Protecting Isabelle
Soap maker and herbalist Isabelle Zander enjoys a good life in Georgia. She has her best friend, her favorite bar, and a job she loves. Plus, scorching memories of a one-night stand with a man who could very well be her soulmate. A man whose name she doesn’t know.
Isabelle’s idyllic life is upended by a mix-up with the mob, who thinks she stole a bagful of their money. What’s a girl in danger to do but drag her best friend to Haywood Lake, Florida, to live near her former Navy SEAL brother Colt? Surely she’ll be safe there.
Will Blake is searching for the perfect place to settle down, farm, and use the skills he acquired as a SEAL to protect the vulnerable. Following a friend’s advice, he finds the Brotherhood Alliance in Haywood Lake. Maybe its missions will be enough of a distraction to extinguish the memories of a hot one-night stand with a woman who left him wondering if there is such a thing as “the one.”
When fate brings his runaway flame to him, Will starts to think about love and second chances. But first, he’ll have to draw upon all of the skills he’s honed as a SEAL to keep her safe. Can Will and Isabelle’s budding romance survive deadly outside forces, or will they lose each other all over again?

I love alpha romances! I really enjoyed this book and thought Will and Isabella were a great couple. It was also great to see the secondary romance of Colt and Felicia which was unexpected.
These two women have trouble follow them around like crazy and they try so hard to resolve it themselves and then just get in deeper. Will and Colt have their work cut out for them protecting these two.
I thought it had just the right balance of danger, heat, suspense, and action. All my favorites in an alpha romance book! I loved watching the romance between Will and Isabelle go from one night stand to something much more.
Loved the character banter in this book which is a big thing for me. I could picture the conversations happening and really enjoyed that!
This is the first book of Lilas that I've read, but I do look forward to more.

Isabelle and her friend Felicia make soaps and sell them in markets. Meeting a woman brings them problems with the mob and they have to run away.
Will is a former Navy SEAL who works now for Brotherhood Alliance, a group that helps people in need and another type of work that needs their expertise as trained soldiers.
This book was a wild ride to get both women sound and safe, which was not easy work.
The story is full of anticipation, mystery and suspense. It was well-written and there was not a moment to get bored. I liked the close friendship between Isabelle and Felicia and Colt and Will.

Will & Issy are polar opposites that work. Enjoyed the simultaneous story that happens along side. Suspense, steamy romance, awkward moments, banter & action that pulls the team together has you enjoying the pages.

Isabelle and Will had a one night stand, after a night of passion she left before he woke up. Isabelle and her best friend make and sell soap. They end up partying with a girl who accuses them of stealing mob money and drugs. Good story.

Isabelle and Felicia can't seem to stay out of trouble. For Will and Colt, along with the Brotherhood Alliance, it becomes almost a full time job protecting them. This book is so full of action and romance you won't want to put it down.

I liked the premise, but the heroine was kinda stupid. She made some really dumb choices. I would like the story better if she were stronger and more realistic.

Never finished too long and confusing 😕

Never seen two women get in more trouble or trouble finds them. Will and Colt have their hands full that's for sure. Plenty of action, suspense, danger and heat. HEA.
