Running Scared

Rate this book
On the run with nowhere to go

Declan Elliot has fully recovered following serious injuries obtained while protecting Jamal West from danger. The ink isn't yet dry on the contract for Declan to become COBRA Securities' newest agent when Jamal's life is threatened again. Declan drops everything to rush to his rescue.

Kenzie Bryant reported her boss for harassment and was unceremoniously fired from her job as an editor. On the same day she was canned, she learned her beloved aunt had died. As Kenzie is clearing out her aunt's condo, a ruthless gang sets their sights on the young boy in the unit next door and Kenzie is caught in their crosshairs.

On the run for their lives, Declan and Kenzie fall in love while teaming up to evade and outwit the killers. As they race to discover why the gang is targeting a seven-year-old boy, the threats become increasingly violent and deadly. Time is running out to uncover the motive and neutralize the threat before it’s too late.

Running scared😱

Wow, I feel like this book has been burning a hole in my kindle since May and I’ve finally put my A into G now that I know that there’s another one burning a hole...namely Iron Cross🤩

This story is action packed from the word go and features the little boy who we came to love in Peyton’s story, Jamal❣️Jamal and Declan hit it off and now that Jamal is potentially in danger again, he calls on Declan’s help and Kenzie, their next door neighbour gets caught in the cross hairs too😳

A fabulous story and I can’t wait to get stuck in the next one😍

Fabulous

I have read the first 19 books in the series and am hoping to continue with more. The stories are great. Well thought out and very interesting. The characters are great. My favorite is Kai! Who knew the kids in this series were going to steal the show. I can't wait for more! It shows a great story when even knowing you can pick it up again in the morning you just can't put it down to go to sleep. Thank you so much for the great reads and keep them coming!!

Holy wow

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this story. Kenzie went through quite a bit of craziness in regards to her work place and then being kidnapped several times and Declan has his share also, but the precious little boy, Jamal at the tender , age of eight also has his share of craziness as well. Thank goodness kids are so resilient and Jamal loves life at the end. I really hope we get a book about Eric down the road as well. Happy reading.

WOW!

What a novel! This is an amazing adventure. Declan, Kenzie, and Jamal are just wonderful together. Jamal is correct, they do make a wonderful threesome. This little family is just sweet. The action, danger, romance, and excitement start at page one and continues through out the novel. Now hopefully Eric, Gage, and the Harmon sisters will get their stories told also. This is the first novel in the series I have read and it is a knock out! LOVE THIS! ❤

Love the Cobra Securities series

This was another great addition to the series. Declan,Kenzie and Jamal made up the perfect little family of three people all just waiting to come together. Love seeing the characters from the previous books coming to help them. Good series!

GREAT READ

Minus a star for the killing of Aunt LaLa and the beating up of Eric ("BLM")! It was totally unnecessary to the story but to anger or saddened the readers😢.
