~Blog Tour & Review: It's Always Been You by Victoria Paige~

“I’ll wait forever, sunshine. I loved you then. I love you now. I’ll always love you.”




Former Navy SEAL Travis Blake is a rising star in the security business. In two short years, Blake Security Inc. has become highly sought after by the who’s who in Washington DC.


But unbeknownst to many, Travis is haunted by the mysterious death of his wife three years before. He carries with him the guilt of not being there to protect the one person who meant everything to him. He has buried his wife, but his heart refuses to accept that the body six feet under is hers. His obsessive search for her leads him deep into the trenches of covert ops—and everything is not what it seems.


Caitlin Kincaid has been on the run for a while. The sum of her memories began three years ago when she awakened with a broken arm and leg and a severe concussion. Hunted down by a secret group within the U.S. government, her companion persuades her to stay off the grid because of the standing kill order on their heads. One night, while fleeing assassins, she is left on the side of the road with a cryptic message: “It’s time for you to stop running. I’m not the one you love.”


When Travis receives news that the woman who has turned up at the American Embassy in Berlin could be his wife, he wastes no time getting to her. He is unprepared for the devastation that shreds him when Caitlin looks at him with no recognition in her eyes. Amnesia is a challenging enough obstacle for winning the love of his life back. But with lies defining the past three years of her life, Caitlin becomes wary of anyone’s help.


Love was never the problem. A marriage cannot survive without trust. As sinister forces threaten the bond they are trying to rebuild, trust must come quickly or one of them will die.


* Strong sexual content and language. Disturbing situations.

Meet Victoria Paige


I work as a freelance database administrator, and when I’m not geeking out, I write romantic suspense novels. I live in Richmond, Va—less than two hours away from Washington DC—so most of the settings of my books are in the nation’s capital—of course, I’m not averse to creating fictional towns and cities. ;)


When I’m not arguing with the alpha male characters in my head, I love to watch high-octane action movies. I think Jack Bauer is the shit, which is why most of my characters are such badasses bent on saving the world from evil doers.


I love reading adult contemporary, paranormal, urban fantasy, historical, romantic suspense, and a few new adult fiction as well as military non-fiction.

Review
Overall Rating:  4.5 Rockin’ ★★★★☆
Three years ago his whole world ended!  Travis Blake was a member of an elite SEAL team that ran special ops for the government.  He had met and fallen in love with a beautiful woman named Sarah.  She became his wife, everything was wonderful until after returning from a mission when he was told that his wife had been killed in an accident.  

Caitlin Kincaid was so tired of running.  Her best friend and lover had protected her for the last three years as they tried to stay one step ahead of the agency that wanted them dead.  She could remember nothing of her previous life except for the last three years. Caitlin did know that they were members of an elite CIA Force known as specter agents and that the government had disavowed them.  It had finally reached the point where there was nowhere else to run, it was only a matter of time before they would be captured and killed.  When Jase was wounded in a gunfight, he left her and told her to go to the embassy and turn herself in and she would be safe.  His last words to her made no sense, “I’m not the one you love”.  

Travis Blake had never given up on finding his wife.  He did not believe that she really died in the car accident.  Everyone thought he was crazy but he could not let go of the feeling that Sarah was still alive.  Travis received a message that Sarah had been found and was at the American Embassy in Berlin.  He called in a favor from his mentor Admiral Porter to help him get her out of there and home. It seems that he is not the only one that wants Sarah.  The CIA and the Russian Mafia want the information that she has locked away in her mind.  It will be a fight to keep her safe and at the same time prove to her that she is his wife Sarah.  She thinks she is Caitlin Kincaid and does not remember who he is.  

Travis learns that the CIA had used an experimental drug on Sarah and the effects of the drug turn her into a berserker! Will Travis find a way to heal his wife?  Will she believe him when he tells her he loves her and she loves him?  Can he convince her that they are really husband and wife? There are plots within plots with unexpected twist all through this book that will keep the reader on edge until the end.  

Hero: 4.5 stars
Heroine:  4.5 stars
Plot:  4.5 stars
Steam Level: 4.5 stars
Cliffhanger:  No

Would I recommend this book: Yes. This is an amazing book with everything a reader could possibly want in a great read!  True love, lust, hot sex, intrigue and betrayal from unlikely sources fill this book with outstanding action.  Read this book and you will not be disappointed. 

Would I recommend this author: Yes.  Fantastic writing and amazing story lines that engage readers show that this is an author that should be on everyone's must read list!
