Awesome to the tenth degree! My debut Silhouette Romantic Suspense just got a Top Pick! and 4.5 stars from Romantic Times magazine! This is so awesome, awesome, awesome! Here's the review:

"Police chief Matt Beauchamp last saw Kara Thistle a decade ago when they made a mistake that would haunt their lives. Kara had been engaged to his best friend, but when she got an offer from the FBI she left the area and the man. Now she's back as part of the bureau’s child abduction rapid deployment team assigned to the “Babysitter” cases. Three children are dead and the haunting clues left by the killer make no sense. But this killer’s motive is all too personal. Kara and Matt will have to confront the past to overcome the terror of the present. A very strong adventure and nonstop, heart-pounding tension combine with a strong romance to make this a fast, emotional read." — Page Traynor, Romantic Times Magazine

 

It's a nail-biter! Mark your calendars for AUGUST

What Else?

 

Thanks to all my fans who ran out and purchased TRUSTING THE BODYGUARD!

Because of YOU, I am sold out at the Harlequin site!

This has never happened to one of my titles before but I am tickled and thrilled!

Mad props to my fans for making this happen!

TRUSTING THE BODYGUARD received smashing reviews and I coudn't be happier that my readers have connected so well with this emotionally hard-hitting story. I wanted to end the Emmett's Mill series with a bang and I certainly did. Readers found a fast-paced, intense love story that left them grinning for the wild ride by the end.

FIVE STARS

"It’s time to say good-bye to Kimberly Van Meter’s much beloved EMMETT’S MILL series.  I’ve so enjoyed coming to know this charming town with all its unique characters.  There’s a real sense of ‘family’ that resonates throughout all the EMMETT’S MILL stories and with TRUSTING THE BODYGUARD Ms. Van Meter not only reinforces that emotion but seems to bring it to life.  The emotional connection between Marissa and Archer is obvious right from the beginning but they have many issues to overcome if there’s any hope of them sharing a ‘happily-ever-after.’  This story is fast paced, action packed, captivating and full of unforgettable characters who’ll live on in your memory long after you’ve read the final page.  What I particularly loved about this book is how much I came to care about the characters and anxiously turned each page praying that nothing bad would happen to any of them – with a few exceptions of course. TRUSTING THE BODYGUARD is more intense than other Kimberly Van Meter books I’ve read but definitely no less satisfying. While it’s not necessary to read the rest of the titles in the EMMETT’S MILL series in order to fully appreciate TRUSTING THE BODYGUARD, you might want to pick up copies of them so that you too can experience all the charm this series offers." — Chrissy Dione, Romancejunkies.com

 

 

FIVE STARS

"This fast paced romantic thriller keeps your heart pumping and eyes reading, hoping that Marissa and Archer will find their light at the end of the tunnel. Tough, gritty, explicit and bold; award winning author Kimberly Van Meter drags her readers into the dark world of a psychopathic killer bent on torturing the heroine and keeping her from the man she loves.   Even when outwardly the characters have given up on a happily ever after, in their hearts they recognize the truth. TRUSTING THE BODYGUARD is a very different offering from Kimberly Van Meter’s usual romance but it is definitely one that the reader will long remember.  Thank you Ms. Van Meter for a breathtaking finale to your Emmett’s Mill series." — Donna Zapf, Cataromance.com

 

FOUR STARS

"FBI agent Archer Brant is shocked to find scientist Marissa Vasquez in his home. She's the one who broke up with him a few years earlier over his dangerous career. But now Marissa is on the run with her young niece, and Archer may be the only one who can keep them safe from a drug-running gang leader -- who also happens to be her niece's father. It doesn't take Marissa long to realize that Archer's the only man she can ever love. Van Meter's story is exciting from start to finish thanks to characters that are realistic in their fear and determination, and a story that doesn't tie up the ends too neatly." — Alexandra Kay, Romantic Times Bookreview magazine
