Defenseless (Somerton Security, #1)

by Elizabeth Dyer

How far will she go to protect the sexiest guy in tech?

When ex-marine Georgia Bennett left the military for high-end private security, it was supposed to soften her snarky attitude. Instead, her short fuse just earned her a punishment of an assignment: protect smart-ass tech genius and Department of Defense contractor Parker Livingston. It should have been easy—only no one warned Georgia that Parker was one seriously drop-dead-gorgeous geek.

The last thing Parker needs is a bodyguard, especially not one with killer curves and a sassy mouth who tempts him to do something incredibly stupid. He’s too busy investigating whoever is turning his technology against him and threatening his team of covert operatives. But when an assassin sends Georgia and Parker running for their lives, it might just be the explosive sexual chemistry and the trust that’s building between them that saves their necks. Because the only thing more dangerous than the combination of Parker’s intellect and Georgia’s aim is their steadfast desire to protect each other, no matter the cost.

I really enjoyed this. It wasn't perfect but it was easily a solid four stars. Georgia was a gem of a character. She was strong and brave and fierce and Parker was intelligent and sensitive and caring and it was really interesting to see the dynamic between the two and the developing relationship. I can't say I've read many books with such a strong role reversal (and funny enough the other is also published by Montlake - [b:Storm Warning|26088900|Storm Warning (Security Specialists International, #4)|Monette Michaels|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1441200900l/26088900._SX50_.jpg|46029227]) but it worked well. The mystery was interesting and I love when these sorts of conspiracy's play out over multiple books. I can't wait to read the next one.
