Wrecked Guard by Renn Wells

adventurous challenging emotional slow-paced

3.0

This read was middle of the road for me. I enjoyed the beginning and the end. The middle dragged a bit for me. What kept me going is to see if I was right on who the stalker was and I will say the ending and reveal was very good. It was action packed, dramatic, suspenseful and there was no mercy given. I like that in my romantic suspense books. I did like the characters, I enjoyed the pranks and I would’ve liked to maybe see some more of that and a little more set up with Tessa and Julian at the beginning before diving into the forced proximity. The past is given to us through flashbacks but I think the flow of the story would’ve been better to start with that instead of intermixing it with the present, IMO of course. I also liked the added stress of Tessa’s mom and her condition, that was heartbreaking and I loved the follow-up of  what she had left with her. But Tess mentions the anxiety of Julian wanting her if her mom’s future is her future but there was no other mention or discussion between them about it. Overall very decent romantic suspense book. I think a lot of people would enjoy this read and again, loved the action at the end.
