Fatal Judgment by Irene Hannon

Fatal Judgment (Guardians of Justice, #1) (Center Point Christian Mysteries)

by Irene Hannon

U.S. Marshal Jake Taylor has seen plenty of action during his years in law enforcement. But he'd rather go back to Iraq than face his next assignment: protection detail for federal judge Liz Michaels. His feelings toward Liz haven't warmed in the five years since she lost her husband--and Jake's best friend--to possible suicide. How can Jake be expected to care for the coldhearted workaholic who drove his friend to despair?

As the danger mounts and Jake gets to know Liz better, his feelings slowly start to change. When it becomes clear that an unknown enemy may want her dead, the stakes are raised. Because now both her life--and his heart--are in mortal danger.

Full of the suspense and romance Irene Hannon's fans have come to love, Fatal Judgment is a thrilling story that will keep readers turning the pages late into the night.

*Just wrote my review and it disappeared. I hate that. Here we go again.*

Normally when I write a review about a book like this the first that I would tell you is that this is not my genre. Mostly I find myself in Christian Historical Fiction, however from time to time I do enjoy a good adventure. I would not really call this book an adventure, however it is romantic suspense. I was completely captivated from page one. Contemporary is not a place I often call home, and this is scary and gritty and real, but the characters grabbed me and wouldn't let me go. I highly recommend this read and definitely would not hesitate to read more from Irene Hannon in the future.
