Ian
Dunn has the world believing that he went rogue in a very big way by turning
his talents to the lawless life with con jobs and jewel heists. In reality the
former Navy SEAL and Special Ops warrior is leading a band of freelance
operatives that still fight for good by fighting in highly unofficial ways.
That makes Ian the perfect choice hands down for an operation that the
government needs done but can’t be attached to because of it being a breach of
a heavily guarded embassy. A couple of
children have been kidnapped by their father who is a sinister foreign national
that will do anything to get what he wants even if that is turning his own
children into casualties. Surprising everyone Ian turns the mission down for
reasons he refuses to divulge.
Phoebe
Kruger is Ian’s new attorney that refuses to take no for an answer. She is
determined to get the children free and is able to get Ian on board. She also
insists on riding shotgun with Ian on his Mission
Phoebe
is proving to have a knack for getting out of tight spots. What Ian and Phoebe
don’t count on is their intense attraction to each other. As the team gears up
to get done what needs to be taken care of Ian and Phoebe’s emotions grow
stronger. They need to control their feelings for each other if they want a
chance to survive a wealthy psychopath who loves both money and murder and a
mob boss that is very vindictive and he has Ian on the top of his hit list.
Playing lethal games of deception and dodging death squads Phoebe and Ian are
determined to save the innocent children and take care of the guilty.
This
is a book that starts off fast and doesn’t stop for anything. The action is
intense and engrossing and keeps the story moving along at a very fast pace.
With all the cons going on it keeps the reader enthralled and not wanting to
put it down for any reason. The characters are engaging and sympatric and help
the story come to life. With the twists and turns the story takes the reader is
never completely sure what will happen next or just where they will end up.
This one takes readers for a ride they will never forget. The secondary
characters play just as big a part as the hero and heroine and this one does
not disappoint. It will also have readers eagerly waiting to see just where
this series will end up going.
I
give this one 5 red roses
