An H. I. S. Novel

HIS Desire

Totally Addicted to Reading

Being a tour host for Hot Tree Promotions, I was granted the chance to sign up to be apart of this fabulous tour. When I signed up to read and review this title, I had no idea that this was the author’s debut novel, not that it would have affected my decision either way. My choice was based on the fact that this title came under the romantic suspense genre. By now you can guess I an avid fan of this genre.

On completing this title I have to say that Ms. Kells got it right. ‘H.I.S. Desire’ has the right blend of suspense, action, drama and romance to keep you entertained to the very end. It had me turning the pages as I was eager to find out what was coming next. It had me guessing at every turn as to who the villain was. Just when you think you have it figured out there comes a twist that has you guessing once again. When the villain was revealed I was like WTH! At first I did consider that this person may be guilty, but pushed it aside as I did not think it possible.

The story is well written and the character development is good. The characters were likeable and it was easy to connect with them. They have issues that readers can relate to on some level. The interaction between the main characters is filled with so much sexual tension, it’s a wonder my kindle is still intact. It is clear that Jesse and Kate are attracted to each other, but they are not willing to give into their attraction. Jesse was not looking for a long term relationship. He was afraid to give his heart, having suffered the loss of his wife under tragic circumstances. Jesse blamed himself for the loss and as a result, he felt compelled to protect Kate at all cost. Kate is independent and is used to fending for herself as such she was not too inclined to have Jesse shadowing her every move in a bid to protect her. There were times when her stubbornness proved to be detrimental to her and others around her. It was good to see her coming to grips with the fact that Jesse was only trying to keep her safe and it was not his intention to make her life uncomfortable.

This book is the first in the H.I.S series and it can be read as a standalone. This is a great start to the series and I can’t wait to see what next Ms. Kell has in store for her fans.
