My debut novel, Fire and Ice is the first book of the Guardians Series. The Guardians series is about an elite team of operatives who works for or have worked for Artemis Guardian Services (AGS).
AGS or simply "The Guardians" as they are known by most of their clients, specializes in small team surgical incursions: K and R (kidnap and ransom), DoD covert ops that are too politically high-risk, Corporate Security Enforcement (usually involving questionable and deadly force), and protective custody detail outsourced by the US Marshals Service.
The books can be described as action-thriller but the romance is woven heavily into the story. Each book deals with different couples, it is not a three book romance centering on one couple. Each book will also deal with a different 'baddie'.
The Guardian series is not for every one. This book is not for you if:
a) you don't like strong language. The characters in this book are gritty, most of them come from the military like the Navy SEALs or Special Forces. b) you do not like explicit sex scenes. Don't get me wrong, this is far from erotica and the sex scenes are not gratuitous or go on for pages and pages, but they are there. In future books, I might even touch on BDSM. c) you do not like violence. This is an action-thriller. Things get blown up or shot down and it's not in the background, the fight scenes are front and center. In the first chapter alone of Fire and Ice, the body count is high.
An ARC reviewer on Goodreads described it best: "Part Clancy, Part Fifty Shades".
If you are OK with what would be in the book so far, I encourage you to check out the free short story prequel to Fire and Ice - Murder and Silk which is in its raw unedited format. (Fire and Ice has been professionally edited) It'll give you an idea of how the male leads would evolve over the series as it will give you a peek into their sexual proclivities and motivations. Now, this prequel has no romance but is more of an erotic thriller.
