Garrett (Dark Water Security #2)Garrett by Madison Quinn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

One thing I like about the Dark Water Security Series by Madison Quinn is that you do not need to read the other books to be able to follow along. Garrett, the second book in the series holds true to that statement. Madison Quinn is a contemporary romance author who does not focus on the romance part of the story, do not get me wrong romance is there but there is a story around the romance. Garrett and Hope had one night together and he did not think he would see Hope again. Well the new job has Garrett sharing living space with Hope again. Garrett needs to do security for a guy which is getting intense. Garrett vows to protect his client and Hope but Hope is hiding something from Garrett. What will the outcome of Garrett and Hope’s relationship be? Will Hope tell Garrett what she is hiding from him?

Garrett by Madison Quinn

5-stars

Garrett by Madison Quinn was a phenomenal read from start to finish! It’s the 2nd book in the Dark Water Security Series, a series I would recommend reading in order for proper storyline introduction.

Garrett’s story was so well written with so many details the storyline flowed so well. There was just enough going on that I was highly entertained the whole way through. I loved being able to follow Hope as she discovers how to live a great life after trauma. The two of them together were perfection and I hope to read more about them in the future!

I would recommend this book and series to anyone looking for their next read!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Garrett (Dark Water Security Series Book 2) by Madison Quinn is a story about second chances. It is a story that has secrets and lies, a little mystery and suspense and a little danger and intrigue. I would have liked to see more a little more danger, but overall I enjoyed the story and Madison’s writing style. I would read book one first because the characters crossover as it is about the men of the Dark Water Security, and let me tell you they are some smoking hot men.

Garrett is an ex-marine and a newby with the Dark Water Security team who is still trying to sort his life out after the marines. So when he is offered a new assignment as live in personal security guard he has no qualms. However, when he arrives he sees someone who he has not been able to get out of his mind since the wonderful night they spent together and now she wants nothing to do with him.

Hope spent on beautiful night with a stranger but what happened after she left, changed her life forever. She cannot think about one without thinking about the other and one just about killed her. Now she has come face to face with the new security guard, who just happens to be the beautiful stranger but as the two are intertwined everything that happened that night comes rushing back, threatening to destroy her.

I can’t wait to read book three

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Garrett by Madison Quinn is the second book in the Dark Water Security series. I loved Garrett, he was just an amazing guy and after meeting his parents I could see why.

Hope’s life changed two and a half years ago, she went from the best night to the worse in a blink of an eye. She has struggled to start living again after that night but thanks to her best friend she is able to start moving forward.

Garrett is fairly new with Dark Water Security and is surprised when he walks into his new job. He never expected this small twist of fate when he got ready for work that day.

They both have wounds from their past they keep haunting them, especially at night though Hope’s seem to effect her more. It almost seems like anyone associated with Dark Water Security has some stuff in their past that seems to cause some problems for them every now and again.

I really enjoyed this book a lot, there was just something about them. I do have some questions about Garrett and his past. Nothing huge or really pertaining to the story, just curiosity on my part.

Looking forward to the next book.

By: Madison Quinn
My Rating: 4 of 5 stars

Garrett (Dark Water Security #2) by Madison Quinn was an engaging, interesting read that held my attention.

Not my first read from this author or in this series. I met Garrett in the first book, “Luke”, so I was eager to get my hands on this book when I seen it was about him. Though this book is part of a series, it reads as a standalone, and the books takes place away from the “office” you could say, so there aren’t many, actually hardly no, spoilers from that first book.

As much as I like this book, I will say that it was a little slow going. Not just with the romantic plot, and why his lady love left him high and dry, all those years ago, but with the actual reason Garrett was there in the first place. The action plot/mystery. There was such a build up that I, felt a little, meh, at the climax, and frankly, I don’t know it was because it took so long to get there that the author may have lost some of that spark along the way.

Overall though, this book was well crafted, fun, and I very much love the MC’s interactions. I felt it, and it was believable. So yes this books isn’t all shoot them up, but this has this charm to it that keeps you reading, keeps you entertained, and keeps you intrigued. So please take my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval, that you will fall into this easy read.

Happy Reading

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Garrett by Madison Quinn is the second book in the Dark Water Security series. This book focuses on Garrett. He is a part of the Dark Water Security team and was briefly introduced in book one. This can be read as a standalone and still be enjoyed completely. Garrett is working as live-in security for a tech guy when Hope comes back into his life. The two had a possible missed opportunity at something several years back. Will this time be different?
I really like Garrett and Hope. Both characters are smartly written and there is a good dialogue between them. I also like the build-up of suspense and danger in the story. I cannot wait to see where this series goes next.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Garrett is the second book on Madison Quinn’s Dark Water Security series. Madison Quinn gave us an earth shaking opening with Luke and she continues strong in Garrett. Garrett is not as intense as Luke but in no way are we disappointed with him! We could see the promise of him in the first book, considering how brief his appearance was, it does tell you something!
Garrett’s assignment is working personal security for a tech mogul and he needs to live on site. This live in comes with a surprise though – never ever did he imagine that he would come face to face with ‘the one who got away’. Hope disappeared from his bed after an unforgettable night and leaving Garrett with nothing but a memory …
In some ways we have sort of two stories in one – we have the mystery of what happened that night and what happened to Hope and then this bodyguard gig and the danger to the tech mogul. The writer is very good at building up the suspense and yes, at times it feels as if the story is moving a bit too slow but the way how the story is told, you do not dare to put the book down as you need to know who where what how why …
I cannot wait to see what the writer will give us next as every single one of the Dark Water Security team members deserves a story!

Garrett (Dark Water Security book 2) By Madison Quinn is a contemporary romance was an excellent follow-up to Luke, the first book in the series. This story features Garrett who works for Dark Water Security. A live-in security positions brings him back to a woman, Hope, that Garrett met following a wedding years ago. This story is a wonderfully written second chance romance that has amazing chemistry between the lead characters, along with drama, suspense and uncertainties. The way the events unfold in this story were excellently written and made the entire book flow seamlessly. Each book in this series is better than the previous and I cannot wait to see what comes next!!

Garrett is the second book in the Dark Water Security Series. It can be read as a standalone.

I really enjoyed this story. It kept up a pretty good pace and the characters were easy to connect with. I did find that the ending was a little anticlimactic, I was really thinking there was going to be more to the whole lifestyle scenario with Mr. Meyer’s brother. That piece seemed like a loose end after the conversation that is overheard. I had a little chuckle at Hope’s first encounter with her boss’ lifestyle choices. If you’re not familiar with it, it can be a bit shocking, lol.

Overall, I found it a good way to entertain your imagination on a rainy day.

Garrett (Dark Water Security book 2) By Madison Quinn

I have to say that this book had me frustrated at a secondary character from the get go but it didn’t take away from the main characters too much. Just he had me mad i couldn’t figure him out.
Garrett and Hope met a couple years ago, had a great night and then life changed drastically for one of them.
When they meet again, it brings memories back that they don’t think they can make it through.
As they get to know one another more, and continue working, we get to see more of the Dark Water Security team again, but not too much.

I enjoyed this story, and the tough subject that was touched on was done well.
Can’t wait for more from this series.

Garrett is the second book in the Dark Water Security Series by Madison Quinn. After reading Luke (Book #1), I was intrigued by the rest of the Dark Water Security team, so when this book released, I wanted to read it to find out what happens and discover more about Garrett, who was the ‘new guy’ on the team in book #1. This is a story of second chances, secrets, danger, suspense, some mystery, drama, threats, intrigue, chemistry, and steamy encounters.
As I’ve mentioned, we met Garrett back in book #1- he’s an ex-marine and new to the DWS team. His new assignment working personal security for a Tech mogul requires him to live on site, something he isn’t too keen on. But what he doesn’t expect to find there is ‘the one who got away’ two and a half years ago. She disappeared from his bed after an unforgettable night of passion, leaving nothing but a memory. Now he’s determined to discover why. But what happens when danger comes calling? What happens when her secret is revealed? All these answers can be found by reading the intriguing details for yourself.
I enjoyed this story more than the first book, but again I felt a little ‘let down’ by the ‘big reveal’- it was a bit of an anti-climax after such a great build up. The danger element was well done, but again I felt it needed to be more explosive/powerful to fit in with all the ‘lead-up’. But overall, it’s an enjoyable story.
I am intrigued by what I will find in Book #3.

Thank you, MS. Quinn!

Garrett (Dark Water Security Book 2) By Madison Quinn. Once again this author blew me away with an incredible story. Hope and Garrett’s story was amazing and I just couldn’t put it down. Only draw back is it ending when I wanted it to go on forever. There’s times of heartwarming and times that could be tough to read but every single aspect of this storyline draws readers into the book. The characters are complex and relatable, I just can’t see myself forgetting them anytime soon. It’s well written and paced nicely. It’s truly an adventure with Garrett and Hope. Pick up this book and book one because they are both amazing. I’m giving this book A five star review and highly recommend it.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Book one in the Dark Water Security series from Madison Quinn really set the bar HIGH for me, as I absolutely adored it. I was skeptical that this one would reach the heights that it did and yet Madison Quinn managed to steal my heart away again with the story of Garrett and Hope. I will say maybe not as much as the first couple did, but still fabulous and sweetly.

Garret and Hope had that one perfect night, you know the one, so many of us like to erase and hide in the back of our minds as a, ‘Why did I do that? Oh yeah it was fantastic!’type of night. It isn’t your typical second chance romance though and does have some sweet and cute twists between Garrett and Hope that make the story just too much fun, and almost impossible to put down until you find out what will happen for these two. Will they get their happily ever after? For all the juicy details though you will have to snag a copy of your own. I can’t wait to see what we will get in book three!

Garrett by Madison Quinn is the second book in the dark water security series. This book can be read as a stand-alone and does not have to be read in order.
This book is incredible. The first book in the series has been a strong start and this one just takes it all the next step. I loved Hope and Garrett. Their story seemed so real and easy to connect with. Everything hope had been through added a whole new level to the characters.
Madison Quinn really knows how to take you, as the reader on a journey. This book was fast paced and intense. She knew when to hold back a little and when to push on full steam ahead. A brilliant read and one I thoroughly enjoyed.

I LOVED this book! I loved every single second of it! In fact I read it in one complete sitting, forgetting everything else that was going on around me! I do really love this author, she never fails to drag me into her stories from the very first word and as I expected Garrett was no different! I loved the slower pace of the story as that meant I got more time with Garrett – oh be still my heart!! He is definitely on my book boyfriend list! I loved him and Hope together! They had such a great chemistry and a genuine attraction to each other. There were some great twists and turns nestled amongst all the action and suspense of this story! I am really looking forward to reading more from this series in the future!

Garrett and Hope meet again after 2 years apart by chance. Hope is the housekeeper for Mr. Meyer and Garrett is working security for Dark Water Security. With the two sharing staff quarters they realize their connection is just as intense as it was the night they met. Both are dealing with trauma and find comfort and safety in each other. With their boss’s kinks and threats going on, can the two get past the traumas of the last two years?

This was a great read! I am really enjoying this series. The characters are believable and the story line is great! I’m hoping Cole’s book is next! My interest in him is definitely piqued after this book.

My 2nd book by this author and also the second in this series…I loved it..I love the whole Dark Water Security team and can not wait for this series to continue.

I love the writing style of this author, although it flows so smooth it’s hard to slow down so the book doesn’t end quite so fast LOL.

Garrett and Hope’s story was awesome, yet hard to read in some parts, the dreams were rough! I loved the dynamic between these two characters and the family addition was amazing. The first meeting of Garrett’s Mom and Hope tore at my heart strings and I thought that was a fantastic addition to the story.

I loved how unique this story was and OMG what they had to endure living in their apartment…Yea I can’t imagine and it made me cringe more than once.

I highly recommend reading these books. I suppose this could be read as a stand alone but I would not recommend that as the characters from the first book are still present in this one and you’d be missing out on their story.

Bring on #3!!

Loved It!!!

This is the second story in the “Dark Water Security” series and can be read as a stand-alone.

Dark Water Security is a firm that employees veteran’s to provide security for a variety of clients. Garrett is one of the newer employees. Hope is a live-in house manager who has recently overcome an event in her past that caused her to withdraw from life for a while.

This book was pretty clear cut. Each character is introduced with enough background that you know who everyone is. There is a little bit of suspense in this tale and the story is written in such a way that I didn’t “figure it out” before I was meant to.

I look forward to reading Cole’s story next.

This is an good story. For the second in the series it can be read as a stand alone. The writing was nice but seemed too focused the relationship. Meaning I really wish there was more Interaction between a few of the characters(from Dark waters or even Abby) instead of the day to day of the two MC. I was hoping for some bonding between the girls (Emily and Hope). Or even from the guys at the Security firm.

Hope has had a struggle the last few years. After a lovely night she disappears on Garrett. Garrett seems like a super sweet guy and has some great qualities. He’s looking to recover that lost love. Once he sees Hope he wonders if they can make it work. This is a second chance story.

This is an amazing second book in the Dark Water Security series. Highly recommended reading.

Two and a half years ago at a buddy’s wedding, I found the perfect woman. The one who actually made me want to try for something more than a one night stand. But before I had the chance to even find out her last name, she was gone.

With my time in the Marines behind me, I’m starting a new position providing live-in security to some rich tech guy who has been receiving threats. I’m not certain I’m going to accept the position until I learn the mysterious woman who disappeared on me happens to be my new roommate. There’s no way I can turn down this position.

What’s even more surprising than her walking into the room to serve us dinner, is that she refuses to talk about the night we spent together! What makes the color leave her face, her hands start to shake and look like she’s on the verge of a panic attack at the mere mention of that night?

When the threats against our new boss start escalating, I vow to protect the both of them even if she continues to hide something from me. I don’t know what it is about her, but she hasn’t been far from my thoughts for the last two years and I’m not about to let her go just because my new boss pissed off a few people.

Luke (Dark Water Security #1)Luke by Madison Quinn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Luke is the first instalment of the Dark Water Security series. A contemporary romance that deals with some dark and disturbing issues, it had me hooked from the very first chapter. While it’s a lot darker than I normally go for, I absolutely loved this story and the characters we meet. Luke and Emily have a connection so strong that it’s believable, despite this being a short and intense read. If you like your romances with added danger, this is a must read for you.

The book opens in a dark place, with Luke held prisoner at the hands of a violent and unrelenting monster. Forced to fit for his life, Luke has all but given up hope of ever escaping. So when his rebellion causes an innocent, fifteen-year old girl to join him in captivity, he puts every last ounce of strength in finding a way to free them both. Ten years later and Luke has made a life himself. A distinguished army service and now running a private security firm, the last thing he needs is to be thrown into the past. Seeing him work with Emily again is so addictive. I was hooked on reading their scenes together and seeing the chemistry fly. Emily is a very different person to the one he remembers, and seeing her so strong was empowering after everything she has been through.

If fear and danger is what you’re looking for, this book ticks all of the boxes. It starts and ends with Emily in hot water, so be prepared for a rollercoaster read. The story deals with some difficult themes, so expect some hard to read moments, especially at the start of the book. The author writes these really well, being respectful but realistic at the same time. Like I said, this is darker than I normally read but I absolutely loved it and will definitely be recommending it to others.

Luke is the first book in the Dark Water Security series. This book can be read as a standalone. There is some subject matter that may be a trigger for some readers.

I got hooked from the beginning. Even though the story is a bit predictable, it is still entertaining; and I read it in a couple of hours because I couldn’t put it down. The characters are well written and you really find yourself empathizing with Luke’s character. After everything he goes through, he still finds a way to be the person for others that he needed when he was young.

The only thing that could have made this even better was a bit of a stronger ending.

Luke by Madison Quinn is the first book in the Dark Water Security Series. This book covers some fairly dark themes and may not be suitable for all readers. However, if you are ok with this then you really should give this book a try!
This book was such an emotional one, it was deep and gritty and really knows how to sink its claws into you. The opening throws you straight in, leaving you gasping to keep up with everything going on. You know immediately that you are in for a serious ride.
As the first book I have read by this author it has introduced me to someone I will definitely have to check out in more depth.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Luke was a great 5 star read and book one of the Dark Water Security.

We start the story with Luke at a young age being tormented and beaten. If he doesn’t win fights his beatings get worse. My heart broke for what he went through. When his tormentor doesn’t think the beatings are enough he brings in someone else that will be beaten in his place. This is when he meets Em. They develop a close friendship and love for each other.

What if I’m tired of surviving?

After their escape we jump ahead a few years. Luke is now a partner in Dark Water Security. He thinks about Em all the time, wondering where she is, if she has a family, etc.. When he meets a friend of his partner that will be assisting in some cases, he is taken back to memories of Em. Could she be his Emily? Can they find the love they once had?

Emily was a fighter just as much as Luke was, they were meant to be brought together to help each other get through this terrible ordeal. Both of them used their experience to help others instead of going down a dark hole. The secondary characters added a great element to the story. I will warn that there are some scenes that may be triggers for some. Madison Quinn does a great job of pulling you in with her writing. I can’t wait to read more from this series.

It is a highly emotional read full of pain and suffering, angst and terror, deceit and horrors you can only dream about. It is well written and the wonderful characters are well developed and multi layered. I read this book in one sitting, I was so invested and there is so much going on in this book and there was never a time that I wanted to put it down. There was no way and I mean no way that I could put it down until I knew the outcome. I also had to remember to breathe, just this simple action was sometimes hard to remember as I was so emotionally into this book.

I will not tell you about the story, I will let you discover it all on your own but as I said before it may cause triggers to some people.

I can’t wait to get my hands on the next book in the series and see what happens next.

Luke (Dark Water Security #1)Luke by Madison Quinn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Luke (Dark Water Security Series Book 1) by Madison Quinn is a romance with some dark topics and suspense. The story follows Luke and Emily. Luke has a tragic past and the two work together. Can they keep their feelings to the side while working?
I liked the concept and the overall story that was presented. There were some shortcomings in the story where I felt I was missing something or that a part had been skipped. Overall, I enjoyed the characters and story and will be coming back to read the next in the series. I hope that the series develops both in plot but in execution. This is a good read and I do recommend it if you like a suspense with romance. Be warned there are some sensitive subjects that are part of the story but they are not used gratuitously.
