REVEALED TO HIM is Book 3 in Jen Frederick's Kerr
Chronicles series. Although it is part of a series, I
think REVEALED TO HIM works as a stand-alone novel.
Although this is the first book I've read by Jen
Frederick, I thoroughly enjoyed it, and it will
definitely not be my last. I love this book!
There are so many things to savor about REVEALED TO HIM.
REVEALED TO HIM is a deeply erotic love story wrapped
around a chilling mystery. Veteran and private detective
Jake Tanner is brought into writer and recluse Natalie
Beck's life when fear is holding her hostage. Due to a
stalker, Natalie opts to be a prisoner in her own home.
Jake is called in to make her home more secure as well as
to find out who the bad guy is. I adore the romance that
develops between Natalie and Jake. The flirty texts,
emails, and phone calls before actually meeting, create
lots of sexual tension. I like having the story told from
both perspectives. Once Natalie and Jake finally do get
together, their passion is fiery and intense.
Natalie's feelings of isolation and, at times, paranoia
are evocative of the film "Gaslight." Jen Frederick does
a great job of capturing the feeling of being closed in
and drowning in fear. Natalie is a complex character --
extremely fragile, yet a woman who wants and tries to
overcome her agoraphobia. Both main characters are
multifaceted and sympathetic. Although Jake has some
synthetic limbs, Natalie's psychological issues prove
more problematic. However, I like the skillful way that
Jen Frederick has Jake eventually realize he hasn't fully
come to terms with losing his limbs.
REVEALED TO HIM has everything I want in a romantic
suspense novel -- a sexy yet sweet commanding hero, a
knockout thrilling mystery, and a red-hot romance combo. The
mystery surrounding Natalie's stalker and the passionate
romance she has with Jake take up equal space in REVEALED
TO HIM. After reading REVEALED TO HIM, I plan on hunting
down the previous two books in this series to devour them
as well. I eagerly await the next book in this Kerr
Chronicles series by Jen Frederick!
Handsome and tough Jake Tanner, a veteran and the owner of a
successful security firm, never lets his past hold him back.
Despite his prosthetic hand and foot, women swoon over him—and
with him between the sheets. Yet Jake feels bored and restless…
until he’s hired to protect a beautiful writer whose life is in
terrible danger.
Self-imprisoned by the fear of the anonymous stalkers who
threaten her life, video-game writer Natalie Beck now only
dreams of the world outside her pink-bedecked apartment.
Trusting people again is off-limits. But the more time Jake
spends with her, the more his professional commitment evolves
from simple duty to scorching desire. While deeply sensual
sparks ignite between the two, the danger outside circles
closer. Will Jake’s intense devotion be enough to save Natalie?
Or will she turn away from the one man willing to do anything to
save her?a
