Romantic suspense
In exchange for an honest review
Brighid is a hacker that is forced to work for this black ops team. But she is a good person and her hacking has been for good.
The team is a lot of oddballs that washed up together. I do like their quirks.
Raider is her handler, and big surprise, they will fall for each other when they go undercover. He washed up in this team since he slept with the wrong woman. Not his fault, she said she was single.
They are trying to take down a mafia guy. Brighid's dad used to work for him.
Shootouts, running, bad guys, drama, and a few funny moments. How these guys are still standing I do not know. This book really goes after them, they should all be in the hospital.
I did like it, but things progressed so fast. I wanted the take down off the baddie to be longer. He needed to be punished some more. I also feel asleep a few times so that might not have been the best thing since I never felt I had missed anything. It did not stand out as much as book 1.
Narration
I liked the narrator. He made the guys sound gruff and since they really were that fitted well. I did feel he had nice women voices too
Too quiet. A talented hacker who got caught; Brigid Banaghan is now forced to work with a secret deep ops unit. But she won't reveal any more to these renegade feds than she has to. Especially not to Raider Tanaka, her control freak of a bodyguard and handler. It's enough that his body is tensed for action and his heated gaze is always on her....
Too sharp. Raider knows there's more to his new assignment than he's been told. Why send a deadly agent of his experience to guard a computer genius - even a gorgeous, unpredictable, undisciplined one? But when Brigid's estranged father is named in an investigation into Boston's organized crime, Raider's mind switches onto high alert, just like his senses....
Too close. To clear her father's name, Brigid needs Raider's help. The unit's idea that she bring a straight-laced fed in as her "fiance" won't fly, though-not unless Raider can release his inner bad boy and become the rebel Brigid can't resist....
I always struggle with male narrators that do female voices, so it's nice to stumble across someone that does them well! Steve West/Shane East is one of my favorites. I'm happy this one was enjoyable! <3

My second series ;=D
DeleteI liked the first book better, too, but it was still great getting another story from this team of people. Glad the narration work is really good- I've been reading them, but might switch over.
ReplyDeleteAnd I would like to try reading, I haven't read a rom sup in ages! Only listened ;)
DeleteYeah, sometimes, I don't like reading books with non stop actions. It doesn't give me time to process what just happened.
ReplyDeleteI need time to process and breathe too
DeleteI've really liked several of her series, but haven't started this one yet.
