Juggling two jobs is nothing new for registered nurse, Hillary Glenwood, she’s been doing it for most of her adult life. She has an objective she intends to meet. But, just months before reaching her goal, she witnesses a violent attack outside her apartment that rattles her determination. However, her carefully controlled life runs completely off the rails when she recognizes the new neighbor coming to the rescue.

As a hacker, Radar Jansen hasn’t always used his expertise in the most respectable ways until he came to work for PASS Security. Normally his time is spent behind a computer, but that doesn’t mean his skills end there. When—walking his dog one night—he sees a familiar woman rushing into a dangerous situation, his training kicks in.

With Hillary’s safety compromised, the keyboard warrior puts on his real life armor to shield the woman who is fast becoming his only focus.

5 Stars

Once again Freya Barker has drawn me in from the very first chapter. Flipping pages to see what will happen next, will they solve the mystery, will these wonderful characters find their happiness along the way? A fabulous look at the behind the scenes part of some investigations with the world of the dark web and online social presence.

Hillary is a strong sassy independent woman with a plan. She has worked so hard to get where she hopes to be for her future. Working two jobs to play off her school loans. Her social life has taken the hit but she will get it back when things slow down. As she starts to feel out a relationship with the handsome private security guy, her old friend self doubt takes a pretty big stand, putting up some pretty high walls to conquer.

Radar has not been big on relationships in the past. Not that he has anything against them but his hobby and career as a computer specialist can easily drag him down the worm hole and time just evades you completely. But when the beautiful woman in the building across the way catches his attention, he becomes pretty determined to try. His true alpha comes out strong when he decides she needs to be looked out for.

Will Hillary be able to relax and let someone help her when needed? Will Radar learn to pull himself from the computer and reach out?

A wonderful addition to the PASS Series bringing all our friends along the way. Looking forward to what comes next.
