Chain Reaction by Tara Wyatt is the first book that I have read from this author and it surely won’t be my last after I got a taste of Wyatt’s suspenseful storytelling. Although Chain Reaction is part of the Bodyguard Series, it most definitely can be read as a standalone as the author did a great job introducing previous characters.

Alexa Fairfax is considered Hollywood royalty since she comes from a family of actors. The Fairfax name should be something that Alexa should be proud of but it was a burden that she carries. Alexa’s parents aren’t your typical parents as she never felt their love but only as their pawn in their Hollywood games. So when she overhears something about her father, Alexa is shocked and scared of what she has learned of the criminal activities that he has done. In need of protection, her friend, Zack De Luca volunteers.

Zack De Luca has always carried a torch for Alexa. He wants her but he never felt the need to cross the line that is until he finds himself protecting Alexa from danger. As Alexa and Zack spend more time together, she informs Zack that she has always loved him too. So what happens when danger threatens to tear them apart? Will Zack be able to protect Alexa in time? Or will Alexa find herself facing the consequences of turning her back on her dad?

Chain Reaction is a sexy, fast romance love story that was layered with action, friendship, trust, and passion. Wyatt did an amazing job integrating a bit of drama as she slowly showcased a passionate love story in the backdrops. So if you are looking for a sexy romantic tale with a protective bodyguard then this book might be for you.

Ahhhhh!!!!! Lisa Renee Jones never ceases to amaze me as she continues to knock out another amazing seductive romantic suspense in the second installment to the Dirty Money Series. In Damage Control, Lisa continues to lead her readers down the proverbial rabbit hole of suspense, mystery, chicanery,and passion. With her mastery and virtuosity of words, Jones will define the hard rules of trust, duplicity, and love as she takes reign of the meaning of damage control.

If you didn’t read Hard Rules, then I am here to inform you that you can’t read Damage Control as this book continues where it last left off with Shane and Emily. And what a sexy, intricate, and heart-stopping journey it is. As secrets are slowly unraveled and the players are known, all there is left is figure out what moves will be made. And did I mention that Lisa Renee Jones turns up the heat. Yes, Shane and Emily’s relationship gets scorching hot.

I know that I haven’t revealed much as to what happens in the story and that is because this book is layered with so much intrigue, raw emotions, mystery and suspense that readers must see how everything unfolds with Shane and Emily. As secrets are revealed, danger is imminent and will either of them come out alive?

Damage Control was everything you could have wanted and expected from Lisa Renee Jones as she didn't hold anything back. This book was just as riveting, intense, and sexy as the first book. I loved how Lisa Renee Jones slowly dissected every facets of truth, lies, secrets, and chicanery in her seductive manner. She engages readers. Well scratch that. She entices readers to beg for more. More truth. More suspense. More danger. And more of Shane and Emily. So are you ready to get lost in this wickedly intense story whereDamage Control is a necessity?

Smart. Brilliant. Chilling. Unforgettable. Heart-pounding. Intoxicating. These are a few words to describe this nail-biting suspense thriller that K.A. Tucker has masterfully written. He Will Be My Ruin is unlike any K.A. Tucker book that I have read. I applaud Ms. Tucker for taking a chance on this uncharted genre that we would not normally expect from her. I have to warn readers that this book is not a romance story. So if you expect hearts, flowers, and a knight in shining armor then I'm sorry to disappoint you because this book does not have that at all. Again, this is not a love story. But if you are looking for a story that will leave you breathless, stunned, and wickedly mesmerized and intoxicated then He Will Be My Ruin is the book for you.

K.A. Tucker will always be an author who can flawlessly deliver a book with so much depth, passion, and intensity. She continues to leave readers like myself in awe. Her words, prose, raw characters and storyline continues to captivate and capture any audience. He Will Be My Ruin will hold you hostage as layers upon layers of secrets, truths, fourberie, duplicity, suspense and mystery are beautifully unraveled. I honestly don't want to say more of what to expect in this book but I will just say be prepared to experience a whirlwind of surprises and shocking revelations. When you think you got this book figured out, Ms. Tucker will blow you away with her surprising twists of events leaving you speechless and ruined for any other books.

Did this book ruin me? Absolutely. It held me hostage as I was utterly intoxicated with K.A.'s prowess, brilliance and wicked mastermind as she held readers like myself begging for more. She literally took her readers down the proverbial rabbit hole and had us deliriously intoxicated with the mystery, grit, and suspense. I will just say that this book is a story that must be experienced. Readers must experience the unraveling of the truth from the eyes of Celine as she discovers the truth of her best friend's death. So if you are looking for a book that perfectly weaves suspense, mystery, fourberie, and duplicity then I highly recommend you to read He Will Be My Ruin.

Come Closer by Brenda Rothert is a heartrendingly beautiful poignant romantic suspense that takes readers on the cusp of an unexplainable tangible connection of two strangers in search of truth, redemption, and justice. In this newest sensation, Rothert sophisticatedly guides her readers into a whole new literary world where she beautifully blends romance with a touch of mystery and suspense. As she tackles this new direction, she brings forth a new light and style that begs readers to indeed Come Closer and fall in love with her words and emotionally flawed characters.

Daniel Delgado is a physician, who happens to work in a mental hospital. Daniel has decided that working in the institution in the outskirts of rural Montana is his repentance and a way to keep his demons at bay. There in Montana, work and his patients have always been his number one priority. His life has this routine that is until he meets a new patient that stirs something in Daniel.

Allison Cole is a survivor after witnessing the brutal murder of her twin sister. Shocked, scared and traumatized, Allison is admitted into a mental hospital in order to help her cope with her emotions. Her silence is a curse and blessing. But what happens when her silence forces her to come closer to the truth that she can’t escape that harrowing night? Will Allison find herself staying in the hospital permanently or will Dr. Delgado be the key to unlocking her silence?

The chemistry and connection between Daniel and Allison is indescribable. It is a magnetic pull between doctor and patient. Lines are crossed but when it comes to the matters of the heart, isn’t love worth the risk? Will Daniel find himself risking his job? His heart? His life for a patient that crashed into his life in just a few weeks?

Come Closer is a detailed slow burn romance that ignites all the feels as Rothert delicately tackles these sensitive subject matters of mental health, vulnerability, and raw emotions in a manner that was done in a heartfelt way. There was no judgement and label. Rothert allowed readers to see these people as human beings who deserves every respect, attention, compassion and care. And in the case of her hero, Daniel Delgado, he didn’t see a broken and damaged woman. He saw a woman worth rescuing and saving. So if you are looking for a romance that was a symphony of truth, magnetic chemistry, and suspense then I urge you to read Come Closer. Get lost in Rothert’s prose as she makes you fall in love with a forbidden romance that was sprinkled depth, mystery, steam, and beauty.
