Tease Me: A Stark International Security Novel Kindle Edition

4.7 out of 5 stars 537 ratings

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author J. Kenner comes a new story in her Stark International Security series…

Entertainment reporter Jamie Archer knew it would be hard when her husband, Stark Security Chief Ryan Hunter, was called away for a long-term project in London. The distance is difficult to endure, but Jamie trusts the deep and passionate love that has always burned between them. At least until a mysterious woman from Ryan’s past shows up at his doorstep, her very presence threatening to destroy everything that Jamie holds dear.

Ryan never expected to see Felicia Randall again, a woman with whom he shared a dark past and a dangerous secret. The first and only woman he ever truly failed.

Desperate and on the run, Felicia’s come to plead for his help. But while Ryan knows that helping her is the only way to heal old wounds, he also knows that the mission will not only endanger the life of the woman he holds most dear, but will brutally test the deep trust that binds Jamie and Ryan together.

Lets just say that where ever Ryan and Jamie are they chemistry is so combustible, they are definitely two moths brought to their flame. This story is filled with all the feel goods to a dynamic suspense, trust, honor, suspicion, remorse, insecurities and the courage to know when to fold them and when to hold them.

When she puts her plan into action she is rewarded with the man himself all geared up and ready to fulfill until his cell phone pings with a text message that sends him flying out the door. Unable to grasp what just transpired, she gets up and notices his personal phone and decides to read the message. UNABLE TO BREATHE she is left feeling betrayal more importantly believing he has been unfaithful. Ryan Hunter is the man who takes what he wants even as he gives his "Kitten" everything she craves. Its truly delicious even when the stakes are more than either care to bare. "He's my everything, this man. Friend, lover, husband, and I'm grateful the we found each other. The only reason I feel safe down here is because I trust you." God I love this.... Talk about having you throat in your stomach.... you are reeling in all the possibilities of what ifs why, how, who...... and then a long lost friend shows up to reach out to you only to really want to meet with her husband Ryan... At the same time Ryan text sends him spiraling into his past only to bring him to the thought that he may be married still and where will that leave his life with his Kitten. "There's only you, Kitten. There's only ever been you. And for the records, I will kill any man who touches you. So, no. There will be no sharing of my wife." His never ending love is so beautiful. He will protect her from everyone. While working on his past and trying to decipher what he remembers and what is happening now, he is catapulted into his here and now when his Kitten was a victim to his past. Ryan is determined to get to the bottom of what is going on when they discover that Jamie and Nikki college friend is the sister to his dead wife. Talk about a nail biter! You are my everything, Kitten, he says." Whatever is going on, we will figure it out. We will solve it, and we will fix it. You're my wife, for NOW for ALWAYS!

    Oh How I missed the Stark world!!
    I've read almost all of the Stark world stories and I loved every one of them.
    Ryan and Jamie has such a strong chemistry you can't help but to feel it through the pages while reading.
    Past demons and doubts creep in and threaten to unravel the strong connection, but they remember just who they are to one another!

    "I couldn't stand to lose you."
    "You can't lose me. We're two halves of a whole. Don't you know that?"
    "I do. But tonight, I need a reminder."

    Oh, how I love these two. I wish all relationships could be this loving, secure, and HOT!

    Jamie senses something is off. Ryan seems distracted and distant. With him an ocean away on a job, there's only one thing for her to do. Hop a plane and fix this. What starts out as a plan to rekindle what she perceives to be waning, quickly turns into a vortex of jealousy, secrets, lies, confusion, danger, and very possibly the destruction of all she holds dear. She thought she was losing Ryan before, but now, she may not have a choice.

    Ryan never expected that text. How could it be her? He thought he had closed the door on that chapter of his life, and marked it with a sign that said "Failure". He knows he needs to tell Jamie but he needs to figure out if this is real, or something else. Could her return ruin everything? Is this person really who she says she is? If she is, his whole world is going to unravel. With danger surrounding this whole situation, can he keep both of the women in his life safe, or will his history repeat itself?

    I can tell you this - Ryan is my new favorite man. He's so loving, and commanding , and sexy, and GAH, just a hunk!! Jamie is so strong. I'll tell ya, I'm not sure I would have been as strong and understanding as she was if I were in that situation. My man would have been hurting in a very sensitive area, if you catch my drift. But, these two were made for each other, and nothing, I mean nothing, is going to tear them apart.

    This was a great read and a wonderful addition to the Stark world!!

    I have enjoyed every book that I have read of J Kenner's. This one was no different. It was a great page turner of a novella. This is the third book of Jamie and Ryan's story. It is nice to see where the author continues to take them. There was lots of romance and some great twists that I did not see coming.

    Interestingly, Ryan Hunter is currently undertaking essential Stark International security work in London. But when his wife Jamie arrives expectantly from America we are immediately treated to a sexual role play with a surprising end.

    Their stay in London is full love but there is also angst and doubts when Jamie thinks that Ryan is cheating with a woman from his past. But is he?

    This intriguing and eventful book is eloquently delivered. It is another of J. Kenner's best. The pace of the story with its many twists and turns will keep you on your toes. Go get it now.
