches in length with a 33-inch barrel. Fires two to three rounds per minute with an effective firing range up to a thousand yards, with a classic iron sights scope. F&cking beautiful.”
“Should we leave you two alone?” Jackson asked.
“You don’t know how amazing this is.”
“I do,” Cazzo cut in. “That’s why I bought it.”
“Yet, somehow you forgot to mention it to your wife,” Vanessa scolded.
“Now, sweetheart, this is a collectible. For how old it is and how rare, I got a great price.”
“Really? How much was it?”
“Just a few thousand dollars.”
“Oh,” Vanessa sighed in relief. “That really had me worried for a minute.”
“Baby, I would never go out and spend a ton of money without talking to you first.”
Vanessa smiled at him. “I know, Sam.” She walked forward, pulling out a piece of paper. “I was just really worried when I saw this bill for a Whitworth Rifle that was sold at auction for $161,000!”

This was a really good action packed read and I really enjoyed it Chance and Morgan meet at a strip club and end up spending the night together when Chance finds out she is stripping to try and get info so she find her daughter he and the rest of the team help her. This was a great read but be warned it does end on a cliffhanger.
I’ve read almost all of the Reed Security Books, but Sniper (Chance) and Shyla (Morgan) made me want to shake them till their teeth rattled!! The next 2 books will perhaps calm me down from that abusive behavior. This book is well paced, has surprising twists and turns, a few downright shockers, it definitely kept you on the edge of your seat. I love the banter between the men of Reed Security, that is almost like comic relief to these intense books. I cannot wait till the next book
I received a copy of this book from Booksprout and this is my honest review
Once again Giulia nails it with this addition to the reed security series! The instant connection between Chance and Morgan leapt off the page! U could tell he didn’t want to feel the connection between but was powerless to stop it! This story was fun to read with the usual interaction between the men of Reed security and their many unusual pieces of advice for each other. Although we were left in tears and holding our breathe for the next part in this 3 book series. The heartache I felt when this story cut off was swift and painful and hoping for some sort of relief in the second installment!!

Sniper is the 13th book in the Reed Security Series and the 1st book in a 3 book arc a well written story, but it does end on a cliff-hanger. I want to read the next book. There is suspense, drama, danger, a very nasty villain, betrayal, kidnapping of a child, and fighting. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Giulia has done it again, I loved this book. I did stop reading for a bit knowing that it is part of a 3 book arc, but it was like the book was calling to me “come on you know you want to finish me”. Now here I sit waiting patiently for the next 2 books in the series wondering what is happening to my favourite characters. If you are not a fan of cliff hangers I would suggest waiting for the next 2 books, thankfully this author is not one to let a large time gap go by(both books should be out before the end of June 2019 I believe) in between books. Even better is that you can start at the beginning of the series and fall in love with the whole Reed Security gang while you’re waiting for the next 2 books.

Wow, what a page turner! This one touches on so much it’s amazing and heart wrenching at times. Of course, there’s the fabulous and often funny camaraderie between the Reed Security hunks but there’s also the heavy sensitive subject of human trafficking. This story features Chance aka Sniper as an ex SEAL hottie that can be real ass at times but learning his backstory gives some insight to his behavior. His encounter with Morgan aka Shyla and their ensuing hunt for her daughter takes us on a thrill ride into the underground chasing a sex slaver. The intense, exciting storytelling with danger, brutality, lots of action, and a smoldering romance is terrific. The is a fantastic addition to this superb series and I can’t wait for the next installment in Sniper and Morgan’s story. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC.
There is loads going on in this book and at times you don’t know who to trust or what will happen next, Reed security have got involved in some dicey situations however it appears this time they may have met their match. You definitely want to get comfy before you start as you will be hooked once you start and wont move until the end … oh yeah and the end is just .. well its … its gonna leave you saying oh my god !!!!

Love love love this Reed Security series, and have been looking forward to this book. All my favorites from prior books are there, and the guys are hilarious at times. Sniper meets Shyla at his friend’s strip club, but she’s not who she pretends to be. Her daughter was abducted, and she’s trying to track down any info about who might have her. The strip club owner has a need for security, and drags the guys from Reed Security into some not-so-legal stuff, but for a good reason. Shyla/Morgan makes a decision about her daughter, and all hell breaks loose. NOTE: There is a huge cliff-hanger – this is a 3-part story. I can’t wait to find out how all this is resolved.

This story takes you on an action-packed adventure that is filled with suspense, emotion and some humour.
The book is a very big cliff hanger.

Watching Shyla dance, he never wanted a stripper, but something about her made him watch her and want her.
Morgan’s daughter, Payton, was taken and with no leads she decided to look for her herself and it had leads her to the strip club and the name The Broker. Knowing that the man was danger didn’t matter to her, she wanted her daughter back, but she let the security guard to call Reed Security and let Sniper know if she went missing.
Sniper knew there was something different about Shyla, finding out she was Morgan, looking for her daughter wasn’t what he expected, or that she would be taken by someone involved in human trafficking, and the team would be protecting her life from The Broker that for some reason didn’t kill her.
Morgan never thought a decision would be so hard, make a deal with the devil, get her daughter or betray the people who have been helping her, including Chance, who as much as she tries to deny it she knows there’s feelings there for, but will she make the right choice.
Ends in a cliff hanger.
Chance was known as Sniper when he was in the Seals. He left the Seals for his wife but she just used him and left. He doesn’t trust women because of her, as far as he’s concern they’re only good for sex. He works for Reed Security now. Morgan’s daughter was kidnapped three months ago. Leads have led her to a strip club were she works undercover as a stripper named Shyla. She will do anything to get her daughter back. Chance and Morgan meet and Chance doesn’t think much of her but he’s attracted to her. Can these two help each other? I really love this series. All the books so far have been stand alone books. This one is going to have three parts. Can’t wait for the next part.
As this storyline dealt with the kidnapping of Morgan’s young daughter and human trafficking, my heart broke for this young single mother and her desperation in searching for her daughter Payton.
I like the contraction of the Reed security team, this time with the focus on Sniper.
Compelling with suspenseful parts, sone that I didn’t like as Morgan was willing to betray Chance to get closer to her daughter.
Ending in a huge cliffy, this well written drama/romance screams for a HEA, but mostly for Morgan to be reunited with Payton!

Holy smokes! This book was full of action, danger, comedy, lust. Sniper, also known as Chance, meets a stripper & plans a one night stand. Shyla is full of secrets and a bit of misdirection. She is sailing so close to danger but she will do *anything* to achieve her goal. There is sizzling, undeniable chemistry between Shyla and Sniper. She draws out his protective side something fierce. I gobbled this book up in one sitting I enjoyed revisiting all the recurring characters. This story arc carries on over 2 more books, and I will be anxiously awaiting the unfolding story.

Another story in the Reed Security series with lots of action, some laughs, some heat. Sniper is the beginning of a three-book story, and I cannot wait for the next one to come out. Morgan was determined to find her daughter no matter what. Instead she found Chance. They were instant heat but both had a history of hurt and loss of trust. There were times I wanted to smack Chance upside his head or shake Morgan to see what was going on around her. I look forward to seeing how it all ends.
I received a copy of this story through Enticing Journey Book Promotions, and this is my unsolicited review.
human trafficking and sex slavery are ugly things. Reed Security has worked with various agencies in the past to take down some serious players, but their latest involvement is personal.
Chance aka Sniper served on SEAL teams, until separating to try and save a marriage that was not much of a marriage in the end. He felt badly burnt and betrayed by his ex, and avoided romantic connections as much as possible. working with Reed Security gives him the opportunity to still carry a gun, use his skills, and make a difference.
when he goes to visit his former Master Chief, he naturally falls for the one woman who does not seem to really fit into the whole stripper club scene. A single mom trying to get her daughter back, and being reckless to try to get info and aid to do so.
She puts a bit of her trust in Chance, and has a fling with him, but she also puts her trust in a bad man or two to try and get info.
The Chief was caught up in the mess trying to help bring down bad guys. But other actors were acting for money, and other motivators.
faced with a choice of aiding a nasty man or trying to save the teams at Reed Securities, Morgan yields little help, and finds herself in an even worse position as bullets fly, things explode, and families are put in danger at Reed Securities.
Can Morgan and the families survive? what about her daughter – is she already dead?
Book one of three about this awful case, that puts bad guys in positions to do great harm.
I received an advance copy of this book from Booksprout. I read it on Kindle Unlimited.
Biggest drawback? I have to wait a few weeks for the next book to release – but am so ready to read it!
To start, 1st be aware this is book 13 of a series, 2nd this is the first book in a three book ARC. 3rd It is a cliffhanger.
This book will not make a lot of sense if you have not read the rest of the Reed Security books. If you have read them, you will be hanging on the edge of your seat, laughing out loud and crying. You get to learn about Sniper and a bit about Jackson. Can’t wait until the next book!

We’ve waited for the next book from Giulia Lagomarsino and Reed Security and boy, did she deliver. This is the first of a three part story.
Morgan has been trying to find her four year old daughter and at this point, she’s willing to do anything it takes. When the police investigation comes up with nothing, she decides to follow her own leads to a man called ‘The Broker.’ That leads her to becoming a stripper at a club owned by a former boss of Chance, aka Sniper, at Reed Security. I’m not going to give you a synopsis of the entire book but let me say this. If you’ve been following this series, you know Giulia Lagomarsino has the innate ability to bring a storyline to life with a plot that will keep you intrigued and characters that are so perfectly flawed personalities you have no choice but to just be up in the middle of things. This book will make you feel like you’ve come back to catch up on things with old friends and before you know it, it over but not before the big cliffhanger. I hate to rush an author, but I can’t wait for the next one.
What do you do when your four year old child is abducted with no clues to find her? Morgan will do anything to get information to help find her daughter including working as a stripper. She has a lead on a person she is told might be able to help her. In the meantime, her boss invites an old Seal member, Chance/Sniper to check out his club. There is an attraction when they meet and he goes home with her. He doesn’t know she is basically undercover and treats her like a prostitute. But he keeps going back. He rescues her from a dangerous situation with the “broker” with knowledge she needs, and brings her back to Reed Security. But the “broker” wants what he believes is his and goes after Reed Security with his own army of protection. Everyone is in danger and the ensuing firefight is not without collateral damage. Morgan makes a deal to go with the devil when he promises to reunite her with her daughter. Now the suspense and danger is at a high, there is a cliffhanger! This is part one of a three part trilogy. So, now we wait for part two next month. Too invested to bail now. Well written and back to previous level of intensity.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book
Man oh man, I love reading this author and the security series that she has written. Each one of these guys are absolute gold and the stories that they share and bind together to conquer are nothing short of amazing. Sniper of course is no different with that respect. However, this is part one of a three part series within the series, so keep this in mind for your reading order. This particular book is about Sniper and Morgan and how their story unfolds and their chemistry ignites. As always the cameos from past/other characters are always a treat with their banter, witt and charm. This is a fantastic series, I highly recommend reading each and every word, the only thing disappointing is the feeling when the book ends and you have to wait for the next one! 🙂
