Review<\/b><\/h4>\n

4.5 thrilling and romantic stars!<\/b><\/p>\n

Fast-paced, action-packed mystery\/suspense story that is sexy, romantic and lots of fun, and wow, did it get my heart pumping! This series is a spin off to the Sin Brothers<\/i><\/a> books, and is shaping up to be just as intense as the originals, and I\u2019m loving the ride!<\/p>\n

Heath Jones is one of a trio of \u2018blood brothers\u2019 who were genetically modified by a maniacal scientist for the purposes of creating \u2018super soldiers\u2019. Raised in a group home, the boys were \u2018studied\u2019 and tormented, but became closer than family and swore their lives to protect each other. They escaped as teenagers and have put their skills to use by creating an investigative agency \u2013 finding the lost and searching for the answers to their pasts all while remaining on the run and in hiding from the villainous scientist and her partner, a sheriff crazed with revenge.<\/p>\n

Anya is a professor of criminal psychology, but her profession hits too close to home when she finds herself the target of a serial killer. When her FBI agent sister is taken and murdered by the Copper Killer, it sparks her into forcing some action, and she provokes the killer on national television, placing herself as bait to draw him out and dragging Heath into the picture.<\/p>\n

By declaring them a couple to the world, Anya forces herself and Heath into a fake relationship, but also puts Heath and his brothers out into the open. And not only that, she makes herself a target for more than just the killer, with bad guys from the brothers\u2019 past also hunting to bring the boys in, and Anya may be their key. It\u2019s all happening, and it\u2019s fantastically woven together as Heath and his brothers work to protect Anya, hunt for the killer and evade their enemies\u2026 all the while an amazing romance is unfolding.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile I might not give you the full story, I\u2019ll never lie to you. so here it is. I want you.\u201d
\nHer eyebrows rose toward her hairline. Her breath quickened.
\n\u201cAnd I think you want me.\u201d
\nNow her chin lowered. She drew in air and slowly let it out. Her nipples hardened until he could see them beneath her shit. Clearly.
\n\u201cI thought we should get that truth out of the way and decide what to do about it.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Heath and Anya\u2019s attraction is evident from the very beginning, and neither of them hide it. They acknowledge it, they talk about it, and when the sexual tension all becomes too much, they act on it. And hot damn! Rebecca Zanetti writes wonderfully steamy romance and the chemistry between Anya and Heath is palpable, and the sexy time is absolutely steamy! And best of all, they are open about what they want, and about what they are capable of, and I loved how functional they are!<\/p>\n

\u201cLast night was not fake. You and me, it was real.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Every day they fall harder and harder for each other, and they both know that it\u2019s happening, but Heath is determined to protect Anya by keeping his secrets, while she is determined to get him to completely open up to her. There are things that they need to sort through and work at, but there\u2019s no stupid behaviour and game playing, and it works really well with the intensity of their situation as danger closes in from all angles.<\/p>\n

\u201cI promise I\u2019ll protect you with everything I have and everything I am. No matter what, I\u2019m yours.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It\u2019s such an exciting ride and I was madly flipping pages with a growing sense of anticipation as I was waiting for something big to happen. The story builds wonderfully to a thrilling climax that is scary, exciting, and full of surprises. The killer makes his move, the boys mobilise, the Grey brothers are on board to help, and Anya proves what a badass she is. And my heart was pounding as it all played out.<\/p>\n

Adding to the awesome is the dynamics between the Jones brothers. These boys would do absolutely anything for each other, and that shows over and over again. They tease and joke, which is great fun, and their protectiveness of each other is gorgeous to see. I loved catching up with Ryker and Zara from the first book, and really enjoyed the tie in with the Grey brothers from the Sin Brothers<\/i> series.<\/p>\n

I loved this book. It\u2019s a wonderfully intense romantic suspense, and a great addition to the Blood Brothers<\/i> series, while adding more depth to the world of the Sin Brothers<\/i> series. It\u2019s everything that I love about Rebecca Zanetti\u2019s writing \u2013 exciting, engaging, intriguing and passionately romantic. I know I\u2019m always in for a great ride when I pick up one of her books, and this one was no exception. And with hints dropped for Denver\u2019s story, I can\u2019t wait to get my hands on the next book.<\/p>\n

Fantastic \u2013 4.5 stars.<\/p>\n
