Heather Slade did a great job on Riled. The story was written well with a strong plot and characters. The story was filled with many emotions.
From the moment Rile and Kensington met, there was an instant attraction. Rile tried to keep his distance but that was hard to do. Kensington and Rile were drawn to one another. The connection, their chemistry was strong, steamy. They were great together.
Rile was very protective when it came to Kensington, he’d do anything to keep her safe.
This was a great story, I enjoyed it.
Thank you, Heather Slade. Great work 🙂
This is a terrific addition to this series, packed with romance, passion, action, suspense,family, friends, and interesting characters.This story will have you laughing one second or angry the next, along with all the in betweens.

ONE ADRENALINE RUSHING RIDE!!!
Spectacular! Heather dropped the bomb, blowing me clean out of the water with this breathless wonder, laying out one arresting storyline and gripping plot, ratcheting up the thrill of the chase and the skill of the hunt, wrapping this baby up sleek, shiny and tight. May/December never sounded so sweet. Obliterating the boundaries and pushing the limits, laying out strong suits and short straws, getting weighed and balanced, bouncing this gem into the eye of the storm, slamming it into overdrive, launching it into a hissy with a mind-blowing culmination. Shenanigans, escapades and havoc run amuck, rousting the drama, anxiety, intrigue, turmoil, underlying threats, danger, mounting suspense and intense situations along with a double dose of quick wit, you have one jaw dropping masterpiece. Carrying the load and towing the line, imparting one action packed, hard hitting, pulse racing, heart pounding, adrenaline pumping, page flipping, block busting bombshell, keeping you riveted on a razors edge and frozen to your seat. The potently raw magnetism, attraction and sizzling chemistry explores the intensity, drawing you deeper until you feel the electrifying hum running rampant through your veins. The characters are complex and authentic with qualities and traits that blend and flow, adding depth, transforming into genuine charismatic personalities. The scenes come alive wonderfully with such abundant details and descriptions creating a colorful backdrop that makes the storyline pop. Remarkable job Heather, thanks for sharing this lil’ fella with us.
“Riled” (The Invincibles Book 4) by Heather Slade is a great read. I loved ‘Rile’ Cortez and Kensington’s story. This is a terrific addition to this series, packed with romance, passion, action, suspense, military, family, friends, interesting characters, and more. I’m looking forward to seeing what happens next with this series. Highly recommend to all fans of romance, suspense, and series.
This was my first book in this series. It was interesting and page-turning. This story has a well-written plot, that introduces high-tech to help solve the crime. Detective Matthew Roy has a personal stake in finding the serial rapist, and he must hold himself in check or get booted off the case. Investigative reporter Julie Crenshaw stumbles across a case that would enhance her career, if she doesn’t end up dead. The characters were well-developed and believable. I enjoyed reading and will read the others in the series.
I love this series and this one left me breathless and wanting more. Cortez or code name Rile, the founder of the Invincible’s is asked by the Queen to fInd her great great niece, discreetly of course. She fears she has been kidnapped. When Grinder and Rile locate her, they rescue her from Konstantine, who tells her they are to be married the next day as he attempts to rape her. Determined to keep her safe, he takes her to his home on an island and the attraction between the two is undeniable. Heather does an excellent job with the well written storyline that keeps you turning g page after page. The characters are wonderful, captivating and exciting. Rile is unflappable and always in control. Kenzie’s character grows throughout the story . It’s an emotional read with suspense, ups and downs, twists and turns and hot chemistry. Can’t wait for the next book in this series. Loved it!

This is book 4 in the Invincible series and my favorite Heather Slade book. Cortez DeLeon (Rile) is founder of The Invincible Intelligence and Security group, has been asked by the Queen to rescue and protect Kensington Whitby. Cortez and Kensington have instant attraction. Cortez resists this attraction for two reasons, one is the 10 year age difference and secondly he has had a great loss in his past and will not risk love and loss again..
Kensington, an old soul raised by her grand parents has always preferred older men and feels like she has no direction.
This story has is all : love, danger, mystery, high emotions and self discovery. Great characters throughout the story.. Well done Heather!!

A captivating read from beginning to end! An exciting storyline that leaves you breathless wanting more! Sexy steam filled chemistry! Emotionally heartfelt, enjoyable and fun! One heck of a twisted, intense rollercoaster ride! An amazing must read!
Once I got into the story, I couldn’t stop reading. There were some parts that seemed a bit slow but picked up fairly quickly. The connection between Cortez and Kensington was great if not a bit spooky. Their story is full of emotional moments, some heartbreaking and some happy, along with lots of drama and a wonderful HEA.

Just finished Riled. OMG — WOW! What a great book! Cortez ‘Rile’ DeLeon, one of the founding members of the Invincibles and a royal in his own right, has been requested by the Queen to quietly rescue her great niece Kensington Whitby and provide protection for her. Rile feels an immediate connection with Kensington, but he is closed off and unable to open his heart to Kensington. He has some baggage that keep him from opening to Kensington. Plus, he has a secret that is a bit surprising. These two are smoking hot in this tale of suspense, roy-als, secrets and love. Soon they open up to each other, at least in part. Saying too much would give away too many twists and surprises in this wonderful story, so I will only say – WOW, I LOVED IT! Definitely need to get this one!
Riled is book four in The Invincibles series. Cortez DeLeon (Rile) founder of The invincible Intelligence and Security group. Rile has been personally summoned by the Queen to retrieve and protect Kensington Whitby. Rile and Kensington are immediately attracted to each other, but Rile fights their attraction he’s not willing to take the chance on love. The author creates scenes of mystery, action, drama, friendships and romance to this story! Rile and his team work perilously to keep Kensington safe all while figuring out who and why is a threat to her. I found it very difficult to put this book down as with the other three in this series. This author is one of my favorite. She draws you right into the story and keeps you intrigued up to the very last word. I cannot wait for book five. This book as with the previous books continues with previous characters you’ve grown to cherish and love plus introducing new characters. This entire series is a must read. Love this stories.

Cortez ‘Rile’ DeLéon has a very interesting background and I’m not talking about his time with SIS. This story opens with a very interesting conversation with Rile and the Queen of England who happens to be his second cousin once removed. She wants his help to find Kensington her great-great niece. It needs to be done under the table to avoid any unnecessary press.
Rile gets in touch with Grinder who is still in London and the two of them begin their search for Kensington. Apparently she’s been keeping company with Konstantine von Habsburg, heir to the former Austro-Hungarian throne and she was last sighted in Budapest.
After extracting her from the clutches of Konstantine, arrangements are made for her to her mother Kiki’s home in America. Unfortunately it isn’t long before Kensington hears a conversation between her mother and Konstantine. In a panic she calls Cortez and arrangements are made to get her out of there. Arrangements that have her meeting up with one of her best friends Teagan ‘Angel’ Evans who is now part of her security. As they begin the journey back to England, plans change a word reaches them of an attempt on Konstantine’s cousin Otto’s life.
This is the beginning of a very interesting romance. Being on Mallorca opens the door to some facts about Cortez that few know and Kensington discovers she wants a lot more than security from him.
Full of twists, turns, suspense, intrigue and sizzling heat, I couldn’t put this book down.
Oh, I thought that this book was absolutely delicious!! Rile and Kensington’s romance delivers plenty of emotion, tension and heat. I thought these two made an amazing couple. Rile’s closed off, almost stoicism generated atomic sparks when met by Kensington’s fierce determination. Attraction, desire, danger, baggage, turmoil, drama, tension and emotion are skillfully crafted into a potent blend that will quickly pull you in and have you dancing on the edge, eager to see what happens next. This is a terrific read and a excellent addition to this series. I am electing to post a candid review.
Well Heather Slade has done it again with Riled, a well written and exciting story. It is full of content with likeable characters and a great storyline and one I thoroughly enjoyed and recommend.
Cortez, aka Rile, has been asked by the Queen to protect someone she cares about very much, Kensington Whitby. From the moment Rile rescues Kensington from someone trying to do her harm he feels the connection and it’s a connection he does not want. He is suffering from a tragedy that happened several years ago. His heart knows he can’t ever open up to that kind of hurt again but his body and mind are fighting his heart. When Kensington is in real danger he gets a group together to protect her life. During this time together sparks fly and a real closeness develops; however, there are many things threatening to keep them apart.
Riled is my absolute favorite in this series! It is a beautiful love story with such tenderness as well as being a very sexy story. I love Rile and Kensington’s characters so much. They were so made for each other. The plot is nail biting, page turning and “can’t wait to see how it ends” kind of a story. The heartbreak that Rile suffered is so sad and the author has written such a beautiful side story regarding this. I loved it! I enjoy stories where the H and H are together for most of the book, having to “go against” whatever forces are trying to keep them apart. This book did not disappoint in the plot, the main characters, and had really interesting secondary characters. The reader gets a peak at what characters from previous books are doing and some are woven quite nicely into Rile’s book. Riled is a very lovely addition to this series. I thoroughly enjoyed it!!!
I enjoyed reading this story! Cortez is tasked to find Kensington and inlist the some of the Invincibles to help him. Cortez finds her just in time to save her from Konstantine and what he is doing to her. Kensington can’t believe what Konstantine is doing to her and what he is about to do her and then someone takes him off her and carries her away. Cortez is immediately attracted to her but fights it because he still grieves for his wife and believes he is to old for her. I could not put it down I had to keep reading to find out what is happening and how it turns out. I recommend this book !!!!!
It’s well written and the storyline have some merit but I found the all thing cold and lacking of passion.

Riled is book four in The Invincibles series. This book has been a highly ideas and now that I’ve read it, it doesn’t disappoint. Riled and Kensington’s book is a steamy, earth rocking read that I feel everyone will love.
I have read Heather Slade before and will do so again. This author writes books I could happily read again and again. The storyline is addictive and you will find it extremely difficult to tear yourself away. Gripping from page 1, through to the end you will find yourself having every emotion pulled from you as you become invested in the characters. Well written and brilliantly detailed, this book could easily be awarded more than the 5 stars I can give.
