Cane is protecting Charlie from a serial killer but knows he is always out there she has been through so much already and now they have a relationship. Not know what is going to happen at the casino they have bad feelings and you never know what will happen or who will end up helping you out
I loved Close Encounter by Stephanie St. Klaire. I loved Cane, who works for Brother’s Keeper Security who is in charge of protecting Charlie. This was such a quick read full of twists & turns. It was great! I enjoyed going back to Brother’s Keeper Security
Stephanie St. Klaire, Close Encounter, is the book I am reviewing. These books do not need to be read in order or all together.
Cane is Charlie’s story is mind blowing; I couldn’t lay the book down, I kept turning the page to try and find out what happened next. It is a great suspense with some steaming scenes mixed in with a couple of cons in there making trouble but prove to be an asset to Cane and Charlie when the bad guy proves to be out-smarting them all.
Close Encounter by Stephanie St Klaire.
When the POTUS’S daughter Charlie is the only surviving victim of a serial killer he hires the best security in the business. Brother’s Keeper Security to protect her.
Cane always had his eye on Charlie so it’s no surprise that they had a casual no strings attached arrangement. When Anson escapes prison and wants his revenge what lengths will Cane go to save her? Will he get to her in time?
Close Encounter by SSK is action packed, full of suspense, humor, and sexy times during a full on Blackout in Las Vegas. This is everything you want and expect from Stephanie. Cane is cousin of the Brother’s Keepers and he is in charge of protecting Charlie from a serial killer determined to get the one who got away from him. Throw in con-artists Skye and Eddie with a strong penchant for PDA who wind up wrapped up in this mess by helping Charlie out, and you’ve got a story you won’t be able to put down. It ends in a cliffhanger, and I cannot wait for the continuation of this story in Stephanie’s new spin-off series.
This is the story of Cain and Charlie. Charlie is the only victim that is alive from Anson Deveraux. Cain is Charlie’s bodyguard. Anson Deveraux is a wanted international serial killer. Cain and Charlie hide out in Las Vegas because they don’t think they will be found there. Anson is a smart techie and will do anything with computers. Anson ends up finding Charlie in Las Vegas and the Pursuit starts. This is a definite must read. The story definitely keep you wanting more.
OMG this was all I could put in the review without restating the summary or giving the story away. It was awesome!
This story was all action from start to finish. Cain and Charlie are trying to stay alive. The story was so good and so twisty and so different, I couldn’t put it down!
I loved this suspenseful romance story. I must say I was hooked from the first paragraph. Once I started this book I couldn’t put it down. This was a wonderful suspense story that is a spinoff of the Brother’s Keepers series. And I must say I am super excited for this new series of this book is any indication of what to expect! I loved Cane and Charlie as a couple and can’t wait for more of them. Surprisingly I also loved Eddie and Skye and would love a little more of them too.
Ms. St. Klaire has become a master at sexy romantic suspense stories. Some of her characters are members of a high class security team called Brothers Keepers. They protect people from the worst dangers & do it successfully. Cane is a member of that team. He’s protecting the only surviving victim of a gruesome serial killer. This story kept me on the edge of my seat. You knew the bad guy was going to show up but not when or how. The addition of a couple running a con added a lightness to the plot. It was witty. It was sexy. It was terrifying!! I really can’t wait until she releases her next book!
Stephanie St Klaire has become my favorite romantic suspense author! I’ve read the brothers keeper series and this is another character related to them BUT you don’t have to know anything about them to read this. Cane and Charlie are so good together even though she is a client and Cane is supposed to be her protector. He will do anything to protect her and that should be his first clue that he is in deeper than he should be. She thinks about him first in everything and that should be her first clue too. When all of Las Vegas goes into a blackout, both of their lives are in danger. And worse yet, in the hands of a couple of con artists ( who may or may not be my favorite secondary characters). I loved the fast pace and intrigue that was woven so intricately through this book. Had me on the edge of my seat!
Charlie and Cane have an impressive must read story! Theirs is filled with fast paced action and suspense. He’s her bodyguard, trying to keep her hidden and protected from a psychotic stalker. When she’s kidnapped, some hilarious antics of a couple con-artists with a penchant for multiple public displays of affection seem to be his only allies. This a prequel to a spinoff series for the Brothers Keepers but can be read as a standalone. I can’t wait for more books in this series.
I loved close encounter by Stephanie St Klaire!! Cane is a relation to the fab O’Reilly brothers.. so as you can imagine a very alpha man! He is protecting Charlie from a serial killer. She is the one that got away from him. these two are friends with benefits so to speak. They work in Las Vegas in a hotel and all is going well until the power is cut. Then the real protective work begins. A fabulous read that left me wanting to read more. . Waiting anxiously for the next one.!
This is romantic suspense at it’s finest. Cane is assigned to protect the only survivor of a serial killer who has managed to escape prison. The chemistry between Cane and Charlie is off the charts and the story takes us on a roller coaster ride of plot and characters. I loved every minute of it and can’t wait til the next story in this series comes out – I need to know what happens next!
WOW, this was an exciting fast-paced story with angst, suspense, and humor. Cane and Charlie have that sexual tension between them just waiting to catch fire. There is a diabolical madman after Charlie and Cane will do anything to protect her. Great characters and a well-written plot. Can’t wait to read more about these characters.
Cane and Charlie are on the run. They are running from a genius serial killer who finds them during his forced blackout! A wild, fun ride where we meet some new characters and see a few old faces.
The story, Close Encounter, is a spinoff from Brother’s Keepers. But guess what it is a total standalone that will suck you into to the suspense and drama surrounding Cane O’Reilly and Charlie, the woman he is protecting.
Charlie has been the obsession of Anson Deveraux since she escaped captivity. He will do anything to get her and I mean ANYTHING!!!! HOLY MOLY hold on to your hat. This is a wild ride. I will never look at Las Vegas the same. Even better this was sort of a prequel. There is more Cane and Charlie to come. I wonder if I go clean the author’s home it will help get it released faster.
This story is set during an area wide blackout in Las Vegas. It is gripping, suspenseful and tender. Cane is tasked with protecting Charlie and was not supposed to fall for her, but life has other plans. Eddie and Skye, working their usual cons, are just in the wrong place at the wrong time but they manage to save the day. However, did the bad guy die or did he live to return another day!
I absolutely loved Close Encounter! I was captivated by this story and loved the twist at the end. I can’t wait to see how that situation turns out. I would love to see what the future holds for Cane and Charlie, and I hope we get to see more of Eddie and Skye in future stories. They were so entertaining!
I voluntarily read and reviewed a complimentary Advance Reader Copy.
WOW!! Close Encounters by Stephanie St. Klaire is a great introduction to her new series! This is a suspenseful and exciting story with lots of twists and turns. Edge of your seat page turner! Can’t wait for the next story!!
Close Encounter: Loved the characters names. Love Charlie and how she would put Cane in his place. When Cane would get distracted. The story made me laugh and cry while reading it. Love how Stephanie St Klaire tells her stories. She puts a lot of heat into her stories and that is what makes the story! Loved the whole Blackout idea. It was a great story!
