Banks Huntington has always been a family man. After his wife’s tragic death, he’s holding on tighter to the only thing he’s got left. His son.
Lamise Kelly walks into Harper Security Ops desperately hoping for a job. Working in a place filled with men who could see she remains unharmed is the perfect solution to all of her problems. Only, they’re not hiring.
For the first time in months, something stirs in Banks’ chest at the sight of Lamise. He wants to deny it, but he can’t. Refusing to let her walk away, Banks offers her a different kind of job.
Becoming a nanny wasn’t what she’d had in mind, but Lamise accepts the opportunity.
Following unimaginable losses, the pair attempt to get their lives back on track. But it isn’t long before they find themselves forming an unexpected bond.
Just as things heat up between them, a part of Lamise’s past she believed was gone forever returns.
Banks never expected a second chance. If he wants a shot at forever with Lamise, he’ll have no choice but to confront her past.
REVIEW
Reviewer: Christi
Rating: 3.75 Groupie Stars
Lamise recently lost her fiancé and dog in a bizarre and tragic way. After moving and attempting to start fresh she discovers some new information about her fiancé's death. Prompted by this discovery, she adjusts her job search to include Harper Security, where she meets Banks.
Banks has a six month old son and as a recent widower, is looking for a nanny to stay with his son while he is working. Lamise steps into the role and quickly builds a relationship with father and son.
This story did have a bit of heartbreak and showed the healing journey both Lamise and Banks are on, separately and together. This is not the spiciest book of this series and it definitely has a different flow. The suspense factor was a little lost for me in this book. It does pickup a bit toward the end, however it almost feels like it was an 'oh, snap - I forgot' and it was rushed in at the end.
While still a decent read, Unharmed didn't quite hit the mark for me based on what i have come to expect from this series. I did still enjoy the characters though.
