Synopsis:


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 fiancĂ©e.

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 coloring outside the lines 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.

Note: Standalone, M/F, HEA.

Excerpt:


Nikki continued talking, but I wasn’t listening. Cold realization flashed in my brain like lightening striking a tree.
Jessica Black. It was the name on the email Melissa had put in front of me that day she visited our offices. The day she dropped a nuke on all my dreams of a life with her, when she revealed my former “mentor,” her ex-husband Sloan Reynolds’s secret double-life. He had high-end escorts all over the country, and Jessica Black was his first careless slip. Melissa had found it.
Nikki was still reminiscing as I spun around in my chair, shaking my computer awake. Fingers flying over the keys, I pulled up all the information I could find on the dead girl.
She’d been living in Baltimore for a year. I wondered if she followed him from wherever they’d hooked up the first time. Why would she do that? Was it possible she was in love with him? Was it for the money? Had he promised her anything?
It didn’t matter. She’d disappeared off the police blotter from the time she arrived there until now, when she’d turned up dead.
Reasons scrolled across my brain of all the possible causes of death, but looking at her beaten face, all I could see was the photo Melissa had put in front of me all those months ago.
My instincts were on high alert. Sloan was getting antsy, and I knew what he wanted. Jessica Black might look like the real thing, but she wasn’t it.
Substitutes would never fill the possession he felt. I’d followed enough of these twisted fucks to know. He was coming for Melissa, and it was just a matter of when.

I HEART BOOKS REVIEW


One To Protect by Tia Louise
Review by Jennifer Ballam
Stars: 4.5 


We first met Derek and Melissa in One To Hold. It was in this book that we learnt the truth about her husband. If you haven’t read this book then I have to say that although they are slated that they can be read as stand alones I have to say that you would definitely have a better understanding of what is going on and the deep feelings that are held by the characters if the previous books were read first.



Derek and Melissa are happy despite still not located in the same place. They have a baby on the way and they are still insanely attracted to one another and the intimate scenes certainly reflect that!! They are smoking hot! The only blight on their happiness is the same problem they were facing previously, Melissa’s e- husband. He is up to his old tricks, and some new ones it would seem. Derek on a case that he is on discovers something troubling things and sets in motion a plan to end Sloan’s, for want of a better phrase, reign of terror.


The way that the plan pans out is a satisfying one if not worrying. The way that it ends leads me to think that this may not be the end of the story but I guess only time will tell in regards to this. I for one hope that they get their HEA, they do at the end of this but, as I say, there is a distinct possibility that this is not the end.
