Daring Protectors is a romantic suspense series set in the dangerous and exciting city of New Orleans. The heroes are brave protectors: police, private investigators, FBI, or even computer hackers. The protectors find romance later in life but not without conquering danger first. Their heroines are strong and independent with life experience to guide the way. Both discover that love—later in life—is a real thing and worth fighting for.

Each novel in the series is a standalone romance with a guaranteed HEA and no cliffhanger. The suspenseful stories interconnect so you’ll have the pleasure of revisiting characters you know and love.
