Protecting Everleigh: A steamy, small-town protector romance (GHOST Legacy)

 by PJ Fiala

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

A wonderful read

What a wonderful story, I was hooked from the beginning.
Henry and Everleigh were destined to be together, they had such chemistry. Everleigh is a negotiator sent into a small town and Henry her protector.
Family, team spirit, protection and love covers this story, I loved it
.


USAT author PJ Fiala, brings you the next generation of GHOST operatives set in the small-town of Glen Hollow, Kentucky, where a long-standing rivalry is brewing into an all out war, and love comes calling even in the worst of times.

When the job can only be handled by a team that doesn’t exist, you call GHOST.

He was raised to be a GHOST operative.

She's an Army-trained, skilled negotiator.

Together they play a game of push and pull—until she finds herself in need of his protection.

Henry Delany inherited his father’s muscular frame and his mother’s penchant for the law. Working for GHOST gives him the opportunity to use both while doing what he loves—protecting the lives of others. Determined to bring tranquility and harmony to Glen Hollow, the small-town he now calls home, he has agreed to work with a closed-off, government liaison in an effort to broker a peace deal. But Protecting Everleigh just might be Henry’s most challenging mission to date .

Everleigh Hayes was raised to be a negotiator, and Glen Hollow, Kentucky is a small town in need of a truce. She is just the woman to make that happen. Like her previous assignments, she approaches this one with her finely-tuned grace and finesse. But when Everleigh comes face to face with the undercurrent of darkness permeating this little town, she finds herself ensnared by more danger than she’s ever faced. Needing Henry and falling in love with him is a development she’s never negotiated before.

The Girl Who Lied: An utterly gripping thriller with twists and turns to die for (Chief Maggie Riley Book 1)

The Girl Who Lied | Book 1: https://geni.us/B0BZZHKKQGsocial

I was browsing crime on Netgalley and stopped for the cover of this one. A great intro for a new to me author and it won't be my last. I enjoyed the author's cruising style of writing and just sat back and enjoyed the ride. I really like small town stories, the characters if not born there have interesting stories of why they fled the big city life.
This story was written in multiple POV but easily recognised by the title of each chapter. I really enjoyed this insight into each major character.
More than one murder in this story, the crime that brought them together but other bodies from the past brought such colour to this story.
I hope Chief Maggie and her partner stick around and I look forward to more from this series and author.


Rain hammers the earth and a vicious wind rattles the trees. Then lightning strikes, the flash illuminating a young girl staggering out of the woods, her brown eyes wide with fright, a silent scream on her lips…

There’s a storm approaching the tiny Maine town of Coyote Cove when 
Chief Maggie Riley comes across the body of a man, blood seeping from stab wounds into the damp forest floor. As she desperately struggles to secure the evidence before the rain hits, Heather, a local teenage girl, emerges from the woods, shivering and unable to talk.

Maggie, once a high flying big-city detective, lost everything when her four-year-old brother went missing five years ago. Heart-broken, she’s never stopped searching for him: but now she is plunged back into the world she left behind.

The victim, Maggie discovers, knew secrets about everyone in isolated Coyote Cove. It seems there are more local suspects in this case than people she can rule out. And with Heather still traumatised, Maggie struggles to unravel her strange appearance at the crime scene. Until, following a faint, bloody trail deep into the forest, she’s horrified to unearth what the terrified girl’s been hiding…

But when Heather is kidnapped, the battle to identify the killer becomes a race to save an innocent girl’s life. And with the whole town terrified, Maggie is shocked to uncover that this twisted killer is much closer to home than she’d ever imagined. Battling her own demons and memories of her missing brother, 
how far will Maggie have to go to save Heather? Or will another innocent young life be lost forever...?
