Do you know what you’ve done?I’ve sunken my teeth into a story that could make my career–an exposé on the most powerful man in the city. Even a vicious attack fails to deter my ambitions. But when Detective Sebastian Reed enters my life, I face the greatest obstacle of all.
He’s steely and magnetic, and determined to keep me safe. Except there is no safe. Only stolen moments, secrets and … safe. Except there is no safe. Only stolen moments, secrets and lies.
And a tinder box of an attraction, waiting to ignite.
Every touch is a reckless diversion, because out in the night a hooded figure plots his revenge.
Do you know what you’ve done?
I don’t.
But someone’s determined to make me pay for it with my life.
This book had a little of everything.-romance, tensions, crime and a hunky cop.
I really enjoyed it.
Liked this book liked characters and had good ending
A fast reading book. The charactors really come to life.
This book had me on the edge until the very end. Just wow! I’m usually really good at predicting the endings of stories but even though I had a few suspects in this story of which I believed were behind all of what’s going on I have to hand it to the author for taking me by surprise at the end because this person was not one I thought of. I was so wrong with my guesses.
I absolutely enjoyed this story. It was a nice change to all my previously read books.
The Story:
Amelia’s job as a journalist means everything to her. With no family and no real friends she is on her own and never cared much about anything else than for a good story she would do anything for, even risking her own life. When she doesn’t feel safe anymore because of a stranger lurking in the shadows and waiting to jump on her – at least that’s what she feels after an attack on her – she seeks help from Detective Reed. But can she even trust him? Does he believe her or does he think she is just paranoid?
Sebastian Reed doesn’t like journalists because they are always on the hunt for the next story no matter the damage they cause. He has to be careful with Amelia though her beauty makes it hard for him to be cautious around her.
Thoughts:
This story was suspenseful and unpredictable because even though you might think to know what will happen, it doesn’t. This will have you on the edge and take you for a thrilling ride. I actually turned all my lights on in my apartment and checked the door twice if it’s locked. I was paranoid because of this well written story that made me question every sound around me. And it wasn’t even a thriller but a suspenseful romance. I’m really a scared chicken.
I was easily pulled into the story and even though I couldn’t connect with Amelia I was very fond of Detective Reed. *swoon* There wasn’t as much romance in this book as I thought but the bit that I got out of it had me fanning myself.
This is definitely worth reading especially when you’re looking for a book full of suspense that will keep you on your toes and doesn’t reveal the bad guy until the end.
I loved this book and will look for more by this author.
Great book Love reading couldn’t put down until I finished it looking forward to the next book
This book was ok. It was an easy read but not the kind of story I would read again and again. Good for a quick story.
Book was good. Kept me guessing.
I found this book to have an intriguing plot. I haven’t read my books with a journalist story line so for me that put a twist on this romance.
This book grabs your attention from the first chapter and keeps you hooked. There are a number of different twists and the ending is gripping.
Too much bad language and sexual content for me. Sorry I downloaded this free book. I didn’t even finish the first chapter!
I’m old and I don’t remember what the story was about just that it was good!
Good romance.
Really good read…. Read it in one day!
Could not put it down.
It was a good read, an unexpected ending
Reckless Touch is my first book by Veronica Larsen. I’m impressed. Ms. Larsen has delivered a book written in first-person, alternating point of view, which I usually hate. But I’m forced to admit, in this book, it totally works. Kudos to Ms. Larsen. Amelia is a reporter, attacked leaving work one night. When an arrest is made but the stalkerish gifts keep arriving, she insists they have the wrong man. Sebastian is a detective and believes Amelia is in danger. Amelia and Sebastian’s story is loaded with drama, bits of humor, action, suspense and sizzle. This story captured me at the first page and held me hostage until the end. I look forward to reading more from Veronica Larsen in the future. Reckless Touch is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.
