Shaken: A hidden identity, small town romance (Maynards of Severton Book 4) Kindle Edition

by Annie Dyer (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 219 ratings
He can save her life, but can he save her heart as well...

Abby Walker arrived in Severton searching for her sister. Two years later, she’s the one being hunted. Life as a cop in a small town shouldn’t include protecting tiny blonde bartenders from big city gangs, but Alex Maynard won’t ever let the bad guys win. The quietest of the Maynard family, he refuses to let anything blur his lines.
Except Abby. He knows he’s been her crush for a while, but doing anything about it wouldn’t have felt right, not when he knows she’s keeping a secret that could destroy his career.
One hot night and a scorching kiss later, the feelings between them have definitely been shaken. Abby’s life is in danger and Alex has to make a choice - the woman he’s falling for or protecting his small town and his family that lives in it.

Contains a hot cop, small town, and some serious suspense. Shaken is part of the Maynards of Severton series but can be read as a stand-alone.

    I just can’t express with words how good Shaken is. Every time the next book in this series is released, I think I have found my favorite, but then the next one is even better! This time we get to see Abby and Alex fall in love. We also get a bonus in that the story is filled with suspense and intrigue regarding the sinister inner workings of an underground criminal network. The plot is a delicious blend of love, passion, murder, and intrigue!
    Abby’s been keeping a big secret, one close to her heart and pretending to be someone she’s not in hopes of finding her sister. She gives up her dreams, but finds something more than she bargained for when she follows the trail to Severton. She doesn’t want distractions, but she can’t help falling for Alex and his broody ways.
    Alex is a smart cop. He knows that Abby’s been hiding out, he just hasn’t figured out her secret yet. He doesn’t understand the attraction that he has to her. When he realizes that she is mixed up in the case he has been working, he realizes that he will do anything to protect her.
    From friends to lovers, their story is as steamy as it is swoony.

    The Severton Search and Rescue series has been excellent so far, and book 4, Shaken, continues with that high rating. This is a very unique series to me in its locale, with the climbers, even with some of the language and phrases.

    Annie Dyer is very good at writing series where the characters continue on and build from book to book. The citizens of Severton are interesting, and the mystery of the cult and the crimes being hidden continue to grow. As a police officer, Alex is quite involved in the crime world of this area. Abby is hiding some secrets about her past and why she is in Severton. A good story.

    It has it all in one book. Romance! Alex and Abby's story has all the feels! Loads of steamy goodness. Suspense along with more pieces to the on going mystery falling into place. We meet new faces but enjoy catching up with our beloved tightknit family and the quirky citizens of Severton too. It's a fun summer must read. I loved it and can't wait to read hopefully Jake's story next. Annie has truly outdone herself with this one.

    Alex has been my favourite in Severton for a while. I love his relationship with Abby! I love his protective nature, and ZOMG, the outside sex is da bomb dot com!! The garden scene and the off the beaten path scene are both hot enough to make me need a shower, just DAMN!!

    I'm glad there's still enough hidden layers to keep me coming back for more, and enough fun in Severton to always make me wonder what wild antics are up next, just know, Alex is MINE, lol!

    Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2020

    I was so excited to get my hands on this book. I love the Maynard family and this wonderful, kooky town. Alex and Abby have danced around each other for two years, and it’s about time they stopped. The attraction and chemistry is there in spades. Sometimes people just need a nudge. Turns out these two needed a huge shove in the form of a mystery. As much as I love my BBF Scott, I really enjoyed Alex too. The town mystery really come to the forefront in this one. We find out so many things. We learn why Abby is so quiet and sticks to herself. Why she works herself to the bone. Alex has been in the background of the stories for a lot of the previous books, but we get to know more of him. So many great secondary characters that hopefully make future appearances. I absolutely cannot wait for Jake’s book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars My new favorite Severton couple!
    Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2020
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    Abby and Alex just became my new favorite Severton couple!!

    Alex Maynard has always intrigued me. Loyal to his town, protective of his family, slightly mysterious in his work, he's the quiet brother that everyone depends on. When Abby realizes that she is in real danger, its Alex, her friend and crush, she turns to. Their explosive chemistry doesn't surprise them but with Abby's life on the line, her sister's whereabouts in question and family loyalties in doubt, Alex has some tough decisions to make.

    I absolutely adored this book! Its steamy, funny and just suspenful enough. Once you start reading you will not want to stop until the very end. Annie Dyer is an automatic one-click for me! I can't wait for more Severton books in the future!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Loved being back in Severton
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 6, 2020

    I loved this so much!

    Alex and Abby's story was just absoultely amazing! I loved heading back to Seveton and Alex and Abby's story was everything I had hoped it would be. I kinda had a sneaky feeling these two would end up together.

    Severton is home for Alex and always will be. He has a job he loves as a Police Detective, he's the quiet one of the family
    ....well anyone's quieter when they have a cousin like Jake!

    Abby is relatively new to Severton and a bit of a mystery to the local residents....what is she hiding?

    After Abby is followed home one night after closing the pub where she works, she gets spooked and heads for Alex's house, Alex who she has always had a crush on.

    Alex and Abby's chemistry is something else! I mean they always say its the quiet ones you have to watch out for and if you have read Stirred well Alex matches Scott in the growliness stakes!

    I absolutely love the whole mystery surrounding Severton, tied in with why Abby is in Severton and not forgetting the usual shenanigans of Jake's Alpacas, Gran and Sadie Grace!

    I loved the introduction of the new characters and some that we saw briefly in Smoldered! I'm going to need their stories!

    There were tears, some twists and turns I wasn't expecting but I asboultely LOVED! I can't wait to see what else is to come in Severton Search and Rescue Series.

    I have read the other 3 books from the Severton series , and I was so excited for this forth book, and damn, I most certainly was not disappointed.

    We are back in Severton with the amazing Maynard family.
    This story is Alex Maynards and Abby Walker , aka Amelia Hope.

    This book absolutely drew me in with it's brilliant plot , and lovable, funny characters.

    There's never a dull moment in this story , you will be gripped from beginning to end .

    Amelia stopped her life two years when her sister, Tilly, went missing .
    She became Abby Walker . She moved to Severton hoping to find out information about her sister.

    She loves Severton ,and all of the people who live there, including the Maynards . There is one Maynard in particular that she has had a crush on for the past two years .....Alex Maynard .
    When she feels her life in danger , there is only one person she trusts to turn too ....Alex .
