Navy SEAL Matt Waterstone knows about keeping people safe. When his best friend’s sister is attacked, Matt promises no harm will come to Ashley Sawyer-not on his watch. But Matt’s not the only protective one. Ashley will do anything to safeguard the residents of the battered women’s shelter she runs. She’s sure she can handle the threats she gets in return. What she can’t handle is the way Matt scales the walls around her heart. Yet when she falls prey to a crime web far more sinister than she’d realized, trusting Matt could be the only way to survive.
My take:~
Liz Johnson has penned a little gem of a romance in A Promise to Protect. There is much to love about Matt and Ashley, two people dedicated to helping others no matter the risk to themselves, and their blossoming romance is sweet and fun as Matt worries about payback from her protective brother. The suspense kicks along at a good pace as the women’s shelter and all Ashley holds dear is threatened, the issues very topical today. If you are looking for a swift and romantic read, look no further than A Promise to Protect, my favourite story of Liz’s to date.
