Tate: The Montana Marshalls by Susan May Warren

Bodyguard Tate Marshall, has always been the family troublemaker…

Maybe it’s his propensity to get entangled in other people’s problems. Now, he’s in over his head because he’s desperately in love with the woman he’s tasked to protect, the beautiful Gloria, “Glo” Jackson, daughter of US Senator and presidential hopeful Reba Jackson. A member of the country band, the Yankee Belles, Glo was targeted in a recent terrorist attack designed to deter her mother from running, and Tate will do anything to keep her safe. Even if it means letting her go.

Country music artist Glo Jackson isn’t afraid of trouble…

Stubborn and brave, Glo isn’t about to hide from threats, at least the kind that won’t cost her heart. She’s already paid a terrible price for the war on terror, and she refuses to fall for a man who might die, especially because of her. Better to keep him away, even if it means sacrificing her heart.

But when danger threatens them both, what will they sacrifice to keep each other safe?

As the presidential campaign heats up and the threats deepen, so does the attraction between Tate and Glo. But what will it cost Tate to keep her alive? And what will Glo do to keep from losing another man she loves?

This is the second book in the series.  I would recommend you read the first book in the series, Knox, before you read this.  Tate would fill in some blanks but not all of them.  Also, Knox is a great book too.

Tate has trouble accepting himself as he is.  He is always comparing himself to Knox and finds himself coming up short.  Glo is pulled in two different directions.  Her mother thinks her singing career is just a faze and she'll get through it.  She insists Glo come help her with her presidential campaign.   Glo has to figure out who she really wants to be.  This is all happening while she's caught in an explosion, gets shot, and gets caught in a mafia brawl.  All the while Tate will do anything to save her life.  He would even die for her.  That is the last thing she wants to happen.  You need to read the book to find out all that happens.  It's a great book.

We are also introduced to Ford Marshall.  He's a Navy SEAL.  We are told part of his story to take us into the next book in the series, Ford.  Can't wait to read it.

I was given this book by the author in exchange for an honest review.  I was not compensated in any way.
