Rocky Mountain Venom by Elle James Brotherhood Protectors: Colorado #11. Romantic suspense. Can be read as a stand-alone. Vincent “Venom” Jones was a SEAL, but left the military after a collateral damage incident. He accepts a job offer from the Brotherhood Protectors as long as he doesn’t have to protect children. Maria Elana didn’t know her boyfriend was mixed up in a Mexican cartel until it was too late. He keeps her and her daughter locked up in a compound surround by guards, locked doors and lots of fences. Creating a shopping excursion after he hits he one too many times, this time in front of her daughter, Maria manages to escape out a bathroom window at the Mall and they go to the Brotherhood Protectors for help. Fast moving and full of danger. A bit predictable and formulaic but still exciting, steamy and romantic. A romantic escape read that satisfies.
