Talk about bad first dates. Our heroine is kidnapped while our hero is late. He better not do that again or this first date will be the last.
This is book three of the series, but it is written as a standalone. No prior reading is required to enjoy this book.
This is a romantic suspense story and it comes out strong right from the start. I love this genre because of the mix of action and romance and this one certainly works on all accounts. The story is well written, easy to read and has a fast paced plot. The characters are well developed and both are tough and smart, which is what I like in my leads. This one drew me in right at the start and ever let go. I really enjoyed the story and am definitely looking forward to more in the series.
Highly recommended.

This is a quick and easy read. The storyline is well-crafted, intriguing, suspenseful, has drama and steam. The characters are defined, and likable with sizzling chemistry. I liked it.
A nice but short story in which Hunter and Tessa are in the picture of the series about the company Stealth Security.
Tessa has been working for Travis Hewitt, founder of Stealth Security, for quite a few years. Hunter is an ex-SEAL who works for the company. Finally he dares to give in to the attraction between them and asks her out on a date. He does not make it on time and therefore cannot prevent Tessa from being kidnapped by a man who thinks Tessa is Travis’s wife.
But Tessa is a badass woman who does not helplessly allow her to be taken. And while she fights the kidnapper with words, Hunter tries to save her.
A strong role that Tessa plays. Not a woman to touch without gloves as the kidnapper soon discovers. Nice story

I have recently been introduced to this series and am really loving it! Tessa is the office manager at Stealth Securities and is a strong-willed, independent woman. She is dedicated to the safety of the Stealth staff. Hunter is one of the ex-SEAL retirees working there. He and Tessa have been casually flirting with each other since he’s been working there, but it hasn’t gone beyond that. Both are very attracted to each other, but have not acted upon it. They finally plan to go on a date, and when he goes to pick her up, he discovers she has been kidnapped. The race is now on to save her, and Hunter is on her tail. Will he be able to save her? This book is filled with suspense, adventure, and danger and will have you on the edge of your seat. Ms Trent does a great job of bringing the story to life and I could really feel all the action. Great characters had me rooting for them the whole time. I really enjoyed this book and look forward to reading the next one.

I love the story. Hunter is a recent new hire to Stealth Security and is interested in the office manager Tessa. He asks her out, she agrees and then he is late to pick her up. She gets kidnapped instead. I love Tessa and her personality. She is strong and determined.

Tessa and Hunter’s story sucked me in deep!!! I loved the fact that Tessa was no wimp, which is also one of the traits Hunter loved about her. Strong and relatable emotions and wonderful characters! Highly recommended read!

This is the 3rd book in the stealth security series. It is full of action and suspense. It is a short exciting romance.

I really liked this romantic suspense!! The suspense gets started pretty early on and doesn’t let up until the end. Hunter is supposed to take coworker Tessa out on their first date. He’s running late and instead she is kidnapped. The kidnapper has messed with the wrong people though. Tess is intense and can put up a fight. Hunter is more than willing to do what’s necessary to track her down and save her. Their story is a good one. I would love to read more about this couple!!

This story moves along quickly and is actioned packed. It showed good characters who have strength, courage, knowledge, a connection and friends who they can rely on. I personally would have have like to have read some more of them together but thought it was a good read.

Tessa Pate is managing the office at Stealth Security. The business provides protection by retired SEALs. She keeps the office going and keeps all of the guys in line. Spending time with the guys she has picked up a few self defense tips that will help save her life. Hunter Davis is the newest the the team. His specialty is tactical planning and reconnaissance. When Hunter is late to his first date with Tessa she is kidnapped, thrown in the trunk of a car and then duck taped to a chair. With Hunter on her tail will he be able to rescue her?
Ruthless Peril is a quick read that apparently refers back to an earlier case. This being my first read by Emily Jane Trent, I am not sure. Not having read the other books in the series, I didn’t feel like I was missing anything in the story that wasn’t explained.
I loved how spirited Tessa is. She can hold her own with the guys in her team and slows her kidnapper down. The character of Hunter came across as younger than his age. He seemed like he could laugh, have a good time and be very protective. I just wish we would have had a chance to get to know him better. Maybe in other books we do because I want to. Overall the story pace moved well and had likeable characters. I will be reading more from this author.
Short yet action filled:
This was a short novella about Stealth Securities office manager, Tessa and her colleague Hunter.
It was actually the 3rd book in the series but as someone who hasn’t read the previous books, I can attest that it can be enjoyed as a standalone. However it does follow up on the main case from the first book and I may have felt more connected to the story had I already read that.
Rather violent and a little far fetched, it was still gripping and I was curious to find out what was going to happen next. Overall this was well written and good for a quick escape but overall much too short and I wasn’t able to form a strong connection to either of the characters within this abbreviated time period.

Every girl needs a hero….
by and1515
Tessa’s story started off with a peaceful moment at the beach that soon took quite a dramatic shift leaving the poor frustrated girl having to deal with a deeply troubled bumbling idiot.
So now all she has to do is try and keep her mouth in line and pray.

This is the third book in the Stealth Security Series. This is a short read, but has a lot in it, it has action, suspense, wonderful characters and twists and turns that you won’t want to put the book down and also looking forward to the next book in the series.

I really like this series. The story is written in detail and keeps you on the edge of your seat. It has a humorus side, but has all the danger element, heat and intrigue. Tessa works at Stealth Security in administration and works at keeping all the guys straight with their assignments. Hunter is new to the group of ex military men, he’s funny, but strong when he needs to be. When Tessa is in trouble, he will stop at nothing to help her. Excellent series so far. HEA.
