Review: Dangerous Beauty by J.T. Geissinger


A strapping bodyguard and a mysterious beauty on the run cross paths and tempt danger in Cozumel… Dangerous Beauty, an all-new sexy and suspenseful romance from J.T. Geissinger is available now! For Nasir, former Special Ops military man and bodyguard, his new job seems like an easy-money gig: trail a Russian mobster’s runaway wife in Mexico, enjoy the sun, observe, and report. Just one rule: don’t get too close. But it’s all Naz can do not to watch the alluring dancer’s every move. A closer look is irresistible—especially when she’s in trouble. Evalina escaped to the island getaway to live an untraceable life—as far away from the past as she can get. But Eva can’t ignore the dark, muscled stud who rescues her from a drug gang. He says he’s an ex-cop on vacation. When providence throws them together time and again, Eva thinks it’s all a beautiful coincidence. Now she’s giving in to a strange new sensation: trust. But Naz has a mission to accomplish and a secret to keep. Eva has her share of secrets, too. And as the heat flares between them, Naz knows that trust could become the most dangerous impulse of all.

She’s framed in the doorway with the light bright behind her and her face in shadow, her hair a golden corona around her head. A band of tightness settles around my chest. I take a step toward her. She takes a step back. I don’t know what she sees on my face, but her eyes are huge and her pulse is throbbing in the side of her neck. When I take another step and she retreats again, I stop. “Are you afraid of me?” She laughs shakily. “No.” “Then why are you backing up?” “I was hoping I’d be at the wall by now. I need it to hold me up. I’m so excited I think I might faint.” The band around my chest grows tighter. “Stay where you are,” I say, holding her gaze. The eye contact feels like a touch, like an electrical current running on a loop between us. It’s probably close to ninety degrees, but the skin on my arms raises in gooseflesh. As I take another step toward her, she flexes her hands open and draws a breath. She says with quiet wonder, “I can feel my heartbeat in my fingertips.” “I know. Me too.” I advance another step. She’s an arm’s length away. I see it when she begins to tremble. “This must be what a stroke feels like,” she whispers as I reach out and touch her face. “Probably not this good.” I slide my hand into her hair, and she bites her lip. When I move closer, she raises her hands and flattens them on my chest. I know she can feel how hard my heart is pounding. Her breathing is as erratic as mine. “Oh God,” she says faintly. “I really hope this kiss you’re about to give me is as amazing as the pre-kiss. I think my panties just went up in flames.” “Not a good idea to talk to me about your panties right now, sweetheart,” I murmur, brushing my lips over her jaw. “I’m barely in control as it is.” I nuzzle my nose into the soft, sweet spot under her earlobe and drag in a breath scented of her skin. She shudders. I cradle her head in my hands as her fingers dig into my chest. I open my mouth over the pulse in her throat and she moans, low and soft, arching into me. That little moan sets my entire body on fire. With one hand cupped around the back of her head and the other around her jaw, I tilt her head back and fit my mouth to hers. Her lips part. Our tongues touching is an electrical shock. She makes a soft, feminine noise in the back of her throat that makes me feel savage, like an animal. We stand in the gloom and kiss, deep and slow, until the urge to push her against the wall, lift her skirt, and thrust deep inside her is a hot, heady pulse in my veins. She slides her arms up around my shoulders so her breasts press against my chest. I feel her nipples, two hard points in a lush expanse of skin, and groan into her mouth. My dick is so hard it’s throbbing. “I want you to kiss me everywhere,” she whispers, breaking away from my mouth but staying in my arms. She’s panting. Her eyes look glazed. “I want you to take off my clothes and kiss me everywhere like that. Promise me you will.” I huff out a breath that’s part laugh and part groan. “So it measured up to the pre-kiss, huh?” 

Review: I really enjoy J.T. Geissinger's books. She really establishes the story, the characters, and as a result you get to see the delicious slow burn between them. The premise of Dangerous Beauty intrigued me, and I was hooked from the opening page! Nasir has been hired to watch a rich mans wife. As an ex-military man, he is a no-nonsense kind of guy, and he's quick to dismiss Evalina as an expensive plaything. However, after watching her he realizes that there's more to this beauty than meets the eye. Evalina has been on the run fron her old life. She has good reason for leaving it, and has been watching her back ever since. She meets Naz, and feels and instant connection to him, which could bode dangerous for her. As hard as she tries the man intrigues her, and she finds herself falling for him. Naz also cannot help himself be intrigued by this woman. Day by day his feelings for her grow, as does his guilt. He met and befriended her under false pretenses, and finds himself wanting to protect her from those that want to harm her. She becomes more than a job for him and pretty soon shit hits the fan. I didn't know that we'd have a cliffhanger ending, and towards the end I was staring at the pages wondering what in the world had happened. This was a good kind of cliffhanger, and I enjoyed it. I can't wait to see what the author does in the next story.
