Wow! This book jumped off its pages!! You talk about a suspense filled romance that hits all the right notes – this is it. The characters had amazing chemistry and felt very three dimensional and intentional. I appreciated the story development and how it was well balanced in theme and timing. My only complaint is waiting for the next in the series to be released. Just an excellent read for suspense/romance lovers.
I NEED BOOK TWO!!! This was a great mystery romance. I really enjoyed it and the characters. Grant and Jordan are great, and I loved following their relationship. Their dynamic was so great and real. The mystery situation was really intriguing, and the suspense was killing me on every single page. I highly recommend and cannot wait to read the next installment!

Seductive Prey: The Relentless Trilogy By Vivian Fiano
This was a great read. I was pulled in from the beginning and I couldn’t put it down until I got to the end. The author did an excellent job at keeping me on the edge of my seat with the suspense. I became completely invested in Grant and Jordan, wanting everything to work out for them and hoping they can catch Jordan’s stalker. The chemistry between these two was apparent right from the start. This book has wonderful characters, romance, suspense, danger and so much more. This book leaves you on a cliffhanger which means I need to read the next book now! I highly recommend this book and I can’t wait to read the next one.
Seductive Prey by Vivian Fiano is the first in The Relentless Trilogy. With the story ending on a cliffhanger, it’s hard to get out of your mind when you finish it. Jordan and Grant meet during time with the National Guard, but because of their ranks, they are not allowed to have a relationship.
As they return to normal lives, their paths cross once again. When Jordan has an issue at the dance studio, Officer Grant is the one to respond. After deciding to pursue their love, threats start coming in. Who is behind the threats? Can they be together with the pressures of their careers and ranks?
Wow! If you love romance and suspense wrapped up in a book, this one is for you. I thought this book was fan-freaking-tastic! Trying to find who the “who done it” in the suspense part, I still cannot put my finger on it. The romance between Grant and Jordan…… sweet, hot and sexy at the same time. I cannot wait until the next book comes on to continue the story. The ending!!! ahh!!!!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
This isn’t the first book I’ve read by Fiano. She is a talented author and I love reading her books. I can’t wait for the next book!
Jordan is and always will be a dancer. When she wants to do more she signs up for the Army. There she finds the man of her dreams. Only things start going bad. The quote I chose for Jordan is: “I spent the most amazing evening with the best boyfriend on this planet.”
Grant is Staff Sergeant and gets on some guys butts when seen disrespecting a newbie. Little did he know that he would meet the love of his life. He wants to protect her when she’s being stalked. The quote I chose for Grant is: “It’s not too bad, usually. We go to the range to test-fire our weapons. I usually fire as an expert in both the 9MM and the M4. I prefer my handgun, but we fire both. I contemplated going to sniper school for a while but decided against it even though it would’ve given me a leg up on the force.”
Highly recommended for Military Romantic Suspense lovers.
Vivian has outdone herself with this book! Jordan and Grant are one of my two favorite characters of all time. I love how she paints Jordan as an independent woman but doesn’t overdo it. Grant is an amazing man and I wish there was more if him in real life! The scenes are hot and steamy but not too overwhelming. They aren’t the sole reason of the book. They are just enough to keep you hooked and the story itself is very well written and thought out and that cliffhanger is a sinker! I can’t wait for book 2 to come out and read it!
This is the first book in the series and it ends with a cliffhanger. Not for anyone under the age of 18. When office Grant meets Jordan, they form a relationship. But wait, like all great suspense romance novels, there’s a catch. Enter bad guy. When said bad guy decides to make Jordan his prey, Grant comes to the rescue. This novel had me sitting at the edge of seat. I cannot wait till book 2 comes out.
Seductive Prey (Relentless #1) by Vivian Fiano – Review by Krista Vaughan
Grant and Jordan are so adorable when they first meet at training, and when they meet up after they get back home the temperature turns up to hot, hot, hot! Jordan starts getting little “love notes” from an unknown “admirer” (read “stalker”) after an incident at her work. Creepy…as…heck! Then Grant starts getting texts? This is a hot love story with a creepy stalker and it ends on a cliff hanger! I am totally invested and can’t wait to read the next book!

This is my first book by this author. I loved the synopsis of the book and couldn’t wait to get started. I love giving a “new to me” author a chance. I wasn’t disappointed. This book was great. Our main female character is Jordan and our main male character is Grant. Jordan is a ballet instructor who has decided she’s going to join the national guard to help her get some more education under her belt. Grant is a Boston cop who just so happens to be in the same squad as Jordan. Their relationship is fast and steamy. However, they don’t have such a great love story without some bumps in the road. Read it to find out what (or who…) those bumps are. Can’t wait for book 2!
Seductive Prey by Vivian Fiano is a romance thriller that kept me fully engaged with the story. Jordan Smith has come home from her National Guard training and is ready to start working at a dance studio. When she enters the building one morning with a coworker, a strange man is inside attempting to steal music speakers. Realizing he has been caught, he tries to attack Jordan. When the police arrive, the man flees. Jordan recognizes one of the officers is Staff Sergeant Grant Summers from her National Guard unit. A few days later Grant and Jordan begin dating only to find a stalker is after Jordan.
The story is written in first person view that alternates between Grant and Jordan. I have three people as possible guesses for the stalker. First is Sloan: Jordan’s friend that wanted an intimate relationship, but she turned him down. Second is Officer Lynch: Grant’s partner that starts acting strangely and randomly disappears. Third is Piper Smith: Jordan’s sister who is jealous of Jordan’s ability to be praised by their father. The abrupt ending is at a major climatic point that had me begging to read the sequel. This is a 5 star romantic suspense book that I would recommend for adult readers that like a good mystery.
WOW!!!! I don’t even know where to begin. This story is so captivating it just draws you in straight away. I need to read the second book like now… what a cliffhanger, I can’t concentrate on anything else. I’m so excited to see what happens next. Jordan and Grant meet in the recruitment program for the national guard and they both notice the spark straight away but don;t act on it. Later on down the line they meet again when Jordan fights an attacker who breaks into her dance studio and Grant is one of the officer’s that responds to the incident, as soon as he sees her again he knows he must do everything he can to protect her even if he has to put his career on the line. Because of the content it is not recommended for anyone under 18.
Seductive Prey is the first book I’ve read by Vivian Fiano and the first book in the Relentless Trilogy. As someone that has grown up in New England, I was excited to see that Grant is a cop in Boston. I always feel like a book is extra fun when there are aspects “close to home”. Seductive Prey is an edge of your seat read from the very first page and it was hard to put down. The chemistry between our two main characters was of the charts and the storyline wasn’t boring either! It has been a long time since I have read a book series that was meant to be read consecutively and not “okay” as stand alone books for the cliffhanger at the end added an extra element of torture. As if I wasn’t already going to be continuing the series, the ending did seal the deal.
Seductive Prey The Relentless Trilogy By Vivian Fiano ☆☆☆☆☆ This is a full length Suspenseful Romance. Get ready to be caught up in this story. Not intended for those under 18. This is only the beginning!
Officer Grant Summers is a Boston Cop. He is following his childhood passion. His goal in life is to pay it forward. Jordan Smith is an Army National Guard. Her passion is to be a dancer, and to open her own school some day. In the middle of a horrible crime, these two are brought together to solve the crime. Can they stay on the task? Who is being stalked and how will Jordan and Grant solve this one?
Vivian Fiano is at it again. As this suspenseful story unfolds you will find yourself turning the pages and unable to stop reading. I love this high action storyline. The characters are strong and determined to get through this alive. Let not forget the cliffhanger. I just hope book 2 is soon. I need more! Well Done Vivian Fiano! Well Done!
This romantic suspense is the first book in the trilogy and does end on a cliffhanger. I really enjoyed this book, the story and not knowing has certainly kept me on my toes. Grant meets Jordan whilst both are attending their National Guard duties and there an instant attraction. But Grant is higher ranking and so the relationship is not allowed. They meet again whist working their civilian jobs when policeman Grant attends a break in at the dance studio Jordan works at. Following the break in, both start to receive threats, but are unable to find out who it might be, or even if it’s same person. This story had lots going on and lots of people, which made for an interesting story but also made it so hard to try and figure out who the threats were coming from. You just don’t know who may or may not be involved. I struggled to like Jordan at first, she just seemed a little too ‘perfect’, but she soon grew on me. Grant was easy to like, he was determined to do the right thing but also had a set career path which definitely gave him a dilemma or two. There is a lot of description for their time spent whilst on National Guard duties, so you really get a feel for that they have to do. I’m looking forward to the next book, I really want to figure out who might be behind the threats!
Seductive Prey by Vivian Fiano a thrilling five-star read. This is the first story in the Relentless series, and I am so eager for the next story in the series, as my goodness what will come next. This story had me gripped, every page I just kept turning it quicker and quicker needing to know what was going to happen next, when it was over, I had to sit and have a drink as I didn’t think I could do anything, I was limp. This gripped me so much, I don’t want to give any part of the story away as its just so well done, there is chemistry and passion, and drama and just simply well written plots. The characters are so well done that you can really see them as the story unfolds you know what is going to happen and how they are going to react, but you are still kept guessing, its brilliantly done.
This was a hot and steamy romance that had me racing through. I loved the cliffhanger at the end, it was perfectly done to get me wanting to read the next book as soon as possible. Jordan is a wonderful female protagonist, she is brave and ballsy yet also vulnerable too reminding you that she is a human with flaws. Watching the love story between her and Grant was intriguing and I’m itching to know how their future works out.
This was a great read that pulls you in right from the beginning. Jordan and Grant first meet when Jordan is getting ready to go to basic. They both felt a little spark. We jump ahead a little and Jordan returns from basic training and is ready to get back to school. She starts helping at the dance studio again as well.
When there is a scary twist, Jordan and a friend are attacked and her self defense training kicks in. When the officers got on the scene she came face-to-face with Grant again. Grant is determined to not let her go again and plans on asking her out.
Will Jordan go out with Grant? Will he be able to keep her safe?
Overall I really enjoyed this read. I really liked the characters, Jordan is a tough as nails female who knows how to take care of herself and Grant had a childhood that helps him connect with lots of children on a personal level. There are some twists and turns that add a great element to the story. I will warn we do end on a cliff hanger and it will leave you wanting more right away. If you’re looking for a good read, 1-click and get started today.

We first meet Jordan on her first day at the National Guard boot camp when some fellow recruits decide to try and get a rise out of her by demeaning her, but she doesn’t take any offense and just shakes her head while walking away from them until she hears the command of a higher ranking officer chewing them out for the inappropriateness of their comments, as he finishes with them, he introduces himself and then takes her to where she needs to meet her commanding Staff Sergeant. We first meet Officer Summers when he is attending to a call relating to oa drugs offence and the scene he sees when he gets there reminds him of his own childhood experiences, so as he reminisces, he looks after the child while his mother and another male are arrested.

When the police arrive, the assailant runs off and they don’t manage to catch him, however, it turns out that the officer attending is someone she already knows.
When Officer Summers is called to a breaking and entering, he is surprised to see that the victim is someone he already knows and they have a connection that nobody can deny and the fact that she fought the intruder ups her in his opinions again. After Jordan has made her statement at the station and returned home, the adrenaline runs out and she feels scared at what could have happened, but she is happy when Officer Summers checks in on her a couple of days later and is even more happy when he invites her out for dinner, she agrees and they end up enjoying each others company a lot, as the next few weeks pass and their relationship develops, Jordan starts to receive cryptic notes attached to photo’s of her when they are left on her car and her front door, but is this related to the break in at the studio, or is it something more sinister? This is a thrilling roller coaster ride which keeps you on your toes trying to work out who is behind the notes and photos while becoming more and more invested in Jordan and Officer Summers relationship as well as the pnes of those around them.

I am so excited for the next book in this trilogy – I can’t wait!!! Fabulous writing by this author and a highly recommended read!

This was such a gripping and deep read! I have not read Ms. Fiano before and this could not have been a better introduction to her! This book is everything my dark suspense and romance reader heart could have ever wanted. I loved how the characters felt real and relatable as I read them, almost feeling as if I was right there as they experienced the suspense. I was not expecting that ending but it sure has my heart racing waiting for book two! If you love a bit of a twist here and there and some deep thoughtful undertones to your romance, this is the book for you. I look forward to seeing what else may be available by Vivian Fiano as well.

I have read a few of Vivan Fiano’s books, and they are always page turners that leave me wanting more, Seductive Prey was definitely amongst those books. Miss Fiano’s word building is incredible and her character descriptions will leave you feeling like her characters are standing right in front of you. Seductive Prey is full of so many plot twists that you find yourself trying to guess what the characters are up to next. Seductive Prey is the first book in this series and this reader personally can’t wait for book two, I’m sure it will be as suspenseful and adventurous as Seductive Prey.
Seductive Prey was well written the story line is amazing. Jordan joins the National Guard where she meets Grant, he sticks up for Jordan when some other guys give her a hard time. Grant is a police officer where he answers a call about a break in at a dance studio that happens to be be where Jordan works. They hit it off from there This book is definitely a suspenseful, romantic, intense read. I can’t wait for the next book.

The Good: The characters are so wonderful. I love how Jordan goes from delicate dancer to badass chick after her training and the way her character develops. Grant is a gem and struggles with real life career issues and struggles that are relevant with current life today. Fiano does such a great job making her characters believable and relatable.
The Great: The plot is spot on brilliance. Fiano weaves a web of suspense, romance, and intrigue that you will have you devouring this book quickly and eager for more. She keeps me on my toes and drops just enough hints and tricks to keep me guessing what comes next!
The Steamy: As I previously mentioned, some scenes in this book are HOT HOT HOT. Fiano didn’t skimp out on the details but walked the line perfectly to keep it classy.
