Review of Tell Me What You Want (Knights of Texas Book 1) by Susan Sheehey
Renner is a former Marine and bodyguard who's now gone into the escort business, The Knights of Texas. Cassie is his new client, but she's unlike any other client he's ever had. For one, she only wants someone to sleep next to her in bed. You see, Cassie is a grieving widow and needs someone next to her so she can sleep. The easiest way is to hire someone. She never counted on Renner coming into her life and completely changing it, making her see past her grief to the life she can have, if she'll only reach out and grab it, grab onto the love he's offering her.
Gah, this book frustrated me! Cassie frustrated me, and yet, I could empathize with her and see where she was coming from. But Renner, poor lovely Renner. He's the real star of this story. He's so sweet and loving and is an open book to this closed off, damaged woman. I felt for him sooo much. Much more than even Cassie, who was the one who was grieving.
As this is a novella, it was a bit too short to fully develop the characters and the relationship the way I prefer. But the author still did a good job letting the reader into Renner and Cassie's lives and hearts. I just wish we could have gotten their story in a fully realized way. Aside from that minor thing, though, I enjoyed Tell Me What You Want. It's passionate and both Renner and Cassie are relatable, likable characters with serious chemistry.
