False Security unfolds the romance between Wynn, a pastry shop owner based in Indigo Valley, and Foster, a bodyguard working for Vegas Securities. It is also packed with lots of suspense and action.
Wynn is smart and hard-working, but very unlucky. I really feel bad that she cannot find happiness in love, family, and work. Not to mention her trust issues. I was intrigued as to how she will embrace romance when it finally comes her way. During the first half, I felt like, for someone who hates liars, her trust can easily be turned on and off. But maybe, Wynn is just inherently understanding and kind-hearted. (3/5)
Foster is very sweet and endearing. No doubt, he has the mind and the heart of a good bodyguard. However, he tends to be impulsive and quick-tempered, and this naturally invites trouble. Also, he built a wall to avoid being close to his new principal, but it easily crumbles as he got to know Wynn better. He is just too cute! (4/5)
False Security was the first novel I read with two first person POVs. It felt weird having to switch POVs every other chapter. Personally, I think it could still be as effective, and even more fluid, if it was written in third person omniscient. Their dialogues and actions were clearly written. I felt like I was there, watching their every movement and hearing them talk with each other. However, I felt their descriptions were lacking. Wynn is beautiful. Foster is sexy. But I could not get a clear picture of how they actually look like. (3/5)
I was not able to solve the mystery correctly, which is a good point. There were two revelations. The first was okay, but I was dumbstruck by the last. It was too crazy for my liking. (3/5)
Will Wynn and Foster get their HEA? I was impressed by how their story was wrapped up, it was just fitting. Great job, Ms. Blaze! (4/5)
Read False Security if:
- you love bodyguards
- you love suspense / action
- you are looking for a fast-paced read
This book might not be for you if:
- you want to cry your eyes out / laugh your head off
- you are looking for hot, steamy scenes
***I received a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinion.***
