A quietly strong woman with her own painful past promises to protect her at all costs …
Christina Lambert is O’Halleran Security International’s brilliant and indispensable office manager. Behind her effervescent smile and upbeat attitude lurks a dark and excruciatingly painful past that left her scarred inside and out.

My first book by TJ Logan. Wow!!! This book is a page turner. Had me literally bouncing of my seat with each page. Loved the book from beginning to end. It’s a must read.
I fell in love with Devlin. Got me intrigued to get to know the rest of the sexy OSI operators. Will definitely go back and read books 1-6.

Amazing book, could not put it down. Loved the dynamic of all the characters. I like the fact that the story is in a series, but can be read as a stand-alone. Enough details from the previous books to not be lost, but not too many to ruin the other books! FANTASTIC!

This was the first time reading this author, and it was a great book. First Christina to let her guard down when it came to Devlin and then when she and felicity after they found her in the woods in bad shape. The while team once again knew what to do.

So happy to finally get Christina and Devlin’s story! It did not disappoint. Felicity was an amazing addition to the story. She brought out so many strong emotions in the reader. They were a great group of characters that I enjoyed reading.

I totally loved this book because the couple acknowledged their feelings early on making them a dedicated couple during the romantic suspense. This was a nice twist because we got to see more into the HEA. I thought the author handled potential triggers with sensitivity and provided a swerve that lasted to the very last chapter….awesome read!

This is the second book that I have read by this author, and as with the first one I read, I really enjoyed it.
I was sucked in straight away. The description of Felicity’s early life just turned my stomach, it seemed so real.
Christina Lambert, O'Halloran Security International’s extremely competent office manager, recognised and understood exactly what Felicity’s life has been like, and will do anything to protect Felicity. Devlin, owner of a pub, has been attracted to Christina for years. When he realises what is happening, he does everything that he can to protect Felicity and Christina.
Both of the adults have secrets from each other, and these need to be confronted to move forward.
TJ Logan dives into a world that, I suspect, most of us do not want to acknowledge exists. The topic is well researched, written with empathy, and gives hope that people do come out of these situations and have meaningful lives.
Now to backtrack and read the rest of the books in the series.

Christina is strength & the fact she hasn't lost herself just makes her a badass. Devlin is so gentle & gives Christina all the time she needs. His protectiveness is not overbearing buy a comfort. The story flowed so smoothly & engaged me till the last page. Felicity makes the circle complete. Beautiful love & passion that coloured the pages a sweet pink. Awesome team with a purpose!

This is the seventh book in this series but it can be read as a standalone as the author has cleverly incorporated a peek into the previous stories.
Christina Lambert's nightmares had started again, she was reliving a traumatic incident that changed her life. Christina was office manager of O'Halloran Security International and the wonderful, caring, O'Hallorans had adopted her as one of their own.
Close friend of the O'Hallorans, Devlin Masters, was owner of the Don't Know bar, he was an ex marine sniper and when Christina was in danger he would move heaven and earth to be the one to rescue her……..he knew that they belonged together.
Christina had tried to stay away from Devlin even though she was deeply attracted to him, she had a secret that meant that she must keep her distance until ……..
When a young girl appeared at the bar, furtively looking for leftover food Devlin asked Christina for help, the girl was obviously in trouble and Christina and Devlin would find out why.
When thirteen year old Felicity's story was finally uncovered and with the backup of the OSI, they had an emotional job on their hands, a job they were determined to succeed at, the men trafficking young girls had to be stopped by any means.
This story follows Christina and Devlin finally coming together and admitting their love, the fight to find justice for Felicity and give her the life that every child should have. T.J Logan has sympathetically confronted a really emotive subject in this book that may cause triggers
This is a great story with wonderful characters and a surprising HEA

Always a hit
I love the O'Halleran's group so much. Devlin and Christina did not disappoint. And Felicity was a wonderful addition. I can always count on TJ Logan to give me a wonderful story. Can't wait to read more from the operators of OSI.

This author did a really good job at writing this story. It was very emotional and a roller coaster of suspense. This was the first book by this author I’ve read, and glad I was given the opportunity to. Some of the characters in this book are from previous, so I’d be interested to read the others in the series to get a sense of all the characters.
Devlin likes Christina, but he respects her and the boundaries she has. She doesn’t think she’s good enough - that she’s damaged, and has suffered through a really bad childhood that still haunts her. So when she sees Felicity, she sees herself and wants to help. Devlin also wants to do anything he can to help. It was really sad and heartbreaking to see everything Felicity has gone through. But it was very touching to see Devlin with Christina and Felicity, and to see Christina learn to trust and finally let herself love.

What starts as a heartbreaking story filled with all of the horrors of what a human being is capable of doing to another, especially a child, ends with a what person is also able to overcome. Devlin has always loved Christina. But after what she survived, he loves her enough to wait and not push her beyond her limits. However, when they see a child suffering and in obvious danger, they don't hesitate to face that danger head on and together. Human trafficking and child predators are topics most would like to hope doesn't happen in real life, but it is real and Logan does a fantastic job telling Christina and Felicity's stories.

Christina and Devlin are dancing around their attraction. She's convinced that he won't want her once he knows everything about her past. He's the real deal, the super sexy bar owner who doesn't care about her past. Together, they work to find Felicity and give her the home she's never had. I love that Christina is able to begin to bond with Felicity, even if the young girl can't fully trust anyone. Christina's "stalker"… that was a surprise! Once again, the amazing O'Hallerans come together to take care of their extended family. The story is engrossing, and sucked me in from the beginning. I received an advance review copy of the book, and this is my honest review.
November 15, 2022
Wow! This was fantastic read! It’s multi POV -not just the main couple, but the child involved, a few bad guys, and one guy we don’t really know who he is until the end (and my opinion changed of him around the middle- was pretty excited to be right about him too). There is a little bit of steam, some hard subjects- mostly talked about from their pasts but some from what the girl is going through now, too. I was pretty addicted to this story and didn’t want to put it down. It is part of a series and probably better enjoyed read in order because there are a lot of characters to know that help them in this story, but I haven’t read those yet and still enjoyed this alone (of course, now I want to go back and read them).

This story is nothing but action with romance between Devlin and Christina. Felicity was sold to a very bad man by her mother with drugs and now it's up to Devlin and Christina and team to save her. This is nonstop action from the first page to last. You just can't stop reading because you want to know what's going to happen next. I can't wait to read more from this author and the O'Hallaran security

Finally getting Christina and Devlin’s story. Devlin’s devotion and patience with Christina and her tragic story of being kidnapped as a young girl. He brings healing, joy and love into her life. Then Felicity drops into their lives and creates new drama and an opportunity to save a beautiful girl in the middle of a nasty situation.
Once again the family gathers around and steps up to help with the op to take down nasty human traffickers. Great series!

I was so excited for Devlin and Christina's book, and I definitely wasn't disappointed. Devlin is probably one of my in this series, and I love him even more after this book. It was great to finally see them two get together and watch them help a young girl who went through traumas like Christina did. Definitely worth a read.

Love this book!!! I was sucked into the story from the beginning. Christina still suffers from a traumatic childhood event. She is so strong and has come so far. She works for the O'Halleran Security and has become a bonus member of the family. Develin is a former elite marine sniper who now owns a bar that they frequent. Devlin has wanted Christina since he first seen her but knows he needs to be slow and gentle with her. They have danced around each other and are now getting their story. Add in Felicity, a young girl who is being trafficked and who has run away from her captors. Christina sees her young self in Felicity and wants to help. She and Devlin admit their feelings early on which I think is a big plus for this book. They work together to make sure Felicity is safe and home with them. This book will keep you on the edge of your seat reading!
I had not read any of the previous books in this series. I do think it would have helped me to know all the characters a little better if I had; but it definitely did not take anything away from my enjoyment of this book.

I hope this isn’t the last book in this series, if so, this was one amazing ending! Christina Lambert was abducted as a child and still suffers the physical and mental scars of her time in captivity. Her new family are the men and women of O’Halleran Security International where she works as the office manager. Devlin Masters is a close friend of the O’Halleran’s, a former Marine sniper and owns his own pub. He is attracted to Christina, has accepted the boundaries she has in place, but hopes to eventually gain her trust and love. When Christina sees young Felicity Miller in Devlin’s pub, she recognizes another injured soul and wants to help. Felicity trusts no one and has escaped from a dangerous situation. She knows the man is coming for her, so she must keep running. When she is offered help from Christina and Devlin, dare she trust that this time there is someone who really cares? Will Felicity finally be safe with the assistance of the O’Halloran family and one special rescuer? I received an advance review copy at no cost and without obligation for an honest review.

I have read several of the books in this series before, and I really enjoyed Christina and Delvin's book. Christina believes she can never have a relationship and children, she believes that she is damaged goods. Delvin has had feelings for her for a long time, when a young girl enters their lives they join forces to protect her. I most definitely would recommend this book to others.

It’s about time. Devlin and Christina have been dancing around each other for a long time. They finally get there own HEA.
Christina went through things as a child no one should go through. She fells like she’s damaged goods.
Devlin has loved her from afar from pretty much first sight. He’s been patient and understanding but he’s ready to take his chance.
“He’s like super in love with you, isn’t he?” Felicity gathered up the decorative throw pillows from the bed. “He is, which is handy, since I’m super in love with him, too.”
This was a edge of your seat suspenseful story as is everything this author writes. I can’t get enough of this series. From the very first book I fell in love with this family and all there friends.
I really hope we get a story about that new character. Just Sayin!!

This book caught my attention and interest right off the bat. We have three main wonderful characters, Devlin Master, Christina Lambert and Felicity Miller. Devlin, former Marine Recon Scout Sniper, has just reopened his Uncle Henry's Pub and best friend to Christina's, Office Manager of O'Halleran Security International (OSI), boss. Felicity is a young girl who is a kidnapped survival and on the run.
The attraction and chemistry is hard for Devlin and Christina to deny onces they started spending time together. Since Devlin has been busy with remodeling and fixing Uncle Henry's old house and pub, plus jobs with OSI when required, he thought he was happy with his life and wasn't in looking for a woman to settle down with.
Christina has always thought Devlin was yummy, but wasn't looking at him for more than a good time. Little did they know because of one little girl trying to survive, Christina being able to relate to Felicity's background and Devlin wanting to provide food and protect, before Christina and Devlin knows it the pull towards each got stronger and the bond of love started forming. What happens to Felicity? You'll have to read the book!
The book has a lot to offer and worth buying! I recommend this book for those who wants to be entertained and enjoys hot romance.
