Authors: Lily Harper Hart
Life should be good for James Hardy.
His business is thriving, his brothers are settled, and he's desperately in love with his girlfriend, Mandy.
Unfortunately, growing pains are straining his relationship, and when a misunderstanding overlaps with a catastrophic explosion at a charity event, Mandy’s life is left hanging in the balance.
The doctor says she’ll recover, and James is ready to do what is necessary to make sure their lives stay intertwined. Her recovery is difficult, and long, and it’s only compounded by a mixture of medication and misunderstandings, both of which spin things dangerously out of control.
James is determined to get their relationship back on track, but the mystery of who targeted her for elimination – and the dreams that subsequently plague him – have the eldest Hardy brother in a tailspin.
James promises to keep Mandy safe, but the enemy targeting them is obsessed – and relentless. Between his sister’s meddling, Mandy’s doubts, and James’ overwhelming worries, things are coming to a head.
James is ready to offer a happily ever after, but he needs to solve a mystery and keep his beloved safe if he’s going to get that chance.
Will this couple get a chance to realize their dreams, or will an unseen force stop them before they get a chance to embrace their future?

The Hardy brothers and their love stories aren’t over. Track their progress through upcoming books – and maybe find out a little more about the Hardy family, too.
Deadly Proposal:
James and Mandy have settled into a routine, but it’s not necessarily a happy one. Mandy is still looking for a house, but James seems reticent to help her with the endeavor. There’s something on his mind – but he’s keeping his cards close to his vest. When a new threat stirs up old memories, though, James goes into protection mode – which pushes Mandy over the edge. Can he keep her safe long enough to make all of their dreams come true?
Deadly Prospects:
Ally Hardy has watched all three of her brothers find happiness, and now she wants some of her own. When Hardy Brothers Security employs Jake Harrison to help with their expanding business, none of the of Hardy boys think he’s good enough for their baby sister. Ally has other ideas, though, whether Jake is agreeable to them or not. When Ally finds herself in boatload of trouble, it’s not her brothers she turns to. Jake can’t fight Ally’s pull, and, at a certain point, he’s not sure he even wants to try. Will this duo survive to find out if they can overcome the disappointment of three brothers and forge their own path?
Deadly Ever After:
Someone is getting married – although I’m not telling whom. The road to happily ever after is going to be littered with hurdles – and maybe a few bodies. Will a beloved couple get to say “I do”? Or will the enemy finally be too much for the Hardy family to overcome?
Deadly Honeymoon:
After more drama – and a romantic wedding – one of your favorite couples is going on a honeymoon. After frolicking in the sun – and getting frisky in the water – they discover a dead body. The mystery surrounding that death follows them home – and haunts the entire family in the days following.
Deadly Questions:
Grady has never been fond of Sophie’s foster father, Peter Marconi, the mob associations always giving him pause. When Peter approaches Hardy Brothers Security with a problem – Grady is hard pressed to deny him. Someone is trafficking young women across the Michigan border to Canada, and Peter needs help figure out whom. Grady agrees to help, but only if Peter is honest. Can Grady and Sophie find common ground when his family starts fighting with hers?
I’m a romantic at heart. A true romantic. I love the idea of a happy ending, so much so I have trouble writing a sad one. The world is sad enough. I like escaping in fiction. That’s just me. I like sarcasm and snark – but I’m not sure a sad ending is in me. If you’re looking for an edge like that, you’re probably looking in the wrong place. Just FYI.
When approaching the Hardy Brothers Security series, I decided to do it differently than a normal series romantic suspense series. I started out with James and Mandy – and I’ll continue on to the other Hardy family members – but I plan on continuing everyone’s stories in each progressive book.
What does that mean? It means you’ll see progression with James and Mandy in Grady’s story. You’ll find progression with James, Mandy, Grady and Sophie in Finn’s story – and so on. Everyone is going to get a shot at love – and story fulfillment.
I love these characters and I want them to live on. Each book will not be strictly about one couple’s story. I want everyone to grow together.
