Wow, what a ride. Nothing is what it appears. Lots of good twist and turns in the plot. Quinn finds Kate stuck on the side of the road and rescues her. Not realizing he is getting in way over his head. Kate and Quinn are quick to bond and fight off the people chasing after her.

Settle in for action, romance, and good tale in this first book of Guardian Security series.
Ebook from netgalley and publishers with thanks. Opinions are entirely my own.

Kathryn Burke or Kate as she transforms herself into is on the run from killers. Quinn comes reluctantly to her rescue. This is a great thrill ride of a story. Kate did was a little annoying but the story over all was solid.

A fast-paced, thrilling read with plenty of action and strong characterization. I enjoyed this sexy, quick romantic suspense and look forward to more from the author.

ARC received for review

It was a good first book, but Kate was so whiny and needy and I just didn't like her. Plus Quinn fell a little too quick for what he went through in his past. The bad guys sure were everywhere, and I do mean everywhere. No idea which of his friends will be up next.

Great start to the series! Very fast-paced and suspenseful. The romance was hot and the characters had great chemistry. This was an enjoyable read and one I'd recommend.

This is a fast-paced read with loads of drama and suspense. I wouldn't call this a fun read but it is hot and a story that is hard to put down.

Moving Target by Desiree Holt is a nail biter thriller. The actions starts right away and keeps up for most of the story. I loved the twists and surprises. Great characters that are complex and believable. I wouldn't call this a fun read but it is hot and a story that is hard to put down.

Exciting, engaging, thrilling, action packed and emotional adventure filled with danger, chills, mystery and undeniable passion......

Kathryn Burke is on the run and struggling to stay one step ahead of the killer on her tail.... she never expected to run right into the arms of sexy, strong and cunning protector that she just can not find the power to resist despite the danger..... Highly entertaining romantic adventure.

This was a good book! You immediately feel for Kathryn and the upheaval she receives in the beginning of the book. Then you get to marvel at her ability to function when others would crumble. Then we meet Quinn, griff, no nonsense but kind Quinn. He wants nothing more that to go home and instead finds a cold, wet Kate.

Want to know what has Kate running? Want to know why Quinn has to help her that night. Read it! 🤓😁

Good story. The action off the start kept you wanting more. And the characters are well written.
Will definitely recommend this book and author.

Was a wonderful book! Kept me on my toes. Excellent plot and writer. Loved it. Can not wait to read more from the author. So many emotions I went through reading this book.

Kathryn Burke is on the run from killers and she has no idea why. Kate Griffin has landed into the hands of a dark knight with a tortured past. Seeing his chance for redemption, Quinn must fight to expose the killer or risk history repeating itself.

The first book in the Guardian Security series is a thrilling story and Kate and Quinn are strong characters that easily draw readers in and hold them captive. The relationship is full of sizzling chemistry but also of dangerous obstacles which keep readers glued to the pages as they join Kathryn on her frantic cross-country transformation into Kate while on the run from killers and readers can’t help but fall for her the sexy and tortured knight that certainly didn’t count on falling for the girl.
Emotional turmoil has this couple fighting their attraction throughout which along with all the excitement of trying to stay alive and discovering just who the bad guys are guarantees that there is never a dull moment in this fast paced plot full of thrilling suspense, adrenaline pumping action and surprising twist that keeps readers guessing and wondering just who can they trust and who will come out on top.

Once again, Desiree Holt provides readers with a stirring romance that kept me on the edge of my seat and I can’t wait to read to read the next book in this exhilarating series.

Desiree Holt is a new to me author and I'm pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed this book. I got hooked on the plot, the action, and the sexiness. This is a quick read and once you start, you are not going to want to stop till you are finished.

This is a fantastic book chock full of romance and suspense. I couldn't put it down!!Love Kate and Quinn!!!

Thank you to Netgalley for providing me with an Advanced Reader Copy (ARC) of Moving Target by Desiree Holt. All opinions stated are my own and have not been influenced in any way.

I read this book in one sitting, which is one thing it's got going for it. But the writing was disjointed and awkward, and the main character was not likeable most of the time.

I found Kate to be whiny and annoying, and the every single chapter that took place in Peter's perspective for the first half of the book was the exact same thing just repeated. There is no reason to have dual perspective if one of the characters adds nothing to the plot.

As for the ARC, I found the editing to be pretty lackluster and I would definitely recommend removing most of Peter's chapters from the novel before publishing.

As for what got the book three stars, I think the premise was good but it just had bad execution. I LOVED that the bad guys worked for the cartel and the terms used, "federales" etc, were accurate. I really liked Quinns character but to be honest I would have been more interested in reading about Quinns story with his wife and him slaughtering that other cartel than reading the book I read. I thought the police in the book were portrayed pretty accurately as well. 

This book has its ups and downs but it was a pretty solid three stars. I dont think I'd recommend it though, and I dont know that I'd be interested in reading anything else by this author.

Desiree Holt never fails to deliver and Moving Target is no exception. The first book in her new Guardian Security series, it’s fast paced, exciting and edge of your seat addictive.

Ms Holt’s world building is superb, and her characters are always strong and engaging. I’m looking forward to the next in this fabulous new series.

The charged tension begins on the first page and carries the reader through to the last.

The book’s description and blurb accurately explains the story-line without giving too much away.

I found the story compelling, wondering as I read what I would have done if the situation was mirrored. I don’t think I would have done half as well as Kate. Although, the chance of finding my very own Quinn, makes me wonder if it would be worth trying…

This is a wonderful book that begins with tension and bursts with romance. An excellently written novel with a great story-line and addictive characters. Definitely worth the purchase price as I believe I could read, and reread, this book again.

Congratulations Ms Holt, you’ve done it again; provided the reader with an excellent way to escape real life and disappear into an enthralling, fascinating and riveting world of romance.

Wow! I wasn't sure about this book in the beginning, Kathryn seemed like one of those TSTL characters. I am glad to be wrong. She completely changed and became pretty awesome. Loved Quinn and the fast pace of this book. Great read.
