Face Value by R.J. Scott
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Beckett Jamieson’s life implodes when he discovers he was born into the very crime family he’s vowed to destroy. After a brutal attack leaves him temporarily blind, he’s sent to a remote Sanctuary safe house to recover—angry, broken, and burning with purpose. Enter Kayden Summers: doctor, operative, and reluctant babysitter. He’s used to patching up wounds, not navigating the emotional landmines of a man like Beckett—wounded, volatile, and far too compelling. What begins as friction soon simmers into something deeper, as snowbound isolation strips away their defenses. But with the Bullen family closing in and secrets surfacing, their fragile bond is tested by danger, betrayal, and the fear of losing what they never expected to find: each other.

I loved this romantic suspense steeped in identity, vulnerability, and the slow thaw of guarded hearts. I liked how Beckett’s blindness reshaped the power dynamic between them and how trust became the most dangerous risk of all. There was a lot of danger and drama that was then replaced by passion and feelings as their relationship solidified and became much more. Easy to read and understand. This was an MM story with mature content.
