Into the Fury (BOSS, Inc.) Into the Fury (BOSS, Inc.)
I've finished "Into the Fury" the 1st book in her BOSS Inc. series by Kat Martin.
Product Description
A bodyguard, a bounty hunter, a P.I. -- the men of Brodie Operations Security Service, Inc. are down for the job.
Sinners, whores, and sluts beware -- your time is at hand: a faceless menace is threatening lingerie models on a cross country tour, and Ethan Brodie is there to defend and protect.
Ethan's learned the hard way that beauty is no substitute for character. So even though Valentine Hart is one of the most breathtaking women he's ever seen, he's keeping his hands off and his eyes open. Or that's what he tells himself.
Then one of the models is murdered, and the closer Ethan gets to the answers, the closer he finds himself to Valentine -- and the hotter the pressure feels. There's more to Val -- more to the other girls -- than he could have guessed. But one is keeping a secret that could kill them all.

Against the Sun (Thorndike Press Large Print Core Series) [Large Print] [Hardcover]
I've finished "Against the Sun" the 6th book in her Raines in the Wind Canyon series by Kat Martin.
Product Description
Millions of lives are on the line. But for him, only one truly matters.
It's not in bodyguard Jake Cantrell's job description to share his suspicions with his assignments. Beautiful executive Sage Dumont may be in charge, but Jake's not on her payroll. As a former special forces marine, Jake trusts his gut, and it's telling him there's something off about a shipment arriving at Marine Drilling International. His instinct is aroused ... in more ways than one.
A savvy businesswoman, Sage knows better than to take some hired gun's "hunch" as gospel. And yet she is learning not to underestimate the man her grandfather hired to protect her. Determined to prove Jake wrong, Sage does some digging of her own and turns up deadly details she was never meant to see.
Drawn into a terrifying web of lies and deceit - and into feelings they can't afford to explore - what Jake and Sage uncover may be frighteningly worse than they ever imagined.

Mass Market Paperback: 400 pages
Publisher: Mira (May 29, 2012)

ISBN-13: 978-0778313502
My Review:
Sage Dumont works for her grandfather at Marine Drilling International and she is next in line. She has worked hard to get where she is and she has to seal a deal to buy some used drilling equipment from a Saudi Arabian Sheik. Her grandfather hires a bodyguard from Atlas Security to protect Sage because he believes their is a huge threat with bringing a Saudi Arabian Sheik to Houston.
Jake Cantrell used to be Special Forces so he is familiar with Saudi Arabian protocols. He teaches Sage and anyone she needs to learn the protocol and to help provide protection.
Sage isn't too happy with having a bodyguard but she doesn't know the first thing how to act or speak around a Sheik and doesn't want to offend him or his family. She also isn't too happy about her strong attraction to this big brute of a man even though she is engaged to man she believes society and her grandfather would be happy with.
Jake is strongly attracted to Sage but he doesn't get involved with other man's women especially engaged ones. He comes up with a solution that he would provide protection for Sage and help her with her negotiations with the Sheik.
This book was very fast paced with a lot of intrigue and a hot romance. The only thing that prevented me in giving this book a 5 was Sage's attitude that Jake is the wrong man for her to marry. Glad her grandfather had that talk with her to show her error of her ways.
4.5/5

Against the Fire (The Raines of Wind Canyon) [Mass Market Paperback]
I've finished "Against the Fire" the 2nd book in her Raines of Wind Canyon series by Kat Martin.
Product Description
You can't fight what you can't see. And Gabriel Raines can't be sure just who's setting the fires in his new real-estate development. When two fires hit back-to-back, he knows it's personal, but any number of competitors or ex-employees could be the arsonist.
The police suspect Angel Ramirez, a local teen who's been in trouble before. But Mattie Baker, a volunteer at the Family Abuse center, just can't believe the kid she's been working with would go back to his delinquent ways.
Determined to convince Gabe that she's right, Mattie must get close to him and find out who's putting their neighborhood in jeopardy. And just as the arsonist's flames continue to burn, they find a heat developing between them. It might just turn into a full-fledged fire … if they can survive long enough.

My Review:
Real estate developer Gabriel Raines who is interested in restoring old and run down buildings with structure. When a structure developed by Gabriel is burnt down a teen age boy Angel Ramirez is arrested. Angel was convicted of being an arsonist several years ago and he was seen at the crime scene.
Mattie Baker a Family Abuse center volunteer doesn't believe that Angel sent the building on fire. She has been working with him to rebuild his life by finishing school and is determined to prove it. Mattie and Gabriel decide to work together to figure out who is setting the fires and as they investigate further they realize it's personal.
Mattie has her reasons why she doesn't want to get involve with man like Gabriel. Gabriel realizes he wants more than a one night stand with Mattie. He manages to break down her wall and their love affair is very hot and steamy.
I really enjoyed the dynamics between Gabriel and his brothers Jackson and Devlin and how they help him in his investigation. You can feel the strong bond they all share with one another.
4/5
