What’s
more dangerous—a killer attraction that breaks all the rules, or the true
killer who’s closing in?
Security consultant Ronan Thorne might be sex on a stick, but that doesn’t mean
I should want him. After all, I’m Brandy Bradshaw, the Girl with the Worst Luck
with Men. As for that one kiss we shared? That was nothing but a drunken
mistake between friends. I know perfectly well that Ronan’s not a relationship
guy. He’s got dark edges and dangerous secrets and so many scars.
But when I find my landlord dead in my living room, shot with a single bullet
to the head, Ronan’s the man I cling to. I feel safe in his arms, and he has
the skills to figure out what’s happening.
Except what he learns is that a case of mistaken identity has made me the next
target.
Now we’re on the run together, but I’m not prepared for the heat that flares
between us, or the tantalizing things he does to my body when we give in to
temptation. He soothes my fear by showing me a different type of danger,
sensuous and wild. It’s miraculous and wonderful, but terrifying, too. Because
as soon as we catch the killer, I’m afraid Ronan will leave. And when he does,
I know my heart will shatter.

Stark comes a sexy and suspenseful romance between a woman in jeopardy and the
reluctant hero determined to save the girl but not lose his heart.

– ☆☆☆☆
This is the fourth book in the series, but rather than concentrating on Devlin
and Ellie, we are instead given the chance to see whether the chemistry between
Ronan and Brandy has a chance. I would suggest you read the earlier trio of
novels, but I think you could enjoy this story as a standalone and go back
afterwards.
I really enjoyed this fast-paced, exciting mystery interlaced with a sizzling
romance between two very unlikely companions. Brandy is an up and coming bag
designer, who is Ellie's best friend. She is shy, and whilst she thinks Ronan
is the most handsome man in the world, she considers herself very average, and
so her crush will remain just that. Ronan works with Devlin, and his life is
all about danger, and not making any commitments, in case he causes harm to
someone he loves. In fact, love is utterly unacceptable in his life.
Obviously we know that somehow it will work out, but the unexpected
complication of a murder with a twist and the ensuing drama makes this a really
engaging read on a number of levels. I have to say it was a lot less stressful
than Ellie and Devlin's story, but very entertaining, with a deliciously
satisfying ending.

M/F Romance
Ronan and Brandy are somewhat of an odd pair. They have this insane attraction,
and both let it slip at their friend's wedding. But when Brandy finds herself
in a situation that puts her life in danger, Ronan is not going to let his own
personal agenda stop him from protecting her.
Brandy is a vivacious woman who has had bad luck in love. However, she is
having fantastic luck in her business life. When Brandy finds herself the
center of a murder investigation, she will have to rely on her friends to help
her figure out who is killing in her name.
Ronan has lived his adult life seeking revenge. When he's just about to avenge
his first love, he finds that he can't leave Brandy alone to face a murderer
who's out for their own revenge. He has to make sure the love in his life, even
if he won't admit it, will be safe. He owes her this, in his mind.
Ronan and Brandy will have to figure out if their past, present, and future can
meld or if they are doomed to circle around each other for the rest of their
lives. Logic and the heart sometimes don't make sense and in order to make
sense of everything that's happening, the past will come to roost, the present
will mesh their hearts, and their future is up for grabs.
This is a fast-paced story, and you will read faster and faster just to see how
it all pans out. It's a great story and it was fun seeing the other characters
from the previous books too. However, I would say that you don't necessarily
have to read them in order to know what is happening in this book. But you'd be
missing out if you didn't read the previous books.
