Collision Point

Collision Point is book 1 of a new series, Brute Force. At first, I was VERY confused. I felt like I was missing something and the story seemed to just jump right into a plot. Upon further exploration, this apparently is a spin off of another series. Ok, not critical, but good to know that these characters have a deeper history! I liked that the story jumps right into the action, but I felt very confused as to what was really going on. This is a second chance story, so understand the history of these two characters is important.

The story has lots of intrigue. Amara was kidnapped previously and hasn't recovered all her memories. However, she knows she is being hunted again. She knows, somehow, that Riordan can help. She doesn't remember everything, but knows he will keep her safe. However, they also apparently had a sexual relationship and Riordan is quick to pick up on THAT aspect again.

As a romantic suspense story, Collision point had potential. However, the action is constantly paused so Amara and Riordan can have sex. I mean literally every chapter had a little action and then sex. It was a bit much and made the plot feel VERY choppy. I also felt like I didn't really get to know Amara and Riordan because their relationship felt shallow and focused on sex. Having pointed out that issue, I think Collision Point and the Brute Force series has potential. There was an interesting plot that would please fans of romantic suspense, and plenty of sexy times for those who need more romance!
