| Keegan Dalfrey will do anything to save his brother who is being held for ransom by a terrorist group so when billionaire Art Stalling hires him to protect his daughter for enough money to pay off the ransom he WILL protect her. Jen Stallings, on the other hand wants nothing to do with anyone associated with her father but she does need protection. She saw her friend and co-worker murdered and she doesn’t know who is after her or why they murdered her friend. Keegan says it is an extremist ecological group who wants to stop her magma-based power plant operation. Or it could be someone after her for who she is? Who can she trust?
Hot Contract is an action-packed, suspense thriller, with secret operatives, secret societies, psychotic family members, and romance. What more could you ask for in one book? Keegan and Jen are explosive together and it isn’t good for either of them or the mission. But sometimes love just works that way! Jen doesn’t have a clue which way is up as time after time people she thought she knew and could trust seem to betray her but she isn’t a baby about it. Jen is a lot tougher than you’d expect her to be. Keegan, even with the help of his family, doesn’t have much of a handle on what is going on either but he is determined to save Jen, at all cost, and it isn’t just for the money. I got pulled into their drama from the first page and held on by the tips of my fingernails for the ride of my life all the way to the end. This is not a book you can put down and walk away from. I loved it! And as a bonus, the end of the book also sets up a sequel perfectly so I can’t wait until the next installment from Ms. Henley!
