Blackhawk Security Books 1-3: With One Breath / Once Removed / Once Burned
Three electrifying tales of strong women on the run, one from The Taliban, one from a mysterious enemy— or maybe more than one enemy. Fortunately, each has an ally—a hot one.
With One Breath - Book 1
Laila’s not the type of woman who needs rescuing. Except for a tiny rule-breaking penchant, she’s a model CIA agent—smart, resourceful, brave, and determined. But right now she’s in a tight situation—in more than one way. She’s hiding from the Taliban in a network of pitch-dark g caves, so narrow a cat could barely thread its way through them--a cat or an agent trained for it. And that would be Jase, her CIA-designated rescuer…
Once Removed - Book 2
Finally! Lainey’s getting divorced from her abusive husband. All she has to do is verify his current address. But his workplace suddenly catches fire almost the moment she steps inside.
Luckily, Brody, a friend and neighbor on whom she’s long had a secret crush sees the fire and rescues her. But the firefighters find her estranged ex dead in the building.
The day your husband is murdered is the worst possible time for a new love... but just watch. Watson’s ability to ratchet up tension is only rivaled by her agile sense of heightened romance.
Once Burned - Book 3
Julia’s made a great life for herself— she’s now the chef-owner of Madeline’s, the restaurant she’s always dreamed of, and it’s one of the best in Seattle. But suddenly she finds her great life falling apart—on every front.

Overall: 5 stars
With One Breath: 5 stars
Once Removed: 5 stars
Once Burned: 5 stars
The first two titles provide some satisfying backstory for the series. The third title, the first genuine case described, provides some insights into how the security company (hence future stories) operates. They each have a situation or mystery to be resolved. All of them are well-written and exceptionally entertaining.

Great read. This book is a romantic suspense novel about Jase & Laila, Brody & Lainey and Nico & Julia getting together with each other.

Very enjoyable
Great stories. I was a bit disturbed by tough bodyguards using "bae", which I think is the stupidest thing ever, but other than that, they were all good reading.
