Author: Katie Reus
Genre: Romance
Blurb: A cold-blooded killer wants her dead.
After her friend is murdered right before her eyes, Taylor uses her wits to escape with just a bullet wound, thankful to be alive. But now the killer isn’t the only one after her—the cops are, too, and Taylor’s not sure she can trust them—or anybody else in her life in California. She decides to turn to her old friend in Vegas, racing there with just the clothes on her back, only to arrive and realize he’s off on his honeymoon. Desperate, she breaks in and crashes.
A former Marine is determined to protect her.
When former Marine Roman MacNeil finds a gorgeous stranger unconscious and bleeding in his friend’s shower, his first thought is to help her . . . until she tries to knock him out with a vodka bottle. Lucky for Taylor, Roman isn’t a man who goes down easily. When he realizes the trouble she’s in, he’s determined to protect her—whatever it takes. As they’re thrust into a deadly situation they discover an attraction they never bargained for. But a determined killer is closing in, and time may be running out.
Thoughts: I absolutely love Katie Reus….the draw between her characters is the heart and soul of her books for me whether she is writing paranormal or suspense and intrigue. Dangerous Surrender is classic Reus, and that draw between Roman and Taylor is definitely there. I particularly enjoyed their dramatic meeting!…LOL Oddly enough, I also enjoyed the mafia angle in this one….honor among thieves and all that….:)
Personally, I found the intrigue aspect a bit predictable and things wrapped up a bit to quickly and neatly for me but then again it makes the stories a quick action filled power read for when you’re in the mood for something not quite so time consuming. Her books are always a good read- you can take that to the bank! – and I look forward to her next book!
