Color Of Darkness is a fantastic romantic suspense by Desiree Holt. This is a quick read, perfect for those with limited reading time. Ms. Holt has provided readers with a well-written book populated with a phenomenal cast of characters. Gaby has visions and warned Phoenix when Dan was a target. Now she's being protected by former SEAL Ben. Ben and Gaby's story is loaded with drama, humor, sizzle, action and suspense. I loved reading Color Of Darkness and can't wait to read more from Desiree Holt. Color Of Darkness is part of the Phoenix Agency Series but can be read as a standalone. This is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.
Gaby has visions that cause her world to go dark and her body to double over. Escaped prisoner, Justin Harding, is after her. Ben Winters, a fellow agent at Phoenix, is to take her to a safe house and protect her. Will Harding find her? Will the lust she feels for Ben overflow?
I enjoyed this short story. I liked Gaby. She is stronger than she thinks. I liked when Ben came to the door and the levity he displays there. I also appreciated how quick he was to defend Gaby when necessary. I loved that they were able to be open about their feelings for each other. I look forward to reading more books in this series.
Desiree Holt never disappoints me, the color Of Darkness is everything I want in a romantic suspense book, I love the characters, passion, twists and turns, this one is a short read but so good!

Gaby is a woman who has psychic abilities, ones that indentifed a killer who has now escaped prison and is after her. Luckily she has Ben, an ex SEAL to protect her. But Gaby has a lot of feelings where he is concerned.

The characters are intriguing and it makes me want to go and read the rest of the Phoenix Agency series that this novella is a part of.
