In Honeycomb by R.A. Van Vleet, thirty-two-year-old realtor and part-time actress Sam Williams is in danger long before she realizes how precarious her life has become. Unbeknownst to her, two men are surveilling her on the orders of her jealous and manipulative agent, Ray Calderon. Thirty-eight-year-old Ian Martin, working undercover on the Port Hueneme smuggling investigation, crosses paths with Sam in a parking lot while she is searching for her truck. When Sam suddenly turns into him, Ray witnesses the moment and irrationally lashes out, throwing a punch at Ian. Ian defends himself against Ray, which starts a chain reaction that neither Ian nor Sam anticipated. This altercation compromises Ian’s cover when it becomes headline news. With attempts on Ian's and Sam’s lives, Ian must determine whether the threat is from his smuggling case or Ray’s obsession.
The plot in Honeycomb by R.A. Van Vleet is fast-paced, yet it allowed me enough time to process everything at my own pace. The action begins on the first page and continues until the end. The writing style was engaging, and I was hooked from start to finish. With the descriptive details of the events, it was easy to lose myself in Sam's and Ian’s lives. The characters were realistic and relatable. I enjoyed the chemistry between Sam and Ian and could not wait to see where it would take them. The book was beautifully written and had my attention throughout. The twists kept me on the edge of my seat, turning the pages as fast as I could. My thoughts kept returning to this book long after I finished reading it.
