I received this ARC from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for my fair and honest review
This is another wonderful book by Nichole Severn, lots of fast paced action it feels like you are inside the book itself you get so invested in all that is happening between Elizabeth and Braxton. Someone is determined to kill Elizabeth and Braxton is just as determined to keep her alive. Romantic Suspense is one of my favorite genre’s, I would certainly recommend this book to anything that loves this genre
Explosive from the start to finish the suspense kept me on the edge while the heart-wrenching romance and palpable tension took my breath away. The characters are not perfect, even in the eyes of the law but they are perfect for each other and ready and willing to go to the extreme measures to save the other from the peril.
A fabulous addition to the series!
“Rules in Deceit” is book 3 of Nichole Severn’s Blackhawk Security miniseries.
Four months ago, Elizabeth Dawson left the NSA to work for Blackhawk Security. She changed her identity to start a new life in Anchorage. Now, Braxton Levitt, who disappeared after their one night, is back in her life.
After leaving Liz, Braxton discovers someone is out to get her and it has something to do with the project she worked on while at the NSA. His mission is to protect what he considers his—Liz.
“Rules in Deceit” has action from the very beginning. While some fight scenes tip the scale on believability (how many times can a person really get up?), the choreography is realistic and movie-esque.
If you like heart-pounding action that makes you read faster to see what happens, you’ll love Ms. Severn’s writing.
Rules in Deceit
Nichole Severn
Braxton and Liz remind me of the commercial that says “takes a ‘lickin’, but keeps on tickin’!” How they survived is beyond me, but they are survivors. An action packed intense story that you don’t want to put down.
Once again you are drawn into suspense and romance that leaves you wanting more.
Really strong characters who have you holding your breath at times as they fight against the evil being done.
Can’t wait to read the next
one.
More and more I am finding my way into good suspense that also has romance. Such is the case with this one that has you fallen into the story right away. Elizabeth and Braxton have us following them through this suspense that also has their chemistry building as the danger builds. They will also have us pulled to the edge of our seat a time or two. With also more than just them is a added anxious times when it comes to staying safe. Oh I could hardly wait at times to get my answers and see where we get to land. Another one that satisfy the craving.
Absolutely Fantastic .

Rules in Deceit was a great read! Severn did a wonderful job of balancing the storyline with adventure, action, suspense, and romance and providing characters that were down-to-earth, likable and whom the readers would root for their happy ending. This story definitely did not disappoint – engaging from the beginning with an amazing ending. A great addition to the series!
*I received an ARC from the author and I am voluntarily providing my honest review.
This is the third book in Nichole’s Blackhawk Security series and it starts with a bang and never lets you go! Elizabeth and Braxton are two amazing characters! Braxton and Elizabeth were torn apart by a misunderstanding and he vanishes. She’s put through the ringer after he vanishes. When someone sets out to eliminate Elizabeth, Braxton won’t let it happen at any cost.
This book is full of action, romance, second-chance love, and an amazing ending! Characters are well built throughout the book.
I was given an ARC by the author for a fair review and this book is absolutely amazing!
4 1/2 STARS!
RULES IN DECEIT is book three in Nichole Severn’s attention grabbing Blackhawk Security series and centers around former NSA teammates who reconnect amid secrets and scandals in this reunion story.
Elizabeth is a strong female lead who stands tough even when faced with the man who she believes betrayed her and just so happens to be the unknowing father of her baby-to-be.
Braxton is quick to catch a reader’s attention because he seems like such an upstanding guy even though he’s being accused of bad things. It doesn’t take us long to realize he’s there to help her … and maybe things aren’t exactly like they’ve been portrayed.
I highly recommend this story to all intrigue fans. It’s fast paced, action packed and very satisfying. You can’t go wrong with any of the books in the series so far, and I’m looking forward to more to come.
Loved this book and love this series. I don’t put spoilers in my reviews because I’m the type of person who doesn’t want to find out the ending of a book while reading a review. Ruins the book in my opinion. I will say that this book was intense, action right from the start. You feel the struggles of the characters trying to overcome their issues while staying alive. Once I started this book, I could not put it down. I could not go to sleep unless I knew how this ended. Great book!
First I want to say this is a series which can be read as stand-alones. I have read them in order. All books are fantastic. Ms. Severn grabs your from the first page all the way to the end. Writes wonderful characters.
Elizabeth has started her life over and after her career was torn apart then only place that gave her a shot was at Blackhawk Security. Braxton Levitt walks back into her like after he left 4 months. He claims he wants to protect her, and that she’s in danger. Until two things happen does she believe him.
One an explosion went off and Two someone was taking a shot at her, or them. She wasn’t sure. Then unthinkable happened. Braxton took her away from the mess. He would stop at nothing to protect her.
So good and so much more to come. She knows he’s hiding something? What is it?
She also refuses to believe anything he tells her. But he’s being so darn nice and taking care of her.
