Luke O'Reilly has seen it all, done it all, and lived through it all. When a career ending injury forces him to retire from the military, he struggles to adapt. Luke was born to be a soldier, not conform to the nine-to-five mediocrity of everyday life. He needs to protect and serve like he needs his next breath. Angry, with a bitter taste of civilian life, he finds himself searching for purpose in dangerous operatives through the family business that is Brother's Keeper Security. Working alongside his brothers, protecting them and those they love, gives him satisfaction. But he still wants more - needs more - and struggles to find it. That is, until the one thing he didn't think he was searching for, lands on his doorstep. Literally. Daisy King lives life on her own terms, just the way she likes it. A free spirit, until she finds herself in the protective clutches of Brother's Keeper, one frustrating brother in particular. As the key witness to a high-profile murder, the stakes turn dangerous and take an unpredictable twist leaving her once simple life an existence she'll never reclaim. In a true tug of war between good and evil, Luke fights to overcome his past, to protect his future. Can Luke and Daisy save each other and find a happily ever after? Or, does murder and mayhem prevail, robbing Daisy of her freedom and sentencing Luke to a life alone?… (mehr)

Luck is not on Daisy King’s side. First, she witnesses a Senator being murdered and then while hightailing it out of the senator’s home, all the while vowing to never again watch crime shows, as being part of a crime scene was far less than entertaining as it looks on television. That is if she makes it out alive and her not too trustworthy car decides to start up. Just when she thinks she is in the clear she gets snatched right out of the parking lot and lands on the doorstep of the O’Reilly clan.

Luke O’Reilly finds himself saddled with this petite little spitfire. One he can’t seem to get out of his mind. Luke is definitely not relationship material. He has seen and done things during his military career, until he was honorably discharged. He is a military man through and through and civilian life is hard enough to become adjusted to without the added stress of a quirky client that makes him feel things he never felt before.

Can Luke keep Daisy safe without risking his heart in the process? Or will Daisy worm herself into his life and Make Luke realize that love and family is what he deserves?

I knew right from the beginning, after starting to read this story, that it was going to be a keeper, especially since I was already laughing before I hit page ten. Daisy is quite the character with a flare for dramatics, especially within the first few pages of the story. I couldn’t help myself from liking her or keep myself from giggling when she was snatched by whom she thought was a “big bad guy.”

There are a lot of comedic scenes thrown into the story that I really loved. I especially love that there is a dog named Dick and a funny scene with Dick and Daisy that had me rollin. But, by no means did it take away from the emotional side of the situation either. Daisy’s life is in danger and you can feel the tension in the air. You know something is going to happen and when it does, I was not prepared for the twists and turns that it would take. Just when you think it is all over Stephanie St. Klaire throws another twist into the mix that leaves you right on the edge of your seat again.

Now, for the finale, let’s talk about those O’Reilly Brothers. OMG! HOT HOT HOT!!! These are the type of guys that make you just want to turn around and smack your real life boyfriend/husband with the book and say “Why can’t you be like them!” I for sure found my new book boyfriends. Yes! I said boyfriends. They are all mine and I am NOT sharing!

If you haven’t figured it out yet, I am totally in love with Luke, the third installment to the Brother’s Keeper series. I will admit that I have not read the previous two books (hangs my head in shame) and I can not wait to get my greedy little hands on them. Stephanie St Klaire you have just acquired a new fan for life.

Stephanie St. Klaire has become one of my favorite authors. Each book has hot Alpha guys & strong secure women. The women support their men in every way & the men protect them.

Daisy was in the wrong place at the wrong time & witnessed an execution. The O'Reilly's plucked her up off the street & whisked her away to safety. While they kept her safe, they began to investigate & see what was going on.

Luke considered himself a killer. It didn't matter that the men he killed were criminals & that he saved a large number of innocent victims, he had blood on his hands. He was determined to keep himself alone. There was no way anyone would accept this part of him.

Daisy comes off as a hippie wild child so I really didn't see how the combination of her & serious Luke was going to work. Man, am I glad I was wrong! The two characters were perfect for each other. She pulled him out of his own head & brought out a fun loving side he didn't know he had. He actually calmed Daisy down & settled her.

The plot of this story is action packed. It had twists & turns & just when you thought everything was smooth sailing, it twisted again! The story grabbed my attention from the first page & I dove in. When I finally looked up, I had just read the last word! I can't wait to read the next story! ( )
