His Secret Mission – Book 7 (After, New Beginnings & The Excellence Club)

Amazon quote:

Former Secret Service agent Hunter Huddleston worked to keep his professional and personal lives very separate—reducing chances of being targeted and ensuring the safety of his family. Suddenly leaving his beloved job at the Secret Service, for publicly undisclosed reasons, he struggles to deal with how he fell in love with his former charge—the First Daughter Susan Wells—who is off limits, way above his class, and highly protected. Worse still, as she tries to bridge the gap between them, he finds out that there are people to whose benefit it was that she remain unattached.

When a series of murders leave Hunter as the only witness—and prime suspect—will Susan’s father, President Wells, accept Hunter’s innocence and allow him to marry his daughter?

Or will the triple label of having an ex-convict in his family, being a suspect in murder investigations, and mixing a professional encounter with personal interests, cost him his future, the love of his life, and land him behind bars?

First Daughter Susan Wells has lived most of her life securely protected behind high walls, vigilant eyes, and classy facades. She longed to meet and marry a man who was down-to-earth, God-fearing, and real. When she met agent Hunter Huddleston, beyond his handsome appearance, she knew he had everything she’d ever wanted in a man. But regulations dictating his expected professional conduct force them into a tough choice. And just then, they discover that danger—and threats to their love and union—were not far behind.
