Take Me Down (Riggs Brothers #2)

Okay, So I thought Luke and Emily’s Story ( Drive Me Wild ) was freaking fantabulously bad boy naughty with swooning like flavor!
Mmhmm, Jace and Tara’s story assaulted all my senses with all that and much more! This one hit on a different level of swoonville hotness I did not see coming!

Phew!
The Rigg brothers sure know how to give as much heat as they take!
Jace is fresh from his time behind bars, meeting up with a counselor is apart of his acclimation to life on the outside, when that counselor is the firey let me heal you, Tara, he never stood a chance! But then maybe she didn’t either- these two from different worlds but having the kind of chemistry that lights up the night sky, something is pushing them together. Will it be enough to keep out what wants them apart?
I gotta say this one, took me on an emotional hotter than Hade’s ride I could have happily ridden all day! Wow! Julie Kriss writes some sexy bad boys! After this one, I cannot wait for Ryans story!
An absolute must read!

Jace Riggs, the youngest of the Riggs brothers has just finished a 20 month jail term for grand auto theft. Out of all the brothers, he is the one you would never have thought would have done this. Jace is intelligent, quiet and keeps to himself. Part of his early release is to meet up with a counsellor, to get the court order lifted so he can get on with his life. Tara Montgomery is the counsellor and all her training is saying something does not add up with Jace. The first meeting does not go well and the second one leaves her wanting to apologise, but is that really the reason she wants to find Jace? Or could it be that she has never been so attracted to a man before? While Jace has a huge secret, so does Tara. What happens when Taras secret comes out for revenge and in the process could destroy Jaces own secret? The Riggs brothers are starting to realise that they are there for one another. Can they show the town that there is more to them that what they have been subjected to their whole lives? Ms Kriss is a fairly new author to me and I have really enjoyed this series so far. The story is fast paced, the characters are likeable, and the plot thickens with plenty of building climax. The chemistry between Tara and Jace was magnetic. Secondary characters leave you wanting more of their own story. I cant wait to find out about Dex, he seems to be some sort of an enigma.

Very enjoyable!! Every book I’ve read by this author I’ve really liked and has been a 5-star read! This author just really knows how to write romances combined with action and suspense. I particularly loved the chemistry between Tara and Jace. I find their careers and how they met to be very interesting and while the theme of counselor-client may be a clich or a trope, it worked really well! I can’t wait to read more by this author!!

*I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review*

Take Me Down by Julie Kriss is the second book in her interconnected Riggs Brothers series. Told in dual POV, this series focuses on the Riggs brothers and their stories. This book is Jace’s story and it’s an emotional one. Starting with the discovery that he had his reasons for going to prison and that he really should NOT be in counseling, moving to the ridiculous amount of sexual chemistry he experiences WITH his counselor, and ending in a whirlwind of a relationship and life or death decision that wraps up Jace’s romance but doesn’t necessarily elave the Riggs brothers in a safe place.

Well-written and fast-paced Julie Kriss is a recently new to me author and I’m very glad I took a chance on her books. The stories flow well, read easy, are smoking hot, and have enough angst and drama to keep you enthralled but not too much so your left wore out by the end of the book. Loved this! Enjoy!

Jace and Tara have off the charts chemistry! From their first encounter, you can feel it. They both have secrets and I don’t think anyone would have guessed Jace’s (either one) beforehand. I love how this book peels back layers on the characters and doesn’t just give a generality.
So far, the stories in this series have two plots going on simultaneously. On one side it’s the romantic plot and on the other, it’s the familial plot. The romantic plot lasts for the book, but the familial plot expands throughout the series. However, it’s not written in a way that you HAVE to read every book to get it. It’s just nice that they have this link.
