“Baited Truth is the perfect mix of action, suspense, romance and heat. It’s an edge-of-the-seat puzzle that keeps you guessing until the last piece is in place. A must read for lovers of suspense and laugh-out-loud humor!” – USA Today Best Selling Author Naima SimoneBrookeNothing about my life has been easy, but that hasn’t stopped me from living it. So when someone sets out to steal that life … to steal that life from me, they better come heavily armed and with an army close behind, because nothing short of nuclear warfare is going to stop me from protecting what’s mine.
When my mom gets taken, I set out to find her and missing pieces of a puzzle I didn’t even know existed start to fall into place.
I might end up paying the price for someone else’s sins, but there’s no turning back now. I’m far too invested in this now – in finding my mom, in untangling the web of lies surrounding me, and more than anything else, I’m far too invested in the sexy, secretive and seriously annoying man helping me.
Grant
As an ex-SEAL that’s seen and endured horrors the majority of civilians think only exist in Hollywood, I really thought there wasn’t much that could surprise me anymore.
Then Jack, my boss and closest thing I have to a dad, goes missing.
He goes missing on the same day a pint-sized little spitfire that makes waterboarding sound relaxing compared to her relentless persistence shows up. She shows up someplace she doesn’t belong and claims to be looking for her mom, who was abducted the same day Jack went missing.
Her arrival starts looking less and less like a coincidence and more like karma looking to punish me for decades of sins I didn’t even know I’d committed.
She fights me at every turn. Challenges me in the worst ways. And turns me on like no woman has before.
Not that I have any plans of hooking up with the nuisance who lives to make my life difficult. I’d have to be a giant dumbass to get into bed with her before knowing if she’s friend or foe.
Apparently I’m a giant dumbass.

I have not found a book that this author has written that I have not loved. I absolutely devoured this book once I started it. Action, suspense & romance. This book had all 3 things I love!!
Just when I think Jenn hype can’t get any better she writes something like this! She is able to write so many different thing and have it flow like it’s all she writes. She nailed romantic comedy, she kept me on the edge of my seat with romantic suspense and now this…… This book is romance with action thrown in and she NAILED it! She gets better and better with each book. I can’t wait to see what else she can come up with! This is her 5th book in a little more then a year, and she is an author to watch out for.
With out giving too much away, this book has it all, but I’m going to talk about the budding romance. These two characters fine love despite everything that’s happening. And I mean there is a lot of stuff that goes down, but in the end you can tell that they’re perfect for each other.
This is the type a book that will keep you on the edge of your seats, tons of twists and turns, and even some heartbreak.
Get this book you won’t be sorry. I know that my review was vague but I did that for a reason because I do not want to spoil this book for anybody. But overall, The heroine kicks butt, the hero is a total Alpha! And the plot is epic with twists you don’t see coming! 5 stars! #2OCCJD

I just didn’t want to put this book down. The ending had a little different twist can’t say anymore it would ruin the story for the next person to read.
Just finished reading this excellent book. Good strong characters and storyline kept me on tenterhooks until the end.

Such an amazing book. It hooked me in from the beginning…I read it in 2(or less)hours because I couldn’t put it down.
I thought the characters were well written

Baited Truth is the perfect mix of action, suspense, romance and heat. It’s an edge-of-the-seat puzzle that keeps you guessing until the last piece is in place. A must read for lovers of suspense and laugh-out-loud humor!
I just love Brooke’s funny, sassy attitude. She sure throws Grant for a loop. The backstory was amazing. I’m so glad I read this book.
Great read!! Action packed. Unpriditabl e
Jenn Hype never ceases to amaze me. Every book I have read of hers is different from the next. She goes from sassy, smartass to completely all in with a hint of crazy. Baited Truth isn’t that different except it is more of a whole lot of “what the hell” and just a little sassy smartassery.
Brooke has the sassiness under her belt but also has a lot of survival instincts that keep her going even though there isn’t any tangible reason that gives the reader any hint as to why she has to have a defense mechanism, to begin with. She, like the majority of Americans, grew up in a one parent home struggling to make ends meet. She has an ex-cop neighbor that teaches her all of the intricacies of defending herself. She lives life, goes to college then one day she gets a call from her mom that worries her, there is an attempt to abduct her, very forcefully then she is carried off by a strange man who she can’t determine if he is friend or foe.
Grant is typical badass alpha male. He is pushed into a chance meeting when Brooke is put in the line of fire as he is attempting to find his missing boss. He, like most ex-military, likes his life wrapped up in a tiny package and sealed with a bow. Brooke may come in a small package but she sure isn’t sealed, and there isn’t a bow in sight, though I’m certain he wants one at times to shut her up.
Very fast read. Read in less than a day. Kept my attention from beginning to the end with a few twists and turns.

The characters have no moral compass. The mother is killed in front go her daughter and the character appears superficial and sociopathic in response.
It keeps a steady pace with lots of ups and downs and action. It is not a steamy romance more like an action romance. You never know what will happen next. From blowing buildings up to kidnappings to love, death betrayal and family. What more could you want from a book.
