Falling Hard by Kaylea Cross is the first book in her romantic suspense series, Crimson Point Protectors. In this installment Cross took plunged her readers in a world of vengeance, corruption and betrayal. In this the first book of the Crimson Point Protectors readers are introduced to Kerrigan Whittaker and Travis Masterson. Travis works a physician's assistant and also serves as a Air National Guard Pararescue officer. The story hidden between the pages takes the reader on several paths. Paths which covered search and rescue, romance between Kerrigan and Travis and a workplace controversy resulting in the murder of two employees and an attempt made on Kerrigan's life. The story featured a slow burn romance. Travis is in love with Kerrigan. However, he doesn't pursue her for two reasons. She is his best friend's sister and she's yet to overcome the issues of emotional abuse from her previous marriage. He, however is unaware that she feels the same way. Although she reciprocates Travis's feelings, fear held her back from declaring same. I loved seeing these two coming together. I especially loved when Kerrigan finally refused to let her fears get in the way of her having a relationship with Travis. The suspense which took sometime to build up add intensity to the last quarter of the story. Figuring out the source of danger dogging Kerrigan's doorsteps and their plan of attack didn't require an extensive use of brain power. Cross neatly laid out the clues from start to finish. Despite the predictability of the situation one will find themselves turning the pages to see the culmination of the events and learning the outcome for all parties involved. Although not as suspenseful as other books I've read for the author, I enjoyed my journey with Kerrigan and Travis. One can easily guess which character the second book relates to and I am looking forward to picking it up next. This review was originally posted on Totally Addicted to Reading
