I’ve only read one of the other books in this series, but these can easily be read as stand alones or out of order. The level of romantic suspense is just right in this one, keeping the story moving at a steady pace throughout the whole book. There were definitely moments that kept me hanging on by a thread. Kelly was hard to like for some of the book, but as she evolved and learned more, as well as developed her relationship with Hunter. Some romantic suspense focus more on the suspense, but this one had a great romance as well as a dynamite suspense plot line.

Juno Rushdan draws from real-life inspiration as a former U.S. Air Force Intelligence Officer to craft sizzling romantic thrillers. However, you won’t find any classified leaks here. Her stories are pure fiction about kick-ass heroes and strong heroines fighting for their lives as well as their happily-ever-after.

Happy reading!
