The NCIS series is a ten-book military romance sequence by Zoe Dawson. Starting with Commanding Sia (2020), each book pairs an NCIS agent or military operative with a woman caught up in danger. The series ran through Safeguarding Kelly (2023).
The book titles follow a pattern: each one starts with an action verb paired with a woman’s name. Commanding Sia, Guarding Sky, Guiding Kinley, Saving Amber, and so on through the full ten entries. This naming convention gives readers a clear sense of the formula. Each book features a new couple with a new threat.
Dawson published six of the ten books in 2020 alone, making it a rapid-fire series launch. The pace slowed after that, with three books in 2021 and a final entry in 2023. Readers who enjoy military romantic suspense with protective hero storylines will find plenty of material here.
