If you want to find out her backstory-how she reconnected with Sean Meyer after their time in the Army-this is where to look. If you're more interested in Charlie's career as a close-protection operative, then I'd recommend you begin with either Book #3, HARD KNOCKS, when she's undergoing bodyguard training at a school in Germany. Or when her new job starts with a bang in Book #4, FIRST DROP, when she and her teenage charge find themselves on the run in Florida. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eSharp, Zoe:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Zoe ​Sharp opted out of mainstream education at the age of 12 and wrote her first novel at 15.
