by E.M. Shue (Author), Nadine Winningham (Editor) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 out of 5 stars 295 ratings
The 2018 Beverley Award winner for Romantic Suspense.
Police sniper Maya Aaron finds herself in the crosshairs of not just one but two madmen. One sends her flowers with secret meanings, the other? He’ll stop at nothing to control her, including framing her for murder.

When Maya gives in to former British SAS Officer Duncan’s dominant desires, her stalkers find out and set their sights on destroying him and her friends.

Maya decides to come out of the shadows, guns blazing, removing her stalker problems once and for all. Can she have a life she never dared dream of and keep everyone safe? When the smoke clears will she have a chance with the man who ignites her soul?

This is a hot and steamy mystery suspense with twists, turns, action, and a happily for now.

    This is a saga series - answers and resolution are not found within this book.
    An intriguing web of family and friends, killers and coworkers. Two continents and many military and protection angles. I really enjoyed this fast paced romantic mystery. I was constantly guessing and revising my hypotheses. A sniper heroine was a really cool aspect. I really liked learning some things about that profession and the opportunities. This was a steamy romance.

    This is the first time reading this author, but most certainly not the last! I was hooked from the first chapter. It held my attention and curiosity, it made my mind try to figure out what was going on. It didn’t hurt that my boyfriend is British and when I read Duncan, I heard his voice 😂

    Now, have to go get book two, I can’t not know what’s going to happen next! Splendid writing.

    Such a good read. Maya is a fierce and independent female character with skills and heart. Duncan is an ex military man and also Maya's best friend's brother. Maya has some dangerous secrets that she keeps, to keep those around her safe. This book has danger, excitement, and lots of steam. Can't wait for the next story in this series to see what happens and visit the characters again.

    This was a good book and i was so looking forward to Maya being all kick butt, but not onlu was i dissapointed with the ending and to many sex scenes that were exactly alike. Duncan was constantly jealous of any man even looking at Maya and very angry, he also was constantly trying to protect her all the time which is nice but if youve read the discription you will see that she doseent need the constant protection hes pushing on her. I hate jealousy, if he cant trust his best friends or her its rediculous. Jealousy is the quickest way to ruin a relationship. I bought all the books in the series at once, i really hope the sex and jealousy do not continue.

    3.0 out of 5 stars A Suspense-Filled Adventure
    Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2020
    This premise of The Sniper's Kiss is instantly intriguing. Who doesn't love a strong heroine who possesses skills to take care of herself and those she loves? I loved Maya Aaron, her confidence, and her bold spirit. I also like Duncan Preston, the hero of the story and the cast of supporting characters included in this book.

    The storyline is action-packed and quite suspenseful. The details of sniper/ERT protocol were interesting to read and learn about. The international setting between Washington D.C. and London made for an exciting background to this power-packed book.

    This being said, I had very high expectations when reading this novel. While I was interested in finding out how things unraveled and resolved, I had difficulty getting through some plot inconsistencies, the way in which some things were so over-the-top, repetition of wording, dialogue choices, and the sheer length of the book. All things considered, I did not expect to have unresolved plot issues when I finished reading a book containing 45 chapters. I would love to have this story edited more thoroughly so it could streamline into the powerful book it has it has the potential to be.

    I will probably read the other stories in this series because I truly liked the characters and their interactions, as well as the subject matter. I found it entertaining and I need to find out how these characters move into the future with each other.

    I love romantic suspense and this book met all my expectations and then some!

    This is the first book I've read by this author and it certainly won't be the last. I've already bought the next book in this series and can't wait to read Angel's Kiss. This is one amazing series that sucks you in to the story so deeply that you forget the world around you. The characters feel like family and old friends. I loved every part from the mystery to the romance to the action filled plot. Steamy and the perfect romance, Sniper's Kiss will burn up your kindle and leave you breathless for more.

    I actually can't believe this book is written by a first-time author. Reads like a seasoned author wrote the novel. Well-written, sexy, smart, and full of action - don't miss this one! Highly recommended. 5 stars for me!

    Unbelievable book, so well written. There were so many characters I wasn’t sure who the bad guy was. Spoiler alert didn’t really find out. There were so many twists and turns. Duncan and Maya each learned to trust again and found they did have lots of family even though they weren’t bloody related. Lots of sub characters and stories. Throughly enjoyed.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 27, 2023

    This is a book not to be missed.
    Maya is used to being on her own. She has stalkers (plural) so prefers to stay on her own rather than lose anyone she loves.
    There is an instant attraction and connection when she first meets Duncan but can she let him in?
    Duncan will do anything to have Maya in his life but when danger comes their way is anyone safe.
    So much drama and suspense with plenty of emotion but also so much love.
    A must read.
    I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Best of both worlds
    Reviewed in Canada on January 23, 2018
    Verified Purchase
    The Sniper's Kiss has got the best of both worlds: it's action-packed and sexy! Personally, I especially appreciated the character of Maya for being such a headstrong leading lady who doesn't hesitate to go after what she wants, and I couldn't help falling in love with the character of Ana, since I found her and her story so interesting.
    My only issues with the story were mostly with the pacing. Some scenes felt too rushed in my opinion.
    But, overall, this author packs a punch and you better get ready!
