Xanthe's Reviews > Promise to Shield

A fantastic follow up to Vow of Protection! We are following Carter who helped out in book one as he is hired as personal protection for Brice. Brice's father works for the FBI and is currently undercover and his fears for his son lead to him to ask for Carter's help. After spending a year with the young man, neither has much fondness for the other until tensions build enough between the two to come to blows. What follows for both is attraction, denial and a yearning for the other that is very hard to ignore. Unfortunately Carter's past catches up to them before things can progress with the help of someone they know.
I am really enjoying this series so far! Brittany is giving us some brilliant characters with depth to them along with a great relationship with each other. The story has energy, tension and a huge dose of attraction that brings both men together in their times of need. In the situation that they find themselves in, it's hard not to become close to those around you, though they get a lot closer than most! Everything evolves naturally between the two with hesitance, reticence from Carter. The pacing of the story works really well with the story line being helped along with a dose of drama and action along the way.
Brittany has built a really interesting world for these characters and I cannot wait for book three!
I received an ARC and am happily giving a review.
