About CITY UNDER SIEGE
London is a city in flames. Tensions are high and a critical situation is about to go from bad to worse. The Prime Minister wants to send a message, and the SAS will be the ones to deliver it.
Emotional detachment is my specialty. I’m ruthless and cut throat, but there is nobody better.
Sarah Tatem is an innocent. Caught up in a world in which she doesn’t belong, and trying desperately to do the right thing. My job is to keep her safe long enough to get what’s needed, and bring an end to this siege of terror.
But something has changed. I’ve learned that the only thing stronger than loyalty is love, and now she’s gone.
My name is Lieutenant Tom Harper, and I’m about to unleash hell.

Read an excerpt from CITY UNDER SIEGE
I was practically kneeling in front of the screen as I tried to understand what I was seeing. Men were shouting at one another, though their words were indecipherable.The person filming darted out from behind a shipping container to take more shots. Everything was happening so fast, the camera moving wildly with the person it was attached to. Finally, I realised it was a body cam by the way it was flailing and jerking all over the place. I had no idea what shipyard they were in, but it made sense that the assault would be there rather than a boat. They would have wanted to take the terrorists after the handover happened, just to be sure.
A soldier came into shot across the way, crouched behind another container, and I guessed he was one of ours. Covered from head to toe, it was impossible to know who it was, but I held my breath anyway. The camera at least became steady as the gunfire slowly ebbed, though focused now on the last of the targets. In the periphery of the screen, the kneeling soldier leant further forward to take a shot when he was yanked sharply backwards in a move that literally saved his life. As the last shot rang out, sounding a death knell to the terrorists who’d been responsible for taking so many innocent civilian lives, the rest of the team seemed to realise what I already knew. The rescuer, the guardian angel who’d ripped his teammate away from the path of certain death, had exposed himself to make the ultimate sacrifice, saving his friend’s life at the expense of his own. Soldiers darted in front of the camera again, and a few more indistinguishable voices called out before the silence. The excruciating, insufferable, tormenting silence, broken only by the clear voice that cut through the darkness like a scythe, ripping a hole through my heart as it did.
“Man down.”
Claire's Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This past weekend I was luck enought to go to RARE18 in London and meet the wonder RJ Prescott and pick up a signed copy of this amazing book! She was hands down one of the sweetest and most loveliest authors that I have had the pleassure in meeting.
Wow, how do I put this review into words! They always say that you shouldn't judge a book by its cover, but I have to admit that I did. This cover caught my eye and I loved it so much that I read the blurb and knew I had to get my hands on this, and I am glad to say that I wasn't disappointed.
This is the story of Sarah, whose Father and Brother are both killed in a bad accident, and so she has to leave her happy little life behind to go and take over the family's shipping business, with the help of her Aunt. However, things aren't as straightforward as Sarah things they are and she finds herself in the middle of a terrifying situation. That's how she meets Lieutenant Tom Harper, and sparks fly!
This book is the first RJ Prescott book I have read and I am actually quite ashamed to say that and will definitely be jumping back to read her previous work. This book was so well written that I could imagine being in the story and seeing it all play out in front of my eyes. The story itself, despite the love story angle, is quite scary, to think that things like this could and more possibly do happen is terrifying. I haven't ever read a book quite like this one before.
I cannot recommend this book enough! It needs to be devoured.
