Get ready for Naz and Eva to steal your heart!!! Eva is running from her past. Nasir has been sent to watch her by her "husband". There is only one problem. She does not want to be found. Instead of finding a spoiled, rich socialite wife, Naz finds Eva to be a woman that he is falling in love with. Eva is not going to cower, she is a fighter! I loved her character and add the protectiveness of Naz and you have a winning combination! The only down side is this book is a duet--so be prepared for one doozy of a cliffhanger.! J. T. Geissinger is a brilliant storyteller. She draws you into her characters' lives and you do not want to leave their world. 5 amazing stars!

Interesting and intense first part of the story between Eva and Nasir. Nair has his first job at the new agency and it is to keep an eye on the escaped wife. But after few month Nair cover is almost blown away when his path is crossed with Eva and they get to know each other. After many lonely days, Eva is prepared to let Nair in his life and lucky for her faith makes it happen that they run oft in each other. Attraction is instant so ist chemistry but Nasir is keeping a distance. After a quick time, they really get to know eachother and Nasir finds out that the client is not telling the truth. Nasir is prepared to do everything in his power to help Eva. When Nasir tells Eva the truth she doesn't believe him even when he brings her to safety. But Demitri doesn't want to leave Eva alone and after the attack, Eva knows what she has to do. I loved this witty funny communication between Nasir and Eva, their slow passion burning through the book. The story is well written and such a page-turner. Both characters are really well developed with troubled past but really great personalities. That is why it bothers me a little bit much that it ends with a cliffhanger and that we have to wait a little bit longer to see how this story will end.
I volunteered to review an ARC of this book for Netgelly

I'm ALWAYS blown away by Ms Geissinger, but this book stands on its own - AND made me look up all of her works in case I've missed any. I'm addicted all over again.
Ms Geissinger writes the "slow burn" better than any other author I've ever read, and I'm not exaggerating in the slightest.
Naz and Eva were the most captivating couple I've read in a long time. The banter and the flirting? *swoon*. The heat and the drama? *also swoon*. She's any of us; a bit nerdy, a bit naïve, a bit of a temper and a heck of a lot of sass. And he's the perfect broody, tortured and devoted match for her. There's nothing better,
Thanks very much!!

I love JT’s writing. This book was a bit different from her standard issue book. I still loved it! Great suspense, the story kept me interested. Ohh and the sexual tension!!

This is such a good book! I love romantic suspense and I really enjoyed this one! This author has a way of drawing you right into her stories and holding you hostage with her wonderful words and characters and this is no exception. I felt so many different emotions reading it that I simply couldn’t put it down. I love Naz and Eva and their verbal sparring was hilarious and their chemistry is hot, sexy and through the roof!! Their story is not your average love story and that's what makes it so good! This is a very intense story that ends when you really really don’t want it to. That’s right, it’s a cliffhanger and a steep one, but totally worth investing your time in. I can’t wait for the next book to see what happens next!!!!

4.5 Stars!

"Making her smile is addictive. It gives me a hard, heady rush, like I've snorted cocaine."

"Life is short, Naz, and full of pain. When I die, I don't want to have any regrets."

"This woman has no game. There are no pretenses. Everything she feels and thinks is written on her face and rings in her voice. She doesn't hide anything. She doesn't even try."

"He's gazing at me with so much tenderness it feels like a knife plunged into my heart. No man has ever looked at me like this before. Like I'm a treasure. Like I'm a prize. Like I'm the only thing that matters to him, or ever will."

Addictive and all consuming are just a few words to describe Dangerous Beauty by J.T. Geissinger. Dangerous Beauty follows the story of Evalina and Naz. From the moment you dive into Eva & Naz's story, you will find yourself utterly hooked. Eva is on the run from a life she never wants to be apart of. She just wants to be free and to find some happiness. Naz was hired to keep an eye on Evalina. But Naz has no clue what he's gotten himself into. When it comes to Eva, he doesn't have the full story. He knows he should stay away and that Eva is totally off-limits, but as time goes on and these two get closer, staying away proves to be harder than ever. From explosive chemsitry to some seriously dangerous situations, Eva & Naz's world is about to be totally turned upside down. And all I can say is that you should sit back, grab some popcorn and just enjoy the ride....

Dangerous Beauty is a fabulous read from beginning to end. This story pretty much hits the ground running and will have you devouring each word. This story is fresh. It's entertaining and filled with wonderful characters. I loved that Naz & Eva had instant chemistry, but they didn't act on it straight away. I liked seeing Naz fight with what was right and what was wrong. And at the same time, I enjoyed seeing Eva come into her own. She was brave, full of life and wasn't about to return to her old life for anything. She didn't trust many people and boy did she ever have her reasons. Together, I think these two were an excellent match. Their banter was off the charts and I enjoyed the humor they tried to inject in those super serious moments.

Dangerous Beauty is fun, addictive and will keep you on the edge of your seat right until the very end. I loved the characters and enjoyed reading their story. The action and suspense kept me on my toes and had me dying to see how this story was going to play out. I enjoyed the connection that Naz & Eva shared. It was a lot of fun watching them navigate their way through all the lies, and betray to see if what they had was strong enough to make it past the cards they had been dealt. I easily devoured this book in a single sitting. My only complaint is that the story is over!! The ending took me totally by surprise and has me just dying to see what happens next. My fingers are crossed that it won't be too long of wait to see just how Naz & Eva's story will end....

This was my first book by this author and I enjoyed the writing style and found the book to be engaging most of the time, although there were some slower parts. I enjoyed the main characters and their banter back and forth and the slow burn of their friendship/relationship. There was lots of action and drama and definite chemistry. This is book one in the series and ends in a cliffhanger. I am interested to see what happens in book two and would like to read more from this author.

This was my first book by J.T. Geissinger and it did not disappoint! I did not know this was going to be part of a series and would end in a cliffhanger, so that ending was a bit surprising but also extremely exciting!

I instantly fell in love with Naz's character! He was so charismatic and protective with a cage around his heart. His guarded demeanor left him vulnerable for falling so hard for a character like Eva.

My heart bled for Eva. She was so courageous and fierce. No one knows their strength until they have nothing left to lose. Her history and experiences stole everything from her and all she wanted was to live without fear and control.

The relationship that built slowly between Naz and Eva was beautiful! A true friendship was established, saturated in hilarious banter and jabs. Their connection and unwavering ability to poke fun at each other made this read so comical and fun even when the story took dark turns.

The cliffhanger was amazing! I cannot wait to see what Dimitri has in store for these two! No doubt it will be hostile and gut wrenching and I'm so here for it!

3.5 stars.

I received a generous ARC from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I really love J.T. Geissinger and think she is an expert when it comes to crafting the perfect slow-burn romance. Dangerous Beauty was no exception. Eva and Nas was inevitable from the very beginning and I really loved how their relationship progressed. For me, the story was just a bit too out there and it was hard to truly fall in love with the characters because of it. However, I will continue to read what Geissinger puts out and will finish this series as well.

I love J T Geissinger! And this book did not disappoint. While I tend to wait to read books with a cliffhanger i decided to read this one and I can’t wait to re read this before the other books come out ! The book had all the features you want from a trilogy, suspense and heat, and a yummy alpha

Be fair warned the cliff hanger is not one you see coming , but I promise naz and eva’s Story won’t disappoint

I can’t believe I got to read this little gem! This author has become one of my favorites! And this book was just as amazing as her other books!
Thank you for this opportunity!

OMG! AMAZING! Like shout it from the roof tops AMAZING! At the same time I just want to throttle her for giving us a cliffhanger! I despise cliffhangers. Its not a fault of the author, I just know my memory is sh*t and the wait kills me. That being said, from one of my all time top favorite authors (and Ms. Geissinger is in my top five for sure) I'll still read them, but I like a warning. Thats my only criticism of the whole book, I'm used to her interconnecting series with each book covering a different couple, so thats what I expected with this one. I got to 92% and plot twist! I'm frantically searching for more pages, even reading the description again to see if it indicated a cliff hanger then scouring the pages to see when the next one comes out lol.
Anyway, its all good and she more than makes up for any disappointment I had over this being a cliffhanger by being such an amazing unbelievable story. Its so thrilling and suspenseful and in parts both super fun and flipping HOT! Naz is up there as one of my favorite book heroes now, its only a few weeks into the year but it'll take awhile to knock him out of the top spot. Hopefully by the time that happens the next book will come out to remind me why I love him so much. Eva is growing on me. I like her spunk, and their chemistry is FIRE, but my favorite parts were their quiet silliness. You don't see that enough in romance. Add in the nonstop action and intrigue and this is going to be a big contender for top read of the year once we get the other installments. I can't wait for more!

Another fantastic book from J. T. Geissinger. Featuring a super engaging quick moving story line with exciting characters who had smoking hot chemisty. Definately worth picking up, a must read.

This is a CLIFFHANGER! The first in a 3 book series. I am almost diabolically opposed to serial cliffhangers because IMHO very few authors do this well. The total length of the series ends up being equivalent to the pages of one book or the story gets frustratingly, boringly, painfully dragged out. Normally I cross check book descriptions, but since I had read previous books by this author and enjoyed them, and they were NOT cliffhangers, I requested this book without my usual due diligence. The NetGalley blurb does NOT say it is a cliffhanger, Goodreads does. Lessoned learned.

Nasir Mansouri, is ex Special Forces, ex law enforcement, currently working private security for high profile clientele. He is hired to shadow Evalina, whom he believes to be a spoiled, runaway wife.

Evalina Ivanova spent 7 years with an abusive, narcissistic, Russian Mafia connected elitist. She tried running away but was always found and taken back. She thinks she has finally succeeded in getting away this time. She has managed to isolate herself on a small island, works a job she enjoys and lives a quiet life.

A chance encounter, where Nasir saves her life, leads to more interaction than either expected. As they discover more about each other, Nasir learns the truth of her situation.
With his background, I find it difficult to believe his instincts weren’t screaming over so many things. Yes, love, lust, infatuation can be distracting, but I would think training becomes second nature after a while. And the last scene? No way could it have happened IRL. None. My mind is already wondering how this is going to continue for 2 more books.

Having said all this, it is an enjoyable read. I’ll just have to decide when the next one comes out if I’m invested enough to continue.

I voluntarily reviewed an ARC provided by NetGalley and the publisher.

I loved it! It's a great start to the series! I enjoyed Naz and Eva's story. Naz is hired to follow Eva around in Mexico. She is escaping a Russian mob who made her life miserable for seven years. They meet when Naz saves her from a group of drug dealers. They have an instant attraction, but for Naz, it created a lot of inner turmoil. Once he learns the truth about the real reason of Eva's hiding he decides to become her protector. It is when the story takes a turn because all the truths come out and causes a rift between Naz and Eva. Eva then learns the truth about Naz feelings. The story then ends in a cliffhanger, but it's okay because we can see what will happen next.
One of the best things about Dangerous Beauty was the dialogue between Naz and Eva. It was funny, sweet and full of emotion. They kept each other on their toes. I thought it was sweet when they make fun of each other to alleviate some of the sexual tension between them. Towards the end of the book we get some action and we learn that Eva can do very well to defend herself.
I will continue with this series and hopefully they'll be as good as this one.

Dangerous Beauty was an excellent start to a new series by J.T. Geissinger. Be forewarned though there is a major cliffhanger on this one I was completely blindsided by. I can't believe the author is making me wait! Ahhhh!

This story was intense right from the start and bam before I knew it, I was left gasping wondering where the rest of the story was. Nooo! Be prepared for a whirlwind of emotions; laughter, sadness, fear, excitement, and heat rolled off the pages.

Overall this was an outstanding start to a new series and I cannot wait for the next installment.

I absolutely loved this book! The feelings that Eva and Naz have for each other and their struggles to get together draw you in and keep you rooting for them through all the danger, lies, and little bits of fun. This book gives you all the feels and keeps you reading way into the night to find out what will happen to Naz and Eva and if they will get their HEA. Great first in series book! Can't wait for the next one!

2 stars
This is a case of, "I think it was me, not you". but thanks to net galley for sending the the book.

Agh, I did not know this book ended on a cliffhanger without resolution, so frustrating!
The actual story I loved though, it is just going to kill me while I wait for the next book! #DangerousBeauty #NetGalley

I've been waiting for this story since I read the last Bad Habit book. I love Nazir/Barney! He's always been a little mysterious and secretive. That just makes him more interesting.New job, easy money watching a rich guys runaway wife,NOT!! I love the back and forth dialog between Naz and Eva. That is the best part of a J.T. Geissinger book.Funny,suspenseful and hot!!! Am I happy this book ended in a giant cliff hanger? NO!! I am eagerly awaiting the next part of this story. I just hope it's not a year before we get it.
