Intensity. Skill. Tenacity.
The bodyguards of Elite Guardians Agency have it all.

  But when Wade's bodyguard is attacked and nearly killed, agency owner Olivia Edwards must step in and fill the gap. Olivia's skills are about to be tested to the limit as Wade's stalker moves from leaving innocent gifts at his door to threatening those closest to him. Olivia has the feeling that she's next on the list. And to complicate things even further, she realizes that her heart may be in as much danger as her client.
  
  Bestselling author and fan favorite Lynette Eason drops readers right into the action in this fast-paced new series with a unique twist. Readers will love these strong female characters who put it all on the line to save lives.

My thoughts:  ALWAYS WATCHING is a fast paced romantic suspense, the first book in the much anticipated (by this reader) new series by Lynette Eason. I borrowed this book from a friend to read (so was not obligated to review) but I will because I really loved it.

Once I picked up ALWAYS WATCHING my attention was completely snared by the plot. Even the opening chapter, written in the "bad guys" point of view grabbed me.  I  had to keep reading.  I was so engaged in the story I forgot to even try to figure out who was behind the attacks until about three-fourths of the way through, then I started having suspicions and trying to work it out. There was a twist I didn't see coming which is all I'll say about that since I don't want to give anything away. 

If you like romantic suspense, you will love ALWAYS WATCHING. The sexual tension between Wade and Olivia isn't as palpable as in some of Ms. Eason's previous books, but the suspense tension is definitely high as you wonder how Wade's stalker knows him and his schedule so well. 

A definite twist on who the body guards are, a group of strong female characters who have untold resources and abilities. ALWAYS WATCHING is a great book. 5 stars.
