This is one of those introductions to a series that leaves you wishing you didn’t have to wait for more, because it was like a teaser to get us all intrigued by the mysterious life of sexy Roman Smith…well, it worked!!Everly has been Roman’s one and only customer at his book store (really a front for his work as an assassin), making his spare time bearable by just being there, like clockwork, to share the hour she always gives him.  He was adorable the way he looked forward to seeing her with every fiber of his being, like she was his reason for everything in those blissful minutes they shared. Problem was, Everly only knew the Roman he wanted her to know-the sweet, quiet book shop owner who never failed to have her next order of romance novels ready and waiting. She didn’t know about the cold-blooded man of violence that he was under the surface, and he wanted to keep it that way.  Until one day that all started to unravel.Everly’s introduction into Roman’s world really shook up things for her and kind of forced them to get a grip on the underlying chemistry between them.  It was an understated lust but still very sexy, and readers get plenty of steam to leave them panting for more!! With Roman’s newly visible feelings for her putting both of them in a perilous situation, we’re left with the feeling that they are quite literally jumping off a cliff together into uncertainty.  With followup The Deception I am very much looking forward to seeing what Roman’s decision on how to handle things will mean for their future, and I can’t wait for Everly’s reaction when she finds out just what exactly he’s been hiding!!
