I haven't found a book by Katie Reus yet that I didn't love and "Sinful Seduction" is no exception from the rule. This book got me hooked right from the first page on and when I went through it to write this review....it drew me right back in and I didn't stop reading till the last page. Again.

This book is part of the Red Stone Security Series, a series of 15 books, all of them packed with lots of well-written action and romance.
In "Sinful Seduction" we get to meet Mina and Alexander. I really loved the chemistry between the two, you can feel their attraction and that they belong together.
It all starts with Alexander Blue rescuing Mina when someone tries to kidnap her... Their attraction is instant and when Blue stays around to protect her, the two can't help but fall in love - while at the same time trying to find out who is after her. The story is fast-paced and keeps you on your toes.

This is a voluntary review of an advanced copy.

This book is in a series of Red Stone Security but it is not necessary to read the prior books as this can be read as a stand alone.

Alexander Blue happens upon three men trying to abduct Mina. He saves her from the men and works to keep her safe with the help of his brothers at Red Stone. There are a few twists to the story and lots of intrigue and drama as Mina ties to figure out why she cannot reach her father or his head of security, Ivan.

One last surprise at the end when Alex reveals his last secret to Mina and they get their HEA.

A wonderful eighth book in the Red Stone Security series. Mina is an artist living in a secure home in Key West. She values her privacy and has remained under the radar until she is attacked in an alley. If not for Alexander Blue, who came to her rescue, she would have been kidnapped. Blue wants her to report the attack, but Mina is unwilling to involve the police. He does not understand her hesitancy, but escorts her back to her home. Blue is a former Marine and is now working for Red Stone Security. He was more than able to subdue her attackers and now insists on making sure she is safe. Mina will eventually confide her reason for privacy as the danger mounts. The connection and attraction between Mina and Blue is immediate. Blue will call in his teammates from Red Stone to thwart further attempts on Mina. I so enjoyed this book and plan on catching up on some of the books, in the series, that I had not read. I enjoy reading a series that offers continuing characters…it is like reading about friends that you have not visited in a while. Ms. Reus knows how to blend action with romance that keeps the reader turning the page. I received a free copy of this book and voluntarily chose to give an honest review. (by paytonpuppy)

Sinful seduction is the story of Blue and Mina. Mina has gotten herself into some trouble with men trying to kidnap her. Blue comes to the rescue and the chemistry between them makes it so he doesnt want to leave until she is safe.

This one to me left a bit to be desired. There was a bit of a lack of seduction and action compared to some others i have read. All in all it was okay but not a 5 star.

So while I own several books from this series, I haven’t read them yet (TBR problems are real, y’all). That being said, I really didn’t have any problems reading this as a standalone. Yes, there were some references to what were obviously previously introduced characters, but my not knowing them didn’t detract from my enjoyment or ability to connect with the story. It was quick and hot with an element of insta-love/lust, but not unbelievably so. The suspense was good and not too rushed, given that this wasn’t a super long read. This has definitely made me reshuffle my TBR to move other books by this author up on my TBR!

I've read this book before. I love Katie Reus' characters and this whole series! Mina and Alex were fun to reread! I would try to reread the whole series, but I just don't have the reading time!

Sinful indeed! Another terrific story in the Red Stone Security series with all the elements of a wonderful romance suspense. Great writing does the trick with amazing characters. You have the ultimate protective sexy ex-military hunk in Blue/Alex and he’s hellbent on protecting Mina after he saves her from a dangerous attempted kidnapping. Mina is a beautiful headstong reclusive artist with family drama placing her in danger. They make a great couple with loads of sizzle and sexiness! Although most of the sizzle didn’t happen until the end. Red Stone does what they do best...kick butt and take names. Fantastic suspense, drama, danger, romance and a few twists all played out in a terrific storyline. Loved it! I voluntarily reviewed an ARC thanks to NetGalley.

I received an arc from Netgalley. A hero protecting his woman is always the start of a great storyline and this book surely will not disappoint you. I love this author and the mix of emotions, suspense and seduction will keep you glued to this book.

Mina is from a rich and powerful family but at home in Key West, nobody knows who she is. One night when she is mugged, Vincent comes to her rescue and sparks fly. Vincent believes there is more to Mina’s mugging then meets the eye, is he correct? Fast-paced read with plenty of drama and great chemistry. I liked it.

I have read many of the Red Stone Security series and while they all have the same format each character and romance is there own.
Each story has a way of pulling readers in into a dangerous world full of spicy romance, suspense even with the practicability that happens when series pass book 5.

Thank you to Netgalley and the Author Katie Reus for a copy of Sinful Seduction.

Romantic suspense at its finest. Rich girl hiding in plain site. Former Marine saves her from kidnapping. Love happens while he attempts to keep her safe. I LOVE the fact that he realizes he can’t be her bodyguard if he is involved with her. A rollicking good read.

4 - "You're more than just a job." Stars!

The eighth book in Katie Reus’s Red Stone Security series gives us Alexander Blue and Mina Hollingsworth’s story. Katie excels in Romantic Suspense and Sinful Seduction did not disappoint.

"Why are you helping me..?"

"…Why wouldn’t I?"

Alex Blue is the kind of tall, dark and handsome that you want rescuing you from a suspected mugging in a dark alleyway as you make your way home of an evening, but as he talks to Mina about what happened the more it seems that the attack may not have been just a random occurence.

His warmth and strength were reassuring…

Especially when he also finds out that Mina is more than just the humble artist he initially thought, she’s also a wealthy heiress, and because of that a huge target for kidnapping and extortion. In steps the crew from Red Stone to offer her protection at his request, and Alex goes from protector to so much more as the chemistry between them grows stronger along with the risk to Mina’s safety.

She was the kind of woman he could see something real with and that scared the shit out of him…

Sinful Seduction was a fast paced, adrenaline fueled, sexy read. I love this series because although the stories are all based around the Red Stone Security team, each one can be read as a standalone, this being book eight, and I still have one to seven to read, and it was absolutely no problem at all.

"Whatever happens I’m here for you."

This was a good read, I would have liked more background into Blues experiences and what had made him the way he was and the suspense was good but again I would loved more. You know it’s a good read when you find yourself wanting more of everything.

Blue will always be there for Mina, having spent a decade as a marine, when his instinct tells him she is in danger he listens.
Daughter of a wealthy father, she has gone under a different name, and lives a quiet one. Till she puts herself in danger, then Red.Stone Security is put in place to protect her. The story is intense, intense between her and Blue, a mystery, and a great story. Part of a series, but can be read alone. Given ARC by Net Galley and KR Press for my voluntary review and my honest opinion

It is avvery suspenseful , action packed storyline . The chemistry between Alex ( Blue ) and Mina is an almost instant love . This is an intense story from the beginning .

I really really liked this book. Katie Reus is quickly becoming a very popular author on my shelf. I read my first book of hers a few weeks ago and quickly purchased a few more. So I was quite excited when this came up on netgalley. I jumped on it and read it through my lunch hours for a few days. Now I’m hooked and I have to get the rest in the series. Good character development and good story writing. Definitely pick this one up! 4.5 stars from me.

I really enjoyed Sinful Seduction. Mina met Blue when he saved her and from there we get a story full of action with some surprise twists thrown in on top of the romance. The story was fast paced and sexy, you can’t ask for much more.
