After losing his wife, security specialist Hunter Knox has developed feelings for Triss he’s not ready to admit. But he’s determined to protect her, even if it means getting closer than he should. With the killer ready to strike again, Hunter and Triss will need all their courage and faith—not to mention each other—jut to survive.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Sara K .Parker is an author and freelance writer/editor crafting stories of hope in the midst of impossible circumstances.

By weekday, she invests her time in a fast-paced job she loves in healthcare marketing and internal communications. By nights and weekends, she hangs out with her four kids, reads good books, plays the piano, runs just enough to counteract cupcakes and such, and writes (of course). After Jesus, those are the things that bring her the most joy and peace in this unpredictable life. As a recovering planaholic, worrywart, and people-pleaser, writing is as much a therapeutic outlet for her as it is a hobby and career.

Sara lives in Houston, Texas, where summer lasts half the year and nature views are scarce, so she tries to find time each year to travel - whether to a quiet retreat in Texas Hill Country, a flight back east to visit family in Maryland, or a cruise where she doesn't have to think about dinner or dishes or agendas.

Hop on over to her website, www.sarakparker.com, Facebook author page @SaraKParker.author or Instagram @sara.k.parker to connect--she loves to hear from readers and writers!

I really enjoy the twist and turn in this book. Just when you think you figured "who dun it"
..someone else gets arrested and you're wondering "now what" because there's more book to read - then the real culprit is found!

Love the story surrounded an assisted living facility and the humor the senior citizens brought to the story. Guilt is hard to live with, but when you experience God’s forgiveness, it is so freeing. Nice job by the author.

I liked the genuine emotions of the characters and their diverse personalities. I would have liked to have more emphasis on the religious aspect of the story.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Read!
Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2019
My review today is on the Love Inspired Suspense, Security Measures. I really enjoy Sara's books and I'm always glad to get them in the mail. This story is well written, action packed and full of intrigue. Sara's faith is interwoven throughout the story like a fine tapestry. I know you are going to love it.

Triss Everett works for Shield. She has gone to part time to finish her degree. She signed a contract to help at a senior center for room and board. She cut her hours at Shield to just nights on the weekends. It worked well for her as she was getting to close to one of the agents and his children. (She couldn't let him close or he might find out her secret.) Something strange was going on at the home. Four deaths in only three weeks made her suspicious. When she started asking questions someone caused an accident that almost cost her life. She would have died except for the agent she was trying to stay away from.

Shield Operative Hunter Knox is a widower with two children. He has been alone for quite some time. He thought Triss was the answer to his prayer but when they started to get close she pulled away and went back to school. He could respect that. He didn't want his children to be hurt. He goes to the funeral of one of the residence to be there for her but is late. He follows her to make sure she is safe. The back of her car burst in flames. He has only minutes to get her out. He finds her life is in danger. He must keep her safe.

A journey of heartbreak, regret, and loss. Can these two overcome their baggage and learn to trust each other and God? God has a plan for these two; a plan for a hope and a future. God has a plan for you two, a good plan and not for evil. Give Him your life and watch Him turn your world around.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great romantic suspense
Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2019
Squeeeep!!! Another Shield Protection Bodyguard suspense from Sara K. Parker! I do so love the way this author pulls a story together. And Triss and Hunter's romance is another enthralling read!

First -- love that these two have a history. Not only are they Shield colleagues, but that were on the verge of something special months ago. Until Triss pulled back and dropped out of sight. A particularly painful retreat since Hunter has two young children who were negatively affected by Triss's disappearing act. And the author drove me out-of-my-mind-crazy trying to figure out what Triss was hiding -- and why it would make her run in the first place. Nothing like keeping a reader on romantical pins-and-needles for most of the read!

Then there's Hunter! (Still ironing out the kinks in my toes from all that curling!) I have such a weakness for devoted father heroes and Hunter is that -- and so much more. Despite Triss's withdrawal, he's right by her side at the first sign of trouble. All gentle protector determined to break through that wall around her heart. If only the attempts on her life would stop long enough for him to begin his wooing in earnest. Gah!

Clever mystery, intense plot and enough swoonworthy moments to keep a sensitive reader lightheaded. In other words -- sublime satisfaction guaranteed!

5.0 out of 5 stars Security Measures was great, measured up to all my expectations! 5 stars!
Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2019
I couldn't wait to get my hands on Security Measures, Triss and Hunter's story. The setting in the Harmony Senior Living was fresh and unique. The characters were varied from young college students living in the facility as companions to the older residents, to the members of Shield Protection Services readers will recognize from past books.
The story opens with an exciting scene and the suspense doesn't let up throughout. The twists and turns had me guessing who the culprit was trying to do away with the seniors who had become Triss's friends.

The relationship between Triss and Hunter was full of chemistry and angst. Triss's secret past was so heartrending I got choked up a few times. Hunter was just the right type of man for Triss, steady and dependable, willing to give her the space she needed while not giving up on her. Hunter's children Josie and Levi were adorable and added just the right amount of charm to the story. The last chapter brought the story to a satisfying conclusion and I couldn't have loved it more. Great storytelling!

I have enjoyed reading this book so much that I had to finish reading it before I could put it down. I would like to read more books with this group called the shield. I would recommend it to anyone.
