Fresh Fiction Review

In His Keeping
Maya Banks

Reviewed by Teresa Cross

Romance Suspense | Romance Paranormal

Maya Banks exceeds her reputation with her novel IN HIS KEEPING giving her readers all the mouth watering suspense as well as romance that they can consume. Written as the second book from her latest series, Slow Burn, one can still easily follow the lives of the Devereauxs and the complex complications they seem to face with the women they are meant to save. With such a hard book to put down I found myself racing to get home to read a few more chapters before bed, making the last few chapters an "up at all hours of the night type of read," just to finish it. Warning: once you finish IN HIS KEEPING, it leaves you wanting more!

Ariel is a young woman who was raised by caring, loving, parents that would stop at nothing to keep her safe. With a father who takes extreme measures, Ariel grows to find this part of her normal life because of her abilities. But is there more to her abilities than what she is told? A chain of events leave her wondering this as well as leading her to the protection of Devereaux Security and the door of Beau Devereaux. At the same time, Beau finds his attraction to his new client as unexpected as her showing up asking for him by name.

Ariel is one of those main characters that you love because she doesn't really show the kind of weakness most leading female characters usually possesses. Instead, she starts out unsure of herself but then portrays herself as a woman who will stop at nothing to protect and save the ones that she loves. This is what I love about her. Even when Beau becomes her protector, she still has those strong qualities about her. IN HIS KEEPING written by Maya Banks will sure to be a must for any Banks' fans new and old alike.

SUMMARY

#1 bestselling author Maya Banks continues her suspenseful and steamy Slow Burn series with this second book—a twisting tale featuring a strong yet vulnerable heroine in danger and the sexy alpha hero who must save her.

Abandoned as a baby to a young wealthy couple and raised in a world of privilege, Arial has no hint of her past or who she belonged to. Her only link lies in the one thing that sets her apart from everyone else—telekinetic powers. Protected by her adoptive parents and hidden from the public to keep her gift secret, Ari is raised in the lap of luxury, and isolation. That is, until someone begins threatening her life.

Beau Devereaux is no stranger to the strange. As the head of Deveraux Security, he’s more than familiar with the realities of physic powers. So when a family friend approaches him about protecting his daughter, he’s more than ready to jump on board. What Beau isn’t prepared for is the extent of his attraction to his beautiful and powerful client. What began as a simple assignment, just another job, quickly turns personal as Beau discovers he’ll do anything at all to protect Ari. Even if it costs him his life.
