Parker Security #1-5
Book One
Emmy Bender’s a good girl who lives a quiet life and always does the right thing. Unlike her twin sister, Isa, a famous DJ who lives life on her own terms. But when Isa vanishes one night before a big show, Emmy’s orderly life is thrown into disarray as she embarks on a search to find out just what happened to her sister.
Jason Armstrong is a security guard working at the club the night Isa disappears. As one of the last people to see her, he feels personally responsible. Jason is still trying to come to terms with a troubling incident that occurred a few years ago, something he has had difficulty moving on from. He joins Emmy in her search for Isa, a dangerous journey that will threaten to upend both of their lives.
Book Two
As the daughter of a billionaire business mogul, Stella Brookshire has always lived an easy life, until a suspicious accident ends her blossoming career as a professional cyclist. Determined to get back on the bike, Stella ignores her parents’ pleas to find a safer hobby to pursue. Her father, though, wants to ensure her safety, and hires a bodyguard to go out with Stella on her bike rides. The bodyguard doesn’t last long, though, and neither does the one after him. No one seems to be a match for Stella’s sharp tongue or her vicious wit. But that’s all about to change when Cole O’Keefe enters the picture.
Book Three
Lena Curtis’s life is going pretty well. She’s thirty-four, has a successful career, her own house, and enjoys her time alone. She’s an independent woman who knows she doesn’t need a man to complete her life. In fact, finding a boyfriend is the last thing she’s really looking to do.
All that changes when she meets Shep Parkington, an amateur MMA fighter who is trying to make it pro, all the while escaping the clutches of his ruthless and dangerous family. He isn’t really looking for a relationship either, but neither he nor Lena can deny that there is certainly some serious chemistry between the two of them.
Not everyone is interested in seeing their relationship succeed, though. Shep’s family thinks Lena is too uptight and controlling, and they are willing to go to extreme lengths to get Lena out of the picture for good.
Book Four
Teagan Kelly never planned on becoming a social media star, but when her Instagram account propels her to internet stardom, she reluctantly embraces the role. But when several of her fellow social media influencers are shot dead, Teagan finds that she is suddenly fearing for her life.
Enter Ben Sanders, who meets Teagan by chance and agrees to work as her bodyguard. Ben is still reeling from the disastrous way his previous relationship ended, and he thinks that working with Teagan might be a good way to get his mind off things. Yet all too quickly, Ben and Teagan realize the chemistry between them is too real to deny. Yet despite how good things are between them, there is still a killer on the loose, and people who seem willing to stop at nothing to see that Ben and Teagan don’t stay together.
Book Five
To the outside world, Drew Parker appears to have it all—he’s the owner of a successful security company, he’s wealthy, and he’s devastatingly good-looking. He has an endless supply of first dates and he even plays in a popular underground band. But what people don’t realize is how haunted Drew is after his sister’s disappearance almost two decades ago.
Gwen Lillie is the niece of a charismatic religious cult leader who fled to San Francisco once she turned eighteen.

This was a whole lot of meh for me. The security firm aspect focused on the five owners, so not the grunts who actually had any experience. I was disappointed in this angle of storytelling. This set did not have the romantic heat that Rook did and I was totally disappointed by that.
Book 1 - Jason and Emmy. It was a solid story, but I just never felt any chemistry between them.
Book 2 - Cole and Stella. It took me a while to warm up to Stella, but I eventually got there. Better chemistry between characters, but still not a lot of daring do, ya know?
Book 3 - Lena and Shep. Lena was my least favorite character. She came off as bitchy to Cole in all of their interactions, not sibling-like teasing as the author described . I did like Shep for her, but his family was rough. The drama seemed kind of extreme for the book so far.
Book 4 - Ben and Teagan. I liked the story of this one. But Ben need to find a backbone. Teagan pulled a TSTL move that almost had me throwing my kindle, but of course, it all worked out.
Book 5 - Drew and Gwen. Drew was an ass. “I only do first dates.” What? Why even bother? And Gwen. She was fine, but I couldn’t really ever get into her character. I am glad the mystery was cleared up, but they are way more forgiving than I would be.
All in all, I didn’t love it, I didn’t hate it and I’m bummed that I didn’t get more feels from this one.

Nice and full
I'm gonna be honest... These are good stories, with the bonus of not being so tired together that you have to read them in any order of straight through. You can take your time. They are very full stories, and that's good... Except that it also dragged in places and that interrupted the flow. (That's the missing star) The heat level is not low middle with some topics that are spicer than any actual sex scenes. A few little errors scattered throughout. I recommended it, just understand that you may want to step away for a few minutes rest between books.

Couldn't Finish
The title is Parker Security but the stories have less to do about security and more one on one encapsulated story.
The first book was about a DJ who disappeared while the team was providing security.
The security team didn't even bother to find her!
So anticlimactic.
The second book, I didn't even finish.
The writing wasn't engaging and I didn't care about either main character.
And what was the point of everyone wanting to go to Ibiza?
I really tried but this series isn't of me.

Addicting.
I read everything I can of Camilla Blake's. Love the characters and the heat and fun dialogue.
Only complaint would be a better editing team. I find that the wrong character names are used frequently in your stories. It is disconcerting, but I know the story so can adjust in my head.
Keep 'em coming!

Parker Security!
This was an interesting box set . Each story was unique. Some of the characters in the box set were very selfish and caused a lot of drama. The last book, the character Drew I didn't understand. It was never explained why he chose to only go on first dates and not sleep with anyone.

Predictable
I found this collection somewhat repetitive man meets woman some trouble hits along the way but all ends in a happy ending. Each story followed a fairly predictable format perhaps only Drew and Gwen's story was a little different. The series was an okay read but each book dragged at times.

Love in the strangest of places
A security team who are not related by blood but are still a family. Each book features all the characters but each book is based on one member of the team. Another brilliant read from CB.

Security loves
I did enjoy this set of books...I read to be entertained, and this particular author informed in a very subtle way as well. Knowing very little about the security business, I got just a small glimpse into why people seek security.

Amazing
What a way to end my summer break. Mystery, romance, murder, excitement exuding from each and every aspect. I really loved how perfectly balanced the overlap of each story there was with the grand finale.

This is a series you don't want to miss.
The stories got better the more you read and the characters are so well developed and the chemistry is off the charts. If you only get one series this year you should really consider this one.

I really enjoyed reading this box set. I like that each book was its own story but still linked all together. I could not put it down.

very Boring
The stories in this combination were just not that interesting. For a security company, the jobs and characters were pretty boring.
