Josephine Jordan delivers spicy romantic suspense in Ready for a Storm. Ava Ellis is slowly rebuilding her acting career and her heart. After returning home from a four-week stint in front of the camera, Ava is looking forward to much-needed rest and quiet. The last thing she expects is to be attacked in her own house and threatened. Her brother, the intended target of the attack, immediately arranges for retired operatives to keep Ava safe. Mason Storm is restless and moody. When the new gig to babysit an entitled actress comes along, his team is excited. What Mason doesn’t expect is discovering that Ava isn’t anything like he imagined, and he finds himself falling for her. And Ava is just as much attracted to Mason.
Author Josephine Jordan has written a superbly suspenseful story with quite a few twists and turns. The two main characters are strong, full of depth, likable, and very relatable. The supporting characters are well-developed and help keep the pace going. Small mannerisms woven into the gripping dialogue will have all the players etched in the reader's mind. Beautifully descriptive scenery with vibrant colors will excite your senses while also aiding in building the plot. Due to its sexual content, Ready for a Storm is recommended for mature readers. These scenes are written with grace and finesse and are by no means overdone. There is also plenty of action and suspense to satisfy readers who enjoy these genres. This is the first book in the Storm Series, and I am eagerly awaiting the next adventure.
