REVIEW:STEALTH is the first instalment in Senna Kincaid’s contemporary, adult LOCKED SECURITY romantic suspense series focusing on the men who work for LOCKED SECURITY. This is former US soldier and Locked Security owner Elijah ‘Gunner’ Anderson, and web designer Freya Olysses’ story line.

NOTE: STEALTH was originally published under the pen name Sarah Peis.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Freya and Gunner) STEALTH follows the building but contemptuous relationship between former US soldier and Locked Security owner Elijah ‘Gunner’ Anderson, and web designer Freya Olysses. Five years earlier Gunner Anderson broke Freya Olysses’ heart but in the ensuing time Freya never forgot about our story line hero. Two years ago, Freya, tired of her father’s illegal activities and connections to the crime world, walked away without looking back but our heroine had no idea that her father struggled to let her go, having hired Gunner Anderson to keep tabs on his only daughter. Fast forward to present day wherein someone is targeting the Olysses family and business, and Gunner has been ordered to protect Freya at all cost but all does not go according to plan when their every move is mirrored, threatening our story line couple in the process. What ensues is the rebuilding relationship between Freya and Gunner, and the fall-out as the father’s sins have targeted our story line heroine.

The world building introduces some of the men who work for Gunner Anderson including Gunner’s right hand man Carter, and Blake, as well as Freya’s over protective brothers Liam and Gabriel, their father Constantine; Freya’s best friend Quinn, and the head of the Irish mob Cian.

The relationship between Gunner and Freya is one of second chances, of a sort. Gunner broke Freya’s heart five years earlier, and Freya struggles to accept Gunner as her personal protection, continually making his life difficult in the face of threats against our story line heroine. Often TSTL (too stupid to live) Freya is constantly looking for a way to escape, placing herself in the direct line of fire. Gunner battles between head and heart knowing his life is dangerous, and a relationship with Freya may threaten them both but Gunner’s need to protect quickly grows into something more. The $ex scenes are passionate but mostly implied.

STEALTH is a story of power and control, secrets and lies, independence and freedom, betrayal and vengeance, family and friendships, acceptance and love. The action packed premise is intriguing and dramatic yet familiar to many other romantic suspense series; the characters are energetic and desperate; the romance is fated and seductive.

Books are my passion and I have always been an avid reader. Sneaking my mom’s romance books when I was too young to read them turned into a lifelong obsession.

And now I not only read kissing books, I also get to write them. Dark romance and romantic suspense have always been favourites of mine to read, and I hope you enjoy the worlds and characters in my books as much as I love creating them.

I currently live in a small town in Victoria, Australia, with the love of my life, our two little humans and two fur babies.
