Stolen Desire by Lauren J. Runow

Secrets, lies, and tempting nights…
Never be surprised by what goes on behind your neighbors’ front door.

Clayton and Leilani live a picture-perfect life in a beachfront town. The hero cop and his wife have long been the dream couple, earning the affection of those around them, yet within their home is a couple who has lost their passion—a husband content in the life they’ve created and a wife longing for the thrill and heart-pounding nights of their earlier years.

When new neighbors move onto their idyllic street, Leilani is intrigued when she learns of their secret life. Looking for a new way to connect with her husband, Leilani convinces Clayton to step out of his comfort zone and into a forbidden union—and a world of trouble.

Actions go too far, and suddenly, a husband’s innocence is on the line as he defends himself to the public he serves, but he will stop at nothing to safeguard the woman he loves. Her life is in danger and only he can protect her because beyond the white picket fences and flowery facade, vows are forever, even when temptation is everywhere.

Come inside the world of Stolen Desire.

4.5 Heart Review by Lorena

Holy smokes, I certainly was taken on one hell of a suspenseful roller coaster of a ride that I never in my wildest dreams expected.

Clay and Leilani are a normal couple living a normal life until they get new neighbors in their neighborhood, now their neighbors are certainly not the couple they expected and lived a very unconventional life. When they get a taste of what they do, one wants to be a part of that lifestyle while the other not so much and therefore things start to get out of hand and the problems arise.

Well the intrigue, the drama and the suspense starts from this point forward and fingers start getting pointed at people and people started getting blamed and at this point we don't know who is innocent and who is not. 

I was sitting by the edge of my seat and couldn't find the time to put my kindle down and take a breather because I was so caught up in the story that it was impossible for me to let it down for a minute. I just needed to find out what was happening and who did what and how it was going to end.

Boy was I shocked let me tell you! Not how I expected this to go, so you will certainly be loving the twists and turns this book will have you in from the moment the suspense starts until it ends.

Leilani and Clay and the rest of the crew in this book were great characters and I loved them all!
