I am a huge fan of Grace/KD and was giddy when I found out she was writing a 4th part to the Executive Decision Trilogy and that it was to be Wade Crittenden's story.

Wade - nerd, socially awkward, rude, mucked up in the head genius behind Pheuma Inc.
Carla - feisty, independent, her fathers daughter, brilliant investigative journalist

Put the two together and the world tilts on it's axis. This book was fast paced, starting with a rescue for a kidnap victim and heading quickly into a stalker who it would appear is just as clever as Wade. A page turner for sure, I even thought I had solved the 'who dun it' aspect of the story ..... was kinda right but totally sucked at the why!

I really loved the chemistry between Carla & Wade - they way they talk to one another, they way they love. I am so glad Wade found someone to truly love him and all his baggage.

Copy kindly received from the author/publisher in exchange for an honest review.

This book made my heart soar, my pulse almost burst out of my veins and my face ache from smiling.
Wade is a brilliant, reclusive genius with a fair amount of baggage. Carla is a feisty, no-nonsense journalist. The chemistry between the two is explosive. The story pounds along, keeping you guessing and second guessing the whole way. Stalking, kidnapping - this book kept me rapt from beginning to end. Move over every other book boyfriend, Wade Crittenden has arrived!

How to write a sizzler of a story:
Take one part of tall, dark and reclusive millionaire who likes to go bowling alone on Monday mornings, stir in another part in-your-face intrepid female reporter who never gives up until she gets her story and shake it up with a killer who has a score or two to settle.

The result is a steamy and suspenseful tale that takes you on a fast-paced ride and keeps you turning the pages. Although I didn't warm up to Wade at the start, I eventually did. He and Carla totally sizzled. The suspense is well done and really kept my interest.

I haven't read the Executive Decisions Trilogy but this can be read as a standalone. The book is easy to recommend. You won't want to put it down. Go and grab your copy.

Intense, Passionate and Suspenseful!

Just wow! This is the first book that I have read by Grace Marshall and it is a downright sexy and compelling read, with an unlikely hero and a feisty heroine and plenty of suspense, which kept me on the edge of my seat.

The book, which can be read as a stand-alone, is the fourth instalment of the Executive Decisions Trilogy. I have not read the trilogy, but after reading this I am planning on rectifying this oversight very shortly!

There are just so many words to describe this read: fast-paced; intense; humorous; psychological; dark and sexy, to name just a few! I loved the characters of Wade and Carla and their journey as they open up to each other and work to avert the danger that Carla is in from her stalker.

Wade is at first glance one of the most unlikely heroes ever – the geek genius and recluse behind the success of the high tech security firm he works for – but hell, he is damn sexy! The heroine, Carla, a journalist, is determined to interview him, to reveal the man behind the mask and I really enjoyed how she gets right under his skin to secure her goal. The couple rub each other up the wrong way but the sexual tension and the chemistry between them is electrifying and there are plenty of hot scenes, some of which have some dark elements. I was enthralled throughout and eager to find out if Wade would open his heart and reveal his true self to Carla. The war he wages with himself: his desire to avoid close companionship versus the growing attraction between him and Carla, as he seeks to protect her from her stalker, is at the core of the novel.

Carla is a super heroine. She is brave and feisty and although she knows exactly what buttons to press to get Wade riled she also knows when to give him his space. Yet how can she cope with his mercurial behaviour, which sees him pull her towards him only to then reject her? Is he the right man for her? There is much to sort out in their relationship that is if Carla survives her stalker…. I was biting my nails at the end with fear and apprehension as the plot unfolded towards its gripping finale.

A must read for fans of romance and romantic suspense. I loved it!Please note a copy of this novel was given to me by the author for the purpose of a fair and honest review.

Interviewing Wade by Grace Marshall
Oh this was a perfect story for Wade. The poor guy has always been alone and always wanted to be. What he never thought would happen, happened with one of the most stubborn bullheaded woman he has ever known. Carla. I have been waiting for this story to come out since The Exhibition ended. I had a feeling something was going to happen with these two. Sure he is stubborn as all get out but he has the biggest heart and I am glad Carla got to bring that out in him. There are always ups and down but what story doesn’t have them? It makes the story oh so better. I loved this story! If you have read the first three in this series you will want to read this one ASAP. I received this book as a gift from the author for an honest review.

***I was gifted a copy by the author, for an honest review*** (no spoilers)
Wow! Even though I didn't read the Executive Decision Trilogy, this book can surely be read as a stand alone and boy did it deliver!!!
My heart was racing through this whole book. It had me on the edge of my seat the whole way and I could not put it down! It is very well written, fast paced and high energy for sure. Wade Crittenden and Carla Flannery have a chemistry that is amazing. As I was reading and they were bantering back and forth, I could picture it happening and chuckled to myself several times. This book has humor, kidnapping, stalking, sex (sizzling sex to be exact) and thriller type action all rolled into one. I absolutely loved it!!!
Go get your copy now!!!! It will not disappoint!!

This is honestly one of my favourite erotic pieces of all time, and believe me- I've read a few, lol. The hero's personality was super unconventional for this type of novel and completely worked with Carla. Explosive chemistry, fantastic read!
