Officer Nathan Cox lived by two simple rules: You don’t hurt women and you don’t mess with married ones.

A confirmed bachelor, he avoided complications at all costs. Until complications walked through the door in the form of Vanessa Harper. Beautiful, vulnerable…and married.

With her husband out on bail for attempting to murder her, Vanessa needed an ally that she could trust. Can she rely on Nathan or will he be like her husband?

Sparks ignite and emotions run high with Nathan’s need to protect her, but will he walk away or break his cardinal rule?

This book is intended for a mature audience (18+) due to language and adult situations.

I’m Savannah Maris, a southern girl and hopeless romantic. I’m passionate about writing stories that incorporate southern charm with a little spice.

I grew up on a farm in a small southern town with a love of sports, dance, and music which usually find their way into my books. My husband and I have two grown children. When I'm not writing, my husband and I are attending sporting events, traveling, or working.

What will find in my books? You'll find suspense and romance in the Riverton Crossing Series. If contemporary romance is what you're looking for, try Crossroads of the Heart.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nathan the protector

Great story of Vanessa, getting out of a super abusive relationship and finding first friendship and then more with Nathan. Vanessa is by far a very strong woman to have endured what she did. The mental and physical abuse she endured was horrible to read, but the reality for some. Nathan was an alpha character. He is sweet, respectful, but don’t tick him off. He will do anything to protect his Ness. Love the characters in this story and series. Enjoy continuing to hear about previous characters from early in series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Oh, Nathan. Where have you been?
Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2018
OMG, this book will knock you off your feet. Here is a couple that has a hard road in front of them at first but works together to find the happy ending.

Nathan is a guy that wants to do right by Vanessa and helps her out of a bad relationship. He was very carrying and trying to do things by the book to keep Vanessa safe. I felt that he did do things over the top to keep her safe but she needed to feel that from him.

Vanessa is a shy woman in a very bad relationship who was afraid of her husband and didn’t know how to get away from him. Nathan stepped in the picture and show her how it could be to be loved just by doing little things to show he cared. Nathan gave her the courage to believe in herself and in doing that you got to see the real woman Vanessa always wanted to be. Vanessa stood up to her ex and the mistress, which showed how strong she became.

4.0 out of 5 stars Someone to love you right
Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2022
Ok, so my mistake was not reading the other books in the series before this one. I think it could still be a standalone, but I felt like I had walked into the middle of a conversation and had no idea what was going on. This is just a mention and I'm not holding it against the author or story.

Early on it's mentioned that Nathan has feelings for Vanessa. However, she is married and he is the officer in charge of finding out what is going on with Vanessa and her husband. I loved that he was finding ways to protect her and yet keep the two from crossing a line before the right time. He definitely was an alpha and hard headed. I did kind of agree that he came on a little too strong considering Vanessa's past, but I think much of it had to do with his own protection. I thought this was a sweet story about finding someone who will treat you right with a little suspense added in.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally!! The story I've been waiting for!

Finally!!!!!! Nathan and Vanessa’s story is upon us. This is the story that I have been waiting on since I first met Nathan in a previous Riverton Crossing book. Vanessa was trapped in a loveless and abusive marriage until Nathan comes to her rescue. Swoon!

What I loved about the story is that it picked up where the last story left off. There was a mix of past meets present with flashbacks, and that definitely enhanced the story. The plot was amazing. The chemistry and sexual tension between Nathan and Vanessa is HOT!! There was great character development. I like how the villains in the story were not romanticized or magically redeemed.

The dialogue flowed easily. The story was easy to follow. I will definitely recommend this story to others.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good mix of danger, romance & drama
Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2018
YES! Unbridled Passion is the book I've been waiting for since Nathan first laid eyes on Vanessa. Savannah Maris delivered a good mix of danger, romance and drama.

I liked Vanessa so much. And the more I learned about her and the set-up that altered the course of her future, the more I wanted to warp her up and tell her it would all be ok. The level of scheming and underhandedness she endured made me more than itchy. Nathan too. There was something about the shy librarian that he was pulled to. That he couldn't escape, even when he knew he had to. Until he didn't.

Anticipation was the name of the game with these two. I knew it was going to happen eventually and it was so worth the wait. While there was some back and forth from both parties, there was absolutely no denying their connection. It was more than physical. It was more than Nathan's need to protect. It was love like neither had ever known. And it was so sweet to watch them fall.

But Vanessa's past just couldn't seem to let her go. As as more and more of the horrors she endured were brought to light, the more Nathan worked to get to the bottom of the mess. It was an unexpected twist at just who was pulling all the strings am I am so glad that person got theirs.

My favorite thing about this addition to the Riverton Crossing series was how much Vanessa grew. It was more than leaps and bounds. She lived for the first time and it was Nathan at her side that gave her the courage to do it. And just as with every other title I've read from Savannah Maris, there were hints of what the next book in the series will focus on and my interest is more than piqued.

4.0 out of 5 stars Quiet librarian Vanessa and hot cop Nathan will settle for nothing less than her happiness!
Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2018
Of the 5 books in the series, Unbridled Passion is by far my favorite. Even though each book in the Riverton Crossing series stand alone focusing on one couple, I recommend reading in order due to the characters reappearing throughout the series and appearing in each of the books. Unbridled Passion focuses on my favorite policeman Nathan Cox and the sweetest librarian Vanessa Harper. Near the end of Uninvited Visitors, Vanessa was assaulted by her husband and has since filed for divorce with the help of Nathan. When you read this story you are going to get the history behind Nathan and Vanessa's lives and why they have made the choices that they did that led them to each other. That's what I loved most about this book and if you think that I am going to give away any secrets then you are wrong! My recommendation is to read the other books in the series before this releases and then pick it up immediately! It's told from dual POV and it's got it all, suspense, romance, action and some heat too!
