Julian “Booker” Cruz, former Navy SEAL, joined an elite security ops agency with one goal in mind: to forget his past. With the overload of work, there’s no time for romance, nor does he want it. His rule—don’t mix business with pleasure. Until one assignment puts that rule to the test. Chloe Channing is not to discover his undercover role as her protective detail from an unknown psychopath. But … But as their days pass together in tropical paradise, it becomes difficult to keep his desire from compromising everything. Including her safety.
All Chloe wants is to remember, but so much of her memory was lost after her assailant left her unconscious. On a summer trip with friends at her family’s estate in the Bahamas, she yearns for the quiet respite from a previous heartbreak and her tortured nightmares. She never expects a man like Julian to help her find emotional peace and physical healing. But as she falls deeper, her flashbacks slowly come together, and they include glimpses of one handsome, mysterious, yet all-too-familiar face: Julian’s.
Is Chloe’s mind playing tricks on her again… or has she met this man before?
Even if Julian could let go and risk it all, could he ever forgive himself enough to fall in love again?

Oh wow. This is my first book by this author, and if I am not mistaken, this is also her debut novel. It was absolutely amazing. There are no words to describe how this book captivated me from the very beginning and left me wanting more once it was over. Congratulations to author Michelle Fernandez on a great debut novel and I look forward to what she has next in store for us. Fantastic read and highly recommended.
This may have been the authors debut novel but you would never know that. She wrote a romantic, angsty, sexy read. Two strong characters that are struggling with past tragedies. When they meet each other they are drawn to one another but timing is not right. Fast forward and they meet again, this time it will be a slow, sexy burn to the end.
I love my romance with suspense and angst and Michelle delivered with this one. There were chapters that had me holding my breath. The chemistry between Chloe and Booker was off the charts.
Man Chloe and Booker sure didn’t have easy lives! So much tragedy and pain but their lives came together in a beautiful way. He was her own knight in shining armor that she clearly needed.
Till I Found You
(The Broken Hero’s Series #1)
Michelle Fernandez
Till I Found You is a beautifully written romantic suspense. It sucked me in from the very first page. I fell in love with Julian and Chloe’s story of love. This pair had met once 2 years before and felt an instantaneous spark. This couple were both broken in different ways. They both healed the other.
Chloe loved reading her damsel in distress novels but she never realized that she would end up with her own super, sexy, secret agent who’d sweep her off her feet.
Julian’s wife was killed out of an act of revenge. He is still beating himself up over it nor accepting that it wasn’t his fault. He doesn’t believe that he can love someone again cuz of the past demons he allows to haunt him.
Chloe smashes down the wall he’s built around his heart and helps him heal. Julian breaks through Chloe’s battered heart and awakens her memory of the night they met.
I loved the suspense of not knowing who killed Chloe’s mom and had their mind set on also taking out Chloe. The person who happened to be the killer was someone I would of never guessed it to be. The reason why makes you realize how sick and twisted the character is.
Till I Found You is a book that I could read many times over. To be honest I’ve read It twice already. It is one of my favorite reads for 2020. The best part is this book is the authors debut novel. I’m looking forward to reading book 2, Till I Tempt You, once it is released.
Oh my goodness !! Wow!! This book absolutely had me going the whole time !! I never knew what was coming when I turned the page !! Holy moly !! Absolutely fantastic!!
I cannot even believe that this is a debut!! Wow !! I really am looking so forward to what’s next from this author !!
Absolutely fantastic !!
This is book 1 in the Broken Hero series. Booker met Chloe on assignment and she intrigued him so much she has been on his mind for awhile. She was the first person after his late wife he felt something for. Her dad who is a powerful job thinks she is in danger he comes and uses the agency that he works for to protect her. Of course without out her knowing. Chloe has meet Booker before but has no memory of him or certain eventssince ber mugging 6 months ago. I loved the suspense and chemistry between them.
Wow did this book have some suspense in it or what. Love the chemistry between chloe & booker! It is a military suspense romance book has some action in it. Def worth the read!
This story is amazing! The characters jumped out at me, to the extent it seemed like I was actually watching a movie! Booker and Chloe are phenomenal! The secondary characters are great! Highly recommend! Can’t wait for book 2!
This book seriously what a wonderful second chance. Even though Julian got his happy ending my heart still hurts for him and what could of been. The little bit of suspense was also intriguing! I don’t think anyone would have any easy time putting two and two together with that until it is all revealed. I highly recommend this story it will have your heart
The blurb caught my attention right away and the story did not disappoint! There was so much suspense in the story but well written! Chloe has lost her memory after being attacked and wants to gain her memory back. Julian who would like to forget his past is working as her protective detail who is trying to keep her safe while keeping his distance from her emotionally.
This was the first book I have read by this author and it won’t be the last. Chloe is suffering from amnesia and Booker is undercover as her protective detail. Neither one is looking for the other but can’t deny the chemistry between them. As time goes on, will Chloe’s memories come back? What happens when she realizes that she knows Booker from somewhere? Is he a friend or foe? I really enjoyed reading their story! Can’t wait to read more from this author!
Thank you for the privilege of reading this book! Well done
This is the 1st book I’ve read by this author and I LOVED IT!!! It has everything I look for in a romantic suspense….murder, mayhem, mystery, anger, grief, sadness, self doubts….chemistry and love. Booker and Chloe have a rocky road to travel. Can they catch the person after Chloe before it’s to late? Will they find the love they’ve both been looking for? I volunteered an honest opinion for this book.

Michelle is a newish author to me but I found myself very entertained by her characters. I really loved this book.
Every now and then a book completely consumes you and leaves you speechless!
OMG!! I feel like I’ve been waiting for forever to read this book. I was so absorbed, ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL! Hands down, a must-read. Brilliant writing, You get more intrigue, more mystery and action.
Till I Found You sucks you in and holds you there until you’re completely unaware of everything happening around you.
I loved this book. Intense, suspenseful, and done perfectly as usual
A Till I found You by Michelle Fernandez will ruin readers to the core.
This is my first book by this author and it won’t be my last. I never wanted to put this book down. Till I Found You sucks you in and holds you there until you’re completely unaware of everything happening around you. This is Booker and Chloe’s story.
Chloe had amnesia due to past traumatic event that caused her mind to block out years of her past and not remember anything but ever so slowly fragments of her past were showing her glimpses in flashbacks and at first she wasn’t sure if her mind was playing tricks on her or if she really was remembering bits of her past.
Booker aka Julian works for a security firm KSIG when one day he steals the case from his co-worker because he recognizes the client.
I thought I knew who the villain in this book was, but boy was I wrong. I definitely did not see that curveball coming.
I can’t wait to read Till I Kissed You (Book two). I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves suspense, romance, angst, hot alpha male, sexy female doctor or ex navy seal.
From the first chapter I was in love with Julian “Booker” and his determination to protect someone he had only met once before. Julian is a former navy seal so that is already a huge swoon worthy factor already but he is sexy and sweet also. Chloe is having a tough go of it and she needs help, she gets it in Julian. Julian doesn’t know it at first either but he needs her too!! The pull between them is more than they ever expected and makes for one hell of a good love story. I cannot wait for Till I Kissed Her!!!!
I did the unthinkable and read book 2 before book 1. After ‘Till I kissed you’ I had to read ‘Till I found you’ as I fell head over heels for the characters and the story. I’m thrilled to have gone on this ride with them all. This first book was written slightly differently and kept on jumping between dreams, memories and sometimes skipped parts only to mention them later as a memory so it was a bit strange, but it suited this particular story. The cover matched the book so well. It was beautiful, heartfelt, action packed, sexy, romantic and sometimes a bit emotional. Loved it all!
Loved the book it was great, the story was well written and the characters are interesting. Once I started I could not put the book down from start to finish you just could not get enough left you wanting more twists and turns with emotions that makes you want more for a former Navy Seal Julian now being Elite Security OPs sent to protect Chloe they are attracted to each other can they both move on.
Thank you for allowing me to review your book.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Till I Found You (The Broken Hero Book 1)
Michelle Fernandez
Honestly if I could give this more than 5 stars I would. I can not believe that this is the debut novel by Ms. Fernandez. I am now a huge fan. This book had everything that I enjoy in a book – suspense, romance, angst, hot alpha male, sexy female doctor, ex navy seal, working in security, twists, amazing supporting characters. Julian “Booker” Cruz and Chloe Channing are instantly attracted to each other when they first meet, but nothing happens as he is on the job. I thought I knew who the villain in this book was, but boy was I wrong. I definitely did not see that curveball coming at me. I devoured this book, and then thought about it so much I ended up reading it again. I also talked it up to several book reading friends. I am so looking forward to book 2 from the excerpt at the end. I imagine it will be just as great as this one, and hopefully there will be some more about Chloe and Booker in this one. OMG – the epilogue was amazing!! I believe that you will be happy you gave this new author the chance.
A beautiful story about fate and connections. Chloe and Booker have an undeniable attraction to each other and Chloe struggles to remember Booker from before due to her memory loss. I didn’t like that Booker put off telling Chloe the truth, but I understand why he did it. Loved the suspense and drama of this story and can’t wait for more of this series.
