Moving Target: Book Review & Giveaway

Book Description:

Teagan Tate has everything he’s ever wanted, but despite his wild success as a musician and his wild popularity with the ladies, he’s lonely. Meaningless hook-ups are getting old. There is one woman he’s interested in, but she won’t give him the time of day.

Maria Ruiz has no time for men like Teag – men with a revolving bedroom door who are too cocky for their own good. Sure, he has the body of a Greek god and a sexy Aussie accent, but as head of security for his band, Maria won’t risk her professional reputation. And as a woman who’s been there and done that, she won’t risk her heart.

Things take a deadly turn when Teag is the sole surviving witness to a cartel murder. Still recovering from his injuries, he’s forced into hiding with his sexy bodyguard. As their feelings grow into something unexpected and wonderful, a ruthless killer continues to hunt Teag.

​Maria and Teag must rely on each other to stay out of his crosshairs, or they risk losing each other and their chance at love.

My Thoughts

Moving Target is a very quick and enjoyable romantic suspense novel. Though part of a series, it can absolutely be read on its own, as I haven’t read any of the other books. I can tell that the characters from previous stories were involved and I may have understood more of the subtext of the conversations if I had read the entire series, but it’s in no way necessary.

I thought I would have a hard time with this couple given the circumstances surrounding Teag’s injury *awkward* but the story’s build up really helped me to get into these characters. While there is an element of instalove, I’m not entirely sure my impression is accurate. It’s possible these characters have been dancing around each other throughout the series. Guess I will just have to read the others to find out.

The romance scenes were well done and pretty inventive at times given the physical limitations of each person. Gunshot wounds do not make for easy sex. And if anyone thinks that there is no way Teag could be in the mood with his injury, then they have never taken care of a partner after surgery. Somehow, after a time, the body will recover its ability to want those things before even being fully healed. We humans are strange and wonderful creatures.

Anyway, romance lovers will love Moving Target. It can easily be consumed in one sitting and makes for perfect afternoon reading. Enjoy!
