Trigger warning: Attempted rape

I don’t do books about rape well at all. Usually I shut those books and never look back. With this book I don’t know why but I kept reading. Granted she wasn’t actually raped but it was a close call so if this is a trigger for you this book might not be the best for you. Then this woman runs through a he forest shoeless and stumbles on this private security firm. Enter Gage who tackles her and for some reason I don’t understand she’s instantly drawn to this man. I man who (after she was nearly raped) tackles her from behind, pins her down and straddles her. Yes she fights back and yes he eventually takes care of her but her initially response to him is seriously messed up in my opinion. Not to mention Gage himself who only sees women as objects to have a one night stand with. I didn’t care for his character at all. I didn’t like the deputy sheriff or the brother Phoenix. Then there the step mom who comes off creepy to me. Weird vibes. Probably the last book in the series I’ll be reading

Leaves you suspended

Gage is alpha extreme with a side of military crazy and dealing with the anniversary of his fathers death when he finds Niki who has been attacked. With the help of his brothers will he be able to keep her safe or will Niki have enough of his alpha attitude and set him straight.

This book ends on kind of a cliffhanger but not for our characters of Gage and Niki it sets up for the rest of the series.

Listen. I love romantic suspense. Even enjoy a dark romance from time to time. Love an overbearing alpha-male, a brother's security firm, all that jazz. In theory, this should have ticked all of my boxes.

No. This was all just a lot of big yikes on even bigger bikes. Oooof. Read the content warnings given by other reviewers because I feel like it needs to be said one more time...YIKES.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book provided to me through Netgalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Thank you to the author and the publisher for giving me the opportunity to read this book and I'm sorry for the delay in my reading/reviewing; it's been a bit of a year!

Whoa

I mean this storyline just took a turn I cannot wait to read the 2nd novel. Action packed novel for sure with a hint of romance.

Wow! This was an awesome story! Niki Avery gets assaulted. She’s trying to find herself out of the woods and ends up on the Steele brothers property. The brothers protect those who are needing help in any way and of course jump in to help Niki. The ending of who did it surprised me. This story was well written. Drama, romance, suspense. Love the story and the characters. I can’t wait to read more!
