Publisher Description
He’s an adrenaline junkie who doesn’t know when to quit. She’s an FBI agent who does everything by the book. Are they destined for disaster…or love?
The Black Knights are back and better than ever!
Britt Rollins navigates a perilous world of covert missions and hidden truths. He loves the intrigue, adventure, and adrenaline that comes with a life lived in the shadows. But when his ex-con brother arrives on his doorstep with a smart, sexy fed hot on his heels, Britt’s murky world is in danger of being dragged into the light.
Julia O’Toole is good at two things: being a crackerjack FBI agent and dreaming about the brooding, blue-eyed hottie she met on a previous case. However, when the hunt for a runaway felon leads her to Black Knights Inc, she begins to suspect the reality of Britt Rollins is far more dangerous than any of her late-night fantasies.
Finding a way to clear his brother’s name is tough enough. But throw in staying one step ahead of Julia, and it’s safe to say Britt is facing his toughest challenge yet. Giving in to his desire for her feels inevitable. But keeping his brother alive is not—especially when he discovers the true danger to them both might be Julia herself…

4.5stars-through provoking, twisted, edgy
4.5stars-BLACK MOON RISING is the fourth instalment in Julie Ann Walker’s contemporary, adult BLACK KNIGHT INC: RELOADED erotic , romantic suspense series, a spin off from the author’s BLACK KNIGHT INC, focusing on an elite group of former military personnel, headquartered and fronted by a custom motorcycle shop in Chicago known as Black Knight Inc. This is former US Army Ranger turned motorcycle mechanic Sargent Britt Rollins, and FBI Agent Julia O’Toole’s story line. BLACK MOON RISING can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.
NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive reads.
Told from several omniscient third person perspectives including Britt and Julia, BLACK MOON RISING follows Agent Julia O’Toole as she searches for Britt’s brother Knox, a suspect in the murder of another paid informant but all is not as it appears to be, as the agents at Black Knight Inc, provided protection and shelter for a man who may or may not be innocent of a crime. Someone is not whom they claim to be, and Britt begins to suspect a mole on the inside of the FBI. On the run, Britt finds himself facing down the woman with whom he will fall in love, a woman who is willing to listen when no one else will.
Meanwhile, chopper pilot and Black Knight Inc Agent Hewitt Birch finds himself guardian and protector of Cooper’s sister Sabrina Greenlee, a young woman who has suffered in order to protect her brother.
The relationship between Britt and Julia is one of mutual attraction but Britt doesn’t do relationships, believing his is not worthy of love . Britt’s need for Julia finds our hero walking away fearing a life together would end in tragedy, a life together that had barely begun. The $ex scenes are provocative and seductive without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

The fast paced premise is thought provoking, twisted and edgy; the romance is passionate ; the characters are determined, charismatic and compelling.
