I quit my job. I walked away from everything I knew. I couldn't lose anyone else. Not again. Working for James Martin wasn't supposed to be complicated or lethal. Too bad someone wanted him dead, and I was the only thing standing in the way.
When eccentric, playboy, CEO James Martin's life is threatened, he decides to hire Alexis Parker, an attractive, feisty, former federal agent, to be his new security consultant and personal bodyguard. As Alex attempts to navigate the minefield of potential suspects, she discovers an underlying conspiracy that has been brewing at Martin Technologies for almost half a decade. Anyone could be involved, making Martin's closest friends, acquaintances, and employees possible suspects.
What starts out as a single death threat quickly morphs into a plot to overtake his entire company. Once the pieces fall into place, things explode, both literally and figuratively. This outwardly simple case is something neither Alex nor Martin ever imagined. It will take all of Alex's training and instincts to track down the criminal mastermind and stop the assassination plot before it's too late, and even that may not be enough.
With over 100,000 copies already downloaded, take the plunge and follow the flawed protagonist on her journey to redemption.

Likely Suspects Alexis Parker Book 1 edition by GK Parks Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks Reviews
This is one book I must encourage you to read. Alexis takes on the job of security consultant/bodyguard to a rich guy who is such a smart aleck you would like to slap the smirk off his face. While I'm not quite finished, (I've two more chapters), it's been a good read. I haven't wanted to put it down. I do reluctantly because I have certain things that must be done. It doesn't matter whether I've finished the book or not. Anyone who has read my reviews know I NEVER give away the ending. But this one......you gotta read.
Good action, good descriptive writing, good banter/dialogue; but not really a mystery. No twists or turns as advertised. Pace of book was pretty good until about 3/4 done. It became too long and writer felt need to resolve "mystery" at end of book. I did like Alexis character for her strength, fighting abilities and loyalty; however, she is not the sharpest tack on bulletin board. I would have liked more "brain power" to go with the fire power.
There is nothing to turn my engine faster than reading a great mystery or thriller. I love real characters, realistic plots and trouble to get in and back out. In Like Suspects, the author is a writer’s writer. The whole of the book is soundly written, and the characters, for the most part, are likeable, the story was spoiled right off with a corny test of loyalty to get the job. I know people love this type of stuff so I can’t be all that put off, but it did jar me into reading the book without the seriousness I like to carry into the pages. When things start off or become strangely corny I have a hard time getting into the rest of the book. That’s not to say I didn’t finish this one because I did. I came away, however, wishing the author took the story with just a bit more seriousness. No one blows up a building and chances multiple deaths just to get a job. I know lots of bad guys, cops and law enforcement jockeys and so on and none know of anyone ever doing such a reckless thing. It’s the kind of stuff you see in B movies and grant you B movies make money and have been doing so for years. It’s like apples and oranges – some like one or the other but not both. This beginning was way over the top. As I maneuvered through the book, I enjoyed the writing and eventually the characters. Alexis Parker is one of those chicks you either love or hate. You can see her wearing bullet-belts around each shoulder and taking one twenty bad guys while being cornered in a dead-end alley. Of course, she’d beat them all up and come out alive, and that’s what Alexis Parker is. As defined, she might even come from the alley without a scratch, and I guess that’s the problem I have with this type of character. While they are fun in a fantasy world, they’re not real. The story, however, wants us to want Alexis to be real and accept all she does as part of the job – part of life. You half expect her to take three in the chest and still get up, protect the client, get the bad guys and live through the whole mess. Bottom line – I like some and some I didn’t like some just as people do with apples and oranges.
Although the heroine, as she is portrayed, has an unlikely personality for a 'trained federal agent', I still found the book to be entertaining, just not very believable. That being said, I will still read the ensuing books, because the relationship between her & the guy she's guarding has yet to be developed. You can assume that more is yet to come. And for sure, this book was an easy read-good for those days when mindless reading is a necessity.
It's just okay, does have some bad language but I didn't think it was over the top with it. No sex.
It did not really keep my interest very well, and a few things I felt was just plain stupid, like she is suppose to be this bad ass chic he hired but after a gun fight and him and her getting hurt, she throws up when asked to go back to the scene, then has a screaming night mare like a sissy.
Some parts were good, but not a big mystery. I liked the love connection the best.
Happy reading Ya'll.......
G. K. Parks is a new author to me so Likely Suspects was a 'test' book . Plot development was a bit slow at first, but finally built more rapidly as details fell into place. I did not find this to be a typical book in the genre. More characters were involved than expected and figuring out who was the antagonist seemed easy, then there would be a red herring thrown in. Character development was consistent and as important as the plot which I enjoy. Next, I'm going to read the three prequels. It might be a good idea to read these first. I plan to read the entire series and am very happy that the series is a long one.
This book was riveting. I read it in two days. It was hard to put down. The attention to detail was extensive. After resigning from her job as an investigation at a company, Alexis interviews for a position as security consultant for billionaire, James Martin. Martians life has been threatened. Alexis is hired to find out who is behind the threats.
A bomb explodes, people get shot at, and lots more excitement. You must read this for yourself to enjoy the action.
I would have liked more interaction between Suzanne, Martins personal assistant, and Alexis. Suzanne's part in the story needs to be fleshed out.
I would recommend this to a friend to read.
