WOW! Just WOW! This is the first book in the series I’ve read. So, now I have to go read all the previous ones. D’Azzo Justice League. It is extra good, when a family can share personal as well as professional common grounds! Marcus Jacko is the target, Nathan’s Dad, Joe didn’t want Nathan to take the assignment. His Mother and sisters, Emersyn and Tessa couldn’t talk him out of it. His assignment was to identify Marcus’ girlfriend and turn her. Things unexpectedly got out of hand and the plan required improvisation. Drew/Nathan met Olivia and her cancer striken mother, Joya. He stayed in constant conflict between his mission and the his perception of their innocent goodness. This is a slow paced mystery having many interwoven threads. The question of who are they keeps Drew/Nathan on his toes. His life is a Cirque du Soleil of investigative maneuvering! Does he find his answers? Are Olivia and Joya good people? Does Joe get his peace? Fantastic story! I look forward to reading the previous two. I received an ARC from Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
In The Protector Book 3 The D’Azzo Family, the suspense continues to build as Nathan pursues his father’s killer. His sister Tessa is assisting, and so is the rest of his family. Nathan did not expect another mystery to unfold while he is hot on the trail of his father’s killer. Full of action and a new romance, the Protector delivers as much entertainment, thrills, and suspense as the two previous books. You have to love the D’Azzo family and their loyalty and commitment to one another. They also show their commitment to the work that they and their loved ones do in law enforcement. Each has a gift that they share passionately to bring wrongdoers to justice. In the case of this series, the crimes they are solving link directly to the murder of their father. We finally find out all of the whys in this installment.

This story has a moving, suspenseful plot. The wonderful characters were well-developed. I enjoyed reading this book and series.
Believe me, I’m stingy with my five stars but The Protector is five stars all the way! Suspense, action, awesome plot, fierce and sweet romance – all wrapped up in one book. Well done!
The Protector by Nancy C. Weeks is the third book in her D’Azzo Family series. There are three D’Azzo family siblings. Our hero in this story Detective Nathan D’Azzo has been undercover for months and his two sisters, Emersyn and Tessa have their stories in the first two books of the series. Emersyn has her story in The Witness book #1 in the series and Tessa’s story, The Analyst is book #2 in the series. Each book propels the story narrative of finding their father’s killer and getting justice. They believe his death happened because he continued to pursue a cold case involving his roommates from college. In this story Nathan’s goal is to get with Olivia Warner and find out what she knows about the man suspected of hiring the assassin who shot his father. There are many twists, turns and surprises as the story unfolds and culminates in resolution for the family. This book can be read as a standalone but I think the reader would get more enjoyment by reading the first two books in the series.
Suspense, action, and great romance. Well written story with thrills and action that keep you turning the pages. A series that you can read again and again and still get captivated in the story. Highly, highly recommend.
