The Protective SEAL

THE PROTECTIVE SEAL                       LESLIE NORTH

Jack Williams has never felt so lost. For him, being a Navy SEAL wasn’t just a job, it was a way of life. Protecting people had always been his strength, until a career-ending injury forced him into retirement. He’s struggling to start over when he stumbles across a car in a ditch, springing him back into action. Only this is no random citizen in distress. He knows the pretty face behind the wheel. Intimately. In fact, there’s a good chance the baby in her arms is his. 

One year ago, Samantha Engel was forced into witness protection to escape her ruthless mob-boss father. Jack had been her protector, and seeing her again now, in desperate need of help, stirs up a flood of emotions that catch Jack off-guard. Scheduled to testify against her dad, Sam is now on the run. Her father’s offering a pretty penny to anyone who can silence her for good. Jack may not the protector he once was, but he knows one thing for sure: if Sam and her baby are in trouble, he’s not letting them out of his sight. 

With tensions running high and temptations running higher, Sam readily puts her life in Jack’s capable hands. Once the only person she could trust, she’d feared her daughter would grow up never knowing the man she owed her life to. But being back in Jack’s arms—and his bed—makes her heart pound like no time has passed. With the mob threat closing in, Jack knows failure isn’t an option. But even if they survive, Jack will have to fight to find a way to keep Sam and her daughter under his protection, or risk having to say good-bye again—this time for good. 

PAT'S REVIEW

A story about a Seal who had to retire because of an injury. Now later he comes across a car that is in a ditch and he knows the person in the car and she has a baby as well. He had rescued her about a year earlier and they spent a night together and now he is a father but besides that, he knows she is supposed to be under protection by the Marshalls. After finding what happened he begins to prepare to leave when they are attacked and for the most part this is the story. Running from her father’s people so she won’t testify against him. He does not think he will be good at it since he still cares for her but of course, he does not tell her right away. A good fast-paced story with a lot of action.
