Hard Justice
Body Armor Series - Book 2
By Lori Foster
HQN - April 2017
Contemporary Romance
Hard Justice is the second story in Lori Foster's Body Armor series. This new series follows Ms Foster's Ultimate series and is tied to additional ones. If you want to read everything in order, start with her SBC series, then read the following, Men Who Walk the Edge of Honor series, Love Undercover series, the short story Hard Knocks which is the prequel to the Ultimate series. Then comes the new Body Armor series.
Justice Wallington had begun to enjoy his new career. He had gotten out of fighting and was now protecting others. A good gig, especially if he liked the client. And boy did he like his new client. Fallon Wade was fun, attractive and unique. Rich, to be sure, but down to earth and simply wanting to be able to go out and experience life. Her father had hired him to protect her, but her plans consisted of doing, pretty much basic things most people her age had already done. Go to a bar, movies, shop, and so many more mundane activities. But Fallon's reactions to such simple pleasures were anything but mundane, and intrigued Justice all the more.
Fallon knew her father was being overprotective, but she didn't have the heart to make her parents worry. They had already been through so much, and if having Justice around to keep her safe kept them happy, then Fallon was more than willing to please. Especially since having Justice around made Fallon happy. Oh, she knew she would never be able to keep his interest, but he definitely was entertaining, had fascinating friends, and made her wish for things she knew she would never have. She knew he was there for her protection. She didn't need protection, but soon knew she needed him in her life.
Hard Justice was an entertaining romance between two people who initially seem such opposites. Fallon is rich, Justice, not so much. Fallon has been introverted, private, Justice has been a professional fighter. But they are both caring individuals who are dedicated to the people that they care about. I loved reading their story and seeing Fallon overcome her past. There were some fascinating secondary characters, and I am curious to see who is next in the Body Armor series.
