The action, adventure, and romance continue in the fantastic second book of the Elite Guardians: Savannah series. You could easily pick this book up without having read the first book in this series or any books in any of the earlier connected series of novels. It can easily stand alone.
This story was simply captivating from the first page to the last. I loved that Jonah and Noelle had become close friends due to an injury that Jonah helped Noelle recover from. They were more open with each other than with any other people around them, however, both characters also held some deep hurts and secrets that they still hadn’t shared when the story began.
Yet it quickly became evident that there was a potential link between the threats on Jonah’s life and something horrible that had happened to Noelle when she was a teenager. The way these two had to learn to trust each other and the gentle care and love that Jonah showed to Noelle each time her insecurities rose to the surface was a testament to the kind of man he was. I loved this story from start to finish.

So, maybe not.
Meanwhile, Jonah can’t ignore the growing desire he feels for Noelle. If only he knew he wasn’t going to destroy their friendship…
And then, tragedy strikes—the sudden death of a colleague rocks his world, and Jonah knows that there’s more to the incident than meets the eye. In fact, he may have been the intended target. Now he needs Noelle…not just as a friend, but as a protector.
