"If she was moving on, he was going to make damn sure she moved on with him. He was through being patient. She didn’t know it yet, but she belonged to him."Tempting Target by Savannah Stuart is a stand-alone romantic suspense-lite story mixed with a little erotica. This was my first book by Savannah Stuart and I was excited to have the opportunity to read and review this title.The heroine, Jade Hadley, mourned the death of her husband for several years. Waiting in the background is her husband’s best friend, security expert David McIntyre. When Jade finally makes the decision to start dating again, David has his chance to finally get the woman he’s secretly been in love with for years. Unfortunately, Jade finds herself the victim of a dangerous stalker and David must keep her safe while making her fall for him…So I admit, I’m a complete sucker for a damsel in distress storyline especially when it’s coupled with a sexy, capable hero. This book had both! The writing was solid and the heat level was steamy. David had some alpha tendencies I could really appreciate!"Hearing his name on her lips did something to him. It was so primal it scared the ____  out of him. He wanted to claim her. Mark her somehow. Make it so that any man knew she was his. And instead of his tongue, he wanted to sink his ____  into her. Wanted to feel her tight sheath clench around him as she raked her fingers down his back."As a big fan of romantic suspense books and a self-proclaimed guilty pleasure junkie, I enjoyed Tempting Target. There wasn't a lot of development in the story, it lacked "meat", but for a quick read with a protective, hot alpha and some steam, this is worth a look. I'd definitely read this author again and recommend this book to readers that enjoy steamy romantic suspense story lines. Overall a 3.5 RATING.Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for a copy of this book in exchange for a honest review.
