Good Enough (The Deadman’s Tribe Series Book 1) by Nicole Craig – Review by Shea Gilkerson 1/29/24

Good Enough — The Deadman’s Tribe Book 1: A Protector Romance / Romantic Suspense by Nicole Craig
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Kai is a take-no-guff, force-to-be-reckoned-with spitfire of a director in Hollywood who has big goals to do justice to her movie about a team of SEALs and is seeking professional help. Waters is a physically powerful, dangerous man working consultation jobs until he heals and who doesn’t exist by anything other than Waters. Neither of them have the time or inclination to pursue a relationship, but chemistry seems to have other ideas.

After her previous expert had to bail, he offered her help in the form of calling in a favor to others who may be able to help her in his place and this is where Kai and Waters’ irresistible draw to one another begins. It begins with Kai being able to keep her mouth under control even worse than usual, and Waters acting robotic in order to not let her see his interest in her, while the disembodied voice of ‘God’ coming from all corners of the room. What originally seems like a pretty cut and dried request with a fiery beauty of a director to Waters quickly turns into much more, and that’s not even factoring in their magnetism to one another.

As Waters learns more about Kai, he starts to catch on to her situational awareness and ability to call people for what they are as being survival defenses, but from what? Before you know it, Waters makes it his job to protect Kai from the threats, break-ins and accidents that have now led to her brother going missing. Is Kai being targeted on behalf of her brother? Is she the end goal? Will they be able to keep one another safe, or is it their hearts they need protection from?

There are some parts included that could trigger some readers with assault.
