A Love Restrained by Becky Flade – Review by Beverly Finnie

A Love Restrained by Becky Flade
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the beginning of the Philly Heat Series and all I have to say is WOW! A Love Restrained was the perfect beginning to a promising series. It reads well as a stand-alone as well. But who am I kidding I love characters I can get invested in over a series leaving me wanting more. A second chance romance with some suspense thrown in. Where could it go wrong? Everywhere but that’s what makes it a wonderful story!
Kylee and Jayson knew each other in high school. Both having feelings for the other. Unfortunately Jayson broke his promise to Kylee and left her devastated. Now he’s back and she just arrested him for selling drugs. How does one handle that?
Kylee knew he didn’t come from a good home. She figures that’s what landed him in her custody today, little does she know how wrong she is. Spoilers I’m not willing to share eventually clear the blinders on her eyes.
Jayson wants Kylee more now than he did when they were younger. It’s too dangerous though, especially since she’s a cop. He’s a criminal working near the top of a crime organization. It could never work. Or could it?
These characters challenge each other in so many ways. You understand where both are coming from. How stubborn they are. Reminds me of my stubborn streaks. I’m a Jayson fan and I’m rooting for them to work it all out.
Where will the author take this story?
What will come next in this series?
What happens when the tables are turned?
I really enjoyed this book and this author. Wonderfully written and perfect to grab someone into a series!
