Mine to Keep

Protection Series

De: Kennedy L. Mitchell

Narrado por: Teddy Hamilton, Maxine Mitchell

An unlikely friendship, a stalking ex, and a serial killer on the loose.

FBI profiler Charlie Bekham prides himself on three unique talents: hacking any database, making women swoon with a cocky smirk, and letting no one see the desperate man buried deep. When a string of murders in Louisville, KY, requires extra help, he’s forced to partner with the brilliant yet shy Special Agent Rhyan Riggs to hunt the killer. Long nights of working the case fan the growing attraction between them, making Charlie question if “just friends” is enough.

Special Agent Rhyan Riggs is running from her past - a narcissistic ex, to be exact. Determined to move on from the terrible breakup, she focuses solely on her career…until him. Special Agent Charlie Bekham. Covered in tattoos, cocky as hell, and bad-boy hot, he’s exactly the type she should avoid at all costs but can’t seem to stay away from.

With more victims and at a dead end, Rhyan does the unthinkable - she puts herself in the killer’s sights. When the killer takes the bait and disappears with the woman Charlie’s fallen for, can he piece together the remaining clues before Rhyan becomes the next body found?

Mine to Keep is the fourth book in the interconnected stand-alone Protection Series. Each book can be listened to as a stand-alone, but because of character crossover, starting from book one, Mine to Protect, is suggested. Due to foul language, discussion of emotional abuse, mention of suicide, and detailed intimate scenes, this book is recommended for listeners 18+.

Suspenseful with great narration

This a great book that grips you from the beginning. Great buildup to this suspenseful story along the way….the ending was very unexpected and intense. Rhyan is a bit on the quiet side, lacks some confidence but is a great investigative profiler. Charlie is a patient, kind and confident man…especially behind closed doors. He is also a great investigate profiler. Their jobs is what bring them together. They have an intense attraction and try to keep their feelings in check but the draw to one another is unstoppable. Charlie is so good to her and takes his time so he doesn’t push her too fast. They are very passionate and intense…Charlie is a talker. Looking forward to listening to the other books in the series. Teddy Hamilton and Maxine Mitchell are the dream duo. I love their voices and they do an amazing job with this performance. Teddy’s voice is strong, intense and smexy which is perfect for Charlie. Maxine’s voice is so warm, smooth and caring which is perfect for Rhyan. I love how narrators bring a whole new experience to enjoying a book.

Loved the Story AND the Narration!

The fourth book in Kennedy Mitchell’s Protection Series, “Mine to Keep,” is a dark, super steamy romance that kept me on the edge of my seat as I listened and read along! I had never heard of this series before, but Book 4 sucked me in, and I immediately picked up the earlier stories as well. Charlie and Rhyan have amazing chemistry, and that absolutely shines through with the narrating talents of Teddy Hamilton and Maxine Mitchell. Oh my goodness, Teddy has this way of infusing intensity and emotion into his gorgeous voice, and the strength that Maxine puts into Rhyan’s character really brings it to life for me. The suspense, the steamy bits, and all that good stuff made me an instant fan, and I can’t wait for more!

Action packed romantic suspense!

Man oh, man. I loved Ryhan and Charlie so much and was hooked from the prologue. “Mine to Keep” is an actionpacked, steamy and unputdownable romantic suspense that pulled me in with the premise of the serial killer storyline and kept me to the end as Rhyan and Charlie worked to solve the case.

Charlie Beckham is one of the newest FBI profilers and has been working hard to excel and move up in the FBI. Special Agent Rhyan Riggs is also new to the area and has been working to leave her past behind her. When Charlie gets a request from Louisville, Rhyan volunteers to go with him and help solve a string of murders that have been targeting women. As the two work together, the obvious chemistry comes out and they grow closer. But as the work on solving the case, Rhyan quickly realizes the way to catch the killer… is to become one of their possible victims.

I loved Rhyan from the start. She’s smart, a bit quirky, genuine and is one amazing agent. Rhyan suffers from anxiety and it was in the story respectfully. It brought up no matter who you are, anxiety can be a part of your life but it can be managed. I connected with her right from the start and loved everything about her. And Charlie… I love a confident man who knows who he is and isn’t afraid to be himself. His confidence was so attractive and I fell for him right along with Rhyan. I loved the serial killer storyline and the plot twists that were thrown in were so good. I could not stop listening once I started and finished in one sitting.

Teddy Hamilton and Maxine Mitchell are phenomenal as Charlie and Rhyan. Teddy did a great job of bringing Charlie’s protectiveness and alpha side out perfectly. Maxine brought Ryhan’s amazing personality to life and I loved how I could hear her find her confidence as the story went on.

SERIOUS PAGE TURNER!

Kennedy L. Mitchell has done it again! I have followed this series from the beginning. Each book is better than the last, and the first just pulled me right in! Suspenseful, sexy and so hard to put down. FIVE STARS FROM ME!

Hot and Suspenseful!

Mine to Keep is book #4 in the Protection series by Kennedy L. Mitchell. I previously read the first book in the series. I know there's some crossover with certain characters, but it didn't impact the story to the point where I felt lost or confused. That being said, this was a really enjoyable romantic suspense! The main characters are Rhyan and Charlie, both FBI profilers and the way they went about their jobs was super interesting to me. The story itself was intriguing and kept me engaged from start to finish.

Rhyan was a smart lady with great intuition and a tough exterior, but on the inside, she was anxious and had low self confidence due to a previous relationship. Charlie was tattooed, pierced and fit (aka sexy!) but didn't do well with all the attention he got from the ladies and a nerd at heart. Together they had great chemistry and were a great team.

Teddy Hamilton and Maxine Mitchell narrated this book and did an excellent job. Teddy always sounds amazing and he will forever be one of my favs. Maxine is excellent in her own right and is fantastic at bringing the right amount of vulnerability to the character. I always enjoy books narrated by this amazing duo!
