Amazing!! Lora Leigh keeps you engaged throughout the whole book!

I have been waiting for Rory Malone’s book since Noah’s book and again in Jordan’s book. Again, Lora doesn’t disappoint. Her suspense kept me guessing and the heat between Amara and Rory was hot hot hot. The story opens after Amara was kidnapped and Rory is saving her, with the help of his brother’s Elite Ops team, during which Rory is injured badly as is Amara. The story jumps six months to when Amara seeks him out, worried about continued threats to her life but she has amnesia for the past year, not remembering Rory but knowing he is important.

Rory comes back into Amara’s life, not as her bodyguard but as her lover, refusing to be her dirty little secret any longer, vowing to not only save her life but claim her as his own. But he must first struggle first her own amnesia and help her remember the bond they had before they could commit to each other again, all the while figuring out who in their inner circle could want both of them dead.

As with all of Lora’s books, this book had plenty of steam and heat to satisfy anyone. But it also had suspense, twists and turns and the emotional depth between the two characters that made me root for the characters and fall in the love with them. The story was unexpected and takes the world of Elite Ops in a new direction and I can’t wait for more!

Riordan Malone was Amara Resnovas former body guard and lover. He rescued her after she was kidnapped and he almost lost his life in the process.now he is back I. Her life but Amara has no memory of the last year of her life. Her life is still in danger and Riordan will do anything to protect her.

Amara was no pushover but Riordan was a bit too much of a controlling male for my taste. Amara wasn’t afraid to call him out but he tended to try to roll right over her. There was a lot of sexual tension, which I don’t mind but I could have used a bit more focus on the plot. There was suspense in the book and the author did a good job of keeping you guessing as to who the bad guys were. Thank you to net galley for an advanced readers copy.

Another great series from Lora Leigh. I really enjoyed this first book and am looking forward to others in the series.

This book should come with a warning, "Don't starting unless you have all night". I loved this book. Lora Leigh sure knows how to write a great story that keeps you interested from beginning to the end. I could not put down until I finished the book. It kept me on the edge of my seat, I didn't know what to expect next. This book has it all, drama, suspense, romance, surprises, and steamy scenes. Collision Point is a well written story. I fell in love with the two main characters, Riordan and Amara. I can't wait to see where this series will go next! I would recommend this book.

I have so many friends who are fans of Lora Leigh, that when I ran across this book on NetGalley, I grabbed it immediately. What I didn’t take a moment to figure out is that it’s right in the middle of an ongoing series. So…..I was lost a few times. It didn’t stop me from finishing this book in a single day. It’s that well written. I actually liked the characters a lot, and had sympathy for their situation. There was a lot of back-story that I had to guess at, but it didn’t bother me much. And here I have to add a…..

WARNING!!! There is a lot of explicit sex! So, if you’re sensitive to that, this book might not be for you. As for me, I read it all. The sex scenes, while explicit, are very well done, with such an emotional punch, that there was no way I could skip.

For those of you unfamiliar with my personal star rating system, I reserve 4 and 5 star ratings for books I intend to re-read. Since this is a middle of the series book, I won’t re-read, but I enjoyed it!

Ms. Leigh is a talented story-teller. I wish I had read this series from the beginning. Romantic suspense is my favorite genre, so I pretty much ignored what I had missed in previous books and found this a satisfying read. I do believe, however, that this story will work much better for those who have read the previous books. If you’re one of those, grab your copy and…

Enjoy!

Collision Point is a super sexy romantic suspense novel that hooks you from the first page and must be read in one sitting. Amara knows she's in danger and the only person she trusts is someone she cannot really remember. She hunts down Riordan from finding his face in her father's security files, the face that haunts her dreams and nightmares. She begs him to protect her from the menace she can feel. The soul deep bond they formed before she was abducted pulls them sensually together again as the danger builds around them. Amara's memories return slowly as the plot twists and turns to the truth of who tried to kill her and how deep the betrayal really goes. The story is very sensual without losing the plot with memorable characters. An alpha male hero and the strong willed woman, who loves him, battle their way through memory loss and danger to find their HEA. The story ends with the feeling that the danger is not over and will be continued into future installments in the series. Enthralling and engaging, the story draws the reader in to a fast-paced, sensuous journey. My voluntary, unbiased review is based upon a review copy from Netgalley.

Full review to be published online in late February.

COLLISION POINT is the first book in Lora Leigh's new "Brute Force" series, a takeoff of the authors 'Elite Ops' series. The book starts almost immediately with a steamy encounter; and segues into a story filled with sizzling romance, action, and intrigue. Riordan has turned out almost as alpha as his big brother Nathan Malone, who had been the hero in the book 'Wild Card'. Riordan is overprotective and has a sexy potty mouth on him in the bedroom,; but there’s still a gentleness about him you can’t miss. His love interest Amara is the daughter of an overly protective member of the Russian mafia. She came off in the beginning as a diminutive princess mixed with some attitude. It wasn't long before she began to show her mettle as a serious heroine, however. Both characters turned out to be smart and attractive, with some rather.serious personal issues to overcome.

Although COLLISION POINT is the beginning of a new series, it was nice that Lora Leigh included some of the ouples from the 'Elite Ops' series. It was nice to revisit some favorite characters from that series.

The idea was not so bad, but the way Lora Leigh developed it is lacking due to the absence of the culprit till the last minute, in a way I felt there was no way for me to understand who was the bad guy as he came out of the blue and I was disappointed. As a love story is absolutely intense and steamy, as it usual is with this author.

L'idea non era male, ma l'autrice sviluppa la trama in un modo che mi ha fatto sentire defraudata di un giusto finale perché il "cattivo" arriva alla fine e non c'era modo per me di capire chi fosse prima del momento in cui lui stesso si é rivelato. La love story era intensa e infuocata, come sempre accade con questa autrice.

THANKS NETGALLEY FOR THE PREVIEW!

Lora Leigh has done it again!!! Collision Point was a great roller coaster of a read. I was sucked in at page one and devoured this book in a day.

A big thank you to NetGalley and St Martin's Press for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. I admit I am a big fan of 'Ms. Leigh. I felt off balance at the beginning like I was a book behind. She jumped right in with limited introduction. I enjoyed the book. It was different and fast paced. Very sexual but less so than usual. Well worth the read. I think most romance readers would enjoy. I rated this a 3.5.

Book one in the Brute Force series kicks off with a sizzling romance, action, and intrigue. Riordan turned out-almost as alpha as his big brother Nathan Malone/Noah Blake (H in Wild Card). He’s overprotective and has a mouth on him in the bedroom, but there’s still a gentleness about him you can’t miss. His love interest, Amara had me thinking diminutive princess in charge with some attitude..then again, she’s the daughter of a former, seriously overly protective Russian mobster. I found both characters to be smart and attractive, but they have some rather..large personal issues to overcome. The fireworks that resulted were pretty big, very hot, and definitely sweaty:)

Elite Ops members also had a decent side role! Getting to see some of the guys and catch up with them, along with Grampops..win/win! I’m hoping to see more of the guys in further installments.

I have to say, I’m really curious to see where this series will go next!

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

OMG! This book has it all.. sex, lies, secrets, surprises, and suspense. I can always count on Ms. Leigh to write fabulous stories. Be prepared to be on the edge of your seat and need a cold shower. This is the first book in a new series with some old friends.
Amara is part Russian and is kidnapped and beaten. When she awakes in the hospital, she has lost her memories going back almost a year. Riordan. works for Brute Force Security and is Amara’s bodyguard and lover before she is taken. He is shot during her rescue and takes awhile to get back on his feet. She goes looking for Riordan because there have been some incidents involving her life being in danger. She finds her by looking in her fathers files. She is starting to remember bits and pieces but not who kidnapped her.. The danger is closer than they think and the memories are coming back faster. Can Riordan keep her safe and not lose his heart or was his heart lost the first time he seen her?
* Voluntarily read and reviewed this for Netgalley *

I wish I could rate this book with more stars because I think the actual story was pretty good. I can usually figure out the finish early in a book but this one kept me guessing until the end. The problem I had was with editing/proofreading in the advance reader copy. It was so bad I couldn’t follow the story at times.

Fan's of Leigh's Elite Ops series should love this new series that's full of suspense and intense alpha men.

This was my first Lora Leigh book not in the Breeds. I adored it! I could not put it down. I finally finished it at about 4am and still wanted more. There was a healthy dose of everything you could want in a book; ecstasy, suspense, drama, family dysfunction, romance... it will keep you wanting more. I totally did not see the person who was orchestrating everything until I was supposed to, which was a breath of fresh air. It was very well-written and you couldn't get better storytelling.

Loved Amara and Riordans story, the were extremely hot together and though Amara’s amnesia was frustrating it played well with the story. The suspense of this story was really good as I had no clue whodunnit until the culprit was revealed.

Riordan (Rory) is Amara's bodyguard and lover hired by her father. When she's kidnapped and tortured he is gravely injured in her rescue. She is so traumatized that she can't remember the incident and the months leading up to it. Now she thinks someone is trying to kill her and comes to Rory for help. He let her go once but he'll never do it again. Lots of action, suspense, and red hot romance.

A lot of suspense, but not as much seduction that I usually expect from Leigh's books. Riordan is my favorite character by far in the book.
