Angela Weaver writes a story that makes any single women wonder if her prince charming will show up dressed in all black with a Glock 45 tucked safely on his back. The story tells of a young woman who's on the run from her fiancé after seeing something so deadly that she wasn't sure she could trust herself but when her father comes to her rescue she isn't sure what she should have done and what needs to be done. When the bodyguard of her father's choice steps in all hell will break loose before a resemblance of love falls into place.

Gabriella isn't interested in everyone running her life especially the men who have managed to make their selves her protector so when she finds herself with a bodyguard who's too handsome for words she does everything she knows to keep her cool but when the heat gets turned up and mutual attraction is noticed there is nothing that can be done to turn down the fan fare. Darius knew that mixing business with pleasure wasn't cool but there was very little he could do to not fall for Gabriella so when he finds himself falling deeply he does what he knows best confronts it but it only leads to things getting heated even worse than before. When the reason for Darius being in Gabriella's life starts to unbear itself the two of them find their selves on the run and also find their selves denying their unforgiving love for one another but will time give them their change or will vengeance find them first.

Angela writes the tale showing a woman letting go of her fear of everyone wanting control of her life and a man with a mission to not fall in love but only to have the complete opposite when it all happens but like the saying says opposites attract.

This was the first book I have read by this author and I was not disappointed. I kept finding myself wanting to skip ahead just so I could see what happened next. I loved the romance and the suspense, it was a great mix. Made for a wonderful story. I look forward to other stories from thia author.

Blind Obsession, a novel by Angela Weaver, deals with deception, intrigue and undying love.

Gabriella Marie, was a professional flautist, lived abroad with her fiancé when she discovered that he was not the man that she thought him to be. This discovery took place as she watched her fiancés brother torture and murder two men, while her loving fiancé stood there watching. After witnessing such a heinous crime, Gabriella fled in fear of her life to a father that she had not spoken to in years.

Darius Yassoud, a military Special Forces operative, agrees to help his uncle honor a request from a dear friend Sebastian, with whom he credits for his start in business. This favor included as bodyguard for Sebastian's daughter and protecting her from the fiancé that she is fleeing. This elaborate protection scheme lands them in New York, living undercover with the best surveillance and resources that money can buy. The only thing is that the fiancé and his brother will go to any lengths to locate Gabriella. The fiancé wants her back and his brother wants her dead. Out of a need for safety and for Darius' need to keep her safe, they both act on the strong attraction for one another and it eventually turns into love.

I found in reading this novel that it started slowly, However, once it picked up, it really took off. It provided the reader with the basics one looks for in a romance novel; which is romance. In the same token, it provided intrigue and suspense. Ms. Weaver does quite well at weaving this story and before you know it, you've been absorbed into the tale.
