*ARC provided for blog tour review* For unedited review and more juiciness: http://www.pageturningbookjunkie.blogspot.comHoly suspenseful, tension filled, enthralling storyline Batman! This book was not what I was expecting, but it blew my socks off nonetheless. The storyline really kept me guessing...and that's hard to accomplish by the way. When I read stories with suspense, I tend to put my Sherlock Holmes hat on, and piece together what is going to happen without much effort. This book made me throw that hat out the window, and just sit and enjoy ever twist and turn. I don't even know where to begin with this one, because I would hate to give away any juicy pieces of the story, and believe me, there are many. This was such a refreshing book that was really well written. You are not only filled with tension from the dramatic events unfolding at every turn, but also from the sexual chemistry between Jada and Jonathan that was scorching hot. Their first interactions were hostile, but hot at the same time. Jada was in deep denial of the attraction, and thought he was arrogant and self assured, which led to some quite bitchy comments from her. Jonathan on the other hand was immediately drawn to her. He wanted to be around her, despite her apparent distaste towards him.Jada was a successful resort hotel owner who was about to get married to the man she loved in just a few days. Everything seemed to be going smoothly, until she walked in on a scene that would forever be burned in her mind. This betrayal ends up leading to a string of dramatic events that would change her life forever. Right dead smack in the middle of the effed-up cluster storm that has become her life, she meets a devilishly handsome tall drink of water named Jonathan. Even though the beginning was a little rough, she ends up depending on him more than she thought possible, especially in the chaos she was stuck in the middle of. Jada was being accused of a crime she didn't commit, and it seems the people really involved in that crime are out to get her. Due to the ever growing threats, she struggles to truly let Jonathan in, because she doesn't know who to trust anymore. Jonathan wants to be there for her, but he is also in quite a sticky situation, being that he is the District Attorney. He could eventually be on the opposing side of her case, should she be charged with the crime. Talk about an effed up situation to be in.There are so many different emotions flying around, most of which they both try to fight because of the situation they were thrust into. Although they give the fight a good attempt, they both can't deny their connection in the end. Decisions are made that have life altering effects. Jonathan is so damn charming...his dedication to Jada is unwavering. All he wants to do is protect her from all the dangers that surround her, but sometimes you can't control the uncontrollable. Everytime they think they come close to finding out who is behind all the threats, there is another dramatic curve ball thrown their way. How are they supposed to figure out if what they feel is real or if their emotions are just being caught up in the chaotic whirlwind they are both stuck in at the moment? On top of that, Jada has developed some deep seeded insecurities with trusting herself and other people in general. The betrayal of her ex-fiance has effected her judgment and her trust. With all the things piled against them, can they finally find their footing and be together without regret. Will all the threats against Jada end and her name finally be cleared? Strap in for the ride everyone, because this a fantastic romantic suspense done right!Swoony swoon...Jonathan was so amazingly dreamy! The amount of restraint he held to not declare his feelings to Jada was both honorable and so very frustrating to experience. Doing the right thing really sucks sometimes, especially as the reader. I was deliciously and very willingly on the edge of my seat with this book. The journey of their love was like no other. If you enjoy a thrilling and gripping suspense added to your romance story, then this book is for you! I heard good things about Rebecca's other book, Uncorked as well. I will definitely being adding it to my TBR...I hope you will join me. Tip of my imaginary hat to you Rebbeca Rohman...you did a fantastic job at captivating me with all the suspense, and ensnaring me with amazing character connections.Find me at:  [...]Blog:  [...]Goodreads:  [...]
