Runaway Rule by Jenessa Fayeth
MY REVIEW: If you love romances with witty banter, plenty of heart-fluttering moments, and just the right amount of suspense, this one deserves a spot on your TBR🤍
This story hooked me from the very first chapter and never let go. The banter between the characters had me smiling the whole way through, and the romance was filled with so many moments that had me giggling and kicking my feet🥹✨
The suspense kept the pages turning, and I found myself saying, “Just one more chapter,” long past my bedtime. Every twist made it harder to put down.
And can we talk about the romance? The protective hero, the “my wife” moments, and the way he quietly yearned for her absolutely stole my heart 💕
This quickly became one of my favorite reads, and I already can’t wait to see what Jenessa writes next.

BLURB: Thea
I’m fine. Really.
My latest breakup? Not a big deal.
Which is why I still took the trip—the one where I was supposed to get engaged. Alone. Totally normal.
Getting mugged in Mexico? Also not a big deal. Sure, I can’t remember where I’m staying, but I’ll figure it out. I always do.
At least there’s a broody, mysterious stranger who says he’ll help me.
Problem is… I’m not sure he’s on my side—especially when our faces start showing up on the news for a crime we didn’t commit.
He’s guarded. Dangerous. And definitely hiding something.
But whatever secrets he’s keeping—and whatever trouble keeps finding us—I don’t have a choice.
If I want to make it home alive…I have to trust him.

I don’t fail missions. Ever.
So how did this one spiral so far out of control?
It was supposed to be easy. Get the drive and get out.
But my contact is gone. Enemies are closing in. And somehow, I’ve picked up a civilian who has no idea what she’s walked into.
Now Thea is my responsibility, and while getting her home safely should be simple, things only get worse around every turn.
She looks at me like I’m more than what I am. Like I’m someone worth trusting. Wanting.
I’m not.
I walked away from every relationship that mattered six years ago—and I’m not looking for another one.
But the longer this mission drags on, the harder it gets to remember why.
The mission has shifted. Get Thea home, before they catch us. But what if it’s not safe there either? How long will I have to protect her?
Runaway Rule is an light-hearted adventure romantic comedy full of mystery and chaos.
