Thanks to Leslie North for writing another superb series.

We met Trent Larson in book 1 of the Slade series with his brother Travis. Now we get to know a bit more about Trent and what his role is in the company. It kinda follows on from book 1 as well to do with Jawhara and the people behind the terrorists.

Chloe is a woman who has nothing to do with the terrorists, but does she know more than she's letting on. It's Trent's mission to find out what she knows and what they are hiding.

This is a good book. The two main characters are Chloe and Trent. Chloe has just moved to San Diego and is working as a secretary. Trent works for a security company. Trent meets Chloe because she works for a company that his company is investigating. They have lots of issues but together they work them out and find love.

Thanks to Netgalley for a copy of this book for an honest review.

Good series about Slade Security with this one about Trent. Some mistakes with names (Trevor turned up randomly but usually just Travis) but an OK read.

A big thank you to NetGalley and Relay Publishing for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. This is part of a series, but reads ok as a stand alone. It is a bit confusing maybe as it connects with a different series as well. Sort of convoluted. I found this to be instalove and sort of out there but still okay. It is a fun read. 3 stars

The slide security series has been extremely enjoyable and of course full of romance. Chloe and Trent's story is no different. Another brilliant read from North.

The third book in the Slade Security Trilogy and it is the turn of faux surfer dude Trent to have love come calling.

Trent and his identical twin brother Travis work for Slade Security, mainly on tech issues but this time Trent is going undercover at Guardians of the Earth, are they the outfit behind the sabotage in Jawharra.

Chloe is new in town having moved her and her father after he suffers an accident and needs specialist care, she has a job on Reception at Guardians of the Earth an eco charity and is rather taken with the new surfer dude (Trent) who came into volunteer for the cause.

This was another great book, having read the first two books in the series already, I had enjoyed the three so well I purchased the previous trilogy to get that back story of Jawharra.

I just wish there was a fourth book in this series, Travis's story felt a bit rushed.

Definitely a book well worth a read.

Thank you to Netgalley for a copy of this book in return for an honest review

Very enjoyable series, every book so far has good characters with a great story to go with them. Chloe and Trent are no,different. Chloe is in town for her dad and Trent is undercover when they meet. Sparks fly from the start and all his protective instincts are in play from the start.

Good romance story, can’t wait for the next one in the series.

His Innocent Lover is book 3 in the Slade Security Team series. It's possible to read as a standalone, but it would be better to read the entire series in order for full effect of the interconnecting storylines.

Trent Larsen believes he has discovered the cover business for a terrorist group that he is so close to stopping. Now he has to go in undercover to find the proof, but he ends up finding more than he was looking for.

Chloe Baker is a receptionist at an environmental agency while helping her father who is recovering from an illness. She has no knowledge of her employers true intentions and gets drawn into the danger when a handsome surfer turns her world upsidedown.

This was a fast-paced, suspenseful romance set in a dangerously exciting theme. Overall, the story was intriguing and I was invested to see how everything would shake out in the end. I definitely recommend reading all the books in order for best enjoyment. Well done!

I received an advanced review copy of this book via Netgalley and I am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

Chloe brings her dad to San Diego to a physical therapy hospital. She gets a job at Guardians of the Earth which is a save the environment association. Trent pretends to be a conservationist to infiltrate Guardian’s of the Earth. Slade Security believes they are behind the attacks on the oil wells in Jawara. He flirts with Chloe. They hit it off right away. He wants to get her to work for Slade Security. He thinks the people she works for are dangerous.

The book is well written. The heroine is trying to find her way in a new city. The hero is a strong protector who will do anything to save his clients as well as Chloe. I loved the series and can’t wait for Leslie North’s next book.

His Innocent Lover is the third book in the Slade Security Series by Leslie North and I loved it! This book can be easily read as a standalone romance or enjoyed as part of the series. (And I hope there is more to come in the world of Slade Security!)

This fast-paced romance/adventure was captivating and I could not put it down! I loved the characters and thought they were well-developed and relatable. The story was intense and filled with action and adventure!

I received a copy of His Innocent Lover by Leslie North from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This novel was okay, but I was not captivated and felt no connection to the characters or the plot. The summary seemed interesting, but the novel’s pacing was uneven and the characters were kind of bland. Just not my cup of tea.

He didn’t expect to fall for her for real, but it seems he has. However, he must proceed with the ruse and try to get information he needs. Chloe is very sensitive about lying and discovering he is not what he has pretended to be, she feels betrayed! Will he tell her what is truly at risk here?
