Wow, just wow! Desiree Holt has done it again. This book will have you turning pages. I couldn't put it down until the last page. I loved Kate and everyone needs a Quinn. I can't say enough great things about this book.

Ms. Holt is an auto buy for me. I love her spine tingling suspense and sexy heroes and heroines.

Kate Griffith is born the day she walks into her father's office and over hears her fiancé talking about his plan to murder her. Thanks to television suspense shows she runs, draws the cash she can and hides of the grid riding grey hound buses since that is the only way she can travel without identity. After a couple of close brushes with the guys pursuing her she buys a second hand car for cash and sets off driving the Interstate 10 from California until her car gives up the ghost in the rain at the side of a deserted highway.


Unbeknownst to Kate she has come a full circle right into the back yard of the crime cartel who is hunting her. Fortunately, her guardian angel is working overtime and she's rescued by a dark knight called Quinn who is the only person with a remote chance at keeping her safe or...……

As Quinn mobilizes his contacts, the hunt for her intensifies particularly since she has stolen a USB containing confidential cartel records as her insurance. Betrayals, counter betrayals and surprises piling up on surprises will keep the readers engrossed until the story is brought to a satisfactory conclusion.

This story definitely emphasizes why I keep Ms. Holt on my must buy list.

A fast paced read with great characters and a gripping storyline. Moving Target is the first book in the Guardian Security series and it had me quickly engaged, I look forward to reading more and recommend you grab your copy as well.

Kathryn uses her father's keys to walk into the office and overhears her death by plotted by her boyfriend. She is completely shocked, which seems strange, since only two days before she began weaning herself off the little white pills that he'd been giving her because they impaired her thinking. Her thinking is spot on now, and she grabs the flash drive that she hears them say is loaded with enough information to bring her boyfriend and his boss down for the murders of her parents and uncle. She goes on the run, eventually calling herself Kate and taking refuge with Quinn.

When they meet, there is instant attraction and they quickly act on that. But for fans of intrigue and danger, never fear, because Holt delivers! Mistaken identities, kidnappings, murders, gunfire, near-fatal wounds...it's all here, and it's a mile-a-minute pace. There is more going on with the plot than I expected; it is quite involved.

This is the first in a new series. I presume this will feature women who need a place to hide from their troubles, and the different men of this story will be the ones to save them. Holt always writes an entertaining story, so I look forward to the next one.

I received an arc from Netgalley. While I enjoyed the storyline of the drug cartel and Kate on the run I found the love story a bit unrealistic.

Man picks up woman on the road when she has a broken down car and brings her to his house. Man sleeps with a woman he just met and they act like they have been together for awhile. It’s all just a bit too unrealistic.

It was a good premise for a story, but the main characters felt two dimensional. I also didn't buy the immediate attraction between them. After our heroine meet the hero, I basically skimmed the rest of the book. Not bad, just boring

Holt uses her smooth writing skill to tell how Kathryn Burke manages to elude those who are set to see her dead. A strong determined character almost at the end of her endurance, Kate, encounters Quinn on a dark road when her car breaks down. These two make an amazing team battling a cartel along with healing in each others arms. Predict this will be a great series to follow. "A copy of this book was provided by The Wild Rose Press, Inc via Netgalley with no requirements for a review. Comments here are my honest opinion."

This is a fast-paced read with loads of drama and suspense. Kathryn transforms into Kate as she is in the run for her life. She is rescued by Quinn when she has car trouble and sparks fly. I was hooked from beginning to end. Entertaining story and great characters. I really liked it.

They say ignorance is bliss but not knowing would have gotten Kate killed. On the run for her life Kate gets lucky and ends up being rescued by the guy the cartels fear. Quinn has been living as a hermit since the death of his family he doesn’t want or need the distraction that Kate provides but he can’t just leave her stranded either. They end up being just what the other needs.
This is a sexy romantic suspense done as only Desiree Holt can do. This is an exciting, fast paced, adrenaline ride that is a guaranteed good read

Quinn and Kate jump into each other's arms rather fast. Kate needs to feel secure and Quinn just needs to feel.
Not much is known about Guardian Security, they don't enter the story until nearly the end of the book.
Moving Target, is a fast paced book. I couldn't put it down.
