Product Description:
Ten years ago, Black Ops commando Deke Bronson's bullet left up-and-coming journalist Lexie Murrough paralyzed
It's taken years of painful physical therapy to bring Lexie back from the brink. And Deke is just grateful that she has no memory of his part in the incident that left her injured and him emotionally scarred. He's tried to put the past behind him, leaving the military and joining the Dundee Agency, but he's never been able to forgive himself.…
When Lexie, now head of an international charity organization, begins receiving terrifying threats from the son of the dictator killed during that long-ago operation, it's Deke who's assigned to keep her safe from harm.
Maybe it's fate's way of giving him another chance, but falling for Lexie isn't supposed to be part of the deal. And what if she finally discovers the truth?

Rating:  - What happened to Beverly Barton????
I used to look forward to every Beverly Barton book that came out, so I was excited to get this book. What a big disappointment. First, I have a problem with books that are titled "Romance" when nothing happens until more than 3/4 of the book through. I don't need it to be all about the romance, but this was ridiculous. Also, during the book, Lexie kept saying that the man who saved her was her hero and saved her life, and that it wasn't his fault she got shot because she put herself in the crossfire. ... Read More
Rating: - A page turner, but not in a good way
I love it when I find a book so good, I almost race ahead of myself (and the story), so eager to turn the page and see what's next. This book, I turned the pages quickly just to get to the end and be done with it. (I'm one of those strange people who, no matter how much I dislike a book, usually have to finish it.) I found myself wondering if this was a first draft. That's how it reads to me. Could have benefited tremendously from a good copyedit. The first thing I had a problem with was the voice. These characters ... Read More
Rating: - Good - Semi Predictable
I did enjoy the "romance" of the book with the Protectors feel to it. I had narrowed down the potential suspects well before the the books heroes and in the end had it figured out before the guy gets the girl part. Overall a good read.
Rating:  - Really, Really Good!
Great romantic suspense story! Even if you don't follow Ms. Barton's THE PROTECTORS series, you'll really enjoy this emotional story of Deke Bronson and Lexie Murrough.
Great suspense and intrigue, great romance, and some steamy sexual tension!
Rating: - A Time to Die
Beverly Barton does a good job of writing suspense books. I've read all hers and their all are great. Love a book you can't put down and this is one of those
