Under Fire

Written by Lynn H. Blackburn

Narrated by Kate Forbes

They'll protect the president if it's the last thing they do … and it just might be.

USSS Special Agent Zane Thacker has landed his dream assignment protecting the president of the United States. When the president plans a fundraiser at the exclusive estate of a political supporter in Raleigh, Zane is thrilled to be working
again with Special Agent Tessa Reed, his best friend—and the woman he desperately wishes could be more.

Though Tessa almost lost everything, she battled her demons and came out on the other side healthy and healed. But when her role as the liaison between the Raleigh office and the president’s protective detail wrenches her past back into
the present, her greatest failure threatens to come to light.

Zane refuses to let Tessa go through this alone. But can he stand by the woman he loves and protect the president from a mounting threat at the same time?

Reviews for Under Fire

[Naomi Shores · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Since the first book I have been waiting on Zane and Tessa's story. They have a history that is brought to the foreground in this story. Their relationship is based on a friendship that distance can't break. Zane Fletcher has his dream job of being Secret Service agent to the president and Tessa Reed works for the Secret Service branch in Raleigh. When the president is invited to a party at the home of one of his dearest friends Zane returns as part of the protection detail and gets to work with his old friends including Tessa Reed who is in charge of the protection detail while the president is in Raleigh. When threats are made on her life, the team works together to not only protect the president but to make sure Tessa stays safe. This story is full of humor, romance, intrigue, suspense, forgiveness, friendships, and a faith in God. It was fun to have the characters from Carrington (another series) show up and help out. This was a great ending to this series and I can't wait to read the next one.

3.5 stars. Listened via Scribd audiobook.

Parts of this book really captured me and I love the couple. Their progression was beautiful to witness.

At times I felt a little confused about the case and all the characters. It was nice to see characters from last books make an appearance. My interest and engagement just wasn’t as consistent with this book as with the past books.

While Kate Forbes is a strong narrator, I felt like she’s not the right fit for these books.
