ONE TO PROTECT
by Tia Louise

WARNING: Recommended for adult readers (18+) only. Mature themes, strong language, and sexual content.

One scar.
One betrayal.
No escape.

When Sloan Reynolds beats criminal charges, Melissa Jones stops believing her wealthy, connected ex-husband will ever pay for what he did to her.

Derek Alexander can’t accept that—a tiny silver scar won’t let him forget, and as a leader in the security business, he is determined to get the man who hurt his fiancée.

Then the body of a former call girl turns up dead. She’s the breakthrough Derek’s been waiting for, the link to Sloan’s sordid past he needs. But as usual, legal paths to justice have been covered up or erased.

Derek’s ready to do whatever it takes to protect his family when his partner Patrick Knight devises a plan that changes everything.

It’s a plan that involves breaking rules and taking a walk on the dark side. It goes against everything on which Alexander-Knight, LLC, is based.

And it’s a plan Derek’s more than ready to follow.

Review

This book was smoking hot with lots of sexy scenes.  You may want to take your kindle into the bedroom for this one.

I highly recommend that you pick up One To Hold before reading One to Protect.  I have read all the books in this series and have loved them immensely.  One to Protect picks up after One to Keep.  Melissa and Derek are living the happily ever after with a baby on the way when a dead call girl shows up that looks identical to Melissa.  Derek knows that Sloan is involved in her death and is out to prove it this time.  How far will he go to risk his own life and miss out on the wonderful life he has?

This book will have you on the edge of your seat.  Sloan is an evil bastard and he will stop at nothing to get back what belongs to him.  When Melissa starts hearing noises in her house at night I was literally spooked.  Then her necklace goes missing and I thought for sure that Sloan was going to kidnap her and drive Derek to an early grave.  Talk about evoking emotion.  I was seriously anxious to see what was going to happen and of course could not put the book down because if I tried to go to sleep I would be hearing things that go bump in the night.

Tia does a great job developing her characters and you see Melissa only get stronger.  I really enjoyed seeing Patrick and Lainey again and look forward to the next chapter in their story.

If you like alpha males and lots of scorching chemistry pick up Tia’s entire series.  You will be glad you did.
