Blurb: She’s damaged…
Brooke Sullivan’s carefully ordered existence is spiraling out of control. Two years ago, she was violently abducted by a terrorist group and nearly killed. She’s worked hard to get her life back on track–moving to a new house, changing careers, going on a couple of dates. When she witnesses a murder, she’s plunged into a new nightmare. And as the past threatens to repeat itself, she’s not sure she’ll survive this time.
He’s ruthless…
Cade “Saint” Rodgers never forgot the beautiful girl he talked to at the wedding of his commanding officer. Now she’s in trouble, and he’s the one tasked with protecting her. Brooke is terrified of men like him–a Black Ops soldier for whom violence is a way of life–which makes falling for her a terrible idea. But that won’t stop Cade from using every sensual trick he’s got to make her believe anything is possible if only she wants it badly enough.
Together, they’re combustible…
As danger draws closer, it’ll take all of Cade’s strength–and all of Brooke’s determination–to learn how to let go of the past and trust each other. But it might not be enough. To keep her safe, he may have to let her go forever…
Thoughts: This was my first book by Lynn Raye Harris, and all in all it was a pretty good romantic suspense. The most enjoyable part for me was the funny texts between these two characters as they take it slow and get to know each other. Those alone had me cracking a laugh or two! Brooke was a bit of a mouse in regards to her character, and I would have liked if she was a bit of a stronger female lead – but we can’t all be alpha females. She held it together when it counted and you had to admire her for that. The romance angle was a bit stronger than the suspense part for me, but no matter your preferred genre it makes for an enjoyable read.
Rating: B
