Review: Decent Read
Rating: 3 out of 5

This is very much the kind of typical romance that I used to steer clear from. I enjoyed it and I'm invested enough to want to know what happens with the rest of the Grayson brothers, but I don't know if I'd really recommend it and I don't think I'd re-read it at any point. I think the attempts at mystery and suspense in the romance pulled me away from the actual romance. Now don't get me wrong, I love romantic suspense books, but this book wasn't really romantic suspense. It was like a hybrid or maybe just a book going through an identity crisis.At least with some of the suspenseful things we were given hints to them early on, but others seemed to come completely out of nowhere. I would name instances, but I don't like to give things away in my reviews. There are four books in the series and I will be reading them all. I have a feeling that they will all follow this romantic suspense, yet not romantic suspense formula. I also have a feeling that I know how they will all be connected together. The key is definitely the key...Other than the storyline, I did enjoy the characters. The Grayson brothers are definitely my type of family. How could anyone possibly pick just one? Tall, dark, handsome and admittedly semi-reformed bad boys. Sebastian is the first brother up and not only is he hot, but he rides a motorcycle and says some amazingly sweet things in between amazingly arrogant things. Lexie is the perfect match for him, both in and out of the kitchen. I love that she doesn't put up with his crap. I look forward to seeing more of this couple in each of the subsequent books.Arc provide by the publisher via Netgalley for an honest review.
