Hollywood Hitmen, Book 1
By Maggie Marr
Release Date: September 20,
2016
Synopsis
Hot Hollywood Nights… Box office breaker, Natalie Warner might
be the Princess of Tinseltown, but she’s a starlet with a bad attitude, a
frightening past, and a stalker. Former SEAL Beck Tatum has a mission and no
patience for Hollywood bad girls. He must protect Natalie and stay out of her
bed–both missions seem nearly impossible.
Natalie Warner can’t ignore the risk any longer. A star on the
rise, her latest film is on track to be the biggest box office breaker of the
summer but Natalie isn’t safe. Someone is after her. Could it be her angry
addict father or her mother who always wanted to be a star herself? What about
her ex-boyfriend who just did time? The Studio refuses to ignore the threat and
forces Natalie to take on a bodyguard, but that bodyguard comes in the shape of
rugged, irresistible Beck Tatum, because whoever is after Natalie isn’t going
to stop until someone makes them.
A question, wrapped in a riddle, Beck Tatum doesn’t know what
part of the government he worked for before he lost his memory or what exactly
his mission was. He can remember that he loved and that he lost that woman as
well as his memories on that final mission. Now with a second chance, he’s
assigned to protect a high-value asset. Rich and entitled but yet kind and
vulnerable, Natalie Warner isn’t the spoiled rich woman Beck expected. But
falling for her would put her life on the line and Beck isn’t about to lose
anything else.

Excerpt
“The first letters?” Beck stood in the main operations room with
Remi. He opened the file. He’d read and reread the letters and the file over
the last two days. Each letter had a different picture of Natalie Warner cut
from a magazine with a giant red X through the photo. Beneath the photo of
Natalie, in an angry red scrawl, were the words Kill The Whore.
“They came back clean without prints. Mailed from varying
locations in Los Angeles, so nothing there. They’ve escalated to following her.
They tailed her all the way home last week.”
Beck looked up from the papers.
Remi shook his head. “No plates. You have everything you need?”
“Sounds like she’s a tough one.”
“Doesn’t trust anyone. Family isn’t supportive. Major daddy
issues, so her choices in regards to men haven’t been wise. Leaves lots of
possibilities for potential stalkers. Could be someone who knows her, a
stranger, or some random she took home.”
“Police?”
“Studio doesn’t want them, she doesn’t want them. She doesn’t
want us either but the studio is bringing us in. They prefer discretion,
especially with the Shemax premiere coming up.”
Beck looked back at the tablet. In her picture, Natalie Warner
didn’t look too tough or too wild. A sadness in her eyes made Beck doubt there
were as many random hookups in her life as Remi thought.
“We need to put you in place today. You ready?”
Beck looked around the room and out the giant windows and toward
the L.A. cityscape in the distance. “Yeah, I’m ready.”
His stomach tightened. On most missions he was sent in to kill
people, but on this one he was meant to make certain Natalie Warner wasn’t
killed.
