The CIA are back and they want something from James...

James Thomas thought he’d left his past behind him. For the first time in his life, he actually allowed himself to believe that.

But, on the night that should’ve been the happiest of his life, his world began to crumble around him.

One last job for the CIA. One last job in return for James, Deacon, Samuel and Cami’s freedom. This is the moment Cami has been waiting for—revenge. And this is the moment Samuel has feared since his escape.

The vault of secrets will be cracked open, their lives and pasts exposed.

Can they beat the CIA at their deadly game?

Please note, Brooke recommends reading both the James Thomas Series and the Deacon Thomas Duet prior to reading the Thomas Security Series.

Exactly what you’d expect from a book written by Brooke.

This is the first book in the Thomas Security Mega Series (read the James Thomas series and then the Deacon Thomas mini series first)

Looks like we will finally find more about what went down with James and the CIA. We get in deeper with several of our favourite characters in Thomas security as well as meeting some new ones.

Hot, sexy, suspense filled reading that will have you craving the next book release.

Highly recommended for romance/thriller/crime/action readers everywhere.

I feel like I say this every time.....
AGAIN. Yet AGAIN this author takes your for the ride of a lifetime. She has a serious knack for answering your lingering questions...and then raising ten more it’s place. You legit will never ever ever be able to anticipate what’s going to happen next. Another book continuing the story of James Thomas and his family.....and as always I never want them to end. The twists and turns AGAIN leave you speechless, unable to breathe, and you will furiously turn the pages of the book to know more. There are more twists in this book than a dance club on a Saturday night.....and each one leaves you stunned. I found myself talking OUT LOUD while reading...several WTF moments and No. She. Didn’t. ones too. As a reader who has read them from the very beginning I can’t express the genuine happiness of the supporting characters getting to play a more prominent role. The ones you only get snippets and glimpses of....have you falling in love with more of the Thomas Security team. And I didn’t think it was even possible but it happened. It so happened. I have found myself lying awake at night unable to fall asleep because I’m so immersed in their world and I’m dying to know what happens next. I know I’ll never be able to figure it out because of this authors storytelling capabilities, but dang, I sure have fun trying.
If suspense to the umpteenth degree is your jam, hen you need to read this series from the beginning so we can wallow in our waiting game misery together. But oh what sweet torture it always is.

Wow, Wow, Wow, I can’t believe how much this book blew me away, you couldn’t have torn the kindle from my fingers I was so engrossed.

This is a story that demands to be read more than once! The Vault is a treat for lovers of espionage fiction/romantic thrillers. This book sees the return of the seriously fabulous James Thomas and his team. It is sexy, compelling and filled with intrigue.

The first read through is a frantic turning of pages, skimming for names and answers, and all the while you’re just hoping it’s the answer that, as a reader, you need it to be to not feel cheated. You won’t be, this book is fabulous!

The author, Brooke Sivendra, specializes in thrilling action with an emphasis on romance and vivid storytelling.

I have read the entire series, thinking it couldn’t get better, but it did. Brooke can transport you, you are the book, the characters, the story. I loved learning more about Cami and Samuel and catching up with Deacon, Mak and Marianne.

The twists and turns, oh my I did not see them coming at all!

This book is the start of new trilogy which moves at a cracking pace. I can not wait for the next instalment!

THE VAULT: A Thomas Security Series (The Thomas Security Series Book 1) by Brooke Sivendra is a spin off from the James Thomas series and the Deacon Thomas Duet and just as good if not better. In this book we get to see each of the characters tell their story from their POV and it is just brilliant. Brooke is a master at this genre and none of her books should be missed.
The freedom the gang want so desperately is finally in reach but to get it they must do one last job. But who are the good guys and who are the bad guys? The gang are facing perhaps their biggest threat who will stop at absolutely nothing to take them down and joinig forces with the enemy could lead to their down fall.

In spectacular style there is action and drama, bullets and violence, death and danger, lies and secrets, that is just part of a normal day but the stakes have never been higher. Brookes vivid story telling takes you on an adventure that you don’t want to end. Your heart is pounding right along with the guys as if you are a part of their world.

DO NOT pass up reading these books.

Fantastic

The first book in the Thomas Security Series, a spin off of the James Thomas Series. Here we get to have a look at all the gang from their perspective point of view. A pardon is on the cards for James, Deacon, Cami and Samuel from the CIA, as long as they do something for them. They have been well hidden from the CIA,and have been left alone, but the CIA has been watching the Thomas brothers who have been able to take down organisations that they couldn’t. So they offer them a job and pardons they can’t refuse, on the CIAs terms. But of course James only does what he wants on his terms, he will decide if he does it or not. A thrilling and enjoyable read. Recommended reading. Exciting, I am just about to start the Traitor, no 2 in the series.

Loved it!

I love all the James Thomas books! The Vault is just the latest in this series that I love. Brooke Sivendra has a way with her writing that pulls the reader into the story making them feel like they are on the edge of each story. I love all these characters and can hardly wait for December when the next book comes out. This book left me anxious to read further and find out what will happen next with James & Mak, all the CIA suspense, Cami, Jarrod, Samuel, Deacon and his family!

Great book

Wow what another amazing book. Throughout all the JT books and Deacons duet we’ve met some interesting and amazing characters. This book now brings us more insight into the people closest to James and Deacon. Their stories are intriguing and tragic both at the same time. Altho this book ended on a good note the storyline is ongoing. I cannot wait for the next book. Awesome writing. Compelling from the first page to the last. Highly recommend this book and series.

I have been anticipating reading this since finishing the previous JT books, and it didn't disappoint !!
The main characters return plus a few more. We learn more about Samuel and Cami, and Jarrod is a character we've met previously but he has a larger part in this book.
This is a really good read and it finished much to soon, leaving me waiting for the next book to continue the story.
Well written, good characters, great story, what more could you want !

After reading the the James Thomas Series, the Deacon Thomas Duet and the Soul Series, I didn't think Brooke could top them, how wrong was I. This book was filled with all the cliff hanger action that her previous books contained. It had me on the edge of my seat, hoping my favourite characters didn't die. I couldn't stop reading once I started, then I was desperately disappointed I had finished the book. Now waiting for the next book. Bring on December.

The Vault...

Another marvelous addition to The Thomas Security series. In this book everyone is trying to have some semblance of a "normal life". But in these characters normal is unobtainable. You think you're ready but then here comes another magnificent piece to the JT puzzle. Lots of WTF moments. Unbelievable twists and turns. Dramatic and full of action. I'm not gonna last until the next book.

Thomas Series continues with vigor!

I love the suspense, romance and emotion in this series. This is a great continuation of this series. I really like that this book kept showing us the multiple POVs so we are enticed with more and more pieces of the puzzle to put into place. I like the familiarity of the characters with the natural inclusion of new characters. I can't wait until Dec. To see where else the Thomas story takes us.

Thomas Security

I started reading the James Thomas Series, continued with the Deacon Thomas Series. Could not stop so I read the Vault. I can hardly wait until Dec to read the second book of the Thomas Security Series. I am hooked. I read all these books in six days. I love the characters and the plot is excellent. Some of my favorite reads. James and Deacon are fantastic. I would recommend these books to anyone who likes a good romance and a lot of action.

Warning Short Book with Cliffhanger!!!

I love these series, but I was so mad when I got to the end and it wasn’t the end! 🤯🤯🤯. Now I have to wait until who knows when to read what happens! What a crappy way to get more money. These books are so good the author doesn’t need to sucker us with cliffhangers to get people to buy the next book to finish the story. Just write the whole damn story!! We’ll buy the next book in the series anyway!! I promise!! Very irritating!

Brooke Silvendra does not disappoint.......AGAIN Loved every second of this book. Hated that there was a cliff hanger and I have to wait till December to continue in this story. I wanted MORE ♥♥
But have no doubt I will wait patiently to receive the next book in this series. If you haven't read her books, you are truly missing out on some great entertainment.

Noooooo it can’t finish this way. Just getting to the good part. It was great reconnecting with jt and deacon again. Also learning abit about the backgrounds of the other team members who have become so dear. I find it hard not to like Sebastian the loveable rogue and look forward to seeing how the character develops in the next book.📖

Brooke does it again.

Brooke Silvendra has kept me on the edge of my seat in the past and did not disappoint this time either. She doesn't get old and never finished a book the way you figure she would

The Vault (Brooke Sivendra)

Another well written novel but not as jam packed with action as usual. The story line is a good one and it held my attention from the very first paragraph. Please hurry up with the sequel Brooke

One of best series ever

I cannot say enough good things about James Thomas, and the entire Thomas Security books and characters! The plots are mesmerizing and you cannot wait to see the next twist to the plot. The stories are very well thought out, not predictable but yet believable, and has you rooting for the Thomas Brothers and their family. I cannot recommend this book and all the ones in the series strong enough!
