John "Tex" Keegan thought his Clearwater vacation would be nothing but smooth sailing, cocktails, and baby making with his wife, Melody. But not even a week into his belated honeymoon, the past hurtles to the present to haunt him. And, the ghosts won't let go. Tex is taken back in time to a dark place, a time before he lost his leg, and before he became a Navy Seal. A time when a young Beauty suffered on his watch. And she wasn't alone. There were others. So many needless victims on his watch. Katarina Marino has moved on with her life. Orphaned, a ward of the state, kidnapped, a sex slave, and preyed upon by a serial killer, she has been to hell and back. Though she survived it all, her past may threaten her future once more.
Protecting Beauty by MJ Nightingale was published in July 2016. This book is the fifth book in The Bounty Hunters - The Marino Bros. series.
I loved Tex in all the books from Susan Stoker so I was excited to see how other authors had him in their stories. Susan Stoker allows certain authors to use some of her characters and her world to create in. I absolutely loved this book in that we get to find out more about Tex background. In books previously that he is in you don't know much about his background. Even in his own book. So to learn more about the beloved awesome character background it was fun to see. I also love how you learn more about Katarina. This book was not just full of backgrounds. It had it's own story-line that played great in revealing background of both sides but also has their own climax. There is not much romance in this book as Katarina is married and so is Tex to other people. Though you get to see some of how they treat their spouses. I highly recommend checking out this quick read.
