After a lengthy world tour, pop star Samuel Gibbs is looking forward to a nice, quiet break―sleep in, write a bit of music, do his own cooking for a change. He doesn't want his time spoiled by the constant presence of bodyguards, and he is certainly not willing to have someone tail him each time he so much as goes to the shops. No way, no how. It's a good thing, then, that his head of security relents on the matter―or so he leads Samuel to believe.
The break is starting to look even better when Samuel runs into his new neighbor. Ryan Halston is smart and hot and, quite possibly, everything Samuel wants. However, he doesn't know that Ryan is part of the rejected security detail, tasked with protecting him from the dangerous attentions of an unknown stalker.

Amazing
By Marcela
Zarah has a way of building characters and personalities and making you invested in them. During the whole book, I was truly interested in each of their own narratives. They had intricate and greatly flawed human personalities, and I'm not only talking about Ryan and Samuel, the main characters. I really adored the side characters too - Sumi, Mark the bodyguard and even Jeremy.
I’m one of those people who usually can choose between fictional characters, but Samuel’s vulnerability and bluntness made my heart warmer just as much as Ryan’s crumbling walls and protective strikes. Their attraction was there from the start, granting great sexual tense moments, but the falling for each other was gradual and lovely to witness.
In terms of plot, I really liked how things went down; I cannot talk about it otherwise it would spoil who is reading this review, but I can assure it kept me interested from the beginning to end. The ending tied all the loose ends, and that is a very important thing to me when reading a book.
Also a shout out to the author for handling taboo issues still in our society. If you read the book - which I highly recommend to you! - you will understand what I'm talking about. *wink wink*

It isn't bad, but it isn't good
By M
This is one of the most difficult reviews I've written in a while, because I adored this author's two self-published works. Her style was distinctive and the characters felt real, like you spent enough time with them and in their story that by the end you felt like you'd watched something special happen. They're both on my list of books that when I'm between stories, I go back to those and their little bits of stream of consciousness. No Place Left to Run, though… That distinctive style is muted, though her turn of phrase is still a joy to read, in favor of a narrative that sort of switches between the two but never really makes it, maybe because the narrators mostly feel the same except the changed perspective.
Most of the book's events feel like a movie montage, such as "go to brunch, view a minute or two of the conversation, and fade out to see a scene of happy people eating with peppy pop song overlaid." I never felt like I knew Samuel, really, and the early portion of the book feels like a series of plot points more than a romance-- I think it's the montage effect. When we should be seeing the main characters fall in love, instead we're just seeing plot points and zipping through their time together rapidly. Maybe it was a decision for brevity, but it just didn't get me invested in the story, and it didn't give me a chance to know the people or their world.
Then, then we get to the "big betrayals" and the turn, and you realize… Samuel reads like two different characters, and the fact that I don't know most of these people or their friends means I'm numb to the supposed shocks. Early book Samuel is supposed to be weary and somewhat world-wise, even at twenty, and cheeky and charming and humorous and a little brash, but he suddenly starts reading like a petulant five-year old with his hands over his ears and his eyes closed chanting, "I'm not listening" as again we keep clicking through the plot points. Maybe it was a stall for time, a way to keep the main relationship in a particular place while other events played out, but it doesn't feel logical. It doesn't quite ring true, all together. The time line is tight, yes, but we gloss over entire weeks of events in the montage. The soul of this thing isn't there, and even the sense of the attraction falls flat without details, much less our HEA.
I never felt for him, because in our somewhat dry recital around current events, I'd just read where he set himself up for the relationship issue in a lot of levels-- his sense of betrayal never makes sense, and neither does his disappointment when, after a full on, harsh hissy fit, he can't figure out why someone won't fight for the relationship (he'd basically made it clear he didn't want them to, as it reads). But I don't know his friends, and the stalker mystery fails to add anything to the drama, especially since we spend so little real time with the characters that I only know he's friends with these people because he told me. It isn't like the end of her earlier books where I was cheering for Karim's happy ending or for Aaron's portion of the Coda as much as I was the main characters'. The one character I felt like I knew at all got the worst deal, and it never truly gelled why. Maybe in a longer draft of the narrative it made sense, but in this one… in this one I just wasn't cheering for the happy ending, or the way they got there from the romance novel standard turn. I wasn't even sure I felt like I read a happy ending, because I didn't know quite enough about the characters to feel sure this made sense for who they were and what they wanted… I just knew enough to have some doubts about that ending representing everything all worked out and the HEA I was told it was. In real life, if I'd known this guy, I'd have been very worried about him and these decisions.
This one just fell flat for me. At the end, I didn't flip back to the beginning and start rereading, which I did with the author's earlier works. Instead, I got stuck drafting a review in my head. Maybe it was the new publication team, but it doesn't feel quite like the earlier two books by this author. Many of the characters are only the roughest of sketches, and the slight thriller mystery stalker angle doesn't come into the story clearly enough; it almost feels like an afterthought, a justification for our meet cute and not a driver for the plot. The way the mystery works out feels like it was just slotted in, especially since we know so little about these people and their relationships and who they are that the betrayal doesn't feel like a betrayal, and it's hard to really feel the fear when our willfully ignorant MC doesn't even know about the events, so the stalker angle is just a sidebar when we're in Ryan's head.
I guess the summary for all this is simply that I don't see myself rereading it, and I didn't enjoy the experience enough to actually recommend it… but I didn't dislike it enough to say don't read it, you'll regret it, or anything like that. It was just ok, to me, and the way the last quarter went kind of ended my enjoyment well before the final page.

I did enjoy it though there were moments I think the angst ...
By It's About The Book
This was another angsty read. I seem to be picking them up more frequently lately. No idea why. I was drawn to the bodyguard and rock star angle of this book. I did enjoy it though there were moments I think the angst became a bit too much for me personally. I understood why it was there and the reasoning behind Ryan wanting to keep the secret but I also wanted to scream at him to just tell him! Samuel was WAY too perceptive to be duped for long.
Samuel needs a break. One without his body guards breathing down his neck. Just a chance at a little normal life. He has no idea that his security team has found notes from a stalker. So they secretly place a hired bodyguard to watch him under the pretense of being his new neighbor. Ryan, the secret bodyguard, likes Samuel. At first he is able to ignore all the flirting Samuel shamelessly does with him but the more time they spend together, the harder it is to resist the attraction. Feelings develop but Samuel has no idea the man he’s falling is being paid to be with him. Ryan falls just as hard but knows their time is limited because Samuel will eventually find out the truth. And Ryan will lose him. Just like everyone else he’s ever cared about.
Of course you know it’s all going to blow up at some point because romances don’t have big unresolved lies and the couple get their HEA. It would just feel wrong. Luckily for us the guys work it all out because I really liked the couple together. They were fun and sexy. I liked how they found something more with each other. Samuel found somebody to do everyday things with. Cook dinner and then watch movies cuddled up on the couch. Someone to be himself with. To give all of himself to. Ryan has a pretty dark history. He’s never really had a home. He lost his parents when he was young and moved around a lot. Being with Samuel is his first glimpse at something stable and constant. Someone to care for and who will care for him.
I couldn’t help but question Ryan being a young but capable merc bodyguard for hire because of the amount of screw ups he had in regards to his “job” protecting Samuel. There is a lot of history and confusion for Ryan and his feelings for Samuel so it mostly works. I just didn’t EVER see him as competent in his profession as a bodyguard. So the fact he’s guarding Samuel undercover worked in the forbidden love aspect of the story because it gave Ryan a reason to resist the attraction creating some good tension. I just couldn’t wrap my head around why Ryan would be the one chosen to guard a big rock star with a creepy stalker. His actions just didn’t fit the part.
This was a pretty good book. The love story was engaging. I definitely felt the chemistry and love building between Ryan and Samuel. In fact I enjoyed it enough the parts that weren’t so great for me didn’t matter much. I liked the stalker plot line even if it relied on a lot of questionable decisions made by characters. There’s some fun flirty banter between the MCs. I’ll definitely be checking out more from this author.
