Direct Threat (Protection Inc. #1) by Kimberly Rose Johnson

One little girl.

Two bodyguards.

Only one chance to guard their hearts.

Protection Inc. co-owner, Carissa Jones, an ex-cop turned bodyguard, has one goal—keep her young client safe. When her business partner brings in a new guy to help, she discovers her heart desires more. Can she still do her job and follow her heart without compromising her client’s safety?

Marc Olsen, a former Military Police officer, struggles to find his way as a civilian. He agrees to help out an old friend for the summer. He gets more than he bargained for when he’s assigned to work with the feisty co-owner of Protection Inc.

When sparks fly faster than bullets, will the bodyguards be distracted from their task, or will they work together as an even stronger team?

My Review

This books starts out with action, shots fired, and doesn't let go until the end.
Greed sure brings out the evil in some people and some the characters the author offers us in this read, sure hit the mark.
Ex-police officers have formed their new business in the first book in this new series, Protection Inc, and we meet the new bodyguards, as they begin their new business. We are given Carissa and Frank, well to begin with, more are added as the need arises.
This job involves guarding a ten year old girl, Olivia, and although she is a handful, she is smart and delightful! She does give them a run for their money, and we wonder as the story unfolds if they will be successful?
A great start of this new series, and am looking forward to the next chapter!
I received this book through Celebrate Lit, and was not required to give a positive review.
