UNDER PRESSURE Synopsis:

He can protect anything except his heart

Leese Phelps's road hasn't been an easy one, but it's brought him to the perfect job—working for the elite Body Armor security agency. And what his newest assignment lacks in size, she makes up for in fire and backbone. But being drawn to Catalina Nicholson is a dangerous complication, especially since it could be the very man who hired Leese who's threatening her.

What Catalina knows could get her killed. But who'd believe the sordid truth about her powerful stepfather? Beyond Leese's ripped body and brooding gaze is a man of impeccable honor. He's the last person she expects to trust—and the first who's ever made her feel safe. And he's the only one who can help her expose a deadly secret, if they can just stay alive long enough…

   

“Romantic thriller veteran Foster has been honing her skill for a long time, and it’s clear she’s at the top of her game here. Readers will find themselves, along with her colorful cast of supporting characters, rooting for a happy-ever-after.”

- Kirkus Reviews

“Teasing and humorous dialogue, sizzling sex scenes, tender moments, and overriding tension show Foster’s skill as a balanced storyteller. She sets up a continuing story line for the series with the mystery of who murdered the firm’s founder, Sahara’s brother, but this thread never overwhelms the gripping main story, which will leave readers breathless.”

Excerpt:

Cat couldn’t look at him. She felt ridiculous.

And pretty wonderful.

She wanted him. And that worried her.

Moving on would be for the best. But where? And how?

And damn it, she didn’t want to go. She wanted to snuggle up with him again. She wanted the unaccount­able peace of mind he afforded her. Why he afforded it, she had no idea.

This morning, crowds filled the lobby and she real­ized what she hadn’t last night: she looked terrible. In the nice hotel, most were dressed in expensive coats and leather boots, their hair salon-styled, their manners impeccable.

Standing to her right, Justice again hauled her big, broken suitcase and that made them stand out like a sore thumb. Not because of the guys, but because of her.

At her other side, Leese took her arm, drawing more than a few probing stares. “Ready?”

Did he touch her so she wouldn’t feel so out of place? Probably. She wouldn’t put much past him.

Or maybe the crowds made him as nervous as they made her. She could practically feel people watching, but with menace, disdain for her downtrodden appearance or curiosity given her man-candy bookends?

Maybe he thought she’d run if he didn’t hold on to her.

Or maybe he felt the same remainder of simmering intimacy that kept her too warm. She’d slept with him—and loved it.

“Cat?”

She realized both Leese and Justice watched her. With a subdued nod, she allowed them to lead her outside.

Crisp, cold air filled the parking garage, undisturbed by the morning sunshine. She’d left her hair down to help keep her ears warm, and dressed in a bulky sweater over a long-sleeved T-shirt, jeans, thick socks and the trusted boots.

Still she shivered.

Of course Leese noticed. “Start the car,” he told Jus­tice. “I’ll put the luggage away.”

“You riding in back again?”

Leese gave her a long, level look. “Yeah.”

Shoving her hands in the pockets of her coat and ducking her face, Cat said, “You don’t have to babysit me. I’m not going anywhere.” Probably.

“We have to talk, remember?” He brought up her chin. “That’ll be easier to do if I’m sitting with you.”

Insane that his fingers were warm despite the cold. “Suit yourself.”

“I think I will.”

REVIEW:

"You should know something."
"What's that?"
"I'm not holding you against your will. I'm here to keep you safe."
"So you've said. But if I choose to leave?"
"I'd follow."
Oh my. Oh my!!

Ok, so I have been a fan of Leese's for a while. (Since he has been a secondary character in other books by Lori Foster) I couldn't wait to read his story!! Oh my gee!! It was all that I had hoped for!!

Leese Phelps is bodyguard you don't want to mess with. He takes his work seriously, and being a former MMA fighter, he doesn't mind busting a few heads to protect when needed.
So when he is hired to protect Catalina Nicholson, he will stop at nothing to keep her safe. Even if he has to go against his immediate attraction to her...and vice versa.

"You're the most impressive man I've ever seen."
"I'm glad you think so, because I've been craving you since we met."
"Do I measure up?"
"You're hotter than even my imagination. And I imagined you naked a lot."

Lori Foster has an amazing knack for mixing sex and heart with danger and suspense. I always feel like I'm watching an epic film in my mind while reading her words. You can picture everything perfectly, and also feel the emotion coming off the pages.

Reese and Cat can't deny their chemistry, but they also can't ingnore the danger she is facing. With her life on the line, Reese protects Cat at all costs. 
So much happens to these two, and anyone that's close to them! I was on the edge of my seat so much!!

"He wanted her. She made him laugh. She wrenched his heart. And he was determined to keep her safe."

I LOVED THIS BOOK!! I'm so excided for more of this series. Being introduced to Reese's right hand man, Justice, I just know I'm going to love each and every book that's coming!!

Another great read from Lori Foster!!

"Touching sounds good to me."
"Really?"
"That...and more."
"How much more?"
"As much as you want."
"Perfect. I want everything."
