Testing the Limits:
Summary:
From goodreads.com
Wanting him was wrong, but it felt so right…
Social worker Quinn Keller sees the best in people…and the
worst. When she rescues a prominent businessman's battered wife, Quinn is
targeted by the woman's violent husband. Her only option is to place her safety
in the hands of Ranger Jace Hyland—tattooed, scarred, incredibly hot…and the
brother of Quinn's deceased fiancé. An entirely different kind of dangerous!
Quinn is the woman Jace has always wanted—and she's strictly
hands-off. But keeping her safe means taking her to his small apartment…and his
bed. So for one unforgettable night, Jace will give in to the temptation he can
no longer resist. One night of forbidden hunger. One night he prays will be
enough to satisfy a lifetime of longing….
Review:
It was ok, I was reading this one for the scarred, tattooed
hero, he sounded delish… and he was, all protective and sexy… Yum! He’s probably why I’m giving this book a
decent rating.. the rest of the story was just ok. I liked Quinn’s passion for
her job but it kind of got in the way of the romance a bit for me. Quinn and
Jace have known each other for years; in fact, Jace is the brother of her
passed fiancé. Jace has always had a thing for Quinn but his brother met her
first and while he was alive they were so obviously in love. Now he’s been
passed for two years (I think the length of time is the only reason I wasn’t disturbed
by the whole brother’s thing) and Jace is still taking care of Quinn, doing
small things like making sure her lawn is mowed, fixing things, etc… Now Quinn
needs more than that, she needs his protection from one of her client’s abusive
husband. For me Quinn seemed to have more passion for her job than she did for
Jace. I felt it on her end, maybe because he’s been carrying a torch for so
long but hers isn’t as on the surface. In the end it was an ok book with a sexy
hero and not much else.
