ABOUT THE BOOK:
They'll protect the president at any cost--but who will protect their
hearts?
USSS Special Agent Zane Thacker has landed his dream assignment protecting the
president of the United States. When the president plans a fundraiser at the
exclusive estate of a political supporter in Raleigh, Zane is thrilled to be
working again with Special Agent Tessa Reed, his best friend--and the woman he
desperately wishes could be more.
Though Tessa almost lost everything, she battled her demons and came out on the
other side healthy and healed. But when her role as the liaison between the
Raleigh office and the president's protective detail wrenches her past back
into the present, her greatest failure threatens to come to light.
Zane refuses to let Tessa go through this alone. But can he stand by the woman
he loves and protect the president from a mounting threat at the same time?

REVIEW:⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
A riveting story filled with action, faith, and romance . . .
This author has a gift for creating memorable characters and unforgettable plots filled with suspense, mystery, and tension. 'Under Fire' is no exception.
The lead female, Tessa Reed, is a recovering alcoholic who has faced a lot of trauma and tragedy in her life. She has been given the assignment as the leader of a team of Secret Service Agents as they plan to protect the President of the United States at a private event.
The lead male, Zane Thacker, has been Tessa's support system and best friend throughout her recovery. He and several other agents have worked together in the past and share a close bond as friends outside of their careers. He is forced to deal with demons from his own past that could jeopardize his relationship with Tessa.
Tessa harbors a lot of secrets from her past which threaten to undermine her career. I felt she faced these challenges with grace and honesty.
The author faces difficult subjects such as addiction head on. As a reader I appreciate the respect Ms. Blackburn shows to her diverse cast of characters.The romance angle of the plot is very realistic with doubt, misunderstandings, and angst contributed by both parties.
There is a visible faith thread woven into the lives of many of the main characters. This group of people truly cares for their co-workers which they exhibit by praying together in times of crisis and speaking with each other about their own faith journey.
This book is completely clean in language and content.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher through their Revell Reads Blogger Program. All of my thoughts and opinions shared here are solely my own.
