As a couple, Belle and Grant were the perfect “Beauty and the Beast” romance. Grant’s confidence took a serious dent after his injury and he’s been slowly sinking into a depressive state. But protecting Belle has given him a new purpose and he’s determined to stop whoever is trying to hurt her. There’s something so innocent about Belle and he just wants to stand by her side and give her everything she wants. I loved how protective Grant was — he was the perfect mix of alpha and gentle and I loved how he was around Belle. I can imagine him as the type of guy who doesn’t say much and doesn’t smile much but turns into a big softy around his love. Belle herself was also great and she never lets Grant’s scars or his worries get in the way of their growing relationship. She’s straightforward and honest with Grant and has no problem expressing what she wants. These two set the pages on fire.

I also enjoyed the action and the fast pace of the story. In true Katie Reus fashion, a lot of story is crammed into less than 200 pages. A great blend of action and romance I never felt like any part of the story was let down to focus on other parts. Yes, Belle and Grant fall in love really fast but I loved every second of it. We also got to meet some new Red Stone guys, Vincent and Travis, and I can’t wait for their stories.

In true Katie Reus style, we are treated to an action packed romantic suspense. Grant Caldwell is recovering from a job related accident. Burns over a portion of his body, he has not yet come to terms with it all. He hears his next door neighbor as she is being manhandled and comes to her aid. Belle is a strong, independent woman, and she sees Grant for who he is. Thankful for his help, the two have instant chemistry. But this isn't the end! Belle is continually being stalked and Grant is doing everything he can to keep her safe. But can he? Even with Red Stone Security behind him, danger is lurking. And now their hearts are invested in it as well. I love Katie Reus's writing style. She can pull me into a story and keep me captivated from start to finish. This team of characters is fantastic and I am loving the series. Pyper Down gives a good performance and makes it an fun listen.

Une romance entre voisins qui se dévore !

Comme d'habitude avec Katie Reus, une romance mignonne et sexy avec une intrigue sur fond de stalker que j'ai lu avec beaucoup de plaisir !
J'adore en plus les romances avec un voisin grognon et une voisine mignonne harcelée =D

Bref, une romance mignonne et sexy qui se lit avec plaisir Je suis curieuse de découvrir la suite de la famille Cadwell mais aussi leurs employés =D


*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*


A romance between neighbors that I devour !

As usual with Katie Reus, a cute and sexy romance with a stalker plot that I read with great pleasure !
I also love romances with a grumpy neighbor and a cute harassed neighbor =D

In short, a cute and sexy romance that is a pleasure to read I'm curious to discover the rest of the Cadwell family but also their employees =D

Grant Caldwell loved being a cop, but after a explosion during a drug bust leaves him scarred he finds himself hiding out in his house and wondering what direction he life will go. Enter new neighbor Belle Manikas.

Belle, a OB/Gyn nurse, moves next door to Grant to finally make her independent stance with her family. Too bad, her independent streak is marred by a stalker that her sexy neighbor is determined to save her from. Too bad it seems her stalker has more to do with getting Grant back in the game than coming after her.

I LOVED this addition to the Red Stone Security series. Grant is perfect as the scarred hero, all broody and bitter while still honor bound to protect those that need it. Unfortunately, all Grant saw of himself now was the scars from the blast and not the man he is at his core. That's why Belle was his perfect woman. She saw past the scars, immediately to see just what kind of man Grant was.

I enjoyed the storyline with the serial killer managing to pull Grant out of his pity party and working for Red Stone. It was a little disturbing to think a serial killer could obtain the name and address of a ex-cop in hopes of continuing his game, but it totally kept you on the edge of your seat...which was a lot of fun.

Awesome, awesome read.

This book was exactly what I wanted from this series. It was perfect - Belle, Grant, the romance, the scarred (literally) hero and heroines and the action (which made the whole book not just great, but magnificent).

I loved it so so much and I am kind of surprised, knowing that the first one didn't impress me. I don't know what to think about the 3rd book because the couple is already in love and married so what's the point of writing a book about them? But who knows, maybe Katie Reus will surprise me.

5/5 stars

This is my second favourite story from this series..
Grant and Belle..

It was incredibly nice to see an alpha male like Grant in a vulnerable and insecure state..It was so beautiful to see a woman build up the confidence in the man,and not the other way around which is the coomn thing to happen..

Belle is just so beautiful and pure..She exudes kindness and love,even from the pages of the book..She is the epitome of beauty..From her way of thinking to the lack of filter in her mouth (so many funny scenes because of that!) and her gentle way of touching people,without even planning on it..

It takes Grant a lot of time to figure things out,though..And I must admit that I loved him for it..Grant Caldwell is an amazing man..Not because he is hot or overprotective or so decent..But because he doesn't know it..He is strong but he doesn't realize it..What he does realize is Belle..And she becomes his strength and his heart..

They are 2 beautiful people,who make an equally beautiful couple..They complete each other perfectly..She is soft and sweet,when he is hard( not only on that part,ladies!) and relentless and so powerful..

I loved their story..One of the best stories of the series..
