Blog Tour: A Harlmess Little Ruse by Meli Raine

About A HARMLESS LITTLE RUSE (Harmless #2)

She has no idea what she’s doing. Loose cannons never hit their targets. And they take out plenty of collateral damage. Four years ago Lindsay experienced the unspeakable right before me, and I couldn’t stop them. But that’s all changed now. When her father, Senator Bosworth, contacted me to ask — demand — that I protect her, it was a second chance. A shot at redemption. An opportunity to right an unspeakable wrong. Controlling Lindsay as she seeks her revenge on the monsters who hurt her won’t be hard. Containing my own out-of-control feelings for Lindsay and keeping up this ruse of cold-blooded distance will be. Even harder than admitting to her what really happened that night four years ago. It turns out I don’t have to, though. Someone else did it for me. And I’ll make sure they regret it.

 * * * A Harmless Little Ruse is the second book in this political thriller/romantic suspense trilogy by USA Today bestselling author Meli Raine, and is entirely from Drew’s perspective.

REVIEW

A Harmless Little Ruse continues the intriguing suspense of A Harmless Little Game and takes us on quite a ride.  We are learning right alongside Drew that Lindsay is anything but the girl he knew.  The events of the past changed her, and she wants her vengeance. Drew thought he knew the lengths Lindsay could go to, but he's about to learn he doesn't have a clue, and he's about to make her a promise he's not going to like.  Drew's after more than a second chance at winning Lindsay's heart, he's out to prove he can protect her where he didn't in the past.  

This second book in the trilogy brought us a lot of information, but also more questions. The suspense of the threats against Lindsay kept me on edge wondering what would come her way next.  But I also enjoyed the banter and connection reforming between Drew and Lindsay.  The teams interactions with the both also added a fun change to the seriousness of things going on. 

I really liked the fact that we get to see Drew's POV in this book, we get to dive deeper into his intentions and get to the heart of the man. I said in my review of book one that it was hard to get a read on Drew and I wasn't sure about him one hundred percent, but now having glimpsed inside his head a little through this book,  I feel like I have a better gauge on the type of man he is and what he's fighting for.  

I love the way this story has developed between both books, the unfolding drama, the suspense of who to trust, the questions formed in my mind, the answers found in bits and pieces, and the way there's this subtle change in Lindsay and Drew from page one to the end.  I am sitting in heavy anticipation for the last book in this series, I need to know how it ends; to know what lies in the future for these two.

About A HARMLESS LITTLE GAME (Harmless #1)

Four years ago I lost my virginity on live, streaming television. Too bad I wasn’t awake for it. The video went viral. Of course it would. A Senator’s daughter on camera? Wouldn’t you click “share”? Besides, that’s what three of the four guys in the video did. Share. They shared me. But that fourth guy? The nondescript one in the background in the upper left corner of the screen, just sitting on the couch? The only one who did nothing? Not one single thing. That was my boyfriend, Drew. And that was the last time I saw him. Until today, when my father—now on a path to the White House—hired him as head of security for my new team as I return home after four years of “recovering” in an undisclosed location that involved white lab coats, needles, pills and damage control. You see, the other three guys never went to jail. Never had charges pressed. Never faced consequences. Until today. Game on. * * * A Harmless Little Game is the first in this political thriller/romantic suspense trilogy by USA Today bestselling author Meli Raine.
