About this listen

A Wall Street Journal bestseller.

Love is the best defense in New York Times bestselling author Susan Stoker’s explosive Mountain Mercenaries novel.

Gorgeous women don’t just stumble onto Ronan Cross’s remote property. But this one - vulnerable, victimized, and needing the kind of help only Ronan can offer - tells a story that makes his blood boil almost as hot as his need to protect her.

Since her father’s death, Chloe Harris has become a prisoner. Her own brother, a flesh peddler and low-level player in the Denver Mafia, is forcing her to sell her body for an endgame Chloe never saw coming: control over a vast fortune. Her only way out is to run - straight into the arms of the one hard-bodied man she can trust.

Defending Chloe could rain punishment down on the Mountain Mercenaries. Her brother has Mob connections and the local police in his pocket. But Ronan still has an edge - the unshakable loyalty of his deadly teammates. As well as an unquenchable thirst for retribution...and Chloe.

Defending Chloe

Ronan was minding his own business when Chloe was spotted walking on his property many miles from the nearest town. He knew something was up when he spotted the bruises on her skin. But he couldn't do anything at that time. After she was gone he couldn't get her out of his mind. When he and friends went to find out if she was being abused and doing things against her will. He and his fellow Mountain Mercenaries helped women and children to escape the men who would harm them. When he finds out that her brother was a member of a local mob they had to be careful not to start a turf war. Then came the chance to get her away from her brother all bets are off. Will the mob bosses allow this with no war? Or is there more to the plot her brother has in using and abusing women without the mob's approval? I enjoyed the narration, it kept me listening to the very end.

Stoker is good for a light read.

I enjoyed this story, much more because of the narrator who maintained if not completely accurate accents, at least consistent. Good inflections.

As for the author, I always have a bit of a hard time recommending Stoker's books because--as much as I enjoy them for snack-type books--they are hard to totally relax with since she has holes. She repeats things in the same book many times, and then says things from a previous book but incorrectly so you're all "NO! You said ____ not ___ and how you've retold it in this book changes the entire last book. ARG".

I think she just needs a good editor. For ALL of her stories.

That said, I really like the stories. I just have to remind myself to take them as good drama, good ideas, not the greatest execution, and when writing problems occur I simply pretend it didn't' happen--like one does for a bad episode of a favourite show. lol

Interesting read

This was an exciting story about a girl who has an abusive brother controlling her to get her in her money. Money she doesn’t know about. It is interesting the way everything turns out. Going to read more by this author. Narration was perfect in bringing the story to life. I mostly listened while reading, as Is my preferred method of enjoying the books. It really is nice to be able to switch reading and listening if I need to get supper started. Enjoy. HEA, no cheating, no cliffhanger just a teaser for the next book. A really good story.

Chloe and Rafe’s stories

What a fabulous story and characters!! I love the mountain mercenaries! The reason for existing is something so badly needed in our world. Trafficking of women and children is a worldwide horror and they are treated as slaves. So glad Susan Stoker wrote this story. Chloe and Rafe will not be forgotten!!!

Great Book

Wow Defending Chloe is book two in the Mountain Mercenaries series and for me another hit out of the park kind of story. Susan Stoker has an amazing writing ability she just has a way with her storytelling. Stella Bloom has done another great job of narrating this story she just brings the characters to life for me, she just knows how to make the story very interesting and entertaining. In my opinion this is a great story that has suspense, family drama, lies, the mafia and plenty of passion. I absolutely recommend this great book.

Love this book

Oh my goodness, Ronan and Chloe’s story had me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. I have to admit my dark side came out near the end and I may have laughed and cheered a little when a certain character gets what’s coming to them.
Action packed, high energy, must keep reading even if you have to ship lunch story. I am loving this series.
