Review-

I am HUGE Rebecca Zanetti fan. I have read and loved her Sins Brothers series. You can find my review of the first book, Forgotten Sins here. When I saw that she had a new romantic suspense book coming out I jumped on it. Little did I know that its actually a spin off of her Sins Brothers series. *happy dance*. So, Deadly Silence is the first book in the Blood Brothers series. I'll get right to the point. I LOVED it!

Ryker Jones is our hero. Ryker along with his brothers Heath and Denver run a detective agency known as Lost Bastards. They are known for finding the lost as the name suggests. Ryker, for me was a great hero. He loved his brothers to death and was willing to do anything for them. He was protective and possessive of Zara and he was open about his feelings for her. Ryker was lethal in his own way but he didn't hesitate to show his vulnerabilities to Zara. I just loved that about him.

Zara Remington was the sweetest heroine. I've fallen in love all over again with Rebecca Zanetti's writing style and how she pens down her heroines. Zara was sweet yet strong. She had bad experiences with men in her childhood because of her mother so she was hesitant to trust Ryker. But she was so genuine and kind and basically a good woman. She was also very smart and intelligent.

The chemistry between Ryker and Zara was great. They were extremely attracted to each other. They were both keeping some secrets but as the book progresses we slowly start to unravel them. I really enjoyed how the intimacy was built up between Zara and Ryker. They made a good couple and they totally deserved a happy ending for themselves.

Also, let's not forget Ryker's brothers Denver and Heath. They are both so damaged yet so determined to do anything for each other. I can't wait for their stories. There is a LOT of action in Deadly Silence. Rebecca Zanetti weaves a fantastic story with lots of suspense. There is enough romance combined with the suspense and action to keep you hooked. I also loved seeing the Sins Brothers make an appearance. I love how complex the world is in this series where nothing is how it seems. Definitely check Deadly Silence out!

EXCERPT-

Heat from his body washed over her, but she lifted her head tomeet his gaze. “We don’t have a relationship.”

He smiled then, and the curve of his lips held more determination than amusement. “I’m not letting you run, and I’m certainly not letting you hide, baby. Although neither of us has been in this for the long haul, I’m staying in Wyoming for the moment. The first thing that’s going to happen is I’m going to figure out who dared put a hand on you and make sure it doesn’t happen again.”

For the first time, she saw a side of him that gave her true pause.In the long haul, he’d be unbearably possessive. Why did that give her an intriguing sense of safety? “Knock it off,” she snapped in his face. “Get out of my business.”

That quickly, she found her back against the door and her front pinned by hard male. His hands planted on either side of her neck, his thumbs at her jaw, forcing her to look at him. “Something you need to understand and pretty damn quick is that your business is my business right now.” His thumb swept up and over the offensive bruise onher face.

“Step back.” Her voice trembled.

He ignored the very calm order. “No. You don’t want to tell me who did this? Fine. I’ll find out on my own, and I’ll have the name by the time I pick you up for supper. What you don’t want to do is deal with him or his case until I have that name. Kicking him in the balls might’ve just pissed him off more, and now you’ve let a bully stew on it for a while, which might be dangerous for you. Got it?”

“You have no right to interfere,” she whispered.

“Baby, I’ve been fuckin’ you for months. That gives me everyright.” Anger glowed dark in his eyes.

“We’re done. Get out.”

His eyes softened. “You shouldn’t make statements you can’tback up.”

She shoved against his ripped abs.

He didn’t move a millimeter.

And then he did.

His head dipped, and his mouth found her neck and wandered upto her ear. His teeth scraped, and then his tongue licked the slight wound.

Of its own volition, her body did a full tremble.

He leaned back. “That.”

Her mind fuzzed.

His mouth slammed down on hers. She knew his kiss—often dreamed about it. Not soft and sweet . . . not even lustful. It was dangerous. From day one, she’d tasted danger on his tongue, and it burned her hotter than she’d ever been.

Never had she dated a bad boy, but after living her desired routine-drivenlife for years, she’d craved adventure, and he filled that need. He drew out a wildness she hadn’t realized she possessed.

He held her flush against the door, kissing her hard, sending a craving along her nerves that almost hurt. His tongue went to work, his left hand keeping her jaw open for him. His right hand found her hip and dragged her against the obvious bulge in his jeans. By the time he released her, she’d stopped thinking completely.

“What time are you finished today?” he asked, his breath heating her face.

“Fi-five,” she stuttered.

He leaned back and gently put her to the side. “Stay in the office until I come for you at five, Zara.” He ran his thumb across her bottom lip. “Cross me on this, baby, and I ain’t gonna be gentle.” He had already shut the door behind himself before she could take a whole breath.

She blinked several times, her fingers going to her still-tingling mouth. What had just happened?
