Publisher Description
I own my own dance studio, have a thriving competitive ballroom dance career, and am married to a successful financier. Life should be good, but I also have a stalker, and I’m divorcing my cold, ruthless husband. The day I walk out of my Bel Air mansion, leaving only divorce papers behind, my stalker ups his game.
With no resources, thanks to an iron-clad prenup, I have no one to turn to but an aloof and irreverent friend of a friend. Cannon dresses like he shops in a dirty laundry pile. He acts like he doesn’t have time for my frivolous career. And he looks at me like he can’t believe someone hasn’t knocked me off my high horse already.
But it’s not long before I realize Cannon isn’t all he seems. Just like he sees right through my polish to the insecure, naive girl inside, I see him. He’s intense, he’s restrained, and he has something to hide. Those secrets might not just end what’s growing between us…they might get us killed.
Customer Reviews
A book to keep you reading!
Penni had finally decided that she was leaving her husband to make a new life! But what a mess that created. Cannon was watching from a distance, but he didn’t know all the story. Penni was a friend of his best friends wife and so he knew a little. But when he was forced to step in to help her, everything* changed .
No spoilers here as there as so many twist and turns but it keeps you reading. Can’t wait for the next one!
I received an arc for an honest review, all views are my own
Expect a cliffhanger ending - Two part story
This is part one of a duet... therefore expect a cliffhanger ending, as there is more excitement to come, and you will need to get the second book to reach the ending.
This book is full of action and intrigue from the very beginning. I didn't realise that there was a previous duet which covers the story of other characters in the book. You don't need to have read this... but I will be going back to read it now!
Penelope is being stalked and the threats are escalating but she hasn’t told her friends or family. She is also getting divorced, and doesn't want to share how her life just isn't turning out how she planned.
However, her dance studio is targeted and she needs to get her friends get involved as her shoddy PI is just not cutting it. They persuade her to hire Cannon as a bodyguard, but there is so much more to it than that... on every level.
Cliffhanger Ending
From the very first sentence this book hooked me and drew me in - a high voltage story!
Penelope is being stalked and the threats are escalating but she hasn’t told anyone other than the bargain basement PI she hired. When her dance studio is targeted her friends get involved and they persuade her to hire Cannon as a bodyguard, not knowing that he is playing a double game…..
This is not a book I would normally read as I hate not reaching a HEA ending. Readers will have to purchase the 2nd book in order to complete the story. However I know a lot of authors do write this serialisation type of books and have to assume there are readers who enjoy this and so I have reviewed for them.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book from the author. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
