Pulled Under by Lisa Renee Jones Blog Tour #bookreview #excerpt #walkersecurity #teasers



ABOUT
A new sexy standalone from Lisa Renee Jones…

He is blond, tattooed, and dangerous. She's as beautiful as she is mysterious and could be his destruction…

Asher wasn't always a member of the elite Walker Security team, he was a billionaire's son, who rebelled against his father's controlling hand, and ended up in New York City's underground of drugs, rock n roll, and danger. But that is long behind him, and while his tattoos and long blond hair remain, he's now a chameleon, far more comfortable in a suit and tie than a leather jacket.

Or so he likes to tell himself.

But now Walker Security needs him back inside the underground club scene for a police case they're working. Women are dying, murdered, and the clock is ticking until another victim is claimed. When Asher is pulled back into this toxic world he meets Sierra, who is as beautiful as she is mysterious. A woman who calls to a darker side of him, long suppressed, unleashing it in what becomes wicked hot passion and obsession. But Sierra has a secret, one that leads her, and Asher, to a dangerous place, and game, with dangerous players, and the game is about life or death.

EXCERPT
“You want more now, and yet you don’t want it enough to make it end. And I already don’t want it to end, Sierra.”
She leans into me, her head resting on my shoulder, emotion that isn’t pleasure radiating off of her and crashing into me. I cup her face and tilt her chin up, my thumb stroking her cheek. “What are you thinking?”
“Nothing. Everything. Can you kiss me again already?”
“Where, Sierra?”
“Where?”
“Where do you want me to kiss you? Tell me.”
“Everywhere.” She pushes to her toes, and her lips find mine, looking for an escape, trying to drive her demons away.
I want to demand her answer, make her tell me where she wants my mouth, but I feel her desperation, her need to escape whatever is in her head. And so, I press my lips to hers, I kiss her mouth, drinking her in, and I don’t taste him this time. I taste her. I taste us. I taste need and hunger and passion. “I want you naked,” I say, my hands sliding inside her jeans and panties. “In every possible way, Sierra.”
“I’m pretty sure I’m already there, and it’s terrifying.” She flattens her hand on my chest. “If you turn into an asshole, I swear—”
“You can punish me,” I promise, “and I’m still willing to offer suggestions.”
“If you turn into an asshole after I trusted you,” she says. “I won’t need suggestions, Mr. Ex-Navy SEAL who won’t be able to hide from my wrath.”
Fuck, I’m crazy about this woman. “Good thing I’m not going to turn into an asshole. I want you naked,” I repeat, and this time, I make it happen. I lower myself to one knee and take her jeans and panties with me. My arm wraps her waist and I lift her, dragging her clothing away, and setting her back down. My hands settle on her hips then and I look up at her. She stares down at me, the simmering look in her eyes all about arousal, submission. And I want that from her and not because it’s some sex game, of which I could play and play well.
I press my lips to her belly and just that easily she trembles, and it only makes me want more. Everything is more with her.  I drag my mouth lower and lower...

My Pulled Under Review . . . 

I have to admit that I haven't finished the Original Walker Security series and also not book one yet.  I tried to first before reading this book but life didn't give me enough time.  I thought it would effect my reading experience but it didn't.  I was able to read this as a pseudo standalone.  I say pseudo because of Lisa Renee Jones's other series I am familiar enough with the Walker boys to not be lost in this book.   Sometimes authors say its a standalone when it belongs to a series and often I feel too many details unknown that it can't be considered a true standalone but this one could be a standalone but having any background on the Walker men does help the reading experience even more.

This book had a whole bunch of suspense and a whole lotta of passion.  How could it not with not one story line happening but two.  Plus you add in sexy yet funny Asher to the mix. 

I have to admit I was quite liking the whole book until the end. From the beginning I was hooked and then I felt the peak, wrap up and conclusion happened way too quickly, lessening the ending of this book for me.  If it ended in the same pace the book was in, it would have been so much better. 

Asher is under cover with Walker security and while he's there he meets Sierra who is on the run.  Together they try and fight her past and his current case.  While they are fighting the cases they fall for each other which went fine even though I was a bit confused at times when Sierra would meet a new person in the Walker group and act like she either knew about them or has met them before when that wasn't the case.  However, that was only a small irritant for me.  I did truly like the story so much but I was so disappointed about the speed of resolution after so much building that it changed how I felt about the story.  Gah! I hate that when it happens. Even though I was disappointed about the end doesn't mean others will nor will it effect me wanting to read more from this author. 

Because of the build up of this story and the Walker Men in this book I'm even more excited to finish the original Walker Series (Tall, Dark and Deadly series) and also finish Deep under.    Can't wait for Falling Under.  Jacob's story should be interesting.

3 Suspense and Passion filled thumbs up!
