Romantic suspense is one of those tricky genres for me. I either find myself deeply involved in the storyline or completely bored with it. In the case of Chain Reaction, it was deeply involved.

Tara Wyatt's writing quickly pulled me into the story. It was fast-paced and moved the story along quickly. Nothing was too drawn out or boring. The story contained just the right amount of suspense, and was entertaining. I found myself easily connecting to the characters.

Alexa and Zach were so adorable! I loved how the author set up their back story. It turned what could have felt like insta-love into a believable romance. They way they tried to avoid a romantic relationship but couldn't was cute. And once they acted on their feelings for each other -- dang! The story took a super steamy turn. The last third of the book was over the top sexy times. I loved it!

The only slight issue I had with Chain Reaction was that it was written in third person dual points of view. This isn't my favorite style of narration, but it worked for the most part in this story. The only problem I had with it was at the beginning when Zack is introduced. His character is presented in the middle of a party and his name kind of got lost in the mix of other male characters to me. It took me a while to remember who he was. That could be related to the fact I hadn't read the previous two books in the series and had no idea who all of the other characters I was being quickly introduced to were. Had the story been told in first person, it might have been easier for me to navigate.

Overall, Chain Reaction was a great romantic suspense novel. It kept my attention the entire time, and had me invested in the characters' lives. I highly recommend it to readers who like a series with interconnected characters.

enjoyed this book

Chain Reaction was a fast paced and entertaining read. When I first picked up this book, I honestly didn't know what to expect. This is the first book in this series and by this author that I've read, and I have to tell you, this book totally took me by surprise. I was intrigued from the moment I picked this story up. Chain Reaction is filled with danger, suspense and loads of sexy good times.

I thought Zack and Alexa were a great match from the very beginning. I thought they worked well together as a team and I really enjoyed how their relationship just flowed without all of the unnecessary relationship drama. I really liked how fiercely protective Zack was of Alexa and appreciated the lengths he would go to to keep her safe. And of course, you know I loved the chemistry between the two of them. It was straight up explosive and kept me coming back for more.

Overall, I really enjoyed this book. It hit all the marks for me. This is my first book by this author and you can bet that it won't be my last.
