Keep Me Closer

Romance Contemporary

KEEP ME CLOSER is book two of the Dangerous Tides Series from Rhyannon Byrd. This series is a stand along, so you don't need to read them in order. KEEP ME CLOSER is Alex and Brit's story.

Five years after the end of his marriage, Alex Hudson had closed off his heart and tried to keep the world away. His past has left him so jaded that he believes that he is better off without any romantic complications. However, when he lays eyes on a beautiful redhead, his only known defense is to be mean and push her away instead of dealing with the feelings that she stirs up in him.

Therapist Brit Cramer has seen her fair share of violence and knows how to handle it. When a former patient targets Brit, and tries to kidnap her, she finds help in the last place she ever expected...Alex. Brit has been attracted to Alex since the first time they met years ago, but Alex hasn't made it easy for anyone to be around him.

As her former patient's actions escalates showing he will stop at nothing to get to Brit, Alex moves her into his condo in order to protect her. But having her there, makes it harder for him to ignore the stirring of emotions inside of him. When evidence reveals that her home and office are no longer safe, the pair realize that their time together is running out.

I really enjoyed KEEP ME CLOSER. This year I have read few books that could suck me into the storyline and be finished in under twenty-four hours. This is one of those books.

Rhyannon Byrd's writing style has the ability to suck the reader into the story and falling in love with her characters. When Brit and Alex finally give in to their physical attraction, it is explosive. KEEP ME CLOSER is full of suspense and steamy romance. Rhyannon Byrd is a new author for me, but she will certainly be on my go to list from now on.

SUMMARY

From Rhyannon Byrd, author of Take Me Under, comes yet another sizzling, sensual tale of intrigue, passion, and the most dangerous risk of all…

Five years after the end of his marriage and his career as a detective, Alex Hudson wears a permanent suit of armor to keep the world at bay. Now a PI in South Florida, he believes that he’s better off free of romantic complications—even if a certain beautiful redhead makes him sweat with little more than a look. But he’s determined to steer clear of women and the trouble they bring. Until trouble comes uninvited...

Renowned therapist Brit Cramer has seen her fair share of violence and knows how to handle it. But when a former patient targets Brit as his feminine “ideal,” she finds help in the last place she ever expected—the tall, dark, outrageously sexy Alex Hudson, who saves her from a violent attack. Brit’s been powerfully attracted to Alex from the moment they first met several years ago, but she knew better than to do more than enjoy the view…

The initial uncertainty they both feel shatters in the face of a searing, absolute desire, but their time is running out as they find themselves caught in the sights of a madman who will stop at nothing to get what he wants. Before they know it, they’re fighting not only for their lives, but for the possibility that they may have both found exactly what they’ve always wanted and needed...in each other.
