About the Book

Book: Certain Threat

Author: Kimberly Rose Johnson

Genre: Romantic Suspense

Release Date: October 6, 2020

Katrina White’s garage explodes and she fears someone is out to get her.

Not long after Katrina overhears two people talking about robbing the bank where she works, her attached garage explodes. With the help of her neighbor, Frank Davis, she escapes the burning home after a storage shelf falls over, trapping her beneath it.

The co-owner of Protection Inc. has one thing on his mind for the week of Christmas—rest and relaxation, but when his favorite neighbor needs his help he calls in his team. Unable to turn their backs on someone Frank clearly has feelings for, the co-owners agree to help out Katrina.

When things escalate, Frank is certain of two things—he cares a lot for Katrina and he can’t let anything happen to her.

Join the team of Protection Inc. this Christmas where love is in the air even in the midst of danger.

My Thoughts

 "Certain Threat" is the third book in the Protection, Inc. series, but you could read it as a standalone. Things are mentioned from the other books, but you don't feel like you are missing part of the picture. I do recommend reading series in order, though, just because it gives you a bit more of the history. I liked seeing the softer side of Frank in this book. We get three points of view in the story: Frank, Katrina, and Carissa. There was a small amount of a biblical element in the story. There was one thing I was a little disappointed/confused about. I wasn't entirely sure if Katrina was a Christian or not. She said she believed in God and then when she wanted to know more about having a relationship with God, she was told to pray like she was talking to Him like you would a person. If she weren't a Christian, she would need to accept Him as her savior first. But if she were already saved and just wanted a closer walk with Him, then the advice would be right. Walking up to a stranger and talking to them doesn't make you part of their family. I enjoyed the book and liked the characters. I didn't have a clue who was behind the events, so that was nice. I look forward to reading more books about the people involved with Protection, Inc.

More from Kimberly

Certain Threat was one of my favorite books to write. There are three point of view characters. Two have been in the series from book one and the third is a new addition in this book.

I adore Frank, the hero of this book. The man is tough, honest, and always does his best to do the right thing. He’s a good example for his younger business partners who like to do things their own way, especially Carissa.

For me the most fun part about writing this book was getting inside Frank’s head. He comes across as tough and sometime gruff, but he is a marshmallow on the inside when it comes to Katrina, his neighbor. Katrina brings out a side in Frank we haven’t yet witnessed and it was a blast to write—no pun intended. LOL you’ll understand when you read the book.

I look forward to writing future books in this series and going deeper with the rest of the Protection Inc. team and their friends.
