Sean Knight, former Navy Seal, now owns a security firm. His firm has been hired to go to Afghanistan to grab a world renowned hacker. Things don't always go as planned ... especially when he finds a childhood friend being held hostage. Jess Wilander, an investigative reporter, goes undercover in order to find her sister, who was kidnapped by an Afghan warlord. Sean has to find a way to get his target, his old friend and her sister away to safety. But now there's another complication ... Sean is realizing that the one person he has always loved .. is Jess. But Jess doesn't trust him completely, but has no choice but to accept his help in finding her sister. It's a fast-paced, action-packed plot with page-turning excitement. The characters are cleverly drawn. The romance is steamy, spicy, titillating. WARNING: Graphic intimate moments. Many thanks to the author for the digital copy of this romantic suspense. Read and reviewed voluntarily, opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.

Quite a bumpy ride. There was plenty of action and suspense. I loved the reunion between Jess and Sean, and how they were honest with each other as well as protective. She was a little head strong but had a big heart. Her love for Pippa and the other women pushed her to take risks. Sean had his own past to deal with but it made him a stronger person. I enjoyed this couple, and I found this an interesting, read-to-the-last-page beginning to a series. I recommend it. I received a copy of this story through Enticing Journey Book Promotions, and this is my unsolicited review.

Wow, if this is the first book in this series, bring it on! Fantastic book! Non stop action, suspense and totally captivating. Had me so caught up in this story. I loved it! This is the kind of book I go for totally. Sean is part of a Security business sent to get Jess and her sister out. Jess went in acting like she is going to write an article on her sisters captor, in the hope to get her sister out. This book had a great back story for Sean and Jess plus also had chapters from Pippa's point of view which only added to the story. Great writing, great characters, and a suspenseful plot, what more could you ask for? Fantastic! I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
