bestselling author Maya Banks continues her suspenseful and steamy Slow Burn
trilogy with this second book-a twisting tale featuring a strong yet vulnerable
heroine in danger and the sexy alpha hero who must save her.
Abandoned
as a baby to a young wealthy couple and raised in a world of privilege, Arial
has no hint of her past or who she belonged to. Her only link lies in the one
thing that sets her apart from everyone else—telekinetic powers. Protected by
her adoptive parents and hidden from the public to keep her gift secret, Ari is
raised in the lap of luxury, and isolation. That is, until someone begins
threatening her life.
Beau
Devereaux is no stranger to the strange. As the head of Deveraux Security, he’s
more than familiar with the realities of physic powers. So when a family friend
approaches him about protecting his daughter, he’s more than ready to jump on
board. What Beau isn’t prepared for is the extent of his attraction to his
beautiful and powerful client. What began as a simple assignment, just another
job, quickly turns personal as Beau discovers he’ll do anything at all to
protect Ari. Even if it costs him his life.
My Review: I received this book from the author in exchange for an honest review
In His Keeping is a romantic suspense with lots of action and a paranormal twist. I didn't read book 1 in the series, but after reading this one, I'm very curious about Caleb and Ramie's story. I loved the way the story started, loved the scenes between main character Arial's parents. They were far and away my favorite part of the book.
Arial had been sheltered by her parents her entire life due to her unusual abilities and the past that threatened to hunt her down. Though spoiled and naive, she was fiercely loyal to her parents. When her parents were taken, she would do anything to save them. The author really pounded this fact in, page after page, chapter after chapter. Arial loved her parents and would do anything to save them.
Beau was the ultimate alpha male: strong, silent, gruff, but willing to do anything for those he loves. Which was great for Arial since this man fell for her instantly. I don't really mind insta-love, and this was certainly the king of all insta-love. Under immense pressure, I understand why Arial would cling to Beau-- he became her world and her only hope.
This novel featured lots of action and suspense. Just the desire to know who was after Arial was enough to keep the pages turning. Since I liked her parents so much, I really wanted to know what happened to them. The romance between Beau and Arial was steamy and hot. The only thing that bugged me was the overall redundancy I mentioned above. I felt like the author was writing for someone with short-term memory loss. Overall, I enjoyed this story-- loved the paranormal aspect and the action-packed plot.

Those are my two favorites too :) Have a good weekend!!
DeleteIt's funny because from the sound of this I wouldn't have expected for there to be a paranormal twist. Glad you still liked it even though you hadn't read them in consecutive order!
