Amazing debut outing from Author Imogen Wells!!
Wow! If I didn’t know for sure that Imogen Wells was a debut author, I wouldn’t have believed that this was her first book. Her writing is completely descriptive and witty without onerously boring detail, and I was addicted from the word go. I begrudged every interruption called life and work that came between me and my goal to get this book read!
I’m not going to comment on the blurb except to say this romantic suspense was one well put together book that hooked me from the start. Holy crap on a cracker, it was amazing and there was no stone left unturned, the smallest details were important, and nothing went unnoticed.
Camryn Moore was a woman to be admired. While she saw herself as damaged and unlovable, Ms Wells honoured her survival story with enough heart-breaking detail for us to absolutely appreciate her bravery while letting us see the true psychotic depravity of the man she’d mistakenly assumed had initially loved her. He treated women like cattle to be abused, traded and sold, and he treated Camryn the same way. But, after aid in escaping, through unconditional support, counselling, and understanding love from someone who’s on been on a similar road of loss, it was awesome to see movement toward healing.
I could go on forever about Ryder ‘Blue’ Hawkins. Risk is written my favourite dual POV and I loved being in his head as he changed from being ambivalent about a job to caring about the woman in his protection and passionate about her survival. I’ll even admit, I most adored this ex-military man when he let his inner demons run free in one scene. His background of loss and trauma puts him in the unique position to understand much of what Camryn has been through; to a point. The rest he will work with his guys to raze the perpetrators to the ground.
The chemistry, the steam, the suspense and romance, Imogen Wells has truly packed a punch and put her best literary foot forward in her first published outing, and I highly recommend that anyone who loves reading gets in at the ground floor of this debut author’s journey. She’s already working on book two, and I know I’m not the only one hounding her for more words. 5 Stars! 🖤
