Marquita Valentine, you have once again have me addicted with your books!!! When I read my first Marquita Valentine book, I was instantly swept away and hooked with her sweet, charming, and wholesome stories. And ever since then, I was a fan. And so when I learned that Marquita Valentine was going to write a new suspense thriller, I knew I had to get my hands on this book. And let me just say Marquita Valentine did not disappoint me at all. She DELIVERED a full throttle of adventure and sexiness in her new release, Prime Target.
“Only you. No one else could come close. I wouldn’t let them. It’s like wanting a fire to light the sky after you’ve witnessed the sunrise.”
A book store owner in the day and a lethal Russian assassin at night!!! Ummm...yes, I'm sold!!! Marquita Valentine did not have to say anymore because I knew instantly this book is going to be devoured. And let me just say you will not want to put this book down. How could you when Marquita Valentine introduces readers to Roman Smith aka Nikolai Romanov.
Roman Smith is not your ordinary shopkeeper who owns a quaint bookstore in a small town. As a shopkeeper, he hardly has any customers and that is fine by him since his bookstore is just a facade. Well, there is just one customer that he has and he looks forward to her once a week visit to his shop. There is something about Everly that Roman gravitates towards to. Her innocence, beauty, and personality breaks through Roman's hard and strong persona. Whenever he is with her, there is something about her that makes him want to be that guy who can be with her freely and open. But Roman knows that he must keep his distance from her because danger seems to always follow him.
“Ever since I first saw you, I've wanted to taste you. Will you let me?”
So when an unexpected visitor arrives at Roman's shop, he finds himself getting shot by another Russian family avenging the death of his brother, whom Roman killed. When Everly arrives at the shop and sees Roman bleeding, their two worlds begins to collide. Roman is now well aware that there are people who will threaten the life of Everly since it has become known by others that Roman cares deeply for Everly. Soon Roman and Everly embark on a whirlwind adventure in Europe as they have become prime targets of chicanery and fourberie. Can Roman be able to save Everly before it's too late? And how will Everly react to finding out that Roman Smith is Nikolai Romanov, an assassin and son of a prominent Russian mafia family?
Prime Target was just AMAZING!!! It was fast paced, action packed, suspenseful, sexy and had that romance love story to keep hearts racing and entertained. The writing was superb and the characters were phenomenal. I love reading a book where an author can vividly portray scenes that felt like I was watching a movie play before my eyes. I adored the amazing tangible chemistry of Roman and Everly. So if you are looking for a book that delivers romance, suspense and excitement then Prime Target is the book for you. I seriously can't wait for Ben's book. Marquita Valentine you have definitely delivered a book that will hold readers hostage.
