She's on the run . . .

Jane Beaumont currently has in her possession: a cat, a hundred grand in cash, and a pistol. She's on her way home to Bay City, Oregon-and away from the nightmare of her violent ex-boyfriend. She'll lay low at Beaumont Body Shop, a car detailer that runs a private investigation agency in the back. The only wrench in her plan is Kage Archer: sexy, strong, and intent on protecting Jane at all costs. She's wanted Kage forever, but putting him in harm's way is not a risk she's willing to take.

He's not going anywhere

Kage is no stranger to the dark side of life, but he's always walked on the right side of the law. Yet when Jane expressed her interest in him years ago, he pushed her away for her own good. Now, after learning of all she's endured, Kage can't leave her side-or hide his need for her. When a frightening situation turns dire, can Kage convince Jane that the safest place to be is in his arms?

My Thoughts

Four alpha possessive in one book?! Count me in! :)

I'm a sucker for TSTL heroines, call me crazy but I liked reading them! ^_^
So while browsing Goodreads, I found this book and almost all the reviewers are talking about how the heroine is a TSTL.. and lucky me.. to also find out that the hero is possessive? *swoons* I couldn't pass this up!

I like the premise of the story, Jane our heroine has been into an abusive relationship for years and decided she couldn't take it anymore so she packed up and returned home where her brother and three other guys can hide her. But one of the guys is Archer...

From the first page of the book, you can already tell that it will be awesome! Well.. I did. O_O
It just grabbed me and I was hooked! I already mentioned this earlier in my previous post, but I do love reading helpless or weak heroine..but I have no like for bitch, whinny stupid ones.. and well, our Jane here is in that category. She was a heroine that is TSTL in a stupid kind of way. :/

“It’ll never happen.”
His gaze intensified. “It’ll happen.”
“I won’t let it.”
He hovered within an inch of her mouth. “It’s already happened. Now you know. Deal with it.”

But despite my issue with the heroine, I love, love Archer! He's dominant, determined and possessive.. more like a caveman kinda hero but I didn't mind that at all! I liked that Archer is not perfect, he has an ugly past and he's having a hard time opening up to anyone. He's selfless and it was really sweet that he's willing to do anything to Jane even if it means dealing with his demons of his own. Gosh.. A swoonworthy hero and I just want to lick him! buahaha!

Anyway, ARCHER is a sweet romantic story with suspense thrown in it! It has ups and downs specially with the pacing.. it wasn't solid but other than that I thoroughly enjoyed this book!

This is a great start to a new series and I'm anticipating Weston's story! ^_^
