Mace and Jessa have been married for six years. Coming back from a black op assignment that could have taken Jess’s life, they decide to start a family. Unfortunately, there are villains from their past that refuse to let them find their happy ever after.
Novellas are always a tricky thing for me. Rarely do I find one that feels like a complete story and that I’m not being short changed. Save Me had everything I absolutely love in not only a full length book, but in a novella. Because this couple are already together when this story begins, I immediately felt the deep connection between Mace and Jessa. And holy geez, was it intense! I kept thinking over and over, this is romance.
Mace was perfection and everything I crave in a hero. Despite the fact that Jessa is just as capable as Mace, his number one goal is to protect her under any circumstance even at the cost of his own life. I mean, come on. That’s the kind of hero I absolutely adore! Jessa, being a kicka$$ heroine, might have been hard and controlling, less likely to let him lead the way. But she was not. She yielded to him because he filled her every need. Together they were dynamite as they united to fight the bad guys. Totally equal grounds for these two while they worked.
The epilogue filled my heart even as that last line made me wonder what this author has prepared for future books.
It’s safe to say I loved it all!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Save Me is a romantic suspense novella by Tia Louise. I won this book in a giveaway!
Jessa Steele is an undercover operative working deep in the jungles of the Columbian cartel. Her orders at the end of the assignment are to shoot to kill. But before that moment had arrived, she found herself face to face with the most beautiful eyes she had ever seen.
Mason “Mace” Moscaretti was an agent for the CIA. While on a mission to capture an infamous drug lord, he met the woman who would become his life, his reason for living, Jessa. His orders were to bring the drug lord in so he could be prosecuted.
Fast forward six years and Mace and Jessa are happily married. Both left their positions and started a business together. They couldn’t be happier, their love continues to grow each and every day. They’ve decided to take some time off and start a family. Only, one more job presents itself, a job that Jessa doesn’t want to say no to.
There is so much packed into this little book. Mace and Jessa are so in love and their love came through the pages like crazy. These two managed to burn up the pages with their chemistry. The book starts right off with a huge intense scene and that most definitely is not the only one. This is going to keep you on the edge of your seat flipping the pages as fast as your eyes will let you.
Tia has fast become one of my favorite authors. I love the diversity of her books, she has something for everyone. This is one of those books that is a quick read with a lasting impact. I hope you love it as much as I did.
This was a brilliant, beautifully dark mix of breathless suspense and unbearably erotic scenes that totally blew my mind. There's one scene at the end where I wanted to die of the sheer emotional overload and I love, love, loved it. The wow-meter on this book goes to eleven. I love Tia's contemporary books so much...but omg I had no idea she could write badass romantic suspense like this! This is me totally glomming her RS backlist.
Damn! I really, really enjoyed this one! It's a novella, but still it felt complete. It wasn't too short or too long. It was the exact length it needed to be! Save Me was intense, sexy, suspenseful and fast-paced! I definitely recommend this one if you're in the mood for any of the things listed above.
Mason and Jessa, gah! This was fun. This was a real fun read.
Wow this story packs a big punch in a little package! Even though this is a novella, it is a complete standalone story! I always want more of Tia Louise’s stories but this one didn’t leave me with an incomplete feeling at the end like most novellas do. There is a ton of quick action, there is a TON of steam, and a ton of love! I fell for Mace and Jessa instantly and hard! Great book overall! 💗
Wow, so much packed into one novella!! This was a brilliant read, action packed, fast paced, sinfully hot with Jessa and Mace having such a beautifully intimate, trusting and loving connection, they really were the perfect ones for each other!!
Military trained and having met each other on a job and fell in love, who wouldn't their other half at their back during a mission?? But they are looking to get out and start a family, but someone from Jessa's past has different ideas and they find themselves stuck right in the thick of it.
I absolutely loved this couple and the connection the felt for each other. Mace is so very alpha and dominant and so very protective of his wife, yet Jessa is strong and more than capable of handling anything thrown her way, but only with Mace is she able to let her vulnerable side out.
There are some good plot twists and part of the story was quite emotional, you could feel Jessa's anguish!!
Fast paced with plenty of action, with some hot sexy couple scenes, there was a lot in her for a novella! There's definitely scope for more from this couple, I loved them!!
Stand-alone novella. Release: July 25, 2018 Blurb: Jessa Steele shoots to kill. She does not fall in love. She does not get captured. Mason “Mace” Moscaretti can retrieve the worst of the worst. No capo or drug lord is too clever to escape him. When he meets Jessa embedded deep with a Colombian target, he’s determined to capture her heart and walk away from active duty. And he does.

Can I please have more of Jessa and Mace? PLEASE!! These two characters… this couple… they were absolutely amazing!! Not only were they heroes to so many people who couldn’t defend themselves, selfless in their determination to rid the world of evildoers, but their devotion to one another was an entity unto itself.
Military and CIA trained, these people were destined for each other. Meeting in the rubble of a mission, they virtually fell in love at first sight. Righting wrongs, infiltrating criminal organizations, and dodging bullets… who better to have your six than the person you love most in the world? Their innate trust in one another and their love for one another leaked from the pages of this book and I could not get enough of them.
The author did an incredible job of bringing Jessa and Mace to life. She did such a great job that I’m hoping she’ll create another story for them. These assassins got their happy ending and I’d love to see their happily ever after.

This book was just brilliant. It was hot crazy scary and twists al over the place. I can't actually believe that all that happened in a short book. I gripped from the start to the end. Both characters were so great and brilliant at there job. But things were changing for them. They had been assassin for a long time and work black ops well. They had put there lives on hold well Jessa had but it was time to make plans to start a family. This would make a big difference in there life's but they ready. They just didn't know that things were goin to get in there way.
This book was so hot. Jessa and Mason were a great couple. I luvd how they met it was sexy. Mason is a very alpha man and will protect Jessa no matter what no will get near his woman if u can help it. Jessa is just as protective with Mason. They are such a strong unit.
I did get a lil stressed through this book. The twists had me wanting to scream at my kindle. I couldn't believe what happened even though I knew there was goin to be twists I just couldn't help it. I couldn't get enough of this book, I m actually alway left wanting more in short books but I wasn't with this. The story was packed full with everything. I would still luv more from these characters but the author did a brilliant job covering everything. I m a huge fan of this author so I m not surprised how much I luvd it. I would highly recommend it.

Jessa and Mace are a killer husband and wife team who are retiring from active duty to start a family... only someone from Jessa's past isn't willing to let her go. Whee!!!
*SAVE ME was formerly ONLY available in the US as an eBook as part of the Fiona Davenport "Passion, Vows, and Babies" Kindle World. It's been revised and updated and is a SAFE, stand-alone romance with NO cheating and NO cliffhangers!
4.5 Mission Impossible Love Stars * * * * 1/2 Spoiler Free-It's Live!!! I am going to date myself... I remember the original TV show Mission Impossible. Yes there was something before the Tom Cruise franchise. This original show was ground-breaking and always had everyone on the edge of their seats when they watched. You never knew what was the real purpose, what was going to happen and there were all sorts of twists, changes and solid endings galore. There was a reason it had a loyal following and had held up over the years in re-runs and rebirth.
Tia Louise has taken the thrills and edge of seat feel from that type of vehicle and injected a serious love story between these two thrill seekers and dedicated agents of good. Jessa Steele and Mason “Mace” Moscaretti met under the most intense circumstances. They both had the same target in their plans and after the completion of taking down a huge drug cartel, they joined forces in more ways than one...
Their love story is epic and they have been working together to battle all sorts of drug cartels and other shady ventures. Jessa is Mason's equal and Mace glories in it. They live on the edge of life...feeling everything fully... which also means doing everything fully...loving each other fully...
And the time has come for them to make their own family...Jessa wants to step away from being active in their security operation for awhile... Making a baby is serious business...
But there is one more assignment Jessa needs to do... A lost young girl, a memory of who she once was...
This novella had all of the thrills and excitement of an action packed movie...with all of the sexy times Tia Louise is known for...This rocked off the pages and I could not get over how much detail, feelings and edge of seat feels I felt.
I would grab this and think the Mission Impossible theme laced with whatever sexy music that gets you going... You will be captured and happy for it.
~~~~~ Before Reading ~~~~~ Lots to consider...Much to learn... and only the Tia Louise way!!!! ❤️❤️❤️ ❤️❤️❤️ ❤️❤️❤️ ❤️❤️❤️ You know when something is so good... So steamy and action packed... It must take on a life of its own...

SHE is pulled back in...Lured for another mission... Only this time the target is not planning to allow anyone to answer her pleas to...
Save Me-July 26, 2018 Re-Release
A gifted copy was provided by author/publisher for an honest review.
At last a book to get me out of my book funk. I really love a read where the characters are already in an established relationship, it's solid and they are totally gone for each other and Save Me had all this and more. It was a fast paced read without feeling rushed, it was well fleshed out with action packed suspense and oh man, I LOVE the way Mase and Jessa loved each other.
It was the perfect novella to while away a couple of hours on a lazy Sunday afternoon.
Here we have the introduction of Fiona Davenports's Sex,Vows,& Babies Kindle World series with Tia Louis's contribution...her story of Jessa and Mace.
Both Jessa and Mace have had their fair share of excitement. They met deep undercover in the midst of the dangerous Columbian cartel and have since found a relationship and sense of safety with one another. Happily married they continue to work in tandem, bringing down the bad guys. It is only a matter of time before it is time to walk away from the direct line of fire in hopes a new adventure, parenthood.
Save Me is fast.! It is an action packed, hot as hell romance. If the adrenaline from hanging from two stories as a sniper isn't enough for you, well then there is always the post-operation sex that is primal and amazing.
It is not a full length novel but a complete novella with suspense and danger, emotional heartbreak and sweetness and beyond scorching intimacy. I felt completely connected with both characters in just a short amount of time. Truth be told, I could easily read another 200 some pages of Jessa and Mace. While I know that babies are in the future...their tandem assassin skills are awesome to read. There is nothing better than a strong, smart woman standing beside that alpha!
Empieza bastante bien, la trama es parecida a otras que he leido pero con un toque diferente, pero segun fueron pasando las paginas decayo estrepitosamente.
En primer lugar, no me convencio la estructura de el libro, de vez en cuando metian flasbacks que me sacaban de la lectura, creo que hubiese quedado mejor si esos saltos temporales hubiesen estado mas " ordenados " por decirlo de alguna manera, y en segundo lugar, las escenas de accion no brillan en lo absoluto, creo que la autora se " emociono " de mas y escribio unos instantes de accion mas propios de una pelicula de Hollywood que de un supuesto suspense romantico como este, verdaderamente esas descripciones me dieron verguenza ajena.
En fin, una historia rapida de leer, de haber tenido esos detalles mejor desarrollados creo que se hubiera convertido en un libro bastante mas memorable.
3.5 stars. Ok so I loved Mace. He was amazing, possessive and a real man in every sense of the word and he loved Jessa wholeheartedly. Now Jessa got on my nerves a bit. She’s supposed to be this highly trained agent that has been bringing down the bad guys for years. Yet every decision she made in this book was stupid and almost cost her or Mace to die. Even when she had a bad feeling about a situation, instead of stepping back and coming at it from a different direction, she would jump in with both feet and drag Mace right along with her. Other than that she was a likable character and she loved Mace the same way that he loved her. I definitely need to try more books by this author if Mace is the type of hero she writes about.
“I love as strong as she is, as fierce, she’ll still submit to me. She gives her body to me in a way that only fuels my desire.”
A sexy and sinful delight! This quick and suspenseful novella packed one hell of an emotional punch! I loved it! Tia Louise always brings her A-GAME, whether she produces a 100 page novella or a full blow sexy novel. Jessa and Mace captivated me instantly. I felt their connection, their scorching HOT chemistry…it was an absolute thrill to tag along on their journey. If you’re needing a steamy page-turner of a read to get you out of whatever funk you’re in, SAVE ME is the romance for you! You’ll devour it quickly, love it fondly, and feel it immensely. Be sure to keep this one close, as you’ll more than likely want to read it over and over again!
"Risk your life like that again, and I'll tan your hide." "Watch what you promise."
Watch out, Mr. and Mrs. Smith! There's a new team in town!
Jessa Steel and Mace Mosceretti are not only a team when it comes to chasing the bad guys, but they are also a team in life. Being married has its challenges, but nothing could compare with putting their lives in danger with the past that refuses to stay away.
Tia Louise gives us a wonderful novella about love, determination, and the willingness to always have each other's back.
I didn't want Jessa and Mace's story to end!! I want more! It was so good!!
This book was just brilliant. It was hot crazy scary and twists al over the place. I can't actually believe that all that happened in a short book. I gripped from the start to the end. Both characters were so great and brilliant at there job. But things were changing for them. They had been assassin for a long time and work black ops well. They had put there lives on hold well Jessa had but it was time to make plans to start a family. This would make a big difference in there life's but they ready. They just didn't know that things were goin to get in there way.
This book was so hot. Jessa and Mason were a great couple. I luvd how they met it was sexy. Mason is a very alpha man and will protect Jessa no matter what no will get near his woman if u can help it. Jessa is just as protective with Mason. They are such a strong unit.
I did get a lil stressed through this book. The twists had me wanting to scream at my kindle. I couldn't believe what happened even though I knew there was goin to be twists I just couldn't help it. I couldn't get enough of this book, I m actually alway left wanting more in short books but I wasn't with this. The story was packed full with everything. I would still luv more from these characters but the author did a brilliant job covering everything. I m a huge fan of this author so I m not surprised how much I luvd it. I would highly recommend it.
Re read 22/07/2018
Reading a second time is just has good as the first. I really luv these characters Jesse and Mason are brilliant and so hot together it was great to get more of them. The story is short and sexy what more could you want.
The writing and storytelling in this novella is arguably even better than the storyline itself. And the storyline is pretty damn intoxicating. I'm blown away by the writing prowess of Tia Louise. As a reader who's only read two of her stories, I feel deprived. I feel ashamed. This gorgeous writing has existed out there in the world, and I've somehow been missing the boat until now. No more. I'm addicted. I was just as lost in this author's luminous writing style as I was in this riveting storyline. And now all I can think of is how desperate I am for more.
SAVE ME is exciting and suspenseful, an action packed romance set against the dangerous, sultry backdrop of drug cartels and kidnappings, bullets and crime lords. I was so immersed in this story, I never wanted it to end. I felt every nuance of both the threat of danger and the all consuming passion between Mason and Jessa. I felt the palpable ferocity of their love just as profoundly as I could taste the fear and danger that lurked on every page.
Save Me is exactly what I needed just now and didn't even know it. This refreshing change of pace is packed with edge-of-your-seat suspense while remaining deliciously romantic and SMOKING hot all at once. I couldn't get enough. The chemistry between this couple juxtaposed with their death defying career path is a decadent treat for the senses. It's fiery. It's sensual. It's fiercely addictive and it tugs brutally at the heartstrings when things go wrong. And it's all packaged so perfectly in a novella you can easily devour in one sitting. What an emotional, heart stopping love story this was. I so desperately hope there's more to come from badass Jessa and her hot commando husband because SAVE ME was a deliciously satisfying taste and I'd really love some more.
Talk about a fast and furious ride! I am not familiar with the world where these characters come from but I don't have to be. Ms. Louise writes so that you don't have to know anything about them to get who they are and how deeply devoted they are to one another. Jessa and Mason are semi retired assassins. They have started their own business after working for the government. One of Jessa's past assignments comes back to haunt them and get revenge. They must work through pain and despair to come back to each other. I loved the fast pace of the story and couldn't not stop turning the pages. Ms. Louise definitely knows how to do that to me.
This was a wonderful fun, short read!! I loved Mace and Jess!! Their story is action packed and unique! I couldn’t put it down! I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own
Save me is a novella but by the punch it packs you would never know..it's intriguing, suspenseful, red hot and with amazing characters. Jessa and Mace made their passionate relationship work alongside their very dangerous careers..now they want to start a family but their last assignment might cost them everything. I was immediately intrigued and couldn't put it down. loved every second
Wow!! This was an action packed novella. From the opening scene to the last one these characters are put through the ringer. Jessa and Mace were a beautiful couple, you really felt their connection to each other. Add in drug cartels, explosions, gunfights and seriously hot chemistry and you have a great fast paced read.
When I first read the info for this book I knew I’d have to sign up. A book about agents, a husband and wife duo, oh yes please. There’s nothing more amazing than seeing a husband and wife team up and fight evil together and that’s exactly what this book is.
Mace and Jessa are a badass duo, meeting each other on a job had them falling in love at first sight and there’s been no turning back for them. They’re it for each other and the love they share is beautiful.
After taking up another job, a last job things don’t quite go as planned and that’s where the shit hits the fan, everything goes wrong and seeing Jessa battle her way through everything is, just wow.
As soon as I started this book I knew I couldn’t stop until it was finished. Their story pulled me in and I couldn’t help it fall into their world and experience them.
Save Me is a short read but it’s packed with a whole lot of sexiness and a badass power couple that leave you in awe. I would love to read more about these two in the future.
Where do I begin.....Lets start with the fact that this is a married couple that fights crime together. I haven't read many books about established couples let alone a couple that goes into the dark underbelly of the world to rid us of the scum that walks the earth so right away I was intrigued. When I found out that she was on an undercover mission with the CIA when they met that grabbed me even more, but what was the final pull for me was the fact that he stood by her and let her do what she needed to do without going all alpha male on her. I loved that so much because she was one tough woman and he showed that he had faith in her capabilities by working along side her instead of bossing her around. Mason gets major points for that because you know that cannot be easy for a man like him.
Jessa, strong and capable of bringing down the most feared men but one thing I didn't like about her was she made a MAJOR life changing decision without talking to her husband first. I had an issue with this because it has an impact on his life as well not just hers and I thought it was a bit selfish of her to do things without his knowledge, but things worked out and there wasn't even a little bit of angst over it...just totally my own hangup about it.
Although we have our HEA I am really hoping that the author will give us more of this power duo. I highly recommend this story to anyone that is looking for a quick read that is not only spicy in and out of the bedroom but also enjoys a good romantic suspense because this book will have you rooting for the good guys even when things don't look like they are going to end well. Happy Reading!!!
You can see this and other Reviews I have written along with various cover reveals, excerpts, and giveaways here Nadine's Obsessed with Books
When Jessa is saved during her undercover op, the man who saved her becomes more than just her savior, he becomes her everything - her husband, her soul mate, her protector.
Mason "Mace" Moscaretti is a warrior and a savior. When he and his special forces team saved Jessa, he gave her his heart. Now years later, they're married, about to start a family, and their connection is even stronger, even more electric than the day they met deep in South America. They've founded their own private security company and things are even more wonderful than they had ever imagined. Until they're offered one last job, a job Jessa just has to take. But what neither knows is that someone is hunting them. Will Mace have to save Jessa again? Or will Jessa save herself? Will they make it out of this one last job together, safe, and ready to finally start that family they want?
My God, Tia always writes the hell out of romantic suspense (out of everything, actually), but she's raised the bar with Save Me. For a short novella, there's a lot packed into its pages, and it's got the feel of a novel with how complete and well-rounded this story is. It's super, super sexy, edgy and full of suspense and intrigue. I was dying through each page wondering how these two were going to make it out, IF they were going to make it out. Mace and Jessa are on a short list of my favorite book couples now cuz hot damn, these two are fire!
Tia Louise is a new author to me and I'm so happy to have this book land in my lap. I whizzed through this book losing sleep and all sense of time and couldn't be happier.
Jessa is the epitome of everything we want our daughter to become. She's strong, loving and badass. Her character had my emotions reeling.
Mace is definitely my newest book boyfriend. He is everything I never knew I wanted and needed. You only need to read a little to get hooked on him.
Together this duo fights crime, kicks butt and balances their marriage to boot. From page one I was hooked and I'm definitely craving more. Way to go Tia and I cant wait to read more.
