Liam: Branded Brothers, Raen SmithReview from jeannie zelos book reviewsAn author new to me plus the first book in a new series = fun :-) This is a romantic suspense, and certainly has some sensual, steamy heat in it. I love that first sizzle of attraction, and when Liam said “ Charla, I'm going to kiss you now” I melted....He's such a conundrum, he's tattooed, a big, well built man, Bounty Hunter, ex Services and owns a bar – sounds like a real toughie and yet when it comes to Charla he's so gentle, so careful and protective of her. They made a perfect match.Poor Charla, used and abused by her ex, brought up by an alcoholic mum, with a series of weird boyfriends she's learned that the only person she can rely on is herself. She's slow to trust and yet something about Liam draws her in. She's charged with giving him a letter after the patient she's been living with dies. And it brings along some big changes, some adventure and mysteries and some very real dangers to her and Liam.There's so much comes out once that letter opens, and its hard to review without giving too much away. Lets stick at telling that the letter says Liam has brothers, and once he and Charla get to tracking them down more secrets get revealed, leading to more danger for them all. I'm expecting the next books will be about the other brothers? – I hope so, and I hope we get to see more of Charla and Liam.Its a great mix of mystery and suspense, wrapped up in a couple that find romance and have some sexy and sensual encounters! It's priced at 2.45 for 196 pages.Stars: Four.  I enjoyed this, and found the suspense/romance mix was just right for me.ARC supplied via Netgalley
