Publisher's summary

Can you call someone an enemy if you haven’t seen them for the better part of a decade?

Deacon Black is perfectly content with the status quo - work, sleep, repeat. Who cares if he’s rigid, structured, and set in his ways?
It’s a job requirement that keeps his men safe and his company’s doors open.

One phone call is all it takes to upend his life and land him right back into a past he has tried to forget.

Revisiting old ghosts is the last thing he needs.

Especially when the forced trip down memory lane includes the only woman he never wanted to see again.

Annalise Grimaldi hit the jackpot with her life - from her trust fund to her best friend, she has it all.

But her world comes crashing to a halt when her best friend vanishes - leaving behind an apartment in tatters and more questions than answers.

There’s only one person she can think of that can help in a situation like this.

She hates to make the call, but there isn’t a thing she wouldn’t do to make sure her friend is found.

Even setting aside her hatred for Deacon Black.

Hostile Territory

I was absolutely blown away by this one. I could not stop listening till the very end at 6am in the morning. Marie James put some twist and turns into this one. I can’t wait to grab the next one. So happy listening or reading. Which ever you choose.

Hellz Yeah!

First of all..Jacob Morgan!!! That man can read the dictionary to me and I would be happy.

I read this book when it first came out but let me tell you, the audio book was fantastic.

Deacon Black, owner of Blackbridge Security, gets a call from the past. His ex-wife's BFF, Anna, calls Deacon for help as she thinks that Dani, the ex, may be dead as there are cops all over Dani's condo and blood everywhere.

Totally binge worthy.

Fantastic audiobook.

The day his divorce became final was the day Deacon thought that his ex Dani and everyone connected to her where out of his life for good however eight years later he gets a call from Annalise (Anna), Dani’s best friend, she’s extremely upset as there’s been an incident within Dani’s apartment and someone’s been taken out on a stretcher covered in blood. The news sends Deacon into protective mode, as he sets out to help keep Anna safe as he’s tries to find out what’s going on with his ex.

Dani’s the type that’s always loved being the center of attention, always putting herself first no matter what the cost is to others, Anna’s been happy to stay in the background, all she’s ever wanted was a true friend and she’s only ever saw the best in Dani, that’s until now, she’s beginning to see her for her true colours, and the aren’t very pretty at all. Anna turned to Deacon for help as she knew he’d to anything for his ex wife, she didn’t expect him to protect and keep her safe at all costs, including both their hearts.

This was a fantastic start to what’s set to be another amazing series from the talented Ms James, I was hooked from start to finish, great narrators made the book a joy to listen to.

Excellent beginning to a new series!!

Man oh man, what a wonderful start!! Anna and Deacon have had a hate/hate relationship for years. He was married to her beastie for years, but that didn't end well. Now, years later, Anna calls Deacon for help and he will do everything in his power to make sure she stays safe. Steamy with a side of suspense. Puff Daddy will have you laughing so hard you cry. Jacob Morgan was fantastic from the start. I had make myself listen to Callie Dalton, but after awhile she grew on me. She really fits Anna to a T.

New Series New Love

What a fantastic start to a new series by Marie James. I loved it but not gonna lie I think my favorite was Puff Daddy. Wanna know who Puff Daddy is check out Hostile Territory. This audio book has an easy flow story was easy to follow. Characters had undeniably chemistry even though they tried to deny it. The audio book brought the characters to life for me. Excited to hear more from this series.
A past they both had they felt neither had grown or change from when they were younger.
This book has it all suspense, heat, hilariousness, and most importantly love. So check out this new series.
