About the book:
Intensity. Skill.
Tenacity. The bodyguards of Elite Guardians Agency have it all.
When Maddy McKay
and Quinn Holcombe don’t show up for Quinn’s birthday party, his friends know
that something is very wrong. Their search turns up little beyond evidence that
Quinn and Maddy have vanished. And it soon becomes apparent that they did not
leave of their own accord.
Maddy awakens in
a cement room with no idea where she is. But it’s not long before she realizes
she’s in the clutches of a madman who exacts revenge through games—hunting games.
His prey of choice? Humans. Now Maddy and Quinn must run for their lives and
outwit their killer when their game begins.
Because if they
don’t win this game . . . they die.
My review:
Heart-pounding
romantic suspense at its best!
This is a
stand-alone story within a series. A number of the characters from the previous
books have support roles in this one though.
The two main
characters, Maddy and Quinn, are so well developed that I connected with both
of them really quickly after starting this book. They each have their own
emotional baggage that keeps rearing its ugly head and getting in the way of
moving on with their lives. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing how they slowly faced
up to it and figured out the steps they needed to take to work through it.
This all takes place
in the midst of being targeted by a madman who wants to kill both of them. The
key though is that he wants to play some games and mess with their heads first.
The plot is crafted so ingeniously that it really kept me guessing. In fact
when the actual mastermind behind all the games is revealed I found that I had
made a number of wrong guesses along the way.
I have read and
loved both of the previous books in this series. This one is no exception. It
is fabulous and I’m highly recommending it! It gets a rating of 5 stars from
me.
Love a good suspense novel.
