But while breaking into a warehouse that’s owned by Oculus, Roan comes across another…prettier…thief.Kimberly has her own reasons for hunting Oculus – and she’s not sharing those reasons with … she’s not sharing those reasons with this overbearing, bossy, hulk of a guy who thinks he rescued her.

The Conways….
I have to admit that I’m loving this second generation of Conways even more than I loved their fathers. Trust, faith and fear are the key words for this story. Roan and Kimberly must face all three on their way to a HEA/HFN.

Mind-blowing!
When you live in a constant state of the unknown, it’s difficult to know who you can trust as is evident in the relationship between Roan and Kimberly. They are both products of Oculus and get thrown together by some mysterious individual. We get to accompany them on their journey of survival as they try to find and then outrun Oculus.
This book is fast paced, action packed, nail biting and steamy. Roan is more than swoon-worthy and Kimberly’s powers are to die for. I applaud the fact that she isn’t the typical damsel in distress and gives Roan a run for his money. A few nights spent in the Washington woods turns their relationship into something explosive. I love their passion, chemistry and their banter makes this book a really exciting read. I can’t wait to see this family take down Oculus. Well done

This is the second book in the series.
Dive into the new book about the Conway family and their “supernatural abilities.” There is some mystery while still trying to find out about Oculus. This book delves more into Oculus. I love the characters and chemistry between them. There is just the right amount of mystery, suspense, and supernatural elements to keep the reader intrigued.

This is the second book in the series which is a spinoff of a series about the fathers. It is not necessary to read the others to enjoy this book, but it doesn’t feel finished. Not really a cliffhanger. I expect the rest of the stories will pick up where this one left off. An interesting read and an original story line. Good for an afternoon escape.

OMG… loved this book, even better than the last one. The banter between Roan and Kimberly was hilarious at times. They deserve each other, and certainly belong together. Maybe we’re a little closer to finding out the secret of Oculus…

ONE THRILLING ADVENTURE!!!
Man, oh man! Talk about fireworks, this little jewel is hotter than an erupting volcano. Step back, take a breather and jump right in. This is one non-stop action packed, fast paced, page turning dynamo that grabs your attention and holds it from start to finish. One thrilling rollercoaster ride through a constant barrage of enemies. Trying to stay one step ahead in an ever changing world of danger and suspense. Frozen on a razors edge, barely breathing heart pounding, race against time and running out-a-luck. A whirlwind of events and activities that draw rampant emotions swirling through a full spectrum that makes for one incredible experience. All the trials and tribulations along with a few glitches, bumps and bruises bring this bad boy roaring to life beautifully. The characters and scenes are written with such realism, amazing storyline and one incredible plot bring this bad boy to a whole new level. Jacey and Chloe totally rocked this little gem. Thanks guys for sharing this little guy with us.
I liked the story. The characters were good. I had a difficult time following the story in the first few chapters, but the more I read, the more I couldn’t wait to read. I love the books by Jacey Ward and this book is another good book.

I fell in love with Ronan and Kimberly, even at the end I was looking for more. Can’t wait for the next installment of their story. When will I get the story about Occulus (hope I spelled this right). This book is a must read and kept!

It pulls you in. Great. Boy, this book is good. It will get your blood pumping. Who is Oculus? And what do they want with Roan and Kimberly? Can Kimberly trust Roan and can Roan trust Kimberly? And their chemistry? Whoa! And their supernatural powers! Love it, love it, love it. Can’t wait for the next one
I really like Harder Than Steel. I felt that it flowed very well and was well written. I liked the fast pace of the book and look forward to how it turns out.

Eight-year-old Roan was practicing his awakening skills of displacing molecules, his living cells, around the room. His father, Xavier, was horrified, ordered him to stop and had to physically pull him back to stop him. Roan’s grandfather argued with Xavier that he should allow Roan to practice this dangerous talent so that he would become more proficient and gain control. Their tempers were rising as Roan watched the two of them. All his life, his family had lived on a compound, never exploring beyond its confines. He didn’t know why; he didn’t know it was a matter of safety. As his father again tried to warn him from using his powers, it had the opposite effect and made him more eager to find out what else he could do that his father wanted to hide from him. Xavier went outside to talk to his father privately. Danica Conway, Roan’s mother, then entered the room and tried to warn him about using his powers in case someone got hurt. Once again, he was upset his parents didn’t trust him – he was sure he could control the power and not hurt anyone. Why couldn’t they see that? This time his mother’s eyes did not meet his – and he realized she was afraid of him!
Twenty years later, Roan and his cousin, Coy, were trying to get into a warehouse to see what Oculus may be hiding there. Coy had gotten him the intel, and now it was up to Roan. The high security meant he would have only once chance. The powerful Oculus always seemed to be one step ahead of them.
Roan drove to an old diner to get a meal. When he asked what that warehouse was, the waitress and customers glared at him and the entire atmosphere of the place cooled down! He pretended he was looking for work, and the waitress warned him off, even following him outside later to tell him to stay away from the warehouse. It was obvious his suspicions had been confirmed! But when he was ready to break in, he faced guards, an electrified fence, and barbed wire. He could use his powers of invisibility, super-strength, or could disassemble their atomic make-up until he finished his search and then put them back together again… but he had never done that, thanks to his father’s intervention! How would he break in? What would he find inside?
This was a good continuation of the main story with mystery and suspense to keep the reader interested. The Conway family has a long history with Oculus, an evil organization hoping to capture members of this family with their special skills. This time, Roan runs into someone else who needs some answers they can only get from the Oculus organization. Will they join forces? Or will they be captured? Grab your copy and see what is ahead for them!
Another Conway installment and I love it! Another fascinating couple in Roan and Kimberly. I just can’t get enough of this series and I’m so glad JW has kept going with this series.

**Three and a half stars**
Normally I’m a huge fan of Jacey….but this latest book seems a little bit less. Don’t get me wrong, the storyline is alright, but it ended so briskly, I was just really getting into the story and it was done.

Another series installment in the Hard world series. Still loving the storyline and the new characters. This has been a real page-turner. An easy, fast paced read full of mystery and suspense that leaves you entertained from the very beginning. There’s a bit of romance with some very unexpected revelations.
Roan Conway runs into Kimberly Semple during an undercover operation in which he later learns was not by accident. Kimberly, another unwitting pawn of Oculus’s plans is stumbling towards a hard truth about herself. Oculus is much closer than they would like to believe with its uncanny ability of continuously manipulating all of their subjects’ lives. Will anyone truly ever be safe from the reach of Oculus, I look forward to reading more of this series.
Another suspense filled paranormal romance read
Kimberly, a woman with secrets, is driven to find out what happened to her mother. She encounters Roan, a genetically altered human, while searching for answers. As the story progresses trust is earned, betrayal cuts deep, and the path they take is twisted by false information. Jacey Ward and Chloe Fischer have given her readers another suspense filled paranormal romance read in the ongoing Conway family centered The Hard series.

Kimberly and Roan are on the search for Oculus. It’s too much of a coincidence that they end up at the same warehouse. Good book, well written!
