The year is not over yet so you may still get a few review in 2017 however i must admit that since i'm really behind in my handcrafted gift making ( supposed to be finished before christmas^^) this is my priority as long as my health allows it and these days it's not cooperating so i'm posting this later that i wished.
Anyway i got the opportunity to try a new to me author Carmen Falcone for her latest release Brazilian Surrender and while it's part of a series you can definitively start by this one as it's a perfect stand alone.
Happy reading

My opinion:
This is my first story from this story and i must say that i hope it
won't be the last because this book is part of a series -but can be read as
standalone without any trouble at all- which i didn't know at first and now i
would love to check the other books in it.
But
one thing at a time and now it start with Camila, she is a very kind and
loyal girl but she longs for anonymity
and freedom so when she start receiving threats she chooses to find help
outside her family and enter Jaeger who has his own security firm.... While
Camila is very open and still naïve Jaeger is closed, still hurting from the
deaths of his wife and son; he is very talented at what he does, very
professional but his work is his own way to hide. So when he feels attraction
for Camila at the first sight he hesitates before accepting her case but her
innocence and persistence make it impossible to refuse.
When discovering that the threat is even
more deadly he decides to even take her
home for her protection despite his attraction growing and his difficulty to
hide it.
Camila is really resilient, we learn of
her life before she had money and all what happened...still she always fought
for what she believed in ( like studying despite dyslexia) and i found her
admirable...this time too she will have to face a lot and she still will try to
help Jaeger who isn't making things easy and will slowly open himself to her a
bit.
The story is really steamy but i prefer
not to explain why as it's kind of part
of the story in itself but i prefer to inform those who would prefer sweeter level.
The investigation is well done, i appreciated that Jaeger had doubt because of what happen it made it more
believable but there were still some very dark and sad part ( hard not to cry a
little for Torto)
All together it was really a good read
and the fact it can be read as standalone is even better so if you are looking
for a good steamy romance suspense i recommend you this one.
Score: 4/5
