Resumen del Editor

She’s in danger, and now her personal protector is her too handsome, totally aggravating billionaire boss.

Executive assistant Harlow Carlson is having a very bad week. Firstly, she’s been temporarily reassigned to work for bossy, workaholic tyrant, Easton Norcross. He might be sex in a suit, but mostly she just wants to stab him with her stylus. Secondly, her father’s in trouble and has gone missing. Lastly, when a strange man attacks her on the street, Harlow knows she’s in over her head.

That’s when Easton steps in. Now her boss is her own personal protector, and he isn’t taking no for an answer.

After he left the Army Rangers, Easton Norcross found a purpose in building his company, Norcross Inc. He works hard, likes control, takes care of his family and employees, and thrives on making money. But his new assistant pushes buttons he never knew he had. Harlow’s smart, efficient, and not afraid to speak her mind. And her curvy body makes it very hard to remember that he’s her boss.

But when he sees she’s in danger, Easton is willing to break all the rules to keep her safe.

As danger swirls around Harlow and she’s sucked into her father’s dangerous dealings, Easton knows he’ll need all the specialist skills the Army gave him to protect her, as well as pulling in his brothers at Norcross Security. But the toughest job he’ll have is convincing his beautiful assistant to take the biggest risk of all - falling in love.

Note to listeners: This is a sexy, fast-paced romance with lots of action-packed suspense, a heroine in danger, and a hot billionaire boss, who’ll do anything to protect her.

Guilty pleasure

This series is my guilty pleasure. Ridiculously hot. and skilled protective alpha males falling for women who are not shrinking violets, but still find themselves in need of some help. I am currently re-listening to the series and I would describe it as taking a Hollywood action movie infused with the essence of Cosmo and GQ magazines, add explicit sex scenes, shake like a martini and out comes this romantic suspense series.

Love the Norcross series

These books are fantastic and I read them over and over I love how the characters are adorable bad with regular problems thanks so much looking forward to the next😊

Awesome

There’s nothing better than a Norcross Security book playing in the ear buds while working! Loved it!

So so good! (and even better with the narration)

First this book is action packed! Harlow's father (definitely not father of the year material) has gone into debt and the people are now coming after her. She started as an assistant to Easton Norcross and he just wants to protect her. He's growly, protective, totally alpha and I adored their relationship (Think a lot of banter- she gives as good as she gets and these two made me laugh a lot at their snarkiness). There is a lot of steam and I also loved to see prior and future characters make their appearances. I can't wait to get deeper and deeper into this series because these are really fun characters! While this is the third in a series but can be read as a standalone although this whole series is really great, full of action and intrigue.

So, I read the ebook first and loved it but then I had the opportunity to listen to the audiobook and it was amazing. Ok, I have to admit that I love Teddy Hamilton and he's one of my favorite authors. But his ability to play multiple characters, his slightly growly tough voice and his voice modulation really make him one of the best narrators today. He was perfectly cast but so too was Stella Bloom, who also did a fantastic job playing all characters, female or male and I love her voice. Overall, a fantastic narration for an excellent book.

Excitement, action, love. Great!

This book is great! This is Harlow and Easton's love story. It is full of suspense and great action scenes and it kept me glued to the story. I love the interaction of the characters and the way the men are so loyal and so sensual (though I don't like the graphic sex). The performance is pretty good but not my favorite. However, this is really an entertaining story!

Another good one

This author writes sexy romantic suspenses like no one. My fave elements? Her heroines aren’t complete damsel in distress; her alpha males are capable of giving up control; pace and action are good. With this book, she adds another good one to her series.

The Norcross family is wealthy, so the fact that Easton is a billionaire isn’t a new element. The little special flavor here is the office romance aspect, as Harlow works for him. It adds a touch of forbidden to the story, which means denial, secrets, and of course office shenanigans. I love that. That also means a shift in the relationship, between boss/employee and victim/protector. Very different dynamics for sure.

It helps defining the characters. Easton is a tyran in the office, but once the woman he’s interested in is in danger, he shows her a completely different side of him. As for Harlow, she’s in charge with her family, but she can follow orders at her job, and she’ll fight before letting anyone help her when she ends up in a dangerous situation. They’re complex characters, and they have to meet somewhat in the middle. A middle they spend the whole book searching for.

The suspense part was just complicated enough to offer a couple of twists without risking plotholes. It may not be the most gripping story–because the Norcross family is powerful enough to be their own deus ex machina–but it does the job. You get Harlow in danger a few times, Easton scared for her, then angry at the people who want to arm her, and that creates the tension that pushes them together.

The whole Norcross clan makes an appearance with their spouse, even the parents. It was nice to see the siblings in a less formal situation.

The narrators from the previous books come back, and they do a good job once again. Sometimes the female narrator brought less energy than the male narrator, but it was overall quite good. I’ll keep listening to the series for sure.

Loved it

Great story! Love, suspense, and mystery. These two have chemistry. The heroines dad made a huge financial mistake and the bad guys want his daughter as payment. The hero is not going to have that. Enjoyable story.

Amazing Series!

This is the third book in the amazing Norcross Security Series, an amazing Romantic Suspense. Easton and Harlow's story is suspenseful, action packed, and fast-paced, filled with mystery and twists and turns. Harlow is funny, sassy, determined, and talkative! Easton is handsome, protective, and caring. They are such fantastic characters, and they are perfect together! The supporting characters are amazing. I loved the characters, the storyline, and the happy ending. Stella Bloom and Teddy Hamilton did an outstanding job with the narration. They are perfect as Harlow and Easton. I am looking forward to listening to The Bodyguard, Vandor's story, the next book in the Series. I HIGHLY recommend this Series!

Loved it

Anna Hackett always does an amazing job with telling a story!! Stella Bloom and Teddy Hamilton bring the book to life!! Loved every minute of this book can’t wait for Bodyguard

Another hit

I love this family and their stories. This is no different. I only took off one star because although Harlow didn’t want Easton for his money, the banter constantly included reminders about his wealth. It became annoying
