For the woman who’s his perfect match, he’s willing to break the rules…

The moment Brand Berry meets beautiful, driven Sahara Silver, the connection between them is electric. It’s also something he can’t pursue. Sahara wants him, sure—to join Body Armor, where his MMA skills, size and cocky attitude make him perfect for her elite crew of bodyguards. For Sahara, the agency always comes first, and Brand needs more. Yet when she’s kidnapped by men searching for her missing brother, he doesn’t hesitate.

Somewhere along the way, flirting with Brand for the sake of business turned very personal. Despite his refusal to join Body Armor, it’s Brand who steps up when Sahara needs him most. Now there’s no more time for games, and no point denying the hunger they both feel. They’ll escape together or not at all. But if they survive, can Sahara finally surrender control to claim this blazing passion?

Happy Release Day for Fast Burn!  The last book in the Body Armor series comes out today.  Fast Burn was a great way to end the series.  Finally we get Sahara and Brand's story.  Ms. Foster always saves the best for last.  Sahara has been trying to hire Brand for her agency, but he has been resisting.  She also wants him in her bed.  Brand has been fighting his feelings for a long time.  When Sahara is kidnapped, Brand decides it's up to him to protect her at all cost.

Sahara has been a great character to follow.  She is a commanding woman who everyone likes and respects.  She has a hard exterior, but can also show a softer side.  What I loved about Brand was the way he didn't try to change her strong mind and authority. Well, except when he wanted to protect her.  Sahara was also able to let her guard down around Brand.  They were a great match and it was fun to watch them banter and feed off each other. There were a lot of funny moments. Not to mention some very steamy bedroom scenes.

As usual, I won't give away any plot, it would ruin so much. We do get to find out what happened to Scott, Sahara's brother.  It was a good mystery with some finger nail biting scenes.  It's out today.  Go read it!  You won't be sorry.  While I am sad to see this series end and to say goodbye to a long list of characters that I have loved for years, I do look forward to seeing what Ms. Foster comes up with next.
