This was so great. I really was looking forward to Felicity's story and I wasn't disappointed!

I liked their romance. It was a little quick, it felt quicker than the previous ones but I did enjoy the link to the Mountain Merceneries which I have already read.

Loving this series.

Just when I was getting ready to be sad that there weren't any more Anderson brothers their half brother show up. Ryder is hard edged, capable and wants to get to know them. And Felicity. She however is none to sure about that especially as she is getting ready to run so that no one she loves is hurt by her past.


I found CLAIMING FELICITY a great addition to the Ace Security series. There is a nice sense of tension from the very first page which quickly ratchets skyward. I have always liked Felicity and found Ryder to be a great addition to the group. Add in the witty banter between the characters, an interesting plot and a villain that you will love to hate, what's not to love.


There are some sex scenes though nothing explicit as the book relies on the build up of desire rather then just jumping in the sack. There is also violence but isn't that expected in the romantic suspense genre?


I do recommend this book and this series to any of my readers who enjoy romantic suspense. I am sad that this series is over but rather happy about the fact that a spinoff is mentioned.


*** I received this book at no charge from NetGalley in exchange for a fair and honest review. All opinions expressed within are my own

Loved

I first read the mountain mercenaries series. So I really liked this book. The writing style is a little different from the first three, but we still get a great story. The wrap up we get in the epilogue was interesting, I was surprised knowing that there is another book as this one. But I still enjoyed it.
Loved Ace and Felicity.

Felicity gets her HEA

Finally!! We got to see Felicity’s story. Honestly, I’ve been waiting for this since her appearance in the first of the Ace Security series.

Tough as nails Felicity finally meets an Anderson brother who can keep her safe and let her hold on to the life she’s built after a terrible explain college that has had her on the run for ten years. Ryder was a little less complex than the other men in Susan Stokers world but a badass none the less.

I’m a huge Susan Stoker fan and wait (not so) patiently for her books to be released. I loved how we got to meet some of the men from her next series and I’m hoping that Cole gets his own book soon.

I thoroughly enjoyed this mix of romantic suspense, drama and steam, all mixed into one well written and engaging story. Felicity(/Megan) and Ryder are both nicely rounded, likeable and best of all believable characters.

I wasn't too keen on Ryder's 'insta-love' declaration, but this was balanced nicely by the author allowing the relationship between Ryder and Felicity to develop naturally. This is a little slow-burn, which really suited the story line, though the pair had intense chemistry from the outset. Their pairing was sexily sweet and Ryder's loving intensity was enough to make you melt. I adored that Felicity wasn't like the 'stupid girls' in horror films, mindlessly running into danger. No, that girl had survived 10 years on the run from a psychopath and wasn't about to deliberately put herself in the path of danger.

The plot loops and turns with some very surprising twists thrown in for good measure. The last chapter and epilogue nicely rounded off the Ace line of books but also opened the door for several other stories to emerge from this. I also loved that little nod to Roman “Chief” Proudfit (from Shelter for Sophie) and wondered if there's a story for Maria in the ether.
