synopsis

 

 

A Hollywood starlet fearlessly prepares for danger but finds herself unprepared for the perils of love.

On the big screen Sheridan Bennett’s got the face of an angel and the body of a…well, isn’t that what’s expected of an award-winning actress? But there’s something about her Clayton Kincaid can’t quite figure. The former Ranger is transitioning from local police detective to private investigator, and Sheridan Bennett is one case he’d like to solve.

Sheridan knows her luck has taken a turn for the worse when her criminal father appears in the middle of a police fundraiser. Not only that, the one man capable of uncovering her secrets witnesses her distress. Her idyllic life falls apart as her father’s demands for money escalate and a stalker begins a menacing game.

Determined to keep Sheridan safe, Clayton works his way into her life and her heart. But when Sheridan learns Clayton has secrets of his own, she decides to face the fight alone. Undeterred by Sheridan’s belief in his deception, Clayton uses all his resources when the path of her notorious father and her stalker converge.

Together they must learn that the spotlight shines brightest when it’s shared, and that not all love is an act.

I received this book from the author for an honest review.

Oh man was I ready to get to know detective hottie AKA Claton and I totally expected him to be the hot and cold person in this relationship but boy was I wrong.  That man was in it from the start!!  Sheridan is a MESS!!  That girl has been through more in her life than most people and is living to tell about it.  Granted she is living a shallow existence out of fear but she thinks is strength until old Aquaman  *Snickers* forces his way into Slims life.

Clayton is your typical brooding alpha but he sees our star and is instantly drawn.  Sheridan is a famous actress and has scened with many celebrities but no one gives her the butterflies like Clayton.  When she needs help he is there to offer his strength annnnd a bit more.  Try has hard as Sheridan liked he broke down every single one of her walls and swam his way past her defenses….again the Aquaman references because they cracked me up in the book.

There is A LOT happening in this book…I mean a lot!!  Lots of side plots and bad guys, twists, turns,  the Russian Mafia and even some human trafficking L but the story is solid.  You think you might have this figured out and then we get a whole new level of “Oh crap” thrown at us.

I gotta tell ya I wanted to smack Sheridan a time or two but I think her sisters are a great touch stone for her.  I also loved seeing Rachel and Clayton bantering back and forth in the story.  But I am DYING…like for real death is imminent if I don’t know about Erik annnnnd Ryan.  Serious the need for these men to find an HEA is super strong!!!!
