Unknown Threat (Defend and Protect, #1)

US Secret Service Special Agent Luke Powell is lucky to be alive. Three of his fellow agents have died in unusual circumstances in the past ten weeks. Luke is devastated by the loss of his friends and colleagues, and his inability to locate the killer feels like a personal failure. He's an expert at shielding others, but now the protectors are in need of protection.

FBI Special Agent Faith Malone is driven to succeed and confident in her ability to solve every case she's assigned. She's been put in charge of the investigation into the unprecedented attacks, and with Luke's life in danger, the stakes have never been higher. But it's hard to know how to fight back when you don't know who the enemy is.

As more agents are targeted, Luke and Faith will have to work together to bring a killer to justice and prevent any more names from joining their fallen brothers and sisters on the Secret Service Wall of Honor.

MY REVIEW: Author Lynne H. Blackburn begins her thrilling new "Defend and Protect Series" with the suspenseful "Unknown Threat". When US Secret Service Agents in the Raleigh, NC division begin to fall victim to a deadly unknown assailant, FBI Special Agent Faith Malone is chosen to lead the investigation into the attacks. Agency delineators blur when law enforcement officers come under fire, and service members unite to protect their comrades-in-arms. For Faith, the assignment is made more personal when one of the surviving victims turns out to be US Secret Service Special Agent Luke Powell. Luke, with whom Faith had worked on numerous occasions during the past several years, was a colleague, a friend, and perhaps, something more. Seeing Faith again under these circumstances would take some getting used to, especially when she was the lead investigator, but Luke knew they had to work together to stop the vicious killer before he struck again. As the search for the assassin becomes more intense, so does the growing attraction between Faith and Luke. Can they combine their special skills and abilities and stop evil in its tracks? If they survive, is there a chance for the feelings they share to become a lasting, happy future together? Author Lynn H. Blackburn has a created a compelling romantic suspense read with appealing protagonists and an involving story line. I look forward ti more entries in the "Defend and Protect Series".
