Veena’s review of Without Warning (Vigilance,Book 2) by Desiree Holt
Romantic Suspense published by Lyrical Liaison 20 Mar 18
Blake Morgan has reached the pinnacle of success as a writer, only to find himself a character in someone else’s horrible fantasy. He finally takes the threat seriously and hires a bodyguard, but he discovers that she’s the one girl from high school whom he’s never forgotten. Has fate given him a second chance?
Things heat up pretty rapidly both on the sexual front as well as the stalker front. Poor Blake, no matter how deeply he searches his memory, he can’t come up with a single thing from his past that could have created this massive hate in anyone. In the meantime, things are going well on the Samantha front as well as the various media events, despite the stalker’s attempts to derail them. Things are pretty intense, what with adrenaline fueling Blake and Samantha as they try to stay one step ahead of the stalker while soothing themselves together in bed.
What I really enjoyed in this story is the view into the stalker’s mind as he chortles with glee at outwitting Blake and the Vigilance team and then the teeth gnashing when the tables are turned on him. This is a fast-paced thriller which will sweep you into the story and keep you engaged throughout.
Ms. Holt has rapidly become a favorite with her romantic suspense tales. I look forward to reading more from her.
Grade: B
Summary:
When you don’t know how the story will end . . .
After years of hard work honing his craft, Blake Morgan is now an international bestselling author. But one thing he never imagined was that his fictional world would become all too real. When a stalker turns Blake’s latest book tour into a treacherous and nearly deadly trap, it’s time for Blake to hire protection. But the body assigned to keep an eye on him is someone he never wants out of his sight . . .
As a bodyguard for Vigilance, the private security agency in Blake’s hometown of Arrowhead Bay, Samantha Quenel has found the perfect outlet for her military experience. But her latest client is also a former high school flame, which might explain her willingness to protect Blake at all costs—even if that means staying in the same room with him, on the same bed, under the same torrid sheets . . .
