Wow! What a heart pumping read!! From the first page, it kept me on the edge of my seat. The connection between Patrice and Michael is almost instant but she has been through so much that she is afraid to let go. And she has others she needs to protect so when danger comes calling she will do all she can to defer that from them, but at what price?
I thoroughly enjoyed this short read, I need to catch up with the rest of this series!!

Remarkable job Shue, thanks for sharing this little gem with us.
This story features Patricia, who leaves her abusive husband and meets Michael, a bodyguard hired to protect her and her son.
This book is full of action and excitement!! It has romance but also deals with some harsh reality so it may contain triggers for some.
This book was very detailed and definately a page turner for me. I couldn’t wait to see if love won out in the end.
This is a short read and E.M. Shue does an amazing job of writing it!! If you enjoy intense and exciting stories you should definitely read this book.
Boy oh boy talk about true love. They have a love that stood the test of time. Love this story and especially the back story of the kids.
It was not tough for me to embrace this one
Patrice, a stay at home military mom, meets Michael, a former Navy SEAL, when he is assigned as her bodyguard after leaving her husband. As the story progresses they fight their attraction, her past comes back, and sacrifices are made by them both to keep everyone safe. E.M. Shue leads the reader on a twisted path while telling this romance tale Craftily weaving through time and letting the cards fall where they may; it was not tough for me to embrace this one. Reader discretion is advised due to dark subject matter and/or possible triggers contained within.
I received a free copy of the book from the author. I had the opportunity to review or not.
Another fantastic edition to this amazing series. This author really knows how to suck you in and keep you hooked until the last page.

This should be on everyone’s must read list because you will not be disappointed.
Really loved this book
“I received a free copy with no obligation to review”
Drama drama drama! Patrice will do whatever it takes to protect her son from her abusive ex-husband. A favor is called in which causes Micheal to move from his home in the US to England. Love at first sight but but the love goes unfulfilled due to Patrices strong convictions to not only to protect her son but also Micheal, the love of her life. Many years pass before Micheal and Patrice can truly be together.
The love and devotion is awe inspiring. Such a great short read. Would recommend to anyone.
Holy crap on a cracker! The story opens up immediately with Nathan, her husband, confronting Patrice about telling his commanding officer he’d been drinking again. Her only reason is so she and their twelve year old son, Joshua, can leave. She has a shelter lined up but time seems to have run out. Nathan kicks and beats her so badly she has bones broken and she’s bloody. Joshua comes into the room, confronting his father, yelling for him to leave his mother alone. In the mist of the melee he finds his father’s gun on the coffee table and eventually shoots him. As the military police are coming through the door, Patrice picks up the gun, runs her hands all over it and clutches it to her chest while Joshua tells them to call his grandfather, Admiral Taylor.
Michael has been out of the military for eight months and now works as the bouncer of a club in Chicago. At 0400 hours (4AM) he receives a phone call from his Admiral telling him he’s calling to cash in the favor Michael offered him. The Admiral has hired a nurse to help with his parents, submitted his resignation to the club, terminated the lease on his apartment, and made arrangements for his car to be shipped to London. All Michael needs to do is pack a back and do his PT (physical training) before his flight at 1700 hours (5PM) taking him to London.
What started out as repaying a debt turns into a love story of epic proportions. An evil so demented it could cost several people their lives and covers a twenty year time frame. The love, devotion and loyalty shown in this book is just awe inspiring to read. I just loved it.
So, this is the story of the alpha male’s (in Angel’s Kiss) mother. This book gives more details of their past and the ending coincides with the ending of Angel’s Kiss. The mother is a strong and passionate woman who will sacrifice anything to keep her son safe. This story does have a plot dealing with domestic abuse so if you have triggers, please read with caution.
EM Shue brings her characters to life in this series and keeps people on the edge of their seats in suspense. I enjoy jumping into her world of hot alpha males with hero complexes, and their strong, passionate female counterparts who fight to make the world a better place for their friends, family, and communities. I laugh, cry, scream, and upon occasion want to reach through my kindle to throttle the characters. Overall, if you enjoy romantic suspense books, this is an amazing series to read.
This was an interesting read. The story was great. The love that developed made the story very interesting. It has great characters. I need to read more of this series from this author.
