Escalation by Tessa Teevan

ESCALATION
Author: Tessa Teevan
Series: Clandestine Affairs #2
- SYNOPSIS -
The moment Rafe appeared on her doorstep, he was everything Brie Latham didn't know she needed. Sexy. Mysterious. Provocative. The absolute opposite of her domineering ex. Like a white knight in the form of a rugged, handsome construction worker, he freed her from her cage, allowing her to spread her wings and find herself again. To find love again. 

Just as she was ready to give in and finally admit her feelings for him, her past swooped back in, death and destruction in its path, causing her to question everything she knows.

And everything she feels.

Was their relationship all just smoke and mirrors? Was she destined to repeat the vicious cycle with yet another manipulative man, only to crash and burn yet again?

Who is Rafe Matthews, and will Brie survive long enough to finally discover the truth?

- EXCERPT - 
While I hang my head, shame and remorse fill me. I promised to protect her. And what did I do? I let her down.

I should’ve known that it would end up like this. I should’ve seen it coming. Yet my mind was clouded as my days and nights—and, soon, my heart—were filled with her, and she was all I could see. I let my guard down, and this is where it got me. Where it got us.

I never got to tell her the truth.

I never got to tell her how I feel.

I will never forgive myself if I never get the chance.

And I will spend the rest of my days hunting the man who did this to her. When I find him, I will kill him.

Because for her? I’d do anything.

- ABOUT THE AUTHOR - 
Tessa Teevan
Tessa is a twenty something book junkie who loves creating books boyfriends as much as she loves reading them. Government worker by day, writer by night, she gets little sleep, but couldn't imagine her life any less hectic. She lives just outside of Dayton, Ohio and has been married to her own book boyfriend for nine years. 

If she’s not writing or looking through tons of photos of hot men, all in the name of research, then you can probably find her curled up with my Kindle, ignoring the rest of the world. Her other obsessions include red wine, hot men, country music, and all things Stone Sour.

Escalation (Clandestine Affairs, #2)Escalation by Tessa Teevan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Tessa definitely has a way with words; I feel like with each of her books the stories only get better and better. I was pulled in hook, line and sinker with book one of this series and Escalation did not let me down. At the end of book one we were left with a huge cliffhanger, we were left wondering exactly who Rafe Matthews was and this book did not fail to deliver on explaining the mystery surrounding him. This series is full of so much mystery and suspense; it will certainly leave you one the edge of your seat as you greedily devour the pages. I won’t explain exactly who Rafe is nor will I explain or summarize much of the storyline because doing so would ruin the mystery and allure of this type of book. What I will say is that this is excellently written and clever, it is certainly not your run of the mill cookie cutter romance. Escalation will command your full attention until you’ve read the very last page. My reaction to the ending as well as the entire book was just one huge OMG, I cannot believe that just happened! I can honestly say that I cannot wait for book 3; I have to know how this story will turn out.
