This was a pretty good read for me although I do think I would have enjoyed it even more if I had read the prior books in the series. The writing is excellent, the characters are well done and likeable for the most part. There is a steamy romance between Caleb and Francesca with a bit of mystery and suspense thrown. The story takes lots of twists and turns which keep you on the edge of your seat. Definitely one I will be recommending.

LOVED!!! Wow, just, wow! This book grabbed my attention from the first page and kept it until the very last page. This began with Caleb, an undercover FBI agent, trying to make a deal with a criminal mastermind in an effort to take down his organization. As part of Caleb's undercover persona, he begins flirting with the tyrant's daughter, Francesca. Before long, their attraction sparks between them, adding another level of complexity to Caleb's undercover operation. This captivating novel has twists and turns far beyond a typical romantic suspense....I couldn't see the hidden elements until the author revealed them....keeping me guessing throughout the novel. If you are looking for a substantial book that will make you care about the characters and guessing until the very end, you have found it in this novel. This is a must read for fans of the genre. While this is part of a series, it is a stand alone book. The author is on my must read authors' list.
